How can I make some wooden blocks (4" x 4") that you stencil
I found this in an old cross stitch book & so regret I didn't ever get around to making them. They are the most darling looking blocks ever. You "antique" them w/ burnt umber (tube oil paint artists use) & then stencil each side w/ old fashioned letters, apples, & etc. in country looking colors. I'd be happy to share these stencils & the complete directions for any info on these blocks. Don't tell but I'd love to just buy them!

Amazon sells them very inexpensively!
Feed a 4 x 4 thru a table saw. Keep in mind wood in not what it is called. It is actually3 1/2" so make you cuts that size.
If you don't have a saw to cut down a 4x4 piece of lumber you can purchase them on Amazon https://amzn.to/2ZWFrx1
