DIY Build Cornhole Boards – My First Experience With Unicorn Spit!
How I built cornhole boards and stained them with unicorn spit. I’ve been meaning to build some yard games for family gatherings, parties and birthdays held at my place. My best friend’s husband was turning 40 in November and we threw him a surprise birthday party in October. Why a month before his birthday? Because this is Minnesota and we didn’t want to be outside standing in a foot of snow and freezing to death lol And I don’t have a house big enough to really accommodate 100 people!
This was the perfect opportunity for me to stop procrastinating and get my boards built. I stopped at my local lumber yard and picked up three 2x4s and half a sheet of 1/2″ plywood.
Enjoyed the project?
Suggested materials:
- 2x4s (Local Lumber Yar)
- 1/2" plywood (Local Lumber Yar)
- Unicorn spit (Amazon)
- Polyurethane (Amazon)

I’ve been looking for simple plans for a cornhole board. I wish you had some pictures of the underside. I’m not sure how the stacking looks. But I haven’t gotten on to your blog post yet. I’m glad you liked Unicorn SPiT. And you can use it inside, too. Thank you for another great project. ☺️
