DIY Wooden Halloween Boo Blocks
Supplies:
- 3 Wooden blocks approximately 4-5″ x 4-5″. We made our block bigger than the blocks – your choice on the size.
- Paint
- Sandpaper
- Pen or pencil
- 3 pieces of coordinating scrapbook paper
- Scissors
- Mod Podge
- Medium size foam brush
- Stick on or stenciled letters
- Decorations like ribbons, Halloween stickers or other Halloween goodies
- Polycrylic if using outdoors.
Directions:
Steps 1 & 2
Sand and paint your blocks. We bought a piece of wood from the hardware store and had them cut down. These will need to be sanded before you paint them. We used purple spray paint, but you can use any paint you like. Allow the paint to dry completely.
Steps 3 & 4
Using the blocks as a guide, trace the block on the backside of the scrapbook paper. Cut along the lines. Repeat for each block.
Step 5
Cover paper with Mod Podge, place on the face of the block and press down and smooth out. Repeat for each block. Allow to dry completely.
Steps 6 & 7
Apply letter to block and brush over the entire surface with Mod Podge. Repeat with other blocks.
Step 8
Allow to dry completely.
Step 9
Decorate blocks with ribbons, stickers, etc..
Place in your home and enjoy! If you are going to place outside, seal with polycrylic or similar sealer.
