DIY Photo Blocks

March 9, 2015 by spencerthegoldendoodle 26 Comments

 
With a little muscle and a delicate paw you too can make one of a kind photo blocks. This is a great project to make with your kids, for a gift or a great way to display multiple photos. Here is what you need and the steps to take to make your own photo blocks.

Supplies
3 4×4 Wooden Blocks
Sander/Sand Paper
Paint
Paint Brush
Mod Podge (Glossy)
Photos

Directions:
* With help from my humans, they went to Home Depot and had them cut three 4×4 blocks of wood.
*Once home we sanded down all the surfaces, corners and edges of the blocks.
*Using white wash colored paint I put about 3 or 4 coats of paint on each block. The wood soaked the paint up so fast. You apply as much or as little as you please.
*Next I went through a stack of photos and picked out my favorite ones. As you can see I tore the photos to give it a ruff look. You can cut, rip, or tear them.
*Finally, I brushed glossy Mod Podge on the bottom a photo and placed it on one of the sides. Pressing it firmly to the block making sure I got all the air bubbles out. Then, I took the Mod Podge and brushed a thin layer over the photo and the entire side of the block. This will help secure the photo to the block.

There you have it, simple and fun DIY Photo Blocks!

    Well, that sounds like a fun project! I wonder if Ma's hands would be steady enough to not make the blocks a complete mess.
