Description:

In this swap, let's recycle some wood and create Recycled Wood Blocks. Kind of like a Chunky ATC, or decorated piece of wood, but the size could be a little bigger or smaller. You can make your wood pieces 2.5 x 3.5 or 2 x 4 or anything in betweeen 2in-3in x 3in-5in inches. Basically a small wood block, that you then decorate for your partner.
You can then decorate it in any fashion you like, using any materials but it needs to be nicely made. You could even make a roof and make a little house, or add feet, or decorate it like you would an ATC. You can Not put a sticker and some ric rac on the block and send that as finished. Do your best work.

This month: Wood Blocks with tops. This month your wood block must have something on the top of it that is 3D (meaning more then a sticker) Please look at the examples that have something on top of them.

Here are the google images for Chunky ATC.

If there is interest, we can do this with a monthly theme..what do you think? and if you like, what themes would you like? These are great because they can stand on their own and be displayed.

USA only due to size. Please have a filled out profile and no recent unexplained low ratings.

This will be my first attempt. If it goes well, I would enjoy others. Wish me luck, I'm excited!

Good Luck. These are fun to make, and easy to display.

Just had my husband cut the block yesterday so I'm ready to join in. I hope I do well!

Doh! I almost forgot to join.

Glad to see there is interest in these so we can do them more often. They can be addictive and look so cool on a shelf.
