Gratitude Blocks




I had so much fun making these blocks. I wanted to show every one how cute they turned out. I didn't realize "Gratitude" was such a long word, but "Autumn" or "Fall" or "Harvest" didn't capture the message that I wanted. I love to look at these and realize all of the things that I have to be grateful for. (Some days I need a reminder...) I see cute things like this and figured it would be pretty easy to make. Thanks for your help Billie, I would have been sanding forever. (She knows how to use cool tools) Anyway, I thought this was a fun and simple idea and love to look at my finished product.

I LOVE them!!! I would love to copy them (probably won't happen anytime soon, but it's a great idea to file away). I could use a reminder to be grateful for all I have too. How did you do the lettering? Did you paint or use vinyl lettering? Thanks for sharing!

My mother in law saw the card you made tonight and called it "gorgeous." She really did Am, see you are so creative!
