Wood Blocks Craft

Hello, everyone!  

I’m Ginger from Ginger Snap Craftsand, let me tell YOU, I am so excited to be at Lil’ Luna today.  

Kristyn is an amazingly talented lady, LOVE, LOVE, LOVE her blog, & I am truly honored to be here!  Yay!  

Over on my blog, I LOVE sharing cute, simple & easy crafts.  

When you see one of my projects, I want you to say, “Yes! I can do that (& I can do it even better!)” ;)  

I hope to share fun ideas that inspire YOU to create along with me. 

Wood Blocks Craft! This tutorial shows you how you can make so many words using only 7 blocks! { lilluna.com }

 Today I’d love to show you how to make 

these super fun & versatile

blocks {that say a lot}.

From these 7 blocks with 4 letters on each one

you can make 15+ seasonal words!!

(I originally got the idea to make these from here.)

You’ll need the following supplies:

a 4×4 cut into 7 square blocks

(You can buy 4×4′s at

Home Depot or Lowes.)

paint & paint brushes

sand paper

*vinyl lettering

*For my vinyl lettering I used a few of my favorite fonts.

I wanted my blocks to be mismatched & kind of fun. :)

FYI: I used a different font on each block.

Fonts I used:

cafe rojo, hula skirt, ck chemistry, elise,

fontmoochers, high tower text, impervious

(All these fonts are free, 

just search for them online 

& they should be really easy to find.)

I slightly sanded my blocks, 

and then I painted them.  

FYI: I also painted each block a different color.

Thought they’d look cute like that. :)

Then I let the paint dry, 

and then I applied the vinyl lettering.

For more detailed vinyl lettering instructions you can go here.

BLOCK 1- H, Y, E, D
BLOCK 2- A, C, R, S
BLOCK 3- R, P, E, T
BLOCK 4- V, N, L, O
BLOCK 5- E, O, M, D 
BLOCK 6- S, M, K, I
BLOCK 7- T, F, B, W 

That’s it!  Super cute & easy! :)

Here are some of the words you can spell:

Family

Blessed

Snow

Home

Harvest

Spooky

Winter

Mother

Dream

Easter 

Freedom 

Welcome

Friends

Faith

Hope

Monster

Can you think of any others??? :)

Pop over to my blog today, 

& I’ll be sharing the tutorial on how to 

make this easy {established block} 

to go along with my new seasonal blocks.  

They look really cute together! :)

Thank you so much for having me over, Kristyn!

    Where do you get vinyl letters? do you make them yourself of buy them…any store suggestions?

  9. 14

    I am wondering what size the letters are? I love this and can’t wait to try it.

  10. 15

    Do you know of a place that will custom make the vinyl lettering for you?

    My sister and I just did these block this weekend. We loved them. Thank you so much!

  12. 17

    So what size do the blocks turn out to be when finished? They’re really cute!

    I made the blocks last night and mod podged letters on the blocks. I really like the vinyl letters and am looking at a cricut, I like how the mod podged letters came out for my first set. love the idea and all the words I can make with them.

    Out of curiosity, is there a reason that you only put the letters on 4 of the 6 faces of the blocks? Thanks!
