Photo Block puzzles




Here is a little project I've been working on. It started with blank wooden blocks (12), and some greeting cards I couldn't throw away from years past. I stuck with a basic nativity theme for the picture selection. The boys painted the blocks with modgepodge. The trick was aligning the pieces so when the large block was all together the separate puzzles all made pictures. Each block was 2"X2" so the cutting wasn't hard. A little tedious to finish and messy with the extra help, but its fun to set up different pictures on the coffee table. I'm thinking about distressing/antiquing the block edges, should I?
