Nativity Blocks

I started these last year but got sick of sanding them so I never finished.  I love the finished product!!  I think the next time I decide to do a project like this I should start with one set...not four!  The best part of this project is that is was basically free.  We found the wood at a construction site in the dumpster and I already had the paint and modge podge.  I have seen these done with Me and My Big Ideas Nativity Stickers but they don't make those stickers anymore.  I was so happy when my friend found this artwork for the blocks!  I had been talking about these blocks for quite some time and was so disappointed that I couldn't find the stickers anymore.  I love having kid friendly nativity sets so my kids can play with them during the Christmas season.  They are loving that I gave them each a set to keep in their room.

My favorite is the yellow set because I printed that one on an overhead transparency...I think it looks way better than the ones on white cardstock.

  1. Love it!! I realized after asking my kids what Christmas is all about, that they need something a little more tangible to hit it home. These are perfect! Makes me want to finish pulling all my Christmas stuff out of the attic!!
