Step 1 – Get busy painting all of your embellishments and let dry. Then paint your blocks in Cranberry and 2 x Raw Silk. Distress to your liking and then wax to seal.
Step 2 – Using your glue gun attach the embellishments to your blocks. Then using your small letter stamps, stamp on the words “Snow” and “Joy” onto the Snowflake block and the bauble block. Let Dry. Then on the last block using your painter’s tape make 3 lines to create a grain sack. Then using your foam wedge pounce to block in.

Your Farmhouse blocks are adorable with a capital “A”, Sam! Who wouldn’t love receiving these for a gift? I’d be jumping for joy! Pinned 🙂
Thank you so much, Marie!! If you lived closer I’d make you a set for sure!!
These are so fun. And they’d be a good one to make at a December craft night. Even the non-crafty would be able to make them.
For sure! What a great idea!
I love these colors. Such a cute and easy craft!
Aren’t they just yummy Rachel!! Thank you for your kind words!
I love your signs! They are adorable and I like the added wooden decor.
Thank you so much, Jenny!
Those are real cute Sam. Love the happy vintage red color you used.
Thank you so much, Michelle! Cranberry sure is a wonderful colour to use at this time of the year!
Hubs likes the red truck theme, so I got him one this year. Wouldn’t these blocks look perfect “hauling” in the back of his truck? Thanks for the ideas.
Awwww what a cute idea Leanna!!! Love that idea!!
These are so cute! Is it selfish to say that I would probably keep them for myself?!
No way not at all Cherryl!! 😉
Those are super cute and easy too. Love it!
Thank you so very much, Larissa! Hope you and your family had a wonderful Christmas and New Year.
Great idea Sam! Love these
Thank you so much, Deborah!
