Вставка
- Опубліковано 8 жов 2024
- In today's video I've taken a container of old vintage alphabet blocks and challenged myself to create 5 upcycled projects with them! It was so fun and I came up with so many more but wanted to use the supplies I had at home.
Have you used old blocks in any of your projects?
I hope you enjoyed today's video, and I can't wait to hear what's your favorite flip!

The brick blocks would be adorable with a small Santa on top. I had those same blocks for my kids. Dil got rid of them😢
That’s a great idea Terri! 😊
Love the Christmas tree sign
Thank you Brandy!😊
I love that you did these because I can't spell words with mine. Now I have other ideas to do! I need to make with what I have as well! Thanks for the inspiration!
You’re welcome Vicky! Have fun creating! 😊
Great use of wood blocks. I appreciate inspiration to use up what I've got.
Thank you Blanche!😊

Adding the background to the tree block made a big difference. It looks great.
I agree Sue! I loved how it turned out. 😊

Very inspiring. Now just for the time to get them done.
My visions in my head are usually different than what I create!
I completely understand Donna!😊
loved all five projects!
Thanks Tamy! 😊
Excellent
Thanks Christie! 😊
These are the cutest projects; you have such creativity Sonnet. What a lovely group of Christmas cheer!
Thank you so much!😊
I absolutely love all these, I also did that with some blocks but need more to spell for each holiday. I made the word vintage with the blocks and keep it up all year. 🎅🎄😍 I love mixed media as well!!
I so understand needing to use stashed items. As much fun as thrifting is, like it brings out the hunter in me, I do need to recognize that I have very little space. So in order to move on, I have to use what I have. I'm envious of your block treasure, they're so cool.
Thank you Lynn. It’s just that time of year to clear out the old and bring in some new later! 😊
I have many blocks just like those. Time to get them out. TFS
Thank you Cheryl! Have fun! 😊
Great job Sonnet!
Thank you Patrice!😊
I love everything ❤️
Loved the Merry Christmas blocks. I'd done a project where I had to paint one of the letters a different color so I wouldn't have a duplicate, and you can't even tell.
Thanks Michele! That’s a great idea! 😊
I love the blocks!
Awe thank you!😊
I love the block tree so much; I am making myself one.
That’s great Cathy! 😊
BEAUTIFUL
Thank you Jane! 😊
Nice work! Good ideas!
Thank you Heidi! 😊
What a great Diy's these are i have so many blocks I got some at Columbus antique store my sister and I are always finding great things from there.
Thanks Jill!😊
Ya get that PV (Xmas tree) covered quick, reminding me of work (Parole Violation) 🥴
Hi Sonnet! I like the way you outlined the letters on the HoHoHo set of blocks. Might the Jolly and Holly also look good that way?
Hi Gina! I wanted to showcase both ways to give everyone the opportunity to see how each one looks. I do like the outlined one too. 😊
I thought those gold blocks would be cute as snowmen. Just white.
I love that idea! 😊
Sonnet I hate neutrals, I Hated you painted those blue Blocks, I Love all the Blues, it saddens me, that people are so obsessed with Greens, But I absolutely hate the Color of Green, But I still think you do a great Job, but I do wish you would add Blue and Peach Colors,
Hi Sarah. I typically use a variety of different colors in my projects, which is why I stated that I was going to do neutrals for my audience that prefers those colors. That is the beauty of paint though, you can make it any color that suits your style. I am here to inspire and give you all ideas on how to make fun and creative projects. You get to paint whatever color that makes you happy. 😊
To me Neutral is so Boring, I am sorry, but you want our honest opinion,
