Alphabet Blocks

My daughter loves alphabet games, so I decided to repurpose some old Jenga blocks to make her a new game.

Supply list:
Scrapbook paper or designs printed on paper (see dryicons.com or allvectors.com for free designs.)
Wooden pieces of idential size
Scissors or cutting board
Small foam brush
Mod Podge glue -- matte or glossy
Sandpaper
Mod Podge sealent -- matte or glossy
  
Instructions:
Cut paper design to fit block size (Jenga blocks are 7.5 cm x 2.5 cm).  Use a foam brush to apply a thin layer of Modge Podge glue to the block and adhere the paper.  Let dry for several hours.  Sand the edges of the blocks -- this will make them softer, will remove any excess paper, and give them a more homemade look.  Lightly spray each block with Mod Podge sealent.  Let dry for several hours.  

You are welcome to the patterns I used for my blocks.  Download the PDFs below.
