Today I thought I would share with you a very simple project that should get a few laughs if you make one for your home. I call it “The Exercise Block” and before any of you tune me out, let me say that this is funny, no exercise required!
Take A Look:
Materials Needed:
1 block, any size. (mine was a 4×4)
Scrapbook Paper
Mod Podge
Sponge Brush
Ribbon
Printed Directions
You can use this image if you’d like:
(Right click on the image to save it, then copy it to a word doc, adjust the size to fit your block and print. I make things easy for you!)
Here are the Easy Directions of this Tutorial:
1. Cut 6 squares of your scrapbook paper to fit your block
2. Mod Podge the paper to the sides of the block by adding a thin layer of Mod Podge to the wood, then lay your paper on that, then add another thin layer of Mod Podge to the top. Let it dry completely.
3. Mod Podge your Directions Sheet to one side of the block, then let it dry completely.
4. I chose to distress the edges with a sander just a bit, but that is up to you. Now just pick a ribbon and tie it up with a bow.
And that’s it!!!!
My kind of exercise!
