STACK "EM UP!

Anyway you stack 'em these are something fun! One of my family's favorite songs is "I Am A Child of God". Part of the chorus is "Lead me, guide me, walk beside me...", so these are a sweet reminder of that message. The pink and brown stack is for a girl's room...kind of obvious?! I have a thing for pink and brown lately, and polka dots; they are tied together with a brown ribbon with pink polka dots of course! The other stack is for a boy's room or a family room. These don't need to be tied together as they can stack on their own, but for fun I twisted some heavy wire around this bunch and then curled the ends around my wooden kitchen spoon.

Are you starting to think about all the possibilities? Choose your favorite verse, poem, phrase or words; then pick your colors and stack 'em up! Along with a different color on each block, you could pick a different font for each block of words.


Here's one for Thanksgiving: TURKEY, BLESSINGS, PUMPKIN PIE...naturally two out of three deal with food?! You are probably wondering why I didn't include CHOCOLATE in that group, but I really do like pumpkin pie...with fresh whipped cream of course!


For winter, how about LET IT SNOW! This was my husband's favorite set of stackers; do you think it has something to do with winter meaning the end of yard work?
