Slice and Dice

It’s pretty amazing what you can do with a slice of wood. Β I mean, it’s like having a blank canvas to work with. Β I’d even make an analogy to a blank sheet of paper…if they weren’t pretty much already the same thing… Β Annnnyways, here are some grrreat ideas!

For the Young and Young at Heart

So, the teether has a specific age limit, but the ruler growth chart can be for anyone. Β Plus, I think it’d be fun to have a ginormous ruler hanging around the house!

‘Tis the Season

Here are a few creative ways to use wood for Christmas decorating, and all using supplies from around the house. Β Ok, I admit it, I did look around and see if I had an old chair I could bust up for ornaments.

It’s Just a Drill

Ah, power tools, how I love you and am terrified of you all at the same time. Β Pop a drill onto your favorite power driver and see what you can come up with!

Wood Signs

When all else fails, a wood sign with a favorite quote or scripture or verse from a song always always works. Β I always tell myself I don’t NEED a wood sign around the house, but then, I’m ALWAYS tempted to buy the “Beach, this way ->” sign or some other “reminds me of vacation” sign at the county fair. Β Someday, I will make one, when I can decide what I want to put on it.
