I loved this idea the minute I saw it.
Knew that it was just the perfect gift for my nephew, Harry. Hope he doesn't read Taffy Talk. He's bright, but I don't believe he's reading blogs yet. Heck, I'D love this in my stocking! I followed the directions here. Found the chipboard squares in the scrapbook section at the craft store. 
They were $2.99 for 20. I bought 2 bags. If I was a handy dandy coupon girl like Corrie, I would have gotten them even cheaper. But alas, I am not very handy with a coupon. Had full sheets of scrapbook paper because I don't scrapbook. Now, I really won't because all the pages are missing a 2" x 4" rectangle off of each sheet. Made up a quick drawstring bag.
It really is like a 30 minute project, start to finish.
Corrie assures me Harry is brilliant and will be able to handle the matching game. Hope so. 
What a great idea, I think I will be makin some up for my boys, great stocking stuffer!!
ReplyDeleteHi Des, I'm enjoying all your ideas. Is Corrie gone for the whole month? My daughter and I tried making the cupcakes plates. We had fun going to goodwill etc.BUT they didn't stick. We tried 2 different Loctite products to no avail. There are several varieties of Loctite adhesive. We'll keep trying...
ReplyDeleteI'm SO doing those! I have enough scrapbook supplies I could probably do some for every kid on the planet. Okay maybe that's a slight exaggeration, but at least every kid in town! Thank you so much for sharing. You always find the cutest things!
ReplyDeleteI'll be adding this to my to do list, for sure!
ReplyDeleteWhat a great idea.
ReplyDeleteYou know, technically you scrapbooked. You used your scrapbook supplies to make a project so it counts! Welcome to the dark side Des ;o).
ReplyDeleteVery cute, my to do list just got longer!
Love it. Were the squares precut? I think this is a great idea for a family gift. I may copy.
ReplyDeleteThe chipboard squares were precut. So precise and exact. It was a good feeling, when i found them. Like all my dreams had come true.
ReplyDeleteWhat a fun idea. I am sure he will like it.
ReplyDeleteLove it! Stocking that away for games to make for baby P when she's bigger. Thanks for the instructions! Church bag is coming into focus now.
ReplyDeleteSuch a fabulous idea!
ReplyDeleteWhat a fantastic idea! Where you come up with all of these ideas, I just don't know. I wish I could half as much done as you do. I will always keep trying to be as good as you. Luv ya
ReplyDeleteI'd say this project is a lot more fun than making 400 ham sandwiches in your garage!!! Cheers!
ReplyDeleteHarry will love them, so will I!
ReplyDeleteO.K. am just now noticing the cute Christmasy you guys added to your banner! So fun!
ReplyDeletethis is such a great idea. i must do this before the little-ist one in the family grows up.
ReplyDeleteThese are so clever and I had to go check out the blog where you discovered them. I could tuck this away for grandchildren but by then I won't EVER remember. Love the bright colors.
ReplyDeleteThat is such a great idea!
