Ty's Puzzle Cube

My cute little nephew just turned 4, though he acts more like a teenager. And I wanted him to have something other than a toy, so I made him a puzzle cube. I included a pic of him with his family, him with his cute baby sister and then a pic of my nephew with each one of my kids. (Minus my little baby)

So yeah, I know...Not really that creative of a gift since I just did one for my MIL. However, this time I kept track of the supplies used and I also decided to share each pic before it got cut up, so here we go!

Grandkids Picture Puzzles

My sweet Mother-in-Law had a birthday this past week and I needed a gift for her.

She's not really an easy person to buy for as she isn't a really 'wantful' person. She also doesn't really like knick-knacky things, but I figured if it had pics of her grandkids she would make an exception.

So this idea is always super simple and I wanted to kick it up just a notch, so I added 2-3 word phrases on each pic that represented that child's personality.

Here is what the finished product looked like along with each of the pics I used:








The fun part of this gift was watching my mother in law put it together. I purposely didn't tell her that once you got one side done, it was just a matter of flipping blocks to get the other pictures right.

And again no supply list as I did this the same night as the Family...An Early Heaven blocks.

Family...An Early Heaven Blocks

So, I procrastinated and needed a cute little gift for my wonderful grandma. (She turned 91!)

She doesn't need much in regards to material things, so I tend to do cutesy, crafty things for her. I liked the way the Sweet Little Princess blocks turned out so I decided to do a similar thing for my grandma.

This is the result:


And I don't have a 'supply list' as I was doing this project way late at night, while suffering from heat stroke as well.
