Wooden Name Blocks

In the Spring of 2011 there was a baby shower thrown at my house that is now a thing of legend!

The amount of pink that covered my home was enough to send my family running for the hills on the day of the event (or to my sisters house out of state).

One of the many "pinkalicious" items I made for the Mommy-To-Be were Wooden Name Blocks.

I don't have a great pic of them, but this is one I found on my iPhone.

She wasn't 100% set on the name at that point, so "PRINCESS" it was for the shower.

Once the little Princess arrived, I added her full name "CAROLINE" (sweet baby Callie) to the opposite side of the blocks.

Huge amounts of luck that there was the same amount of letters in both!!

Well they were a big HIT!

I've since made three more sets and this weekend finished my first commissioned set. Thanks Kelly!!

They're pink and sparkly and tons of fun!

And at 3.5" square, they're also heavy enough to probably break a toe!

They're so much fun to make, and to give, that I'm considering opening an Etsy shop so I can create and sell more often.

It'd probably be more work than I should take on at this point, but I'm not certain I'm gonna let that stop me.

Whatcha think??

Update: I've still not committed to an Etsy shop. I fear the time and commitment it would take along with my already full-time job. I am selling blocks though, here on my blog. If you're interested, follow the Shop ~ Wood Blocks link at the top of the page, or you can click HERE.
