Stenciled Halloween blocks

I am getting into the Halloween spirit! Now that school has started,  I feel like it’s time to get going on some fall and Halloween crafts.  I love Halloween it is my favorite holiday!  I can never have to many decorations.  I know wooden word blocks have been around forever.  These really aren’t new,  I decided to add one more element to my wooden word blocks to make them amazing!

I started with wooden blocks that measure 3 1/2 ” x 3 1/2″  I painted them with my amazing wood glaze for the first coat.  While they were drying I used my personal cutting machine to cut out the words BOO and EEK on contact paper.  I also cut 3 different fun designed stencils onto contact paper.  After my wood glaze was dry, I applied the letters in the center of the wood blocks and then painted the blocks a cream color.  When the paint was completely dry I applied the designed stencils over top of the cream paint and letter stencil.  For the Boo blocks I painted the stencil orange on all 3 blocks.  The EEK blocks I did green purple and orange paint and also added glitter while the paint was still wet.  After my paint was dry I peeled off the designed stencil and then peeled off the letter.  I sanded the edges of the blocks to finish them off.  The was such a fun way to revamp word blocks.
