My scrabble board gift idea....

My Christmas gift for my parents....
I love these scrabble board hangers. You have to reinforse the back open with thin wood. I found mine at Hobby Lobby. I put holes in the top corners to make the hanger with ribbon. I also used brads to cover the hole where the ribbon went through.You pick the words and if you run out of a letter use a spare and stamp the letter on it with perma ink. It works like a charm.
Embellish with ever you want and theme it out what ever way you want to.



I used my cricut to cut out the angel and layered it and added stickles glitter to wings. Cute!

I also pieced the flower together at the hanger top.
Endless possibilities. I have made three of them so far.
Will post pictures at later times.
Hope you like!
Let me know what you think...
Hey two posts in a day...wow~ me! hahaha
Having a great day today! Hope you are too!

  2. Hey girl--I have an altered scrabble board collage hanging in my scraproom--called men and babies! hahahah
    This really reminds me of what I started out as--an altered and collage artist!
    I made the bottles too--but use transparencies--and they totally blend into the bottle! Try them

  6. This is such a great idea. Especially for games that have loss their usefulness due to missing pieces.

  16. Steven, I am glad your mom is trying to make a go at a creative board that has been around for many many years. Many women have made these mostly on the old scrabble boards as I noticed your mom is using the new ones such as mine. My first one was on a antique board. I hope she has much success at selling them. I was glad to have learned how to make these at a make and take at my local scrapbook store. smiles...Tammy
