We are in the days of FANCY, everything and everyone are always just so darn....Fancy! So, when I got the news that one of my favorite people was having her 1st child, I knew that this shower had to be FANCY! lol! Although I like and enjoy my share of fancy, I definitely believe in being practical and enjoying a DIY project. Some people are immediately turned off by the thought of any type of DO It Yourself projects, but as you will learn I absolutely love them! Doing It Yourself does NOT mean you have to sacrifice the FANCY fun stuff that we all love. With that being said, I had this great idea for my cousin's baby shower to create life size blocks to celebrate Baby Marley! Not only were they awesome decor, but they doubled as a backdrop for photos. If you are interested in creating life size blocks for an event, your child's room, or etc please see the step by step instructions below. But first..... a few pics! You can call me "Tot the Builder" aka "Bob the Builder" HAHA!
