Emoji Tic Tac Toe Game

Tic Tac Toe, an all-time classic game.  Simple and easy, anyone can play.

Summer time is winding down and my kids are getting a little restless.  They are excited for school to start but also don’t want to give up the lazy days of summer vacation.  The other day my daughter and I put down our cell phones and I asked her if she wanted to play tic tac toe.  To my surprise, she said yes.  Of course, we played the old fashioned way. I thought it would be fun to create a tic tac toe game we could use over and over again.

You will only need a few things to create this project.  It’s about 15 minutes from start to finish, plus dry time.

Farmhouse Style Welcome Sign

The ‘Fixer Upper’ or farmhouse style is extremely trendy right now.  I love this look and love looking at all the decor that goes along with this style.  Although I find my style just a tad bit more modern, I do find myself completely drawn to the farmhouse style or ‘old fashioned’ as my husband would say.   I’ve seen so many entry signs and I thought it would be extremely fun to create one myself.  This will go in my new entry.

You only need a few things to create this project, so let’s get started.

Supplies

– chalk paint, select your favorite colors

– 3 Walnut Hollow 12×12 wood panels

– foam brush

– stencil or cut vinyl

– permanent glue

I love the Walnut Hollow wooden panels, however, I  wanted a panel a little larger. So, I glued three 12X12 panels together, this work out perfect.

1 – Paint two coats of chalk paint on the wooden panels.  Let dry.

2 – Glue the panels together using wood or permanent glue.  Let dry over night.

3 – Skip this step if you have a premade stencil.  Create and cute a word or quote using a personal cutting machine using vinyl.

4 – Place stencil or vinyl onto the wooden panel.

5 – Paint

6 – Remove the stencil or vinyl

7 – (optional) Lightly sand and hang.
