We have these little blocks of wood, made from scraps that I salvaged from our property up north. They live on a shelf on The Wall in our family room. The fronts are painted with chalkboard paint, and every month I change the word to fit the occasion. This month is hubby's birthday so we celebrate him and the chalk-blocks help. :o)And the garland strung across the front is one I made a few months ago -- LOVE garland!!!
Sometimes the blocks just read: "HOME" or "LOVE." In October it was "BOO" with a spider drawn on block #4. December will be "NOEL" or maybe "SNOW" or...who knows. They are a fun addition to our house!

I just looked at the picture to figure out what they may have done. I could tell they made a ring with five sets of three double crochets around it. Then I just went from there, using trial and error until it kind of looked right. Just let me know if you want to have a full explanation! I can definitely try to teach you the whole thing!! I just need to make another one to make sure I know what each step is without stopping and undoing parts of it several times before getting it right! XD
