This year Alex said they had seen some of those decorative blocks and she liked them. So, I decided to try to make her some.\u00a0 They had only seen the ones with one side done.\u00a0 But I thought I would make her some multi-sided so that she could have them out all year-round. I didn&#8217;t make them just holiday-themed; there are a couple of more generic sides. The blocks are small (not quite 2&#8243;) and that was a challenge to find things that fit. I enjoyed the way they turned out!\u00a0 I hope she likes them as well!<\/p>\n<div id='gallery-1' class='gallery galleryid-1027 gallery-columns-3 gallery-size-thumbnail'><figure class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<div class='gallery-icon landscape'>\n\t\t\t\t<a href='https:\/\/inspirlutions.com\/wp\/2020\/06\/17\/a-birthday-gift\/woodblocks-winter\/'><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" src=\"https:\/\/inspirlutions.com\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/woodblocks-winter-150x150.jpg\" class=\"attachment-thumbnail size-thumbnail\" alt=\"\" aria-describedby=\"gallery-1-1022\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<figcaption class='wp-caption-text gallery-caption' id='gallery-1-1022'>\n\t\t\t\tWinter Side\n\t\t\t\t<\/figcaption><\/figure><figure class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<div class='gallery-icon landscape'>\n\t\t\t\t<a href='https:\/\/inspirlutions.com\/wp\/2020\/06\/17\/a-birthday-gift\/woodblocks-valentines\/'><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" src=\"https:\/\/inspirlutions.com\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/woodblocks-valentines-150x150.jpg\" class=\"attachment-thumbnail size-thumbnail\" alt=\"\" aria-describedby=\"gallery-1-1021\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<figcaption class='wp-caption-text gallery-caption' id='gallery-1-1021'>\n\t\t\t\tValentine&#8217;s Side\n\t\t\t\t<\/figcaption><\/figure><figure class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<div class='gallery-icon landscape'>\n\t\t\t\t<a href='https:\/\/inspirlutions.com\/wp\/2020\/06\/17\/a-birthday-gift\/woodblocks-life-2\/'><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" src=\"https:\/\/inspirlutions.com\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/woodblocks-life-1-150x150.jpg\" class=\"attachment-thumbnail size-thumbnail\" alt=\"\" aria-describedby=\"gallery-1-1023\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<figcaption class='wp-caption-text gallery-caption' id='gallery-1-1023'>\n\t\t\t\tLife Side\n\t\t\t\t<\/figcaption><\/figure><figure class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<div class='gallery-icon landscape'>\n\t\t\t\t<a href='https:\/\/inspirlutions.com\/wp\/2020\/06\/17\/a-birthday-gift\/woodblocks-fourth-july\/'><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" src=\"https:\/\/inspirlutions.com\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/woodblocks-fourth-july-150x150.jpg\" class=\"attachment-thumbnail size-thumbnail\" alt=\"\" aria-describedby=\"gallery-1-1018\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<figcaption class='wp-caption-text gallery-caption' id='gallery-1-1018'>\n\t\t\t\tFourth of July Side\n\t\t\t\t<\/figcaption><\/figure><figure class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<div class='gallery-icon landscape'>\n\t\t\t\t<a href='https:\/\/inspirlutions.com\/wp\/2020\/06\/17\/a-birthday-gift\/woodblockdisney\/'><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" src=\"https:\/\/inspirlutions.com\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/woodblockdisney-150x150.jpg\" class=\"attachment-thumbnail size-thumbnail\" alt=\"\" aria-describedby=\"gallery-1-1016\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<figcaption class='wp-caption-text gallery-caption' id='gallery-1-1016'>\n\t\t\t\tDisney side\n\t\t\t\t<\/figcaption><\/figure><figure class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<div class='gallery-icon landscape'>\n\t\t\t\t<a href='https:\/\/inspirlutions.com\/wp\/2020\/06\/17\/a-birthday-gift\/woodblocks-christmas\/'><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" src=\"https:\/\/inspirlutions.com\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/woodblocks-christmas-150x150.jpg\" class=\"attachment-thumbnail size-thumbnail\" alt=\"\" aria-describedby=\"gallery-1-1017\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<figcaption class='wp-caption-text gallery-caption' id='gallery-1-1017'>\n\t\t\t\tChristmas Side\n\t\t\t\t<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>She is a big Disney fan so I pick up anything Disney when I find it cheap!
