The Cricut Joy came in super handy for this project. It’s a nice chunky font and perfect for the top of the blocks. I used the Cricut Access Fonts– Headline News. To add the x’s and o’s to the wood squares, I’m going to create x’s and o’s in Cricut Design Space™ and cut them in removable vinyl. Creating the DIY Game Pieces for the Lawn On a few of the pieces my husband filled in some spaces with wood putty that he just couldn’t get smooth from sanding. Then give your squares a good sanding around the edges to make sure no one will get a splinter (that would ruin the game really fast). To get started cut your 4×4 into 5 squares about 2 inches wide. Variety of Plaid Craft Paints- Black, Harvest Orange, Red Apple, Patina, Fresh Foliage Making projects from the scrap wood pile are always fun, like these wood block signs or these 2×4 book stacks. My husband found some scrap pieces of a 4×4 already cut that were about 2 inches (just a little under) so that’s the size went with for our pieces. Last summer, we were given pallets with 4×4 post on them and decided they would be the perfect size for the tic tac toe pieces.

Since we are trying to only go out for essentials, we used items we had in our scrap wood pile. This is how we made a DIY Tic Tac Toe Game for the lawn.ĭomestic Deadline | Chas’ Crazy CreationsĬomfort Spring | Cookies, Coffee, & Crafts The kids love games and this way it will give them extra things to do in the backyard for fun.
