A Rainbow of DIY Dyed Wood Blocks

Renate

What could be more happy than a rainbow? Well, maybe a whole, big bin of bright rainbow DIY wood blocks! That's what Kasia of Dream Home was thinking when she made this spectacular collection of building fun for her daughter. Reminscent of her childhood toys, she decided to create her own collection to customize the colors and shapes just the way she likes and save a pretty penny to boot. We think she did a great job and it's sure to be a more treasured toy just because she put so much love in the endeavor. 

You can read all about it on her blog and follow along with the step-by-step tutorial if you want to try it for yourself. One caveat that we talked with Kasia about is the sealing of the blocks afterward. She left hers unsealed and happy with the results but we found a few resources for non-toxic ways to seal wood toys that would be worth the extra step. Check them out here and here



OK, happy dyeing!
