My fabulously creative friend, Michelle, over at TenJune, and some other insanely amazing bloggers, Sherry, Katie, and Kate, have presented....
WOW! What a great thought...to actually create an idea on Pinterest!
Bravo for the motivation ladies!
My dear cousin, Brayton, and a few of her friends had the brilliant idea of making a corn hole set for a friend's 21st birthday gift...I know! What great friends are they...and what a thoughtful gift!
There are tons and tons of corn hole sets on Pinterest...here are some of my favorites:
SO, the materials we gathered:
The instructions were read:
And the construction began:
Once the corn hole sets were built the real fun began!
We sanded them and got to painting...
The background could be nothing other than chevron!
Which...by the way...looks a lot easier on paper than in reality...here is the best way to do it...
A sophisticated and chic color pallet of gray, white and sky blue were chosen:
The monogram was created on the computer and then stenciled onto the boards.
This project seemed super hard, but it was pretty simple...and cheap! The entire project cost about $50...plus some good old fashioned sweat equity!
Now all that is left to do is play!...and make another one for myself :)
I love this!! The men always think cornhole is their game - but this makes it feminine for the ladies! Might intimidate the boys enough to really beat them!
ReplyDeleteMissi~ I loved your comment!! Score one for the ladies!
DeleteThis is so lovely! I heart the grey chevron for sure. This post is perfect timing because I am thinking of making a few boards for a wedding reception I am putting together for my friend. There are lots of kids invited and I thought this might be fun... for all! But definitely something the kids will want to do. :) Thanks for sharing!
ReplyDeleteKids love this! You could also make a set on a smaller scale "kid sized." They may think that was special to have one just for them :)
DeleteLOVE this! I see collegiate corn hole sets all the time, but this sophisticated girly one is beyond cute!
ReplyDeleteThat is the cutest corn hole set I've ever seen. Great job!
ReplyDeleteI once helped a friend make a gameday cornhole set and was thinking of making some of my own. I love your idea! The chevron pattern and the monogram is too cute! Even better than the original!
