Mixed Media Altered Jenga Blocks
Mixed Media Altered Jenga Blocks
From the Designer: "Taking a random item and altering is so much fun. I was looking though my kids toys and saw the jenga blocks, a perfect element to alter! I used a variety of mixed media products to add texture, color, 3D elements, and a little bit of Harry Potter fun (can you find which 2 are a HP theme)? Some I made vertical, some horizontal, some a little simple, and some have a ton of 3D elements. A little someone for everyone :)"
