Scrabble Game Crafts

So here is the one I had made for my Mother in Law. I took an old Scrabble Board and made sure I had enough Letter Tiles to do put in all the names in the family. Then what I did is start it off by placing "Family" on the top and building off from there placing the names of her children and grandchildren. I also added on some key words like; Mom, Nana, Love etc..
It is important when doing this to lay it all out before gluing and it may take some time to get it all on - mine did, just keep working at it. When you have it the way you like then glue the tiles on the board using a Hot Glue gun. Be careful to not put too much glue on that it will ooze out the sides. I also then added a Tile Holder to the bottom with the word "Bonds" - meaning like family bonds and pushed 2 tiles to the side just for fun. All of that was glued in place as well.
I then added on a picture hanger on the back and it was complete. This now hangs in her living room - originally I though she would put it in the Rec room, but she loved it too much and it is now a conversational piece for her guests.

You can really do this anyway you like - using any words you like and it is fun and it really looks cool hanging on the wall.

These are so much fun and everyone loves these. I consign these in local stores with my other crafts and they sell like hot cakes. There are many ways to do these, but this is what I do. I make fun words like: Diet, Coffee, Tea, Beer, Moody, Sew, Quilt, Love etc.. I then use a hot glue gun and glue the letter tiles on to a thin craft stick (gives extra support) cut to the length of the word. I then use The Adhesive Magnetic Strips cut to size - I will also use the hot glue on the adhesive back to have it hold better and then glue it to the craft stick. And there you have it - some fun for the Fridge, Lockers and where ever else you can stick up a magnet.

For my holiday craft exchange I made words that had to do with who I was giving it too - funny ones.

You can also just put magnets on the individual letter tiles and people can make their own words too.

Now these are bit more work to do and I cannot take all the credit - my husband had to do the drilling (that is his department).
Now you can make any word obviously you want to, but I made the last name of the family I was giving it too.
You need a very thin drill bit for these and a vice to hold the tile. You need to drill a hole through the tile from the top - very carefully. Then when all done you string them like beads with other cool beads in between the letters with a wire (make sure to have the end ready with the bead and a knot so they will not fall off), make a loop on the top and then they are done and ready to hang.
They look cool on the tree or just hanging somewhere in the house.

The highest scoring 7-letter bingo is MUZJIKS. The tiles total 29 points and it scores 128 on the first move.

Ok sounds great - what the heck does that word mean?
mu·zhik also mou·jik or mu·jik or mu·zjik
Meaning: A Russian peasant.
