Hey y’all! Today is Craft with us and my friends Terrie from Decorate With Tip and More, Corine from Junk to Gems, Teresa from Through A Vintage Door and I are all crafting up a storm. Today I’m sharing how to finish a Tic Tac Toe board!

I found this giant one at Hobby Lobby.

It’s huge and measures out at 24″ x 24″ X 1″ and you can lay it flat on a table or it can hang on a wall.

With our family Summer BBQ’s coming up I thought that it might be fun to finish one out for all of the littles – and not so little’s to play with!

Bonus that it’s on Sale right now!

Supplies

1 – Tic Tac Toe Board

Painted tic tac toe board

Step 1

Paint or stain your board.

I thought long and hard whether to stain or paint this but finally went with paint for a fun colorful game.

Painting the white bottom and sides was my first step, followed by painting the cross bars and the edge navy blue.

Step 2

While my board was drying, it was time to work on my X and O’s!

I chose two different types of scrapbook paper, one for the X and one for the O.

Flip the paper upside down, trace your wooden game pieces with at pencil.

Step 4

Apply the cut out scrapbook paper to the wooden shapes.

To apply the paper, first give your wooden letter a good coat of Mod Podge.

Then apply the scrapbook paper cut out.

Firmly push on the paper to remove any air bubbles and to make sure the paper sticks well.

I like to use an old credit card to do this.

Let dry completely.

TIP: Once these have dried, take a sanding block and lightly sand the edge to make sure no paper is hanging over the edge.

Once the Mod Podge has dried, apply a top coat of Mod Podge to the letters.

To make sure that the edges are properly sealed, I like to paint both the top and sides.

Let dry.
