Brief Assembly Directions (e-mail me for full directions):
1. Purchase a 2x4 piece of wood at your local home improvement store. Ask the store clerk to cut it into two 3.5 x 5.5 pieces and three 3.5 x 3.5 pieces (2x4 lumber is actually 3.5 inches).
2. Sand the blocks and paint the edges with a dark color (cheap black spray paint works).
3 Prepare your photo sheets at www.AboutThePictures.Us using templates.
4 When your 12 x 12 pages arrive, cut them into the pieces needed for the blocks.
5.Use a black or brown Sharpie marker around the edges of the photo page pieces to cover the white edges.
6. Use spray adhesive to adhere the page pieces to the blocks.
7. Use Modge Podge to seal the blocks and protect them (2-3 coats recommended).
