Baby Name Blocks

September 4, 2012 by Rebecca Wagner 13 Comments

I’m back with my new creation featuring Trendy Twine.  This month we are showcasing Chocolate Sprinkles. And what goes better with blue and brown than little boys.  Usually the brown is mud though. I decided to make my own wooden blocks out of some scrap lumber my husband had laying around.  Of course, this is going to my nephew.  You guys sick of hearing about him yet?  LOL

I saw someone selling these on Etsy, and liked them so much I made my own.  I believe they used frames.  To give interest on the letters, I outlined them in the Chocolate Sprinkles twine.  Cute, no?  I think so.  Sometimes my picture taking leaves much to be desired.  They are bright and cheery off camera.

That’s all for today folks.  I slipped and fell down the stairs this afternoon. I’m not feeling so hot.  Let’s just say I am too old to be bouncing down on hard wood. I mean it is a quicker way to get to the bottom, but oh so painful.  I need to take an aspirin and go to bed.

Sneak peek at the A5 spirals made just for the Coa Sneak peek at the A5 spirals made just for the Coach notebook.
White plastic coil, slim cardboard backing so it slides right into the pocket, and cardstock covers — personalized, not coated.

Alien cover = Monthly Deluxe (with lined pages in back).
Bookshelf cover = Weekly Horizontal Compact.

We did have to cut the deluxe notes section to keep everything on a smaller coil (so the weekly fits), but we’re still testing what else we can add… including a special feature I’m not spilling yet.

Trying to make this thing as functional as humanly possible — stay tuned. 👀✨

Testing something new… 👀 Our A5 Coach noteboo Testing something new… 👀
Our A5 Coach notebook is finally getting the glow-up she deserves, and we’re playing with different refill styles to see what fits, flips, and feels right inside that TikTok-famous cover.

This spiral beauty is one of the contenders — and yes, we’re this close to having the perfect setup. Stay tuned… it’s all coming together. ✨📚

Who else is ready to upgrade their Coach with something way more functional than the paper it came with?

✨Who’s got the A5 Coach notebook… and who’ ✨Who’s got the A5 Coach notebook… and who’s already hunting for a refill because that lined pad it came with lasted about 12 seconds? 😅

It’s TikTok-famous and cute, but the “calendar” situation? Yeah… we can do better.

We’re in testing mode to create actually gorgeous refills for it — monthlies, weeklies, and all the pages this thing should have come with in the first place.

Question for you:
👉 What kind of refill would you want first — monthly, weekly, or notes?

Stay tuned. This baby’s about to level up. 📆🌸

We retired the old gold after too many print headaches (RIP, shiny troublemaker). This new satin finish keeps that luxe vibe but actually shows the lines—no more disappearing print when the light hits it. Sometimes change really is golden.
