I recycle used Scrabble games to make permanent framed wall art. You give me me about 25 words about a person/family. I fit all the words on a Scrabble board, glue them down, and frame the board under glass. Here are suggestions to help you come up with 25-30 words: Names, Pet names, Sport's Teams, Their favorite Expressions, Traditions or Stories, Colleges, Movies, Music, TV, Actors/Musicians, Restaurants, Beer/Wine, Birthdays/Anniversary dates, and Funny Words that remind you of the family/person you are giving the personal gift to. This is the most unique gift you will ever give and it's up to YOU (with my help;) to work hard at this list of words about the family/person. Please stay clear of words like Love, Family and Friends. These are words that would be on anyone's board. Your part of this gift is to remember a story/tradition unique to them. That time the dalmatian dog escaped and was returned by the fire department. Or how about how Grammy always makes a GREEN JELLO MOLD every Xmas? No one ever eats it, but it HAS to be there every Christmas. (one year she didn't make it since it was never touched and she sure caught heck THAT year)
This board becomes a word biography of the life of the person/family. Your part is to think back years of the life of the family/person. Where did they first meet? Hobbies? Work? Volunteer for? Church? Favorite food/baked good/candy bar? The more creative and funny you make your list the better the board turns out! Our goal together is to make a gift that brings tears of joy. Please call me/email me to work with you to come up with your list of words. Since I have been making these for years, I am very good at helping draw out the best words to use on a board.
