Part 2

 I didn't take any pictures while making this craft because it was a huge headache for me! LOL

 This is where I got my pinsperation from. Jeremy and I made ours 10x10 vs 15x15 solely because of the price of the lego base plate. But, I think that the 10x10 is a perfect size. So, we had home depot cut the wood for us since we didn't have the means to do it ourselves. Then we put the pieces together & I painted it. Then I printed out their names, held them up to the side and wrote over the paper so that it made an indentation on the wood. Then I painted in their names and sprayed the whole thing with a protective coat. Then I glued the base plates down inside. THIS was the headache for me, minus small other little hiccups. Must be when the wood got cut or we put it together it didn't end up just right because the base plates wouldn't just fit right in. I had to work pretty hard to get them in and then weigh them down overnight so that they wouldn't bubble up on me. BUT - they worked out pretty great and they seemed to be a huge hit! The tutorial that I saw put handles on the sides and felt circles on the bottom but, I didn't think any of that was a big deal.
