To create your own DIY Lawn Yahtzee Dice, you will need:

To begin, make sure your blocks are well sanded and don’t have any rough spots. Next, paint your blocks, making sure each side has adequate coverage so that none of the wood is showing.

Use neon colors for your lawn yahtzee dice to make them stand out!

Allow enough time (24 hours) for your blocks to dry before you paint the dots.

Use a foam brush to paint your wood blocks, making sure to cover them completely.

Next, use your circle foam brush and saturate it with black paint. You can use a picture of dice, or an actual dice to guide where to place your dots. Place your dots on each side of your dice.

Using your round foam brush, add the black pips to your dice.

Remember, the opposite sides of the dice always add up to 7. 1-6, 2-5, 3-4.

Remember: the opposite sides of the dice always add up to seven!

After painting your dots, allow at least 24 hours of drying time.

Make your own giant, brightly colored dice - perfect for yard yahtzee!

To give your blocks a protective coat, spray them with a clear acrylic sealant.

Seal your yard yahtzee dice with an acrylic spray - this will protect your color and make them shiny.

This will help preserve your paint and give them a nice shiny finish.

    This is such a fabulous idea! I want to do this with my grandkids — when they get a wee bit older. Wait!! I can do this with my friends for a party! They will think I’m so clever — thanks to you!

    By the way, I say this via the SITS Girls link party!
