My first Meeple... Wow I feel like this has such heavy implicationssteemCreated with Sketch.

As I said in my first post I shaped almost 16 meeples out of wood, in anticipation for my big trip abroad. I kept 4, and gave the rest of them to my close, fellow game loving, friends. Of the 4 I kept two for my personal trips, one for everyday life and a mini one for who knows what yet. Looking back this was an amazing project, and now I have an amazing piece to put on my mantle to remember the trip by.

The entire idea started when my boyfriend of many years now suggested I bring a boardgame piece on my trip. I modified it and decided to carve GIANT MEEPLES out of wood. My project started with a 2x6, 6 different colors of paint, a jigsaw, and a sander. I traced each of the meeples, cut them out, then sanded them down so that they were even and smooth.

Then I painted them...

And clear coated them.

And when it was all said and done I had an amazing little piece to bring with me on my trip. This photo was taken in a little cafe in Venice Italy.

After Italy, I boarded the Dave Koz Venice and Beyond Jazz Cruise, and had all the big name artists on board sign my meeple. Defiantly cant wait to go on another!
