DIY Cornhole Boards

Last month my sister got married! To get ready for the big day, James and I had a To-Do List for the DIY wedding! Our first project was two pair of cornhole boards. The whole event was outdoors so Sarah and Nat wanted something for people to do in the good weather. James did most of this project and he did a great job! He used the dimensions/plans from here. It was easy to follow and we have some pictures to share of the progress. I don't have the best pictures of each step because he worked on them the nights I was at work. Once he gets his tools in hand there is no stopping for pictures unless I'm stalking him with a camera. So here are some of the shots I did get!

Here the main boards are already cut out and painted with the base colors. He got all the supplies from Lowe's. Their wedding colors were grey and yellow so we coordinated.

 

We taped off the stripes we wanted to keep grey and painted the others yellow.

The finished Chevron and polka dots. I painted the polka dot boards by taking a bowl and tracing a bunch of circles over the boards. I used one of those black sponge brushes to paint the holes in- it kept it streak free.


Here are some pics of the boards at the wedding, they were a big hit!
