Quick Pic - Dominoes Felt Board


Howdy

I had previously made a Tetris board with felt for the kids to play with. That game inspired me to make another game; this time I chose dominoes. Our set of 28 felt tiles was quick to cut out. I painted the dots using black acrylic paint and the top of a pen to keep the dots uniform.  In retrospect I would have use another color besides the blue because the dots are hard to see on that color unless you are close up.
