How to make the giant LEGO

Ready to get started? Here’s how to make the giant LEGO

  1. Cut a piece of bulletin board paper 24″ wide by at least 36″ tall. (If you’re using plastic tablecloth material, then use two pieces the exact same size so you can double them up – as the material is normally quite see-through)
  2. Lay the colored paper flat and lay out two matching colored dessert plates into the middle. For your placement, you’ll want to have them a few inches apart from each other and leave roughly the same number of inches on either side. Eyeball it until it feels right.
  3. Mark the placement of your plate with the marker and add dots of hot glue around the rim of the plate.
  4. Flip the plates upside down to glue them in place according to where you marked them to go.
  5. Repeat with the second plate.
  6. Let it dry.
  7. Repeat this with your other colors to make multiple giant LEGO bricks.
  8. Hang up on the wall using either a stapler or *another hanging material suitable for your walls – ie. double-sided sticky tape, painter’s tape, sticky tack, 3M command strips, etc.

In a nutshell

There you have it – the simple steps to make giant bricks for a bright and colorful wall display. You only need a few materials and a few minutes to pull it together. But I dare say that the impact of the bright colors and classic brick look will be awesome!
