How did you dye those blocks? They are beautiful

[@BeautifulLightHome]

Thank you so much for reaching out! So I have a short I made where I dyed wood loose parts for my kids. It’s the same exact process I used for these blocks! Here is the link to the short: kzbin.infoE1_zFN-hJpE?si=q4MidX3AmEoxTI8m

@@BeautifulLightHome Thank you!

What are those slats called and where did you get them? I could not tell what you were saying haha sounded like gluscoffers

[@BeautifulLightHome]

Ahh the brand is called Gluckskafer and truthfully I’m looking for them in the US and for some reason I’m not finding them, but the Grimms Color Chart Rally is pretty close but not as long as the longest slats in this set.

It looks like someone on Etsy is selling them!

Do you have thoughts on marble trees

[@BeautifulLightHome]

So we have one, and it’s beautiful, but I don’t feel like it’s played with that often. I normally will hear the kids randomly put a ball down it and it sounds beautiful, but that’s about it. If I were between a marble tree and something more open ended, like the glukscafer slats or some sort of blocks, I’d go with the more open ended blocks or slats.

Where did you get the slats?

[@BeautifulLightHome]

Crazy, I just checked and they’re sold out everywhere. I got mine from thewoodenwagon.com and ours are called glueksckaefer building slats. If you can’t find them, the Grimms color chart rally are pretty similar too.

Can't help but notice that those are mostly about constructions, although together with the silks they're interesting for pretend play. What about mouvement play (cars and balls) ? Or gross motor skills?
