If you are a fellow crafter you have probably seen Craft Stick Puzzles pop up on Pinterest and other crafty blogs. I really liked the way Play Create Explore made hers and quickly decided that I was going to have to make a few of our own! Then I thought, what if I made them double-sided? And what if I made the images correspond?! So I picked out a few different images that are opposites. I tried to keep it simple for my 2-year-old. Sun/Moon = Day/Night, Elephant/Mouse = Big/Small, Fire/Ice = Hot/Cold.
First, I printed out the images on computer paper and cut them out. Using scotch tape, I taped together the back of the craft sticks to keep them from sliding around while I was glueing.
Second, using Mod Podge, I glued the images to the craft sticks then generously applied the Mod Podge over the images. When dry (about an hour) I removed the scotch tape and used a box cutter knife to cut in between the craft sticks. Its easier if you do this from the back of the puzzle.
Repeat process for the backside.
When everything was dry, I numbered the sticks. Be sure to use a different color pen for the front and back numbers.

Reserved will use the investment round to build support for other cloud platforms including Azure and Google Cloud. The company employs five people and expects to triple the size of its team with the funding.
Aran Khanna, a finalist for Young Entrepreneur of the Year at this month’s GeekWire Awards, previously co-founded a retail startup called Glia Intelligence with his younger brother Nikhil. Both graduated from Lakeside School in the Seattle region — the alma mater of Bill Gates.
