Checker Board Games for 18" Sized Dolls

        These checker game boards were easy to print and mount onto cardboard.
       I then sealed the surfaces with Mod Podge. The checker game pieces are made from Sculpey, rolled out and then flattened with my fingertip. I painted half of them red and the other half, I left unpainted (white.)
       The Chinese checker board was printed out and mounted on top of an oatmeal can lid. I glued tiny Styrofoam balls in different colors to the lid in the starting positions for the game.
