Gather the Materials
As a first step, I collected all the materials and tried to arrange the wooden blocks in the best possible order. After this I painted the base wooden block in black (pic 2). This is one of the leftover pieces of my woodwork and I found it sturdy and easy to rest on.
Color the Wooden Blocks
These 12 cute little blocks are grouped into 4 consisting of 3 each. 1 group for 1 element. Then, I colored the blue, yellow, green and red blocks (pics 2-7). Left it in the open untouched for nearly 30 minutes. Acrylic paints dry quickly and are mostly hassle free.
