My cousin, Jason, is serving over in Iraq right now (pray for him - again - he's been there before) and I thought that I'd make him something. So I made him a Rubik's Cube personalized with pictures of his lovely daughters and beautiful girlfriend. I think it turned out so cool, that I actually made one for Mike for valentine's day (of us, not Jason's family!) - but forgot to take pictures of it before he took it to work. ( I sent the solving directions with the cube that I sent in case he can't firgure out how to solve it if somebody screws it up!)
** This just added!! It's really very easy to make. I purchased some sticker paper, measured the squares on the cube...5/8 inch square is what I used. Inserted pictures into Microsoft Word (because that's what I have!) and cropped them how I liked them down to the size that I needed and printed, snipped, stuck, and sealed(with mod podge)! I know it is very very wrong to peel off the stickers on a cube, but I did it anyway...and it felt good! The hardest part is picking out pictures. 6 good pictures printed 9 times- it took a seriously long time to print because of the file size. **
And I made this cute little crown for E girl. Isn't it sweet? Look how crazy curly her hair is!

That Rubik's Cube is SO cool! Any tips on how to make it?
Jason will love it! I'm jealous that I didn't think to make him one first! haha j/k The crown for Elli is really cute. Good job!
love the Rubik's cube Jessie you are so good
That is really neat. Did you just peal the stickers off of a regular rubics cube? Now how can anyone else send Jason something that will top that? Lois
