Freezer Stenciled Bean Bags Part 2

Here are the promised finished bean bags.  If you are interested in how I painted the letters on see part 1 in this post. 
Here are a few things I did in case you want to make your own.
* I made all of the letters lowercase.  Like I said in my previous post I also painted them how they are written.  These are made for kids who are learning their letters and I want them to learn the letters the right way.
*I  made a dot at the bottom of each bean bag so the child can tell which way the letter goes--u and n, p and d look very much alike and I wanted the child to know which letter was which.
*Bean bags are about 4 1/2" square. 
*I used a little less than 2/3 cup dried pinto beans in each one.
As always, feel free to ask any questions!
