Military Countdown Blocks

Katie Talbo Provides a Great Way to Anticipate Return of Beloved Soldier

There are countdown blocks for virtually anything a person can think of including the return of a beloved soldier. In this case, this military-themed set allows wives and children to countdown the days before the return of their husband or father. Appropriately painted in the red, white and blue standard, these countdown blocks show just how excited families can be when it come to their deployed members.

Designed by Katie Talbo of Kates Little Shop, an Esty seller based in Angier, North Carolina, the military countdown blocks are made out of wood, paint and vinyl with decorative twine and button touches. The countdown sets come with a total of six numbered blocks to ensure that people can count down as far in advance as they please.
