DIY Codenames Game + Free Printable!
AHHHH!!! This may be my favourite DIY of all time?! A personalized version of the best board game –Codenames! Yes, please! It also may be the best gift idea of all time? I’m making a lot of very bold statements, but for a good reason – ha! But, seriously, this makes the perfect gift for a friend, family member, husband or boyfriend! You can play it together and relive memories at the same time! #winning
The idea for this game came from playing codenames with my family, and my uncle saying, “How great would it be if we could play this with photos of us?” The codenames pictures edition uses fun illustrations, but how much more fun to play with photos of your own memories?! So, that’s what I did! The best news? I’ve done most of the work for you! I designed everything you’ll need, all you have to do if choose your photos, print, and cut it all out! I’m so excited about how it turned out, and I hope you will LOVE it! ALSO, if you haven’t played Codenames then you need to play it!! It’s linked here!

SUPPLIES:

Hi Mikyla! Your codename pictures DIY is so cool! Wanna make it as a gift for Valentine’s Day tomorrow! However, I seem to be facing an issue with the subscription button sent in the email – button could not be clicked. Would you be able to send the the printable directly to my email? Thank you!!
Hey Ruth! I’m so sorry about that! I haven’t had that issue before! I just emailed it to you 🙂
Hi Mikyla! I am having the same issue with the “free printable,” when I click it, it says: The link you are trying to follow is expired.
Email address alexmvaldes@outlook.com was already confirmed.” Can you email the printable link also? thanks!
Where is the link to download it? Can you email it to me? Please!
Hey Bella! There is a box underneath the supplies section where you can enter your email to download it 🙂 I have emailed it to you as well!

Admiring the dedication you put into your site and in depth information you provide.
It’s great to come across a blog every once in a while that isn’t
the same old rehashed information. Excellent read! I’ve bookmarked your site and I’m including your RSS feeds to my Google account.
I’m really enjoying the design and layout of
your site. It’s a very easy on the eyes which
makes it much more pleasant for me to come here and visit more often.
Did you hire out a developer to create your theme? Exceptional work!
Helpful information. Lucky me I discovered your website unintentionally, and I’m surprised why this accident didn’t came about earlier!
I bookmarked it.
Heya are using WordPress for your blog platform?
I’m new to the blog world but I’m trying to get started and set up my own. Do you require any html coding knowledge to make
your own blog? Any help would be really appreciated!
Hi! Yes, I use WordPress, and I bought a theme which means you don’t really need any coding knowledge!

Hi Mikyla!
Love this idea so much – I’m trying to download your template but I’m unable to see the input field (subscription form) you’re referring to below the supplies section. I think it might be hidden in your code!
Would you be able to email it to me as well? 🙂
Hey!! Sorry for the delay, but I just emailed it to you 🙂
hey, what a great idea; would you mind emailing it to me?
Thank you 🙂
I just emailed it 🙂
Heya! I’m at work browsing your blog from my new iphone! Just wanted to say I love
reading your blog and look forward to all your posts!
Keep up the superb work!
You are so awesome! I do not believe I’ve truly read through anything like that before.
So good to find somebody with a few unique thoughts on this subject.
Really.. thank you for starting this up. This site is one thing that
is needed on the web, someone with a bit of originality!
I constantly spent my half an hour to read this blog’s content daily
along with a mug of coffee.
Hi,
I am unable to find the download link as well. Would you be able to email it to me?
Thank you!
Hey! It’s right under the supplies list 🙂 But, I just emailed it to you!
I love this!! So sad because I subscribed but it says that the link expired. Could you send it to me?
Oh that happens if you don’t download it right away – so weird! I just emailed it to you though 🙂
Hello,
I am having trouble downloading it as well. Any way you can send it to my email too?
Thanks!

Mikyla
Hi!
Would you mind to email me the link too?
Thank you!!
I love Yahtzee, wonder if you could make dice with family members to play? I guess you would need five sheets with six pictures 3×3? and four 3×3 cubes?
We have made giant Jenga, giant Kerplunk, love the silly games…
A music themed Codenames might be fun too!
Or a faith-based version?
How about recipe ingredients?
Hi!
Love this concept! Want to make it for my friend for her birthday; she introduced me to Codenames 😉
Many thanks for letting us use your creativity for more fun <3
I can't find the download link – only pin-links. Could you email me the printable?
Let me know if you need help figuring out where the download link went (it looks like a lot of people have this problem) – if it would be useful to you?
Thanks again!
Hey, couldn’t find it 🙂 could you send it as well? Thanks for this brillant idea!

Hi! I just tried twice but have not received the link on my email to printout the printables. Can you please send me the link?
Can i get a template to diy codenames?
