Wood Pallets are great for DIY projects and we made good use of them this past summer. Our most recent project was a wedding sign. We had been using them to make chalkboards for our nieces wedding and when those were about finished we asked if there were any other signs they needed or if they would like any routed signs like Mr. Wonderful made for the bridal shower. The reply was yes and the idea was a rustic Love Story timeline sign. It did not take long to come up with an idea and then for it to all come together. It was a good thing too because we only had about a week left to complete it.
Once we had the style of sign figured out and how to display it we needed to decide on what to use to connect the boards. We knew that it needed to be easy to take apart to transport so we bought some heavy chain and used a couple links on each side between the boards.
The rustic, personalized sign was ready in no time.
It proved to be easy to pack, quick and easy to assemble and it was a fun addition to the entrance of the arena.
The new router tool has been used to make reserved parking signs, direction signs, bridal shower signs, and the list goes on. I think some fun holiday signs might be next on the wish list. Hopefully we still have a few pallet boards left but if not we will just keep our eyes open for another one.
Happy Wednesday!
