pallet art

I had a blank spot on my house.

There is no need for that....

And there was a HUGE pile of pallets by a dumpster behind our church.

I am very relieved that this empty spot is now filled with color!

The kids and I are thinking of so many uses for all of those beautiful ratty pallets that we could salvage.(we used spray paint- it worked perfectly.)

Tammy said...: I love this idea. So simple. I've been looking for an idea for a cheap, cute coat rack (I live in Vermont, so a coat rack is a must). I could do this using colors to tie my kitchen, dining room and living room (all visible from the entry area. I saw some outside faucet knob things in cute colors in a local vintage store and could use those as hooks. Thanks for the inspiration.:)
