Puppet Theater From A Pallet
by
Mom4Real
Take a pallet and turn it into an outdoor puppet theater. I started by removing a few boards for the window at the top. Next, I nailed a large board to the top. Then I painted the entire thing a beachy blue. I took a small board that I had in my garage and painted it with chalkboard paint and nailed it onto the top board of the pallet. I tied (with ribbon) a bucket on one side of the window for chalk, and a small potted geranium on the other side. I took a cafe' curtain rod and attached it with two hooks to hide the slats on the bottom and plopped it down in my flower garden. To keep it form toppling backwards, I screwed a tomato stake in the back on each side for support. Kate and her friends had puppet shows and performances all summer!
Have fabulous puppet shows all summer long!

I love your puppet theatre! This could be a lot of fun for our grandkids, and we just happen to have a few more pallets lying around. Thanks for the inspiration, Jessica! :)
