How to Age Pallet Wood

Easy
Love pallet wood, but, prefer a aged look? You can create that aged look in just a few hours!
Pallet Wood is one of my favorite ways to upcycle! Not only are pallets free, but, it's wood. They are used to transport heavy shipments to their destination and then tossed out as quickly as they came in. That's good for us DIY'ers because we can create treasures without a lot of money!
I have my own sources in my hometown just outside of Kansas City. They often call and tell me to come get the pallets sitting out back. When it's "one of those calls" I'm sure to bring the trailer along so that I can pick them up all at one time!
So this is what pallet wood looks like when I bring it home. Usually I let the pallet wood sit outside to let it get whethered and aged. But, there are times that I do need to get a project done and it's time effect just to age it myself.
Enjoyed the project?
