Neutral Coastal Pallet Flag

Easy
A few weeks ago, we found some pallets that were in wonderful condition. Well, wonderful for a pallet. I knew I wanted to create something fun and beachy for summer, so I came up with this neutral coastal pallet flag.
To make this flag, my hubby cut the main boards off of the pallet with a circular saw. Since they were a bit shaggy with splinters, I lightly sanded each one of them.
Then I gave the wood an aged look with a concoction of apple cider vinegar and steel wool.
Once all of the boards were dry, I lined them up and attached a few extra boards to the back with liquid nails to hold everything together. To get that coastal feel, I brushed on some gray and white chalk paint mixed with a bit of water and alternated boards.
And of course, I added several starfish that were affixed with hot glue.
This was such a fun and simple piece to work on and I feel like it totally screams “SUMMER!”
