  • The complete American Flag on the buffet in my formal dining room.  I love the juxtaposition of the big trash day pallet with my crystal chandelier.
  • After you have disassembled your pallet trace your cross (or whatever you want to use) in the center of the wood.
  • Paint the pallet planks alternating red and white.  Paint a small navy square in the top left corner. Be sure you don't paint over your traced section.  I used $1.00 crafters paint for all my paints.

  • Turning a pallet into a vertical garden is an inexpensive way to create something unique and beautiful for your yard. 2
  • This pallet (found on big trash day) was cut down four planks on the front and two on the back and then painted blue. 1
  • Landscape fabric (which can be purchased at most hardware stores) was attached to the back and bottom of the pallet with a staple gun.

  • A vintage door plate and glass knob are perfect for this door.  Not to mention this knob will make a beautiful "hook" for Emmerson's things.
  • The door with mirror makes a perfect backdrop for photos... showing off all sides of this cute girl.
  • Subtle bird stencils and hooks from the Goodwill make this thrifty salvaged piece both pretty and functional.
