Another Re-purposed on Purpose Project

I had seen a similar project on hometalk, which inspired me to try this with pallet wood. I tried to simulate the dog eared fence post using the chop saw and a drill bit for the notches. This project takes about 1 full pallet (top ). I wanted to add a bit of color and saw these cute little bird laser cutouts at Michaels, so I painted the bird a color to compliment my house ...»

DIY Wood Mirror Frame

We built a chunky, angled wood mirror frame to up the style around a plain, cheap mirror! It cost around $10 and took about 2 hours. We love the outcome!

  • Cut all your pieces, then assemble.  We used glue, nails and screws to hold it all together.
  • Adding the center shelf before placing the backing on.

  • Drill: My little 14v Makita cordless drill is my alltime favourite. It's a smaller scale drill that REALLY packs a big punch. It fits a woman's hand like a glove, losing the bulk. I recommend the 2 pack kits with the chuck / chuckless. 3
  • Bits: this is the purse of my dreams! This all in one Makita tool bit case allows you to tote whatever you need anywhere you go. I'd be lost without it. 2
  • Palm sander: I have both a clamp on style and orbital. I admit to loving the clamp on motion better, but love the ease of the velcro attachments on the orbital. Which is your preference? 1
