Vintage Santa Christmas Decor Made From Old Pallets ‪#‎HolidayCheer

Thanks so much to Karen - The Graphics Fairy I have myself some cute new Christmas Art. I used old pallets and painted them a pale blue and then used her Free Graphic and glued it to the pallets. I then lightly distressed the edges and used spray modge podge to seal the project. It is a perfect vintage match for my newly painted living room!. 2013

my new piece of #christmas #vintage #pallet #art

I used a board on the back and screwed it into the three pallet boards. I spray painted the boards with one of my favorite dusty blue paint.

while the paint was drying I printed off this GORGEOUS vintage "god jul" Swedish Santa http://thegraphicsfairy.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/11/Swedish-Santa-Image-Graphicsfairy-672x1024.jpg

once it is printed I glued it to the boards and used (as you can see here from an older project) my Spray MODGE PODGE to seal the paper to the pallet

and her you can see the finished project. My cute Vintage "god jul" Swedish Santa Pallet art. All ready for Christmas!

DIY Flower Pot Christmas Tree

This idea of flower pot Christmas tree came to mind when I saw mini ornaments in "Merry minis" section of Michaels Craft store.

I did not have enough time to make my own mini ornaments so I ended up using only the ones I bought at the store. Let's see how.
