So I’ve whitewashed my pallet and gathered up my old rusty tools and stuff. Now how in the world do I attach them to my sign? Thanks y’all for any tips!
If you drilled some holes behind where each tool will be and use small wire to tie them on, they would stay. Use small holes and have a layout marked to know where to put the holes to line up an not show behind each tool. Wire approximately the same color would not hardly show at all. Hope this helps Jodee
They’re pretty heavy. Also, they are somewhat sentimental. The traps we found on our property when we started clearing it to build and the other tools were given to me by my dad and grandad so I don’t want to ruin them with glue.
Thanks so so much for the suggestion though. I appreciate your time!
The only other idea off the top of my head would be zip ties. You would still be able to see the clear ones to a certain degree but it would not damage any of your items ..

You could maybe do more than one on the heavier tools??!
Sorry the pic is upside down 🤪
I was thinking something along the lines of gorilla glue, how heavy are the tools ?

Perhaps Loctite PL premium? Works indoors and out, but it's pretty permanent.
See above reply. And thank you for your suggestion
