I happen to have a pile of pallet wood in my garage right now. Doesn’t everyone? Anyways, I wanted to start creating with some of this wood instead of just hoarding it. I was also itching to start working on some Christmas projects!

I grabbed some craft letters at Hobby Lobby and got to work. I stained them with wood stain first, then I painted them white with craft paint, and lastly I painted them with red craft paint. I gave the letters a little bit of distressing with a sanding block, didn’t want them to look too pristine next to the pallet wood.

When the letters were dry I used some wood glue to attach them to the pallet wood. I had my hubby attach the three boards together much like we did when I made my Autumn Pallet Sign.

I think this Joy Pallet Sign would be the perfect Christmas decoration for the porch. Can’t you just see it propped up in the corner by the door?

I must admit….I love love how it turned out! However, it will be on it’s way to my holiday show coming up!

So I must ask: Have you already decorated for Christmas? I have not and I’ve really been wanting to!!! We’re going out of town for Thanksgiving and it would be so nice to come home to the house decked out in red and green!

A girl can dream right?
