Day Fifteen - Drink up!

 I have seen all kinds of crafts and DIYs with pallets (you know, the wood things that you find in warehouses, holding products as for trucks move them about). But the first pallet craft I went after was one that had me BUILDING pallets - mini pallets.

We never seem to have enough coasters in this house - EVER. So, after finding the original PIN here, I bought a bag of craft sticks, borrow some kitchen shears, got out the glue gun and found some wood stain in the garage.


First, I cut off all the rounded ends of the craft sticks. Then I put the stain on a rag and rubbed all the sticks with the stain and tossed them in a metal pan to dry while I did the others. After that, heat up the hot glue gun and just start building. Tada. Now I have three sets of four coasters. I am loving it. Everything is cuter in miniature.
