Hello Summer Mason Jar DIY Pallet Shape

Hi friends! It's Jennifer on the blog this afternoon to share a project I  created with one of the fabulous DIY Pallet Shapes!  The Mason Jar DIY Pallet Shape is the perfect project for summer  and I  wanted to create a fun, personalized door sign. 

I  began by lightly sanding the front of my pallet; this step is not necessary but helps the paint go on smoothly.  Using chalk paint in a light mint green, I  painted the bottom portion of my pallet. I  allowed areas of the wood to show through to give the pallet a distressed look.  Once dry, I  marked off the "lid" of the pallet with painters tape and applied grey chalk paint. I  love the two colors together!  

Next, using a cut file and a dark grey matte vinyl I   applied my "Hello Summer" to the center of my pallet.  I  sanded the area where I  would apply my vinyl to ensure it would attach to the wood.  I  purchased a summer garland from a local craft store and affixed the top and bottom with floral wire.

Then using a hot glue gun, I  affixed different sized flowers around my wreath to accent.  

To finish, I  punched holes at the top  in order to string seam binding for hanging my pallet. Clear Scraps offers a large variety of DIY Pallet Shapes for your home decor projects!  Visit the Clear Scraps shop to see the other great designs! Have a  great day!
