Pumpkin Shaker Pallet

Hello! Its Jennifer here on the blog today to share a fall themed home decor project I created using some awesome Clear Scraps products!  If you love to  make your own DIY fall projects then Clear Scraps is your one stop shop!  

I started with the Circle Medium DIY Pallet Shape as my base and painted the top and bottom slats with brown acrylic paint.  I only applied a light coat to ensure the wood grain to show through. 

Once my paint was dry, I  adhered a strip of patterned paper to the center slat using my Beacon 3-in-1 Adhesive.  I cut the excess off with scissors followed by using my sanding tool to smooth any rough edges. 

I  set aside my pallet to work on assembling the Tall Pumpkin Mini Shaker Shape. First, I painted the top chipboard frame with orange chalk paint. I also painted the edges of the two middle frames.  

I adhered patterned paper to the chipboard base then adhered my middle chipboard frames as shown.  You can add any filler you wish; here I used chunky copper glitter as well as small white beads.  

I affixed the acrylic piece as well as the top chipboard frame with my Beacon Adhesive.  It is helpful to use clips to hold your pieces in place as it dries.  I  did add a coat of orange chalk paint around the edge of the shaker as well. 

I affixed my shaker to the pallet using the Beacon Adhesive as well as added a small sticker and paper flowers. 

Here, I layered two 3x4 cards together adorned with a metal clip.  The entire piece is popped up using foam tape.  Lastly, I added fall colored ribbon at the top of my pallet and affixed with a hot glue gun.
