Pallet Wood Pine Tree Pattern

Make this attractive Pine Tree entirely from boards salvaged from free shipping pallets! Display it indoors or outside.

Using wood from recycled pallets just makes sense...not only do you save money making this attractive display but you also help the environment by saving trees and keeping used pallets out of landfills.

Full-size patterns and complete instructions are included. Paint this unique display using a color wash as shown to allow the texture of the recycled boards to show through or paint a solid color. Add some pizzazz to your Pine Tree for the holidays by hanging real ornaments as shown or wrapping it with real garland. (73" tall)

NOTE: Pine boards or low-cost fence boards can also be used to make this fun project in lieu of salvaged pallet boards.
