Pallet Wood Reindeer Pattern

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

Make the multi-layered versions of our salvaged wood Reindeer (shown) or make the self-standing 3D versions. Individualize your Reindeer by adding colorful wood scarves or belled collars, varying the body length, tilting the heads or rotating the eyes. Our plans include full-size patterns and step-by-step instructions to ensure your success making these fun projects.

Your Pallet Wood Reindeer can be painted using color washes that shows off the unique character of the pallet boards or simply using solid colors. (44" tall x 16" wide)

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