DIY Pallet Clipboard Frame

Creating a DIY pallet clipboard frame is a fun and budget-friendly way to add a touch of rustic charm to your home decor. By upcycling a simple wooden pallet into a functional and stylish clipboard frame, you can showcase your favorite photos, artwork, or to-do lists in a unique way. Get creative with paint or decorations to personalize your frame and make it truly one-of-a-kind. With just a few simple materials and a bit of creativity, you can transform an ordinary pallet into a beautiful and practical piece that adds character to any room in your home. Happy crafting!

Here is all you need:

1 small square pallet ( I got mine at Michael’s)

Oversized bulldog clip (Mine in the Heidi Swapp mint one)

Painter’s Tape ( I am partial to Frog Tape Brand)
Wood Stain (I used Weathered Oak by Minwax)
Acrylic or Craft Paint in desired color
Glue
Command Strip or Saw tooth Hanger

Steps:

Place tape on your pallet in your desired pattern. I did a stripe at the bottom and a chevron in the middle.

Using a rag or a foam brush, lightly brush on stain. It dries almost instantly, but wait about 5 minutes before removing tape.
After removing tape, use another clean foam brush to paint on your paint. I brushed very lightly around the stain lines, but didn’t worry about the lines being too perfect.
Let paint dry and then put glue on the back of your bulldog clip.

 I used super glue, but hot glue would work well too. Just use whatever strong glue you have on hand. I pressed it into position for a minute or two and then let the glue set.

I am going to use a command strip to hang this, but if you prefer not to use those, attach a saw tooth hanger on the back.

 I love this adorable three chicks print from Minted! It is going to be adorable in our nursery!

And that’s all there is to it!
