The Story
Using wood from recycled pallets just makes sense...not only do you save money making this attractive wall art but you also help the environment by saving trees and keeping used pallets out of landfills.
Our plan includes full-size patterns and complete instructions to make both the baseball and football wall plaques. Paint if desired or simply seal to allow the texture of the recycled pallet wood to show through. (Baseball 14" diameter, Football 22" long)

Places to find Pallets - Contact Local Companies that receive larger inventory items such as an Appliance Store, Garden Stores, Nurseries and Lumber Yards. Do a search on Craigslist.ord using search words "Wooden Pallets" or "Pallets". Drive through the nearest Industrial Area.
