The Story
Using wood from recycled pallets just makes sense...not only do you save money making these attractive displays but you also help the environment by saving trees and keeping used pallets out of landfills.
This eye-catching project can be made with either the Baby Jesus in Manger silhouette (shown) or the Holy Family silhouette (inset). Full-size patterns are included for both options.
