Etsy Product Sneak Peek!

I have been trying to find the best things to make from recycled pallets based on the board sizes and came up with 2 ideas to start.

First is a door hanger plaque. Played with dimensions for a while and finally came up with a really good size.

My daughter has already painted one of my prototypes and my brother's wife will be getting her creative on by painting some and my wife and mom have expressed an interest in painting them too!! Also, these may be good for custom requests.


I also plan to offer these in the Woodworking -> Supply category as unfinished blanks to allow others to order in bulk and get creative with them.


Second idea was a balancing wine bottle holder. The thinner, wider pallet board I've found would be good for this. The daughter and I got a hole saw "kit" to make the door hangers so hopefully I should have the right size bit for a wine bottle neck already. No samples yet but that'll be the next to prototype.
