DIY Mini "Pallet" Art



To make this, you will need:

  • hot glue gun
  • mod podge
  • 4x6 print
  • 5x7 frame
  • popsicle sticks
  • exacto knife
  • frame
  • sponge brush

Start by putting the popsicle sticks on the back of your print, brush mod podge a section at a time to adhere the popsicles sticks as straight as possible.  Let dry, then flip over and mod podge the front, being sure to get the ends of the print. (fyi: this will take away your picture gloss!)



Once completely dry, flip the print down and take your exacto knife to cut between each popsicle stick and through the print. Cut, cut, cut!


Be sure to keep you sticks/print in the correct order.


Insert your choice of paper into your choice of frame, then place popsicle sticks print side up, straighten & center, then begin hot gluing one by one to paper inside frame.


 Perfectly imperfect!


Hang & enjoy!
(This would be fun to do with pictures, patterned paper as your background, using bigger craft sticks, etc. The possibilities are endless!)
