How about turning that old wooden palette into your wedding itinerary!
Supply List:
1 Wooden palette
1 Drop Cloth
1 Hammer
1 Bucket
1 Quart of Paint (Your color of choosing) We Suggest a Light Color
Acrylic Craft Paint 2 oz Bottle – Dark Color So Your Writing Stands Out
Sandpaper
1 Cup of Water
3” Paint Brush
½” Paint Brush
Dried or Fresh Flowers to Attach to Palette
Let’s Get Started!
- In a well-ventilated area layout, your drop cloth.
- Place your palette on drop cloth.
- With your hammer look over your palette and tap in nails that are not flush.
- Take your sandpaper and go over edges that you want smoother.
- In you bucket mix your paint and about 1 cup of water. The water will dilute the paint and help achieve the rustic look. If you do not want a distressed look. Do not add water.
- Take your 3” paint brush and start painting!
- Let your palette dry for about 2 hours
- After 2 hours you can either add another coat of paint or take your sandpaper and go over areas you want to distress more
- Let palette dry for another 2 hours
- With your ½” paint brush: Write your itinerary on each slat
- If you are using fresh flowers have your florist attach flowers to palette the day of the wedding
