I've been wanting to make a pallet wooden sign for a long time. I can't take credit for a lot of this project because I could've done it without my dad. He found the pallet and made the sign. All I did was paint it.
I've always loved the song "It is well with my soul," and love the reminder that whatever God has us go through that we can take comfort that we are taken care of and that we trust in the Lord.
I also love that my grandma's headstone says It is well with my soul, So I think of her whenever I hear that song or see those words.
My dad found a pallet and was able to make two signs (my mom made the other one). He pulled apart the wood, sawed the boards in half and nailed the pieces of wood together using smaller wooden pieces on the back.
I used grey outdoor stain that my parents had. I let it dry for a few hours, then I penciled on my letters. I looked at a few different signs and prints with the same saying and combined a few that I liked. I saw a lot of tutorials with using stencils or a cricut which would've been nice. But I just did my best doing it free hand. I used white and yellow acrylic paint for the letters.
This project ended up being totally free since I had all the paint and my dad found the pallet. I've been changing the colors in our living, dining room and kitchen to grey, yellow and blue and love that this matches perfectly.
