Step 1 : Measure and cut your pallet wood to make three 13″ pieces. Also cut 2 scrap pieces about 10″ long to support the back.
Step 2 : Lay the 13″ pieces side by side and hammer the supporting pieces on the back to secure all the pieces together.
Step 3 : Take your Chalky Finish and paint the front and sides of your pallet board.
Step 4 : Once dry lay your heart cut out in the middle and hammer the nails about a 1/4″ into the wood around the cut out.
Step 5 : Next take your string and tie it around one of your nails. Then in a random and scattered pattern, wrap the string around all of the nails. Don’t stop until you’re satisfied with the look. Then tie a knot on the last nail and cut off the excess.
