Build a Rustic Shadowbox with Wood from an Old Pallet

Using reclaimed wood is a great way to get an instant “vintage” look and a great way to help re-use and recycle materials that might otherwise end up in a landfill. It’s the perfect material for building a rustic shadowbox!

Precision micro tools from Proxxon make it easy to  set up a portable wood-working shop, right in your craft room! They are compact, lightweight and easy to use. You get all the quality of full-size shop tools but in a convenient format perfect for smaller crafts!

The Proxxon Table Saw is a bench top tool that gives you perfectly straight cuts in wood, non-ferrous metals, plastics, Plexiglas, fiber-glass reinforced sheets, foam and many other materials.

Check out this video, and the corresponding blog post, to learn how you can make a rustic shadowbox from reclaimed pallet wood.

The blog post is on the Proxxon Blog at Make a Rustic Shadowbox from Reclaimed Pallet Wood

If you love vintage Christmas decorations, you’re going to love how the finished box was decorated. Joe Morgan pulled out his collection of treasures to build a fantastic scene! Look for the blog post coming up on Thursday, December 10, 2015, for the finished project.

Happy Crafting!
