Introduction: Halloween Pallet Jacko Lantern

Created some Halloween Jacko Lanterns using repurposed pallet wood. A family of 4 is really fun to have! Happy Halloween :)

Supplies

For this project we need:

  • Pallet Wood


  • Protective equipment like:
  • Face mask
  • Glasses
  • Gloves


  • Sanding Tool
  • Hammer
  • Measuring Tape
  • Nails
  • Handsaw or Chop-saw
  • Knife
  • Pliers
  • Pencil
  • and Paint of your choice

Step 1: Dismantling the Pallet

Using 2 hammers I am dismantling the pallet. My aim is to reuse all the nails used in building this pallet so that, I can use them in building my project.

Step 2: Sanding

Lets start the project by sanding the pallet planks to give them a nice and smooth texture.

Step 3: Wood Cutting

Then using either a chop-saw or a hand-saw I am cutting all the pallet planks that I need for this project.

It totally depends on you, how tall you want your Lanterns to be, so I am not providing any measurements here.

Step 4: Assembly

Once all the sides were ready, its was time for me to join them all together.

Using wood glue I am join all the sides. My clamps are way too small, so I am using a paver to apply the pressure.

Step 5: Coloring

I applied orange color to the body of the lantern and black color to the stems of the lantern.

Now, its time for me to paint the scary faces on the lanterns, let me use my imagination and make them as scary as I can.


Step 6:

Boom, So this is how the final setup looks like.
