Thanksgiving "Grateful" DIY Wood Sign

Create a beautiful modern farmhouse inspired wood pallet sign using our Thanksgiving free printable! We designed two different signs that you will print on 11x17 paper. Simply print and cut the sign. Glue a mini clip onto the narrow wood pallet and clip the printable onto the board. Add a little pop of color to the sign by stringing wood beads and wool felt balls to make the cord to hang the sign. Display above a table or on a door.

We love using these craft banners for projects. The Thanksgiving stencil is perfect for this project. Add some faux greenery and a little pop of orange to the banner with the darling mini pumpkins.

Adhere faux greenery pieces to the top of banner. Add mini pumpkins with glue gun as well for a fun fall touch.
