Hello and welcome everyone to this section, a little bit of my creativity for you. Today I'm going to show you how to repurpose leftover materials from previous projects. One of those materials is wooden pallets—I didn't have that many, and I thought about making a mini surfboard, as a keychain or pendant. My idea is for it to be a keychain, but the idea of making a mini surfboard could work for various projects, like school projects or crafts with a tropical touch.

Step by step

Paso 1/Step 1
I started by joining 4 wooden pallets, and I also placed two pieces of another pallet on what will be the back so that the 4 pallets of the base are well joined.


Paso 2/Step 2
When you apply the silicone, let it dry completely and use the clip to better join the paddles with the silicone so it is stronger.



Paso 3/Step 3
Once the base was completely dry, I started to mark the shape of the board and carefully cut it out because the paddles could break.


Paso 4/Step 4
Now that the board was formed, all that was left was to decorate it. For that, I used green, pink, and black markers. Paint would also work, but I didn't have any. My idea was to add color and beachy details, so I started by marking two half-curves and adding the colors. Then, on the green curve, I drew a sea turtle.



Paso 5/Step 5
Continuing with the decoration, on the pink curve I drew a coconut palm, and on top I made a hibiscus flower and added the two colors to finish the decoration.


Paso 6/Step 6
As a final step, I added the chain and ring so that it would look like a keychain or pendant. I did this part with the help of a compass, which has a part that is a pin, and since it has a sharp point, it was easy to make the hole to attach the chain.

And so, my Hive friends, I made this craft with leftover materials. Let me know what you think of the idea in the comments. Until next time!
