I was very crafty over my spring break. I worked from 9 until 10 every day crafting things and didn't regret it one bit. One of my many project was taking apart two wood pallets and making old barn signs out of the boards. I googled some witty sayings about tractors and farm things and came up with about 20 signs. Th paint I used was simple acrylic craft paint and I put backings on them. The signs in the picture say: "John Deere", "She Thinks My Tractors Sexy", Why Farm at all Unless You Farmall?" and lastly "farmer/noun: one who is outstanding in his field." I made others that said things like "Manure Happens", "Rock Me Mama Like A Wagon Wheel", and "Life's a Garden. Dig It!" I sold them at the local Farm Show that weekend for 15 or 2 for 25. I sold ones that I didn't think would ever sell. I ended up making about 65 bucks which I was more than happy about because I was considering them not selling at all. The rest will probably be put in an Etsy store that I'll set up.
