How sweet is this DIY photo frame made with a transfer on to recycled pallet wood?

We are constantly needing new picture frames in my house. I just made a mini picture frame from an old mason jar lid, and already I have new photos that need framing up. So you can imagine how jazzed I was to run across this clever DIY photo frame idea on Southern Revivals!

To make your own DIY photo frame from reclaimed wood, you will need:

printed photos (print them reversed, so the transfer won’t be all backwardsy)
a wood pallet, plus tools to disassemble
nails or wood glue (to attach your back piece of wood to the front pieces)
Mod Podge Photo Transfer Medium
sponge brush
patience
damp towel or sponge
sanding block (optional, if you want a distressed look)
Matte Mod Podge
paint brush
