Step 1: Paint the surface of the container

Start by coloring the board the way you want.

Step 1: Painting the Pallet Plaque Begin by painting the pallet plaque sign however you like.

I painted the palette with three different colors, leaving the natural part. Then let it dry.

I painted the pallet sign 3 different colors, leaving one section natural. Then let it dry.

Step 2 - Draw the board

Then apply a mask to the board to hide the area where the dye has been applied.

Step 2: Paint the Chalkboard Next put a piece of painters tape across the chalkboard to mask where the paint goes.

Paint the tree, then remove the tape and let the board dry completely.

Paint the wood, then remove the tape and let the chalkboard dry completely.

Then add a few touches of Treasure Gold for a modern look.

Next, add some touches of Treasure Gold paint for a modern look.

These golden dots are perfect for a golden sound reminiscent of an animal print. Use colored dots to hide any blue imperfections.

These little golden blobs are perfect for a touch of gold, reminiscent of animal print. Use the paint blobs to cover any places in the blue paint that aren't so perfect.

Step 3 ፡ Color the hanger with crystal handles

Repeat the same process on the glass containers as before. Use duct tape to seal the wood area. Then paint the tree turquoise. Let it dry completely.

Step 3: Painting the Hanger with Crystal Knobs Repeat the same process as earlier on the crystal knobs. Use the painters tape to block a section of the wood. Then paint the wood with the teal paint. Let it dry completely.

Then, apply some Treasure Gold to the board in the same way.

Next, follow it up with some Treasure Gold paint in the same way as with the chalkboard.

Step 4: Draw the jar

Now paint the pot of soup light blue. Let it dry and apply another color.

Step 4: Paint the Soup Can Now paint the soup can with the light blue paint. Let it dry and give it another coat of paint.

Step 5 - Assemble the Command Center

Let's start assembling this command center. Start by removing the hooks that hang from the back of the crystal holders.

Step 5: Assemble the Command Center Let's get started assembling this command center. Start by removing the hanging hooks on the backside of the hanger with crystal knobs.

Then remove the cord from the sticker palette.

Next, remove the twine from the Pallet Sign with Clips.

Take leather (or tape) and wooden blocks.

Get a strip of leather (or some ribbon) and the wood block pieces.

On a 20-21" 1x2 board, add some E6000 glue. Also add a line of hot glue. Hot glue sticks instantly, but E6000 hardens slowly.

On the 1x2 board that is 20-21 inches long, add a bunch of E6000 glue to the top. Also add a line of hot glue. The hot glue will hold it instantly while the E6000 cures slowly.

Place the board on the back of the slide and mark the skids. Glue small boards under the ceilings so that they fit snugly against the wall. Then let the glue dry for 4 hours.

Place the board across the backside of the pallet plaque and the pallet sign. Hot glue the smaller boards on the bottom of the surfaces, so they rest against the wall properly. Then let the glue dry for 4 hours.

Then attach the soup pot to the skin. Hit one end of the boat with a small nail and hammer. You can also use hot glue.

Next, attach the soup can with the leather strip. Pound one end of it on the pallet plaque using a small tack and a hammer. Hot glue could also be used.

Then add some hot glue to the soup pot.

Then add a strip of hot glue onto the soup can.

Then cover the pot with parchment and cover with parchment.

Then stick the can to the pallet and wrap the leather around it.

Lay the other side of the skin down, do it well.

Tack the other side of the leather strip down keeping it pulled tight.

Glue 2" pieces of Zip-Thai Mark leather to a hanger with glass handles.

Hot glue 2 inch stripes of leather from the pallet sign with clips to the hanger with crystal knobs.

It's good enough to hold hot glue, but for extra strength... and I added nails to the image.

The hot glue is enough to hold it, but I added tacks for extra strength...and the look.

Step 6 ፡ Hook and ring attachment board

Now add the hook and loop strip to the pallets. Place the hook on the side plate on the board and the loop on the side of the board.

Step 6: Hook and Loop Closure Chalkboard Now add a strip of hook and loop to the pallet plaque. Put the hook side on the pallet plaque and the loop/soft side on the chalkboard.
