Baby Danilo's Pallet Toy Box

We are so excited that we have so many friends that are having babies. Not only because we get to swoon over the tiny little hands and feet but that we also get to make them one of a kind, creative gifts.


A few weeks ago we made our friends newborn, Lucas, a name coat rack for his room. You can find it here if you missed it. We had such a fun time making it that we were really excited to make baby Danilo's blanket box.


We had some left over pallet wood from other projects and put them the good use. We made sure to clean and sand down the wood really well to make sure the wood doesn't splinter. We had to be sure to make it as smooth as possible.


After building the frame with 1x2's and MDF for the bottom, we cut and attached the pallet wood. It took about three coast of grey spray paint and two coats of poly to smooth it out.


I love the details of the "D" and the spaceship. We popped some casters on and voila!
