Child's pallet and recycled cedar fencing picnic table

I made this pallet child's picnic table from 2 pallets and recycled old cedar fencing. My daughter has 5 girls ranging from 4 to 10. With them in mind I designed them a table that would fit all the girls needs. Plus add an extra table for adults when the girls are not here. My daughter tore down her old fencing, I asked for her to bring it to me to recycle. So far I have been able to recycle a lot of it. I stained the pallet 2x4" with some deck stain that was in our garage we acquired for free. I sealed the cedar with 4 coats of clear deck sealer which was also free. The only expense was the deck screws to assemble. I made this in one afternoon, and finished the sealant in 2 days.

    Your pallet table looks fabulous. I am so enjoying seeing all the different things people do with recycled pallet wood! Thanks for commenting on my mailbox. I think we both enjoy home projects and repurposing!

    Ohhh this is so cool! This pattern is exceptional! Love how you can scoot the benches underneath. I've never loved having to lift my legs over picnic table seats and this is perfect!

    Thank you. I agree on the up and over technique. I wanted it to be functional even when the girls aren't here.
