Home Sweet Home

Living in an RV for the last 8 months, does not mean I can't have a cozy living area. The pallets my husband brings home get plenty of use.

Today's projects...

Made the table for a neighbor. Also been building her a set of steps for her RV. Also been making flower pots out of 5 gallon buckets, also gives me a chance to use up a lot of partial ...»
cans of spray paint. These could also make nice trash cans for a bath or kids room. Living in an RV park does not give me many places to plant flowers, so I will have these setting all over my deck.

Mural's I painted for the grand kids.

I enjoy paint murals for the grand kids, but now they are all getting too big for this kind of stuff. Guess they can't stay little forever.

  • Made this for $15.00. Made from pallet wood, $6.50 for rope, $8.00 for dollar store carpet runner, and a 5 gallon bucket I had. Sure beats spending 40 or 50 bucks at pet store.

Cat condo.

Made this condo for my daughters cat Willow. Used pallet wood, some rope, carpet and 5 gallon bucket.

Table I am working on made from pallet boards.

Made this for an outside dinner table. Treated with linseed oil. Not quite finished yet, but looking pretty good.

Bird houses made from pallet wood

Some bird houses I made with pallet wood. Pallets are really clean and only used for shipping electrical supplies. Any suggestions on other things I could make. Have lots of pallets.

    I go to the national wildlife website to get information for basic height, hole size and depth ...»
    based on what type of birds I want to attract. I make the width depending on what size wood I have available. I always make holes for ventilation, and score the front panel in side so the young birds have a grip to climb out of the box. The website also tells you the best place to put your houses and how high to hang them. Most of them are 4x4, 6x6 or 6x8. Have fun, I know I do..

    With another little section and some hinges you could make a quick cute room divider.
