  • This quirky, double wide sized pallet wood chair is all decked out, ready for a great summer read.
  • Two pallets, 4 legs and two armrest boards are really all it took. So easy! The trick is to ensure you find two pallets that are similar in size.
  • Let's add more quirk to make it totally yours! This signboard was used as an armrest. Note how wide the board is... perfect for my coffee cup. Priorities here...
  • This leg has an antique level attached. This project is a little like 'Where's Waldo's Wild Additions?'
  • Pallet markings were celebrated by placing them in prominent places. Coffee bean sacks acting like large pillow cases were just tucked in place. No sewing required. 2
  • For the legs, a little bracing was required inside the pallet so the leg had something to stabilize against.
  • Tell me that isn't one big cool chair to curl up in! But let's add some comfort...
  • 5" foam cut to size (new from a foam shop) was key for the ultimate comfort.
  • This is a pallet SOFA I made last year, decked out in total bohemian style craziness. The build is much more size customized: http://www.funkyjunkinteriors.net/2011/08/how-i-built-pallet-sofa-part-2.html

A two pallet chair ANYONE can build in a jiffy!

There's nothing like a need to bring on a new project!

pallets and little more. I kid you not! This is the easiest build in the world and you'll wonder why you didn't think of it first!

http://backwoodscottage.blogspot.com/2012/10...

I had fun redoing my Potting Bench for Fall. The gray milk paint turned out better than I anticipated.

  • A smoky blue color updated the worn pine wood.  Lots of ledges and drawers give plenty of space for storage.
