My aunt and uncle own a turf farm. I'm not trying to brag (did it work?) but the reason I bring this up is that, growing up, they were always just there (great material for constructing forts) and I simply associated them with rolls of turf.
Well it turns out my little association is all wrong and the pallet actually lives a very famous and glamorous life. Who'd of guessed? Recently I've noticed pallet furnishings all over Pinterest and, as that is where I spend copious amounts of my time, the whole thing is really having an impact on my life.
I'm starting to look at pallets in a whole new light and here are some of my favorites. I must say that although I am drawn to the au-natural wood pallets I can completely respect the painted ones too!

| Pallet coffee table on casters |

| It's hard to go wrong with a Union Jack |

| Wine bottle storage |
 |
| This low profile sofa highlights the huge windows perfectly |

| Lovely gray headboard |
These images have really got my mind racing with all the amazing things I could make. I guess if my aunt and uncle notice a shortage in their pallet supply they'll have me at the top of the list of potential thieves (most likely rightfully so).
Enjoy!

Love the Pallets....... I want a loft now because they won't go in my 50's house.
ReplyDeleteThe pallet headboard would be really nice for the lake

Hey Calli.......Glad you are putting my boots to use! I was home a week ago, and decided that I didn't want the boots anymore, so glad to see you like them. I bought them in the mid 1980's, and very lightly wore them. They were the style for dress boots back then.
ReplyDeleteAwesome blog Calli!
