At House by Hoff, April had a blank wall in her dining area that needed a little something. ”I considered doing some pallet art. I considered hanging some plates,” she says. ”Then, in a moment of sheer genius, I considered doing both.”

It’s a double hitter–two pallet projects in one day! I just had to show off the great wall clock Mandy–and her husband–at Sugar Bee Crafts made from a pallet.

I’m lucky enough to have Karianne of Thistlewood Farms as one of my contributors over at one of my other sites. Check out this amazing desk she built from a pallet and shared over at Infarrantly Creative.

Tracie blogs over at The Bunch. She’s been trying various ways to get a garden started in a challenging backyard environment for the past few years. This season, she hit upon a great way to make inexpensive garden boxes using salvaged pallets.

Alex blogs at Happy, Healthy & Domestic. She explains how this project started: ”My dad was in town visiting and he needed to pick up some flooring from Lumber Liquidators. While we were out back pick it up, we noticed a pallet in the trash and a bunch of wood to the side. We asked if we could have the pallet and 4 of the wood pieces and they said no problem.”

“There is an alley right behind our apartment building that always has the BEST stuff!” explains Jessi from Practically Functional. “I found this pallet out there one day and knew exactly what I wanted to do with it.”

You never know what someone is going to think of to make from a pallet, these days. At Flamingo Toes, Bev made a really neat looking wall clock from one.

Over at Namely Original, Emily tells us, “While we were cleaning up/organizing our storage rooms in our basement, we found an old shelf that was in pieces. It was a cheap laminate thing that was wobbly and good for nothing, really. So to strengthen it we used some–you guessed it–pallet wood.”
