25 more ways of turning pallets into unique pieces of furniture

25 more ways of turning pallets into unique pieces of furniture
A while ago we showed you an article called “21 ways of turning pallets into unique pieces of furniture” where we enumerated a series of original items you could create using pallets. The list was quite long but definitely not exhaustive and since we’ve received good feedback we decided to continue with a second part of the article where we present you even more unique projects you can create with the help of pallets. We tried to come up with new examples, arranged according to the type of product you can create. Shelves. 1. This is an ingenious project created by a couple that opened a wine tasting room and decided to go with a rustic look. 2. Even though shelves were created as a functional way of adding some useful storage space, they can also be used as a decorative space in the form of display shelves. 3. One place where you can never have too much storage space is the kitchen. 4. I personally find this piece very interesting. Sofas and benches 5. 6. 7. 8. 9. 10. 11.

DIY BLOG | BLOG ABOUT DIY FASHION CRAFTS AND A TRENDY LIFESTYLEDIY BLOG | BLOG ABOUT DIY FASHION CRAFTS AND A TRENDY LIFESTYLE Wood Planter Box After we built the planter box in the previous post for Stephanie, Dez was jealous and she wanted something cool like that for her own garden. So this is what she got and it’s by far one of our favorite DIY projects that we’ve done. It was actually kinda tedious, but totally worth it. After constructing the main box frame from cedar and redwood, the wood for the chevron patterns was mostly leftover pallet stock from various projects. We also used some wood from an old bed frame a neighbor gave us and since we’re revamping our bridal show booth, we didn’t need the white trim molding from that anymore, so we cut it up and used it too. Since this box is going to be the new temporary home for Dez’s avocado tree we wanted to put wheels on it so we could easily roll it around the backyard pavement. Now that you’ve seen this, be sure to check out more updates on our personal blog, and on our Zelo Photography blog…and spread the word!

Cork Tree Ornament Today’s DIY is a fun one… and absolutely perfect for the holidays! These little tree ornaments make the best hostess gifts… or just a fun little weekend DIY to help get you into the holiday spirit. While I was home for the Thanksgiving break, my mom and I took to a huge bag of corks (are we the only family out there that imbibes copious quantities of wine?) and dusted off our glue guns. We made quite an assortment of these fun little tree ornaments… getting creative and adding buttons, scraps fo fabric, and even rows of beads. We had all of the materials around our house.

IHeart Organizing sharpie designs Recently I stumbled upon this artist who creates all of her room installations entirely with sharpie makers. Charlotte Mann creates a room within a room white only a white wall "canvas" and thick black marker pens. Personally I love drawing with sharpies because of their density and weight!

DIY #1 Un carnet brodé | My Rainy DaysMy Rainy Days C’est parti pour ce premier DIY, relativement facile à réaliser avec un peu de patience et de concentration! Pour ce DIY il vous faut : - Un carnet à couverture vierge - Le modèle à télécharger ICI - Un compas (ou une grosse aiguille) - Une aiguille - Du fil de la couleur de votre choix (j’ai ici utilisé du fil à repriser, car légèrement plus épais que du fil à coudre) Après avoir imprimé le modèle à la taille désirée, placez-le sur la couverture du carnet et maintenez-le en place avec du ruban adhésif. Placez le carnet ouvert, la couverture contre une surface adaptée, et aux endroits marqués d’un point rouge sur le modèle, réalisez des trous à l’aide de la pointe de votre compas. Retirez le modèle de la couverture et aidez-vous-en pour tracer légèrement au crayon et à la règle les lignes qui serviront à vous guider lors de la broderie. Insérez le fil dans le chas de l’aiguille, faites un noeud au bout et brodez! Et voilà!

Christmas Wedding Inspiration: DIY Today I've put together some links to DIY projects that are perfect for your wedding and could easily be adapted to have around at Christmas. I do like using baby’s breath at weddings (as seen in my baby's breath floral inspiration), how lovely are these garlands with little hanging paper birds. DIY tutorial here via Once Wed A simple DIY centrepiece idea that can be easily personalised with different motifs, wood and wool colour choices and flowers. I think they’d also make fab little table numbers. For the complete DIY tutorial here via the Wedding Chicks, photo by Julie Harmsen Photography Something about dried fruit and dates in particular always make me think of Christmas, one of those things that always seem to pop up in the house at this time of year. Lovely little DIY paper lanterns; hang them along the path to your venue or have them dotted around just outside the windows.
