I am loving pallet projects! I mean who can say no to free wood! 
A couple weeks ago 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. SCORE!!
I started by taking the pallet apart. I removed the wood from the bottom. There were four pieces underneath – two large and two small.
I used the smaller pieces on each end.
Then I cut the wider pieces down to fit the gaps. I used a few pieces from another pallet for the rest.
Then I just cut down the four wood pieces to 30” for the legs.
I attached the legs with 3” wood screws and flipped it over to admire my work 
Lastly, lots and lots of sanding.
My chairs fit it perfectly! So in total, my entire patio “set” cost me a whopping….drum roll please…. $0!!! Seriously, everything was FREE!! I loooove FREE!
Wow, can I hire you as my interior/exterior decorator?
ReplyDelete:D Go driving through Scottsdale and up that way sometime early in the morning to score some awesome finds! haha. My mom's neighborhood throws out perfectly good stuff all the time. And yes, I'd be glad to be your interior/exterior decorator!
DeleteCool! Love the rustic table.

Thanks Deb. It sure beats the $200-$300 patio tables at the store! :) Thank you for your sweet comment!
DeleteThat is awesome!! I really need to find some free pallets! We pulled one out of the ditch by our house, but it's pretty gnarly. Not sure what to do with it yet.
ReplyDeleteHmm, you could use it for an outdoor garden,maybe? I love free pallets especially when they're in good shape. Hopefully you're able to find some, they're so fun to play with!
DeleteIt looks great! Would be good as a studio table too painted white. Visiting from Met Monday.
ReplyDeleteCheers
Yeah, I've been toying with the idea of painting it or maybe staining it. Still haven't decided. It would make a great studio table as well! Thanks for coming by, have a wonderful day!
DeleteAlex, it's beautiful!!! Thank you for linking it up with us. Will you add a link back to the Fine Craft Guild back to us?! Thank you sooo much. BTW. did you put your name in the hat yet for that stunning necklace that we're giving away at the Fine Craft Guild? Come check it out!
ReplyDeleteThank you Rose, I added the button to the post and also have one on my sidebar. Thanks for the invite for your giveaway, it is a beautiful necklace! Have a great day!

ReplyDeleteNo problem!
DeleteI need a new patio table this year and have not been liking the big box ones I can afford. I like yours SO MUCH better. Thank you for inspiring me to look inside my head instead of at the store! :)
ReplyDeleteI'm so glad you liked it. I was the same way, looking for a reasonably priced patio table, but I didn't like any of them. Let me know how it turns out for you!
DeleteThis is fantastic! It would also make a cute outdoor coffee table (with shorter legs, of course). Great job and thanks so much for sharing at Much Ado About Monday!
ReplyDeleteThanks Lydia. I was thinking of making a bench for the patio too and if I do I'll definitely be making another as a coffee table! Great idea!
