Pallet Benches

AFTER

DURING

BEFORE
 
With a family reunion pending, and the inspiration of Pinterest, SW and I embarked on our first DIY furniture project. Pallet furniture seems all the rage, and why not?  Pallets are inexpensive and easy to work with. 
 
SW and I found our stack of pallets (all of them!) for $2 at an Estate sale.  Granted, they had been out in the elements for a long time, so the wood was a little rickety.  If you were planning to make pallet furniture and take apart pieces to reconstruct you would want newer pallets.  But we did not need new pallets! 
 
After carting the pallets home I printed out several photos from Pinterest to see which ones we might have the limited skill to reproduce.  This is the style that won!  We used a paint sprayer for the final paint job and we were done in time for the family reunion!
