I Heart Pallets

Weird, right!  I have this new found love for pallets.  Yes, the things trucks carry goods on!  I'm in the middle of attempting to make a coffee table from some old pallets and wanted to show you what else has caught my eye lately...

So what do you all think?  Are you feeling the pallet love or am I off my rocker?

    I love pallets! I see them often behind Walmart and Home Depot (looking like they are being thrown out) and should probably just go ask their managers about them. I wouldn't want to be arrested for walking off with pallets. :)

    I love the wine storage idea! ... had not seen that photo before.

    Wouldn't it be ironic if pallet projects became so hot that folks first started making their own pallets to then use in a pallet project!

    Here's my fav pallet idea, a vertical outdoor garden for herbs or flowers...a few massed together could create a garden wall. Photo @ http://lifeonthebalcony.com/how-to-turn-a-pallet-into-a-garden/

    Dear blog friend,
    I am trying to put together a bloggers board.
    This board would contain the name of the blog, the first name of the author ( last name, if you allow ) and birthday-- month and day only.
    Once I get this put together, I will email to all participants.
    If you know of others who would like to be listed, please give them my email address so I can add them.
    I just think it would be handy to know when our friends birthdays are so we can send them our best wishes.
    Those of you who have not yet sent me your address, please do. These will not be part of the blog board, but for my own personal address book. I like to send cards now and then.

    I have been looking at these pictures a lot, too! I am currently making the bookshelves that Little Lucy Lu made but with a little more details added. I have been working on them for the past MONTH and can never seem to find the time to finish them up. Hopefully they'll be finished before school starts! :)
