I needed to create deck furniture fast. So here’s what I made. Super easy – get the pallets free from your local hardware depot. Ask inside and they usually set them aside behind the business. Look for pallets stamped “HD” and be sure of the size you need, as there are many options.  I put castor wheels on the furniture so I can sweep etc and repurposed ikea ‘as is’ fabric to cover ikea crib mattresses.  The pallets were sanded and double coated with Thompson water seal as they will be stored under the stairs.

Here’s a pinterest page devoted to pallet ideas! And here are the pieces I made…the backs fold down using hinges – this is for easy storage during the [rainy] winter 🙂
