When the weather turns grey and chilly, there’s no better time to get creative indoors. Grab a few wooden pallets and a coffee. Here are five easy DIY projects to make those cold days fly by.
1. Cosy coffee table
Turn a simple pallet into a rustic coffee table. Sand it down, add wheels or short legs, and give it a quick coat of varnish or paint.
2. Pallet shoe rack
Tired of tripping over muddy boots? Cut a pallet in half, stand it upright, and mount it by your entryway. You’ll have the perfect rustic rack for your shoes and boots.
3. Indoor herb garden
No garden? No problem. Line a pallet with plastic, fill it with soil, and plant your favourite herbs. Pop it near a sunny window, and enjoy fresh rosemary and basil all winter long.
4. Wall art with character
Use pallet planks as a canvas for stencils, paint, or lights. It’s an affordable way to create a statement piece that warms up your space.
5. Pallet blanket box
Keep your cosy blankets within reach. Stack two pallets, hinge a top panel, and you’ve got yourself a charming storage box that’s as practical as it is stylish.
