The tables made with pallets were perhaps the pioneers in this new decorative trend.
They really are easy to make although there are many possible variations when building them.
To make a simple low table you will only need 1 pallet and 4 wheels for the legs. You must properly sand the wood and apply a coat of varnish or paint.

Bottle rack
I like furniture with practical pallets and this one is, it is also very decorative.
In addition to a support for the bottles, it has slots to hang the glasses.
Shoe rack with recycled pallets
Another of the most practical pallet furniture is this shoe rack. You can use it simply by sanding and varnishing the pallet, supporting it on a wall.
The shoes are inserted between the separation of the boards.
If you want to do something more sophisticated, you can make a little stool with pallets where, in addition to storing your shoes, you can sit down to take off your shoes. Ideal for large hallways.
TV table
With a technique very similar to that of the low table, you can make a piece of furniture with pallets for the television.

The easiest to make is the chill-out type bench, which does not require a backrest.
planter
Pallet planters greatly adorn a patio or a terrace. You can varnish or paint it, white is very pretty.
Building it is very simple, you will only need a pallet that we will divide into 3 parts, and then join the different pieces with nails or wood glue.
Coat rack
There are many variants of coat racks with pallets. The simplest is to directly cut the pallet to the size you want and screw the hangers that you can find in any bazaar or hardware store.
There are those who hang the entire pallet from the wall and there are those who disassemble it and join the boards.
Shelving
In the same way that we made the bottle rack, you can get some nice shelves, although the same pallet hides a ready-made shelf inside.
We will only have to remove the boards from one of the sides of the pallet and we will have a 3-shelf shelf ready to hang.
As you may have noticed, there are thousands of possibilities when it comes to making furniture with pallets, you just need some time, a few pallets and a lot of desire to create your own furniture. You dare?
