One of my favorite sites is Knock Off Wood. You see, my husband is a carpenter and although he enjoys making me things I'm quite impatient and hate waiting for him to draw up plans and get a supply list. Then one day I discovered Knock Off Wood where I can print out the plans and supply list (even know how much it will cost which is a great argument for getting it done!) and hand it to him as we head to the hardware store!
A while back she posted these pallet shelves and I fell in love (you may hate them, they aren't for everyone). I had the hubby bring a pallet home from work and TA DA!
One pallet made two big book shelves and the one small shelf I have the boots on. Love them or hate them?

I love the idea, but the appreance is a little too "raw" for my liking. I think it depends on the room it is in and whatnot. But I could do this with a little post building treatment.. maybe a little paint?
ReplyDeleteEither way, it is a great idea. Thanks for sharing!
I love it! Especially the stenciled numbers on the side. I would totally do this if I had a mud room :)
ReplyDeleteLove it!
ReplyDeleteI love them! I am always trying to figure out how to contain our personal library, and these look like they would work nicely! Might have to give it a try :)

Love them. No question. I saw them on Knock off wood & have been looking for the perfect spot in my home for one!
ReplyDeleteI really like the book shelf idea. I may need to do that myself! :)
ReplyDeleteVery shabby chic! They wouldn't go in my house but they look great.
ReplyDeleteLove it! Especially the book shelf!
ReplyDeleteOooh, I definitely love them. :)
ReplyDeleteI really like the book shelf. Have there been any problems with splinters in little fingers?
ReplyDeleteOoohh, I love,love,love them! Hmmmm It may be time to go pallet hunting! Wouldn't that look awesome as a magazine rack in a family room!
ReplyDeleteI LOVE them. It would be awesome in a mud room...if I had one. :)
ReplyDeletewhat a fabulous idea! so rustic looking- looks awesome!
ReplyDeleteLOVE ANNA!!!!! I have about 15 plans already printed out that I can't afford to make. LOL
ReplyDeleteI LOVE them. Would all depend on your style. For instance, would never work in my sister's designer formal house, but would look great in mine!
ReplyDeletehmm might work in a cottage feel home I think..
ReplyDeleteLove them! Love the rustic, not-so-perfect feel! I am featuring these at somedaycrafts.blogspot.com. I don't think I ever told you that I like your new blog set-up. Looks great!
