Turn a couple of ordinary-looking pallets into a remarkable headboard. This head board was sanded and stained so that the natural grain of the wood would shine through. Shelves and shadow boxes were added for function and form and the slats were left open to accommodate lighting and wires.

3. Picnic Table and Benches

If you have 6 or so extra pallets laying around, you can create this simple picnic table with matching benches. The benches were assembled by cutting three pallets in half, trimming the excess, then glued and toenailed together using 3″ decking screws.
