Pile of Wooden Pallets

4 Super Simple uses for those Old Wood Pallets

1) Make a basic pallet fence

Wood pallets already kinda look like a fence, and they are already made. Boom – They are fences!!

2) Use pallets to hide stuff, or to make pretty supports for sunflowers

I took these 2 bad boys, and a couple of screws and made this farm-style fence. It hides my scrap and firewood and supports our sunflowers in the front. The solar lights look great at night.

3) Make a basic deck

I needed a step in front of the door on my shed, so I picked out a sturdy pallet and filled in all the opened spots with scrap. After a coat of some old stain, I have a nice porch. Look, another pallet fence 🙂

4) Make a platform for your refuse bin.

Our plastic garbage and recycling center works great, but it needed to be raised up so the doors don’t hit the ground. I attached a couple of pallets together and leveled them out then placed my “Raccoon Diner” on the top.

Now they have no problem opening the doors 🙂
