The back is straight, my husband said you don't have straight backs like that, it's extremely uncomfortable....You might have to have long round cushioning.

That would be uncomfortable.

We go through a lot of pallets at our shops in Winnipeg. I don't know what they do with them. I should ask.

That's what cushions and pillows are for.   I have a large balcony (which is pretty sweet, private too) large enough to sleep out there in the summer if I wanted to.  Kids are most likely to be all over it...they will be lying on it, using devices or just doing something.  I'm pretty laid back and chill so I like simple colourful things.

Aren't pallets treated with nasty chemicals?

Not that I'm aware of..



My husband has brought some home to burn in our firepit in the past.....no unusual odour or smoke.

Only in Australia.   :laugh3:



No.  It's just wood slapped together.  I would have to sand it tho, its rough.



You can use the wood to build stuff.  I want a wooden box for balcony plants, herbs and some tomatoe plants. If the wood rots and get wrecked, just toss it at the end of the summer.

It's going to be great. It's a good idea... when you are using it, you'll know what to modify.

That's a great idea Berry.

I've seen lots of ideas with pallets, and those plant hangers seem like a real good idea.



We have tons of pallets here, and if you were close by, I'd bring them to you lol. We use to have a guy here that would snag them once a year, but he died, and we have way too many. I use some for the fire pit, and others I have saved for picture frames.

Yeah, some pallets come in with a frame like board on top of the paper strapped down. I plan to have some poster size images printed, and use the wood to frame them with  ac_smile



Another friend of mine that worked here, took some pallets home, disassembled them, stained them, and nailed them to his bathroom wall, and gave it a real cool rustic look.



I used a bunch of pallets as a shelving system for the paper here I use too.



So many ideas on Pinterest too lol.

I only see them when my husband brings them home or if I'm at his shop....which isn't very often.

They use them on our large stacks of paper, to help hold them down, without ruining the paper on top.
