A few weeks ago I came across a website called 50 things to do with a pallet. Well, I decided to try this out, and surprisingly it worked! I decided to make a headboard, It cost be about $7 and really added a lot to our little guest bedroom. I grabbed a pallet from the farm, sanded it, and proceeded to paint. It just so happens that we had a ton of paint on sale where I work that had faulty lids so I got a little quart of paint that would normally cost about $20 for $5! I put about 5 coats on….and wall-la! I also had to add a few blocks on the bottom to make it a little taller, also things I found at the farm. I got lucky also that I found a pallet that was long enough so I didn’t have to put two together. It was a cheap easy way to add a little spice to the room, it’s also different and unique and homemade! I would like to make a nice day bed but that will have to wait till we have more space!
