I loved the ingenuity and thriftiness of this headboard made from a found wood pallet, and it got me thinking about other projects you could do with the same material. Luckily, the Internet is ripe with clever people sharing their ideas.
Don't you think a colorful coat rack would make a happy addition to any mudroom? See four more home projects below:

If you love the farmhouse look, this custom pallet desk from Funky Junk Interiors will help you achieve that rustic feel.

For those of you who like the look but lack the skills, Katrin Arens creates lovely products from reclaimed wood -- including this hanging dish display.

Short on space? This bookshelf and bike rack from Chris Shutter will help with storage solutions even on a budget.

Ashley Ann made this lovely and comfy reading bed for her daughter's nursery. I love the hanging cluster of lanterns too!
Is anybody else going to be staking out their local Home Depot or construction site to score one of these? Super cool and resourceful if you ask me!
Do you have any cool DIY projects you can make with a wood pallet?

I like repurposed furniture like this, but not my style.
really cute ideas!
cute
My sister and her boyfriend made a deck at their trailer made solely out of wooden pallets. It looks really nice, they did a good job.
I love the little coat rack idea!
@Lisa. Some pallets are made with icky chemicals.. but tonnes of them are not. They have a facility here for people that are mentally challenged to make wooden pallets. Its some normal wood nailed together, no chemicals at all.
good ideas
I just saw a picture of an old pallet propped it on it's side and filled it with succulents as a garden accent. Gorgeous.
I recently renovated my flat and I took some of your advices. There was a little problem with all the junk but I've called one of those companies, junk removal portland or something like that and they did a great job. I was reading one of your articles about a bachelors aparment; well you can imagine that it looks like that.
