Pallets Pallets Pallets!!!!

When I was gathering ideas for setting up the shop I got a little Pallet obsessed. I wanted my counter to be made from pallets. And nothing was going to stop me!!!! Every where I went I saw Pallets, I was veering off the roads, I was picking them up off the side of the road, I was peaking through wired fences trying to figure out a way to snavel them. I was on a Pallet mission!!!
But it was worth it, the counter turned out really well and it can be a bit of a conversation starter.
During this Pallet fever my friend discovered this clever lady and her website. http://www.studiomama.com/index.html
Nina Tolstrup is a designer of some pretty groovy furniture but also you can download some really fab instruction manuals for pallet furniture. I have the Pallet Chair manual, I plan to make a couple for out the front of the shop. I'm also digging the lamps, how great are they!!!
