Shipping Pallet Table

 Thank you again Pinterest for my Pallet Project inspiration.  I have more pallet projects coming soon.
I don't have step by step pictures but here are the steps:
1.  Two pallets similar size, sand them down and clean up.
2.  screw them together
3.  Add casters (I am prob. going to change the casters on mine to some with a break)
4.  Dry brush color
4.  I chose to paint the french motif on the top - I downloaded my graphic from The Graphic Fairy
5.  Antique with glaze and stain

Vintage Suit Case Chair

Check out the other Pinterest Challenge Participants at Young House Love
Making a house a home and Bower Power

I DID IT!  My version of the Suitcase Chair.  Thank you Pinterest for the inspiration!!


This was a figure it out as I go project.  A little tricky, very time consuming but so FUN.

Cut a piece of MDF and glued to bottom of suitcase.  This gave more stability to my legs.

Legs screwed in.



My suitcase opened all the way up so I had to suport the back at an angle.  I used a metal piece I purchased from home depot and covered in burlap.  There are probably many ways to do this and I am not sure if this is the best, but it worked.

Edited:  Added picture of metal before I covered it.



Two pieces of foam covered in batting and then my fabric for the seat.  For my fabric I purchased a canvas painters tarp at home depot for $4.00



Glued a piece of MDF to the bottom of my cusion (after I tufted with covered buttons).  I am no expert at tufting I just googled it to figure it out. 

My suitcase already had the gold metal pieces so it made it a perfect spot to sit the MDF board that my cushion was glued to.


Top cusion was one piece of foam wrapped in batting (I used twine to keep my fabric tight on the back). 


So here it is at this stage.

Added fabric to form a large flower on the back.


Painted and glazed the legs.


 There it is!
