Make an Awesome DIY Pallet Coffee Table

You have seen pallets before, they are those simply constructed wooden boxes that are used to transport cargo.  But did you realize that you can create totally awesome furniture out of them?  The kind of stuff that will blow your friends away.  For instance, a DIY pallet coffee table will give any room tons of character and style.

The pallet coffee tables can be made using pallet by different methods:

  • If we want to make a big coffee table, we should have an idea of its measurement and size so that the required wood could be arranged.
  • The pallet would after being arranged should be properly cleaned with spray and water. All sides should be sprayed meaning chemical treatment for termites and some kind of worms with germ killing liquid so that cleanliness should be ensured.
  • After cleaning the pallet wood has to be dried up for some time.
  • After cutting the wood according to the sizes, the legs and sides are joined. The sides are embedded to legs by screwing. The boards are to be joined to make the surface/ top of the table.
  • Then it is to be painted according to choice of colors. It could be done by combination of light and dark colors.
  • Using wax we can polish it perfectly to have a shiny surface.
  • After being completed, the surface and every part has to be properly cleaned and using oil paints some abstract  art can be created that will enhance its looks.
