Pallet patio table

I can't wait to share what I've been up to! With my husband gone for a month and my parents coming to visit, it was time to work on our guest room. I spent the entire month of March busy, busy, busy! I added a few projects to the rest of the house too.

First, I finally finished our patio table that we made out of pallets. We just grabbed two pallets that looked sturdy, added 6" 4x4s between them, and put wheels on the bottom so it would be easy to move by myself. We sanded it quite a bit (especially the top!) and painted it white.

It turned out beautifully! We love it and our new chairs too. We got the chairs off Craigslist for $20 (I painted them yellow), and the pillows came from Bed, Bath and Beyond. I had some scrap wood laying around and made a square to set my lanterns (from Target) on. We love spending evenings grilling and playing cribbage in the beautiful Hawaii weather.
