It's WISE to DIY: Thrify Ideas for the Do-It-Yourselfer

When He Flips This Over And Adds PVC Pipe, I’m SOLD!

This outdoor pallet daybed is amazing, guys!

I love a pallet project that is so easy–and what I mean by that is NO DISSEMBLING!

This is a great piece to have outside in the backyard to rest, read or just fall asleep.  I mean, why hang a simple hammock when you can make this in no time at all?

    Not to mention pallets are difficult to work with….we made a garden gate out of them and it was near impossible to put screws in the wood. In some places like the good ol southwest wood of any kind can be pricey.

  2. Jane Gansner says:

    It would give kimmy something to do lol

  3. Debra Koon says:

    nice but pvc pipe would break so i would use conduit or some thing else

  4. Should be a project for Home Depot.

  5. Carol Hinze says:

  20. Mary Hughes says:

    I would not use PVC like he did I would find something else to use …… <3 it

  21. would love to have one

  22. Not the same project..2nd pic shows into the ground, 3rd pic shows on a deck…

    • carol says:

      yes it is the same project. he is spray painting it on the ground. Look at the spray paint on the ground around the tubes,lol

    • Doris says:

      He only spray painted it on the ground…it’s not cemented in.
      The bench has legs with rollers on it as shown in the picture.
      The green pvc piping he used as a railing on top of the bench.

  23. hope you didn’t use up all your pallets paneling your new bathroom, Laura Proeber!

  24. Brad Shepard here’s another project for the back yard

  25. Mark Ley – can you build this?

  26. Debbie Brown says:

    I am going to do this twin size and use galvanize piping to match my curtain rods in my sunroom.

  27. Naomi Cope says:

    Cool! Huh, Ethan? Check it out!

  28. Carl Suthers says:

    I’d forgo the caster wheels. I don’t need it rolling off the deck with me or my wife on it.

  29. Steven Bourgeois says:

    I don’t know about those wheels. It looks like it would roll backwards off that deck.

  30. S Pfister says:

    Great idea but how do you keep it from rolling off the deck?!! I’d use bigger casters with locks on them and conduit instead of PVC. Great idea!!

  32. Cecila….check this one out…..cool!! 😀

  33. You guys do realize that pallets sometimes haul toxic materials. You never know what was on them or how often.
