I have always wanted to make one of these wine barrel tables from the first time I saw them. I wanted my table to be more fine furniture and I wanted to make it personal to me.
My sister asked if I would be able to make her a pallet daybed for her entertainment area. She wanted the daybed to be big enough for 2 people to sit comfortably on and wanted it to be sturdy. Her entertainment area is sheltered but when we get heavy rain it does get wet. That is why she chose to have the daybed made from pallets.
This project was next on the list of projects my daughter wanted me to make for her new home. They are very spoilt and have a large spa in their back garden where they spend a lot of time. They ask if I could make them a Pallet Wall bar that they can mount on the wall next to the spa for drink and snacks while chilling in the spa. No more balancing that wine glass on the side of the spa only to be knocked over and good wine gets wasted.
I have had some wood slices sitting behind my shed for years now waiting for the perfect project to come along, and it finally did. I wanted to try and create an African bush themed wooden suncatcher. The idea was to have the background look like an African sunset, with a silhouette of the African bush. Depending on the light, the colours in the wooden suncatcher will look different from every angle.
