Modern Pallet Shelves Ideas

We have gathered some astonishing ideas that are limited only by their creator’s imagination and we would like to featured them in our site today. Take a look at the images. You can clearly distinguish two types of approaches.

The first way to create a pallet shelf is to use the piece as it is just with little cutting, rearranging, repainting and combining it with another one. This is the easy way. You take your pallet, choose the color that will best suit your interior, cut a single line and you have your shelf. The only thing left to do is to decide whether you are going to need more available space or not. If you need the additional comfort, you need to take another piece and do the same thing. After the amount is cleared out, you have to mount the shelves on the wall.

The other way is to make your own pallet shelves is to extract the wood material of the pallet. This means a complete reorganization of the separate wooden pieces and planks that form the pallet. Extract the planks and use their material as a foundation for your future shelf. You will find that wood glue as well as nails are pretty handy in this situation. When the shape is done, mount the shelves on the wall and enjoy your new, contemporary and creative decorative accessory in your home.
