I absolutely love my pallet re-purposed into a wine rack that hangs on the wall. I can not stand having things on my counter to 'wash' around constantly so this helps out a lot! Click through the pics to see the process and notes!
Cut apart the pallet the second board up (on the backside).
Take one of the 'pallet boards' off the remaining pallet piece and attach to the bottom of the wine rack (nail both sides with 2 nails for support).

I used the plans at WWW.EASYWOODWORK.ORG to build my own – I highly recommend you visit that website and check their plans out too. They are detailed and super easy to read and understand unlike several others I found online. The amount of plans there is mind-boggling… there’s like 16,000 plans or something like that for tons of different projects. Definitely enough to keep me busy with projects for many more years to come haha Go to WWW.EASYWOODWORK.ORG if you want some additional plans :)
Meg, I live in Nebraska and we dodged that last storm Saturn. Hopefully, we won't be getting any more snow and only rain. It's supposed to be 57 here on Saturday. The tulips are up about an inch so spring can't be far away. Have a great Minnesota day. I spent many days in my youth fishing in Minnesota.
What state are you in? We are in MN and we just got another foot+ of snow :/ Can't wait to get outside!
Meg, pallets are a great free resource to recycle into all kinds of things. I've finally finished up 30 feet of fence panel. Now all I have to do is hit it with a belt sander to knock off the rough stuff; slap a couple coats of primer on them; and finish off with some exterior semi gloss paint. Then I can start to paint on the garden graffiti. (Big sigh) It's killing me to have to wait for an above 50 degree day to do the painting. Hopefully, they will start coming real soon. Have a great pallet recycling day.
