From decorating with recycled pallets to making lamps out of plastic cups, to all kinds of ingenious ideas for making super cute hangers, shelves or storage elements.

Your room is a space where you can freely create. This is a place where you can explore your personal style. Whether you want to create a relaxed atmosphere, a rustic look or a modern aesthetic, your decoration can help you realize your vision. Fortunately, you can make home decorations and household items yourself. Customize your home furnishings to match your unique style, and then consider which room they are best suited for.

Decorating with pallets

Pallets are one of the star elements of DIY (do it yourself) decoration because they give a lot of play with very little effort and for very little money. One of the classics is to make a sofa with them. You just have to clean them and paint them or treat them with a wood protector. Put on them mats and cushions. And that's it.

Shelves and displays

Just lean the pallet or hang it on the wall and take advantage of its structure to place shelves or display objects. Here, for example, it is used to display a collection of ceramic plates that rest on the pallet and are kept upright with the help of old iron nails, which accentuates the rustic and vintage feel.

Planters

Another widespread use of pallets that run through the network is as planters. Here it serves as a support for pots and hanging candle holders. But you can also use the pallet structure itself, when you put it vertically, to put pots in the space left between the slat of the surface and the one that makes a parallel foot underneath.

Multipurpose wooden boxes

Another of the elements that sweep to make DIY furniture on the Internet are the wooden boxes used to carry fruit, bottles, preserves... The only thing to keep in mind when deciding on one option or another is the consistency of the box in question. If the wood is very thin and brittle, it won't hold much weight... Here boxes have been stacked vertically forming a "tetris" of multipurpose shelves anchored to the wall.

Desk

If the boxes are strong and consistent, another option is to stack several, which will act as legs of the desk table as well as shelves. And put a wooden board on top, as here.

Hangers full of ingenuity

With a little imagination, almost anything can be turned into a hanger, as here, where a trunk is used as a bar to hang jackets in the hall. To hold them, hooks from a kitchen utensil bar have been used.

Restored wood

A piece of wood washed ashore by the sea can be turned into a hanger by adding hanging hardware.

Ideas with leather

Another option to hang things with a super sophisticated look is to use leather strips (or recycle old belts) as a wall magazine rack, for example.

Stairs

Any staircase with a little charm can be reused as a towel rack in the bathroom or as a bedside night stand, for example.

Decoratin With Pallets

Pallets - the wooden platforms on which heavy goods are placed - are one of the star elements of DIY (do it yourself) decoration because they give a lot of play with very little effort and for very little money.

• Sofas. It is a classic reuse of pallets. You just have to clean them and paint them or treat them with some oil or varnish for wood so they do not deteriorate. Put mattresses and cushions on them. And that's it.
• Beds. It consists of doing the same as in the previous case. But with a more consistent mattress that allows a restful rest. Ideal for attics, guest rooms, summer houses...
• Shelves and exhibitors. You just have to support it or hang it on the wall and take advantage of its structure to put shelves or expose objects. In our case, we have used it to display a collection of ceramic plates, which are supported on the pallet and kept standing with the help of old iron nails, which accentuates the rustic and vintage air.
• Planters. Another of the most widespread uses of pallets that run through the network is as planters. The pallet structure itself, when you put it vertically, leaves a space between the slat of the surface and the one that makes a parallel foot below that can accommodate pots. Another option, like the one we show you, is to make it serve as a support for pots and hanging candle holders.
• Coffee tables. This is the other classic DIY furniture made from pallets. You can put it directly in front of your sofa, either a single one or several stacked, or put some wheels on each corner and so you can move it easily.

Multipurpose Wooden Boxes

Another of the elements that sweep to make DIY furniture on the internet are the wooden boxes that are used to carry fruit, bottles, preserves ... The only thing to keep in mind when deciding on one option or another is the consistency of the box in question. If it is very thin and brittle wood, it will not support much weight...

• Shelving. Stacking several boxes vertically, as in the image in the gallery, you can make a "tetris" of multipurpose shelves to put books, using clamps, staples, brackets... If you want to avoid this hassle, you can opt for a single line of boxes along an entire wall, as if it were a single low shelf.
• Desk. If the boxes are strong and consistent, another option is to stack several of them, which will act as legs of the desk table as well as shelves. And on top put a wooden board as in the image in the gallery.
• Extra storage. Just add some wheels to the boxes and you can use them to store things under the bed, the sofa...
  All these elements can also be made with colored plastic boxes as long as they are strong and resistant.

Ingenious Hangers

With a little imagination, almost anything can be turned into a hanger. From old cutlery, to skateboard wheels, to foosball table dolls?

• Logs and branches. You can use them as a coat rack or as a bar to hang jackets in the hall.
• Reclaimed wood. A piece of wood washed up on the shore can become a hanger by adding hanging hardware.
• Leather ideas. Another option to hang things with a super sophisticated look is to use leather strips (or recycle old belts) as a wall magazine rack or to hang scarves and other accessories with the help of curtain rings.
• Staircases. Any ladder with a little charm can be used as a towel rack in the bathroom or as a bedside night stand, for example.
• Copper pipes. Even copper pipes can be used as a bar to hang towels or other accessories with the help of a few strings and a little imagination.

Hanging Shelves

On the internet there are all kinds of hanging shelves based on ropes and wooden shelves, log sheets or even recycled skateboards. All you need is the element that will serve as a shelf, some strong ropes, and some pliers or other systems to anchor it to the wall or ceiling.

Super Chic Extra Storage

With the help of a rustic string, you can transform cardboard boxes and even canning jars into extra storage elements. An idea that, in addition to being simple, sustainable and low cost, is full of charm.
