Sat Nite Special link party #125 - benches

Pin It





Welcome to Saturday Nite Special #125, the multi themed DIY link party! 

* Home Decor / Gardening
 * Crafts, / Sewing / Recipes / Printables / Blog tips
* Theme of the week

Every Fri 7pm  to Sunday 11 pm Pacific.





So, you know about my own bench / sofa I made out of pallets last summer, yes?

Well, it appears this crazy little number inspired a few others.




This adorable frame was a $5.00 thrift store find and my sofa inspired the seat. I LOVE it!

by Hobbies of a Homemaker



With the encouragement of a friend, Kristi packed her vehicle full of pallets and set about making this little gem happen all by herself. And she did it! Isn't it fabulous?

Mag and her hubby teamed up and created this beauty from pallets. How cute is that mini version? :)

I think Laura's the luckiest girl in the world. Not only did her hubby whip up this bench, he also sewed the pillows. Awesome job, hubby! LOVE the size of this one!

Wow. I'm so amazed that my funny little summer project became such a hit for so many other's yards. You do me proud, guys. :)

    Thanks for hosting the linky party and good morning! I have a recipe for DIY Organic Eye Makeup Remover. It only takes two ingredients-super simple and cheap. I love it, as do my little sensitive eyes! Have a great weekend!

    Thanks for the party Donna!! I love the theme parties especially cause I get to see projects from before I began blogging - and there are some super cute ideas, too!

    Happy St Pats!


    May the road rise up to meet you.
    May the wind always be at your back.
    May the sun shine warm upon your face,
    and rains fall soft upon your fields.
    And until we meet again,
    May God hold you in the palm of His hand.
