How to build a pallet sofa from scratch

And the warmer weather makes it so comfortable to be outdoors! Nothing like a sunny afternoon on the patio enjoying my coffee on my comfy pallet sofa under the cozy patio roof! Or working that fresh soil in the sunshine preparing it for the weeks to come. What’s your fav yard thing to do?

This past week I’ve done some Hometalk filming and working my gardening job and working my own garden beds, so once again, no new projects for the blog. Boo.

But I went to a meeting last night in town, and two neighbours commented how hard I work in the yard, and how nice it always looks, so that was just so nice to hear that someone other than me is appreciating my efforts! Ha!

Hopefully I can find the time to pull something fun together soon! But I keep wavering between wanting to push myself hard in the yard to doing absolutely nothing since my body doesn’t always cooperate with my grand efforts. Hmm… guess we’ll see if that new project will become a thing, huh? LOL

Luckily there’s no need to wait on me, since we have this week’s fabulous upcycled project features from last week’s party, then move on to the new projects below!
