Recycling ideas: making furniture from wooden pallets

We have already shown many recycling ideas for making modern furniture from wooden pallets. To make this work joyful and meaningful, you can paint the wood in different colors. One innovative family built a bed from wooden pallets even for the baby’s room and decorated it with cheerful motifs. Install wall shelves made from wooden boxes in the living room and emphasize them with strong color. Oversized wooden reels can be used as coffee tables.
Recycling ideas: garden decoration and playgrounds with tires

Clean your old car tires and paint them in bright colors. Old tires are widely used in the garden; you can use them as flower pots or make a playground for children with them. This recycling idea is quite simple, but full of impact.
Cool recycling ideas: chic lighting from old plastic bottles

Do not throw away your old plastic bottles. Instead, build modern chandeliers or pendant lights. Plastic bottles create original lighting effects in a room and can have almost the same decorative impact as glass. Plastic bottles can be used in many ways around the home; you can even make toys from them. See below for more interesting recycling ideas.
