I love a good challenge, and what better way than to take an old pallet and turn it into a castle!
Some time ago, my 6 year old and I patiently pieced together a castle made of little wooden bricks that I sliced up from an old pallet.
It started a trend.
A discarded wooden pallet, an old closet rod and some left-over hardware become little wooden trains! My youngest fell in love with a similar train drawn by a string when we were overseas visiting family, so I decided to surprise him with one of his own when we returned stateside.

I enjoy the challenge of building and designing furniture using reclaimed wood and hardware. This play kitchen, for example, is made completely of reclaimed materials, including the hardware, screws, bolts, etc.
