12 brilliants ideas to recycle the front sections of pallets and furnish the whole house creatively

We all know that few objects are as recyclable as pallets. But in the vast majority of cases, it is just the planks of the pallet that are used. Most discard the front sections of pallets, including the wooden blocks that act as dividers between the two layers of a pallet.

But these blocks can, in themselves, be very useful for creative DIY recycling projects. Check out the ideas below to get some inspiration:

Wine rack: a single vertical strip, this takes up very little space and is perfect for storing wine bottles for your next party.

Placing the blocks side by side, and using the spaces created to place wine bottles, is another variation on the wine rack theme. 

The front of the pallet acts as a shelf, and a few wooden planks create a panel that is secured to the wall: a rustic and functional coat rack.

Table or floor lamps: glass jars become beautiful lanterns, to be inserted in the front part of a pallet.

Instead of jars, you could also use liquor bottles: a unique idea for creative lighting solutions.

Here's a useful toilet paper roll holder that takes up very little space in a corner of the bathroom.

If you need a unique shelf in the kitchen, for example, the front-end of a pallet is perfect for this.

And the same can be done in other rooms of the house - especially if you insert customized drawers into the empty spaces.

And using just these oft-discarded parts of pallets, you can create an outdoor mini bar.

By stacking them, multiple pallent front-ends can become a functional shoe rack, perfect for the entrance to the house.

And have you ever thought of creating a room divider using just the front-end sections of wooden pallets?

And with a little effort, you can turn a pallet into a TV stand!
