Don't have big trees in the garden - the only ones we have are over the pond be a bit wet if fell in, great idea thanks for putting it on here, If I made one of those seats I would keep it on the floor
A few of the new pallets maybe for the front garden on top of the wall want it to be higher up. I am on a waiting list to get an allotment so some may go that way - still need to make the pallet bench with back for next to the pond
The coldframe is being made from one of the other pallets that I took all the wood off, prob one of the ones near the begin of getting pallets - just took a while to get around to getting it built
Lots of bulbs still to be planted up the station and a few plants
Have daffs, tulips, alliums, irises in tyre planters and crocus - new bulbs going to be planted English bluebells and corms crocosmia Lucifer donated from Woody , I will try and put pics on station thread when the bulbs appear
I will put a few pics of cold frame when finished going to paint the inside today country cream colour
I have painted the coldframe now Cuprinol shades country cream on inside and a paint dad had for like a clear ish colour to keep the pallet wood effect sadolin paint
I am sitting in the living room as I have taken over with the cold frame being stunk out - still the wood edge of the lid to paint to do tomorrow outside smelly paint
Handle to sort out and hinges to attach with help on that bit and weed matting - then major task of carrying it down the garden and putting it in place

That looks so comfy but would bow in the middle if I sat on it! Loved reading through this thread, full of inspiration now
Well hello all, has anyone been making things out of pallets recently?
I have been making my cold fame finally got so far back and front built sides getting there - going to be doing the slopes on the sides next
The things you make are really good GG, love to see the coldframe when you have finished it.
Those new pallets are very posh, are they the ones for the cold frame?
Looking forward to seeing the Station when the bulbs are up
Thanks Lyn
