I used to sleep on a pallet bed when I found myself a young single mom living in London on a small income and in need of a bed. For a few pounds and some help from a friend with a van, I got 12 old pallets home for a double-sized bed for me and six for my son’s single bed. A couple of affordable Ikea mattresses completed the picture.
Lori Danelle’s taken the pallet bed idea a step further and made a toddler bed, complete with casters, headboard, foot-board and side-guard. She’s posted a full tutorial online. It’s absolutely gorgeous.

Very cool! We get a lot of pallets from our shipments that sometimes are hard or cumbersome to recycle (a lot of our mfgs don’t want them sent back). It’s so great to see them get such a neat second life!
this bed is delightful…can’t believe they throw pallets away….
if i looking to purchase baby safety goods, i will normally purchasing more premium item. You can save on anything else, but you should not stingy on your infant safety.
