And a little bit pretty!

To make the box, you will need to cut the pallet wood into the following lengths:

Base = 2 x wood lengths at 400mm
Sides = 2 x wood lengths at 395mm
Ends = 2 x wood lengths at 175mm
(to convert to inches, type it into Google)

It is a basic build:
Nail one side to each base piece.
Nail the ends in place, attaching to the side wood
Then nail the base pieces to the end pieces to hold it in shape.
Plait some rope to create a handle for each end.
Staple gun in place.
I haven't ever made a box before, and it was simple to do.

Tracey, this is such a lovely idea! I think I'll use it for my porch. We just re-sided our house and updated our porch with some beautiful railing this would be a perfect addition to my new table set. I love the rustic look too! Thanks for sharing at #SimplifyWednesdays Pinning & Tweeting
