14. Pallet Mud Kitchen Summer Pallet Ideas
As kids, making mud pies was a summer essential for my brothers and me. I am reminded of how fun those good old days were upon seeing this project. This pallet mud kitchen is a brilliant idea for the kids to cook up some mud dishes. Squishy, messy play is fun, and it’s so important! I wouldn’t mind the wood stain from the pot and tray the kids play. Makes you become so free and explore a big part of being a kid. Give your kids this and a whole lot more to enjoy their lives with. One genius project among the summer pallet ideas.
15.Pallet Play House
Here’s another pallet playhouse that’s a bit easier to build. The kids can even help! It can be as big as they love or you want so as to accommodate as many playmates as possible since kids tend to invite their friends over for summer hangouts. They even created some pallet seats to go inside. You could do the same when coming up with your playhouse. The wood can be painted or not depending on your liking. I would choose to paint them with colorful playful colors.
16. Outdoor Pallet Dog Bed
One of the awesome summer pallet ideas is to build an outdoor dog bed for Fido to relax on while the whole family enjoys the outdoors. I am a lover of pets and my dog would really love its own place to chill and be comfortable in. Dogs also need all the sun to bask they want and enjoy outdoor setups just like humans. This is an idea that I will definitely adopt for my dog Beans and my cat Sushi. And with it done, the summer can begin.
17. Patio Furniture Summer Pallet Idea
If you’re feeling really inspired, here’s an entire patio furniture set made out of pallets. Isn’t it incredible?
