been viewing a lot of videos and pics of things made out of pallets....there are some brilliant ideas, some complex, and some super easy, they are getting some beautiful results, after all its free lumber for the most part, a little time, paint and a few screws, and you have a one of a kind show piece.....

I am pushing for an idea of a platform for a bed, with rope lights underneath for a nice glow....and maybe even storage cubbies.....matched up with a headboard and a few side tables.....the ideas are endless....

this comfort seating idea is spectacular, just not sure yet where to get the cushions...this would fit great for a TV viewing room, or a guest bedroom....

That three tiered thing offers almost no back support and looks like a devil of a dust catcher with all of those slats underneath. The tiers are too short to allow you to stretch out your legs so I guess you have to sit in a childbirth position and watch the home theater presentation through your knees unless it is for Pre-K and kindergarten kids.
 
I used to use pallets for New Years eve bonfires. They make great burning wood. I new of a few places that just wanted them gone. Would take the pickup and load them up and make a pile in the back yard. Cut some of them up with the chair saw to add later as the pile burned down. Some great parties by the fire.

How about a house built from pallets?  This group wants to use them to build temporary housing for refugees

 

Lots of ways to use that lumber, I used to help a friend of the family tear them apart to burn in their wood stove.  I like the floor above, as long as it's sanded smooth it would make a very pretty and unusual material with a lot of character. 

 

In the video at the link, it states that 150,000,000 per year mostly end up in landfills.
