To make this:
From Martha Stewart
  • Find flea markets, garage sales, and a few good areas to trash pick.
  • Peruse
  • Stroll
  • Imagine
  • Consider buying it... and then put it back.
  • Be sure to have with you: good walking sneakers and word clothes ('do rag optional), a cuppa tea or coffee, a snack to kep you motivated, and nothing else in your cars trunk.
  • Find old chair
  • Wonder aloud what stories this chair holds: Who sat in it? Who got chastised in it? Who sat in this chair on the phone, receiving wonderful news!?
  • Prep chair for paint (optional)
  • Paint chair (also optional)
  • Make it pretty.
  • Sit.
  • Sit long.
  • Sit long and ponder.
See our Pinterest Board!

DIY: Repurposing Gutters

Photo thanks to Handimania






We appreciate all the repurposing of wooden pallets and we had to share this post with you.

Imagine having herbs in these gutters?  Picking fresh basil or mint as you prepare dinner?

Or all the lush tomato varieties you can grow - the Roma, the heirloom, the cherry and the pear tomatos?

The possibilities are endless..

Complete instructions here:

Pallet upcycle: DIY Pallet Desk

I sit at my desk a lot.  A lot a lot.   You can find me there to
  • work
  • work
  • work
  • pay bills
  • research ways to save money
  • work 
  • work 
  • work

But if I had to sit at this beauty of a desk, I think I might be juuuuuust a tad happier paying bills and working!  Wouldn't you?! We are digging the rustic feeling of this upcycled pallet desk

Here are the complete instructions

It seems fairly straight forward, but of course that depends on your experience.

What are you doing with your upcycled pallets?  Send us photos! We love to see them!

Myths about Wooden Pallets (subtitled: We Love Trees!)


Who'da thunk that the pallet industry could be so controversial? (And here we thought of ourselves as stewards of the Earth, recyclers and re-purpose-rs of wooden pallets - hardly controversial figures!)

Apparently myths abound about the sustainability of the wooden pallet industry.  We've done our research, and we are happy to report that we can keep whistling-while-we-work, knowing that we are making progress to help our earth.

We've uncovered a great site that helps dispel the many myths about the wooden pallet industry

  • At Ruma's warehouse, we take care to use each piece of wood (for repair, for reinforcement, for upgrades to a current pallet, etc)
  • Ruma's also pays cash for old, broken, wooden pallets (to be dismantled, or to be used as mentioned above, as reinforcements)
  • Any scrap wood that we can't use, we often donate or sell as fire wood! We don't like to fill a dumpster with wood - that's for sure!
 Give us a call for your pallet needs (see info to the right)

You can trust that Ruma's team works for you - and for the Earth!

How to dismantle a pallet...
