Introduction: Our Pallet Sofa and Table
Last summer we made a pallet sofa and a table for our living room.

Step 1: Purchasing
- 10 pallets (each 80*120 cm) They were
very cheap because my godfather works in a warehouse. They were used for beer cans storage.
- White wood paint
- Safety glass
- Wheels
- Foam
- Drapes
Step 2: Polishing
Step 3: Painting
Step 4: Carry to Our Living Room
Step 5: Foam Cutting
We cut the foams with a sharp knife.
Step 6: Drape Sewing
Step 7: The Table
We bought a 79,5 * 119,5 cm safety glass for the top and screw 4 wheels at the bottom.
Step 8: Pillows and the Cat :)
We cut the foams into small pieces to fill 9 pillows.

At the table: the plates are loose on each other or how did you make it stick together?

Where did you get your foam? My wife and I were looking to do one of these for our screened in porch, but when I priced the foam it was going to be like US$800, when everything else was free (we got our hands on some leftover outdoor quality fabric). It looks like you have ~6" thick...egg crate foam?

Try some of the thick mattress toppers. You might want some plywood or other solid board over the pallets.

We bought it from JYSK in Hungary.

It's 9 cm* 90 cm *200 cm. We needed 5 pieces and we had to cut.
That was cheapest solution for us :)
