I love pallets.
I also need pallets to reach things high up as I am not all that tall.
I have a variety of pallets.
The white one above is from Ikea, very light. (Bekväm, SEK149). Step up and down on it several times a day in the kitchen. For a very long time the white one was out of stock. I waited and waited for it to get available and it finally did.
This black pallet lives in the living room. To reach the top of the bookcases. I’ve had it since I was a kid. It got its black lacker paint decades ago. It is small and unobtrusive.
This is the first model of the Ikea pallet. It is heavy. Not that easy to move around as todays’ model that I have in the kitchen. At the time this one only came in natural wood, no paint. Painted it years ago as I wanted a black one. Used to reach the top of the bookcases in the bedroom and the top shelves in the wardrobes.
This one also comes from Ikea. Discontinued years ago. I’ve always loved its form and look. Mainly used as a foot pallet. Easy to move around as it weighs next to nothing. And to pile those clothes on that are to get ironed.
The grey pallet to the left with clothes for ironing on it and some other stuff for mending. The flower arrangement is temporary. Had to get those pelargonias inside as the nights are getting cold. The olive tree to the left of the pelargonias recently moved here from the kitchen and has to be cut down. The old iMac is the first ever model with Intel inside. Very old but works just fine. Only used for very old applications that cannot be used on more recent system versions. And to watch DVDs on from bed.
Then there is this one. Just inside in the living room on the way out to the outside place. All kinds of things land on it that are on the way outside. (Disregard the training equipment… ). This pallet is also an old Ikea pallet. Also discontinued. Used to come in a high variant as well. Ikea sold it for many years but not any longer. Can of course also be used to sit on if you remove all the junk on it. (The bag of peanuts is for the birds outside. Special bird-peanuts).
This high pallet I use as a pedestal under the big monstera in the living room. This pallet also comes from Ikea and is no longer sold. (Disregard the training bicycle in front of it).
That makes six (6) pallets. Couldn’t do without any of them… I love my pallets.
PS. I forgot one. The one that lives in the bathroom but is used in the garden when having to work on something in a flowerbed or similar. This one:
Of course an Ikea pallet. Have had it for some years which you can see on the anti-slip dots on the top that are grey. On todays model they are dark-blue-black.
So, that makes seven (7) pallets.
