Shabby chic boxes out of....PALLETS!


Yes. pallets. 

Our office is located quite conveniently outside of a warehouse. Lots of trucks come in and out thru out the day, and guess, what, there are TONS of pallets, STACKS of pallets, a PLETHORA of pallets. So what did we do? Broke them down and turned them into super cute flower boxes. So, if like us, you just have a whole bunch of used and abused pallets lying around, here's what you do. You break down the pallat, grab a handy dandy nail gun, and build your self some of these! 




Now, When we constructed these we broke down 
several pallets, sawed them into similar lengths, and nailed them together. 
Yes it is that easy. 



Other Awesome things to do with pallats: 
Pallat+Herbs= Garden! 

Pallat+Pictures= STORAGE



























Our Current Project: 

Had used these boxes once before, and now our customers are loving them! We have several events that we are working with these! Check out this! We're getting ready for a Charity Event Friday, and Saturday (whew are we busy)

Gerber Arrangements

After a client gave a picture to our chief designer from a magazine, her creative wheels started turning. Using Wheat Grass, Some old wood, and these GORGEOUS Gerberas, We created these fantastic, shabby chic, centerpieces for a Daddy/Daughter Dance at a local Atlanta country club.

(Using wood from old broken truck pallets, we created these boxes!)

Gerbers are the 5th most popular cut flower! No wonder, when they add a freshness to any arrangement they are added to!
