DIY Reclaimed Wood Projects for a Rustic Home

Turn leftover wood or old pieces of furniture into DIY reclaimed wood projects! Wood is one of my favorite materials to work with. The possibilities are endless and they give such a homey and cozy feel to any rustic home. My husband, Dave, and I sometimes even go the extra mile and carve our initials on a little spot. It’s our own way of making our DIY project even more personal! Here’s a list of some of our favorite DIY reclaimed wood projects!   

1. Patio Cooler Stand

Keep your drinks nice and cold with this patio cooler stand you can DIY from reclaimed wood. It’s perfect for those hot summer days when all you want to do is relax and enjoy a cold one with your friends.

2. Wheelbarrow Garden Planter

This wheelbarrow garden planter will make your neighbors green with envy. This time, your flowers aren’t the only gorgeous pieces in your garden.

3. Blanket Ladder

Display your favorite blankets on a blanket ladder. This will be a huge hit during sleepovers and it will give the room a more cozy feel as well. A word of warning, be careful not to mistake the blanket ladder for one you can step on, as it’s not as sturdy as a real ladder.

4. Garden Bar

DIY a garden bar you and your friends can use during the next barbecue. This one makes use of reclaimed timber and discarded pallets, while the bar top is made of old roof joists.

5. Bench

This ultra chic bench looks so aesthetically pleasing thanks to its wooden top, black steel plates, and the faux sheepskin casually laid on top. It’ll definitely make your home Pinterest-worthy.View image on Twitter

6. Pallet Garden Walkway

Construct a walkway just by laying spare pallet boards in your garden. You can even line the pathway with rocks to make it look like it was built by a landscaper.

7. Storage Chest

This storage chest can hold anything from toys to old clothes. It’s made of solid oak and wooden dowels and it can be passed down to generations to come.

8. Moose Head Artwork

Have a moose inspired artwork on your wall sans the taxidermy. It’ll be an interesting addition to your cabin’s wall décor and will look perfect above a fireplace.

9. Wine Rack

A  playful design of deconstructed pallet boards that is sure to add a functional work of art to any home. I personally love how this wine rack has chalkboard labels at the bottom. It’s one way to learn the different types of wine.

10. Entry Table

Have extra space in your entryway? Put in a beautiful reclaimed wood and pipe entry table. Put an accessories tray on the table to have an area where you can put your house keys and extra coins. That way, you won’t have to ask anyone where the house keys are.

11. Octagon Mirror

Aside from adding an entry table, you can also place this adorable mirror near your front door. Doesn’t it look exactly like the expensive one you saw in the mall?

12. Wood Wall

Fill any room with rustic charm when you place in a wooden wall. Use a sawzall to disassemble the pallet boards. Trust me, it makes the work so much easier and not to mention, faster.

13. Mason Jar Chandelier

This mason jar chandelier will give your dining room a nice warm glow. Ensure your knots are tight so you don’t run the risk of the chandelier falling on the table.

14. Barn Wood Coffee Table

This barn wood coffee table was not sanded and painted to retain its natural weathered wood look. To help seal the moss on the wood, 3 coats of light spray were applied on the coffee table.

15. Jewelry Holder

Create a fun and creative jewelry holder that will act as a focal point in your bedroom! All you have to do is screw in some hooks and drill some nails to put some knobs in.

16. Wooden Frame

The best part about this wooden frame is you can also give it as gifts to family and friends. If you place a special photo in, the gift would be even more memorable.

17. Rustic Wood Lamp

This rustic lamp will be a cool addition to your bedroom or living room. Personally, I love how the lamp is both rustic and chic at the same time. The color of the wood is a good contrast to the colors of midnight blue and white.

18. Sofa Table

Add the beauty of simplicity with this rustic sofa table. If you look closely, you’d see there are two colors on the table’s legs. The trick to this is using a strip of tape placed around the leg, and then painting your first color. The tape helps serve as a deterrent to prevent you from painting the other part of the table leg.

19. Pallet Wood Chair

This is a piece of furniture that will definitely wow your guest. A pallet wood chair will look great in a living room or at a patio. Don’t forget to throw on different textures for the pillows to make it look even cozier.

20. Coat Rack

You’ll only need one piece of reclaimed wood to make this coat rack. This design features vintage gate valves as the hooks, and I love how they were painted in vibrant colors. Don’t they just stand out from the coat rack?
