Mobile Pallet Bar You Can Set Up in Minutes

The great thing about pallets is you can normally find them for free or a very low cost. The amount of creative things you can do to repurpose them are endless.  In this project I’m going to show you how to set up an impromptu bar that you can set up away where.  It’s perfect for indoor and outdoor settings.  This is definitely a bar that can be utilized throughout the year.

Please note: Before working with any pallet you want to make sure it’s safe to work with.  How to Tell If a Pallet Is Safe for Reuse?  Not all pallets are safe to work with, especially if your intentions are to grow anything eatable.DIY Mobile Pallet Bar for indoor and outdoor use - Toolbox Divas

Steps:

  1. Prep your pallet. You may have to secure any broken parts. Often times pallet parts are broken. This is literally used to move really heavy things from one place to another, so it gets pretty banged up. Add stabilization board to bottom, if needed. I used a scrap 1×6 to the bottom of the pallet.

  3. Paint it in any color that fits your theme.  I’m preparing a Margarita bar in preparation of Cinco De Mayo.  So I opted for a bright lime green sample paint.  cinco de mayo Margarita Bar - Toolbox Divas   cinco de mayo Margarita Bar - Toolbox Divas

  9. In my case, given I’m prepping for Cinco De Mayo , I’m topping my bar with Margarita options and garnish. I  cut up lime and placed it in a cute ‘container’.  You can also place your beverage in a cute festive pitcher. NOW PARTY!
