Woodworker on Vancouver Island I Used to Be a Pallet logo

Located in Victoria, on Vancouver Island, Ray from ‘I Used To Be A Pallet’ uses discarded pallets and upcycles them into repurposed products. Pallet wood is converted into various creations in these categories: Art, Bathroom, Commercial, Furniture, Interior Decor, Kitchen, Miscellaneous, Novelties, Outdoor, Seasonal Decor, Storage and Workshop.

I Used To Be A Pallet has crafted many wooden creations including bird houses, name puzzles, chests of drawers, bars, seasonal decor, coffee tables, and even little miniature pallet coasters!

They support the environment by repurposing wood, using end cuts to heat homes, using sawdust in gardens, and donating used nails to the metal recycling bins.

I Used To Be a Pallet can be found at several stores as well as local markets throughout the year, or you can visit their website to view the catalog of more than 350 products created by this Vancouver Island woodworker!
