My good friend Dianah was telling me about her husband Scott who had to have major surgery on his back. Scott is a very talented carpenter who’s business was building complicated staircases. While recuperating from his surgery he came to the conclusion that he could no longer continue to build staircases.
In his journey to find a new way to be constructive, he found that he could take old shipping pallets and create works of art from them.
Did you know that pallets are made from all different kinds of wood? Some are made from black walnut, cherry, and oak. I was surprised to hear that.
Here are a couple of his beautiful creations!
The great thing about Scott’s new career is his passion for what he is doing. And we all know that passion drives success. Scott will be successful in this new venture because of his passion for what he does.






Very nice work! I did not know that pallets were made from different types of wood…interesting! Thanks for sharing!
Thanks Vanessa. Can’t wait to see what he comes up with. Appreciate the visit to my site.
What a great way to use old pallets! And what beautiful pieces!
Thank you for sharing.
Thanks Matilda. Looking forward to having one of those in my home. Maybe a toy box for my grandbabies.
It’s wonderful to see he is using his talents in other ways. Way to go Scott!
Thanks for the comment Toni. His wife says that he is a new person since he has found his passion. Thanks again for commenting.
