This is another fantastic project @Lorraine28.

I always love seeing recycled materials turned into something that will keep them in use and out of the scrap heap for years to come.

The colours are vibrant, and the varnished timber looks fantastic. It's hard to believe the benchtop is all pallet wood.

I'm a big fan of the mitred picture frame alongside the fascia board finish. The craftsmanship is exceptional.

Thank you for sharing another magnificent project.
