Pallet chess set

A friend had an old square wood coffee table that was very weathered. So my husband painted it to look like a giant checker/ chess board. He then used his table saw and made a custom wooden chess set out of some old pallet pieces, the rest of the pallet is a new mini deck and vertical veggie garden. He stained the pieces and now he just need to teach me how to play. I took some smooth stones and painted 1/2 red & 1/2 yellow, then used acrylic paints to make checkers pieces. Works great and cost us ZERO :-) Actually every thing you see in this picture was free, including the chair :-)
