It may not seem like you are doing much to help the planet when you purchase one of these picture frames made from old shipping pallets, but in fact you are. Every year, millions of these plentiful shipping platforms are relegated to landfills. An estimated 40% of all hardwood harvested in the United States makes its way into wooden pallets, with a whopping 2/3 of them being used only once before being discarded! Of all the wood found in U.S. landfills, one fourth is from used pallets.

While the big solution to this incomprehensible waste would be re-use or production from different materials, every wave starts with a ripple. Let that ripple be you with these photo frames made from a shipping pallet that no longer will contribute to an already overflowing landfill.

Shipping pallets get bumped around, jostled, and dented randomly, so each one of these frames will have a different appearance, making it a one-of-a-kind piece for your treasured photos!

Please note that these frames are designed to hang on the wall and are not for tabletop use as there is no mechanism for them to stand upright.
