82) Pergola from Upcycled Wood
This pergola is made entirely from upcycled wood. This was constructed from a demolished deck but after this project, the deck looked like it was featured from a home and garden magazine. The wood was picked from a scrap lumber for free and therefore the builder was able to save money from making this project.
The rafters were equally spaced, the deck, sides, and roof were painted dark to hide imperfections on the wood. And of course, accessories were added to complete the look. Bamboo blinds, LED lights, outdoor furniture, pillows, and lamps were included to prepare this area for a lovely family time. Come and get the plans for this pergola here.
