I made my own DIY garden furniture for £72 with stuff I found on eBay…here's how | The Sun

Chelsea Milligan shared a tutorial video on TikTok showing how she transformed the patio space behind her property.

The video shows Chelsea pushing wooden pallets, which had been given to her for free by her cousin, to the back garden.

She can be seen sanding down and prepping each pallet, which can be bought on eBay for just £1.25 each.

Chelsea purchased the pallet cushions off eBay, with similar sets going for £18 each and £72 for four, and just put them on top.

It is believed she used Cuprinol Garden Shades in the Barleywood colour, costing around £8 per litre at Wickes, to paint the pallets.

She assembles the garden furniture using three pallets for each seat - two for the base and one at the back.

And social media users were quick to react to the clip, which has received almost 100,000 views and around 2,000 likes.

One said: "I doing one of them now. Gonna have a table in the middle as well."

Another asked: "Hey! Do you have a more in depth step by step?"

A third quipped: "It's shocking how much paint the pallets suck up."

It comes after young mum Maddie shared a video online to give others a step-by-step guide to DIY seating on a budget.
