I love making crates and boxes!
I pin boxes and crates all the time.
When I saw Becky's red kitchen tote I knew
I wanted to make one similar...

Mine is made from driftwood... Pieces of wood, planks and boards
that have floated ashore and were found on the beach. By me.

I love all the things you can do with crates and totes...
I have crates for everything!
This box was made using driftwood from my Driftwood Hunt
It is almost 2 feet long and 5 inches wide.
Made of old, sun bleached boards.
It has a solid old broom stick for the handle...
And vintage drawer pulls on each side for jewelry.
This is big, heavy and reminds me of the beach!
The perfect crate for anything!
Thanks for the inspiration Becky!





Beautiful Susan, it's got the beachy vintage look I just love, love, love!
ReplyDeleteGreat tote, Susan! I could see using this to hold lots of things!
ReplyDeleteI almost did this Pinterest Challenge thing, but couldn't get it together. Ahh...maybe the next one.:)
ReplyDeleteI love rustic, old metal and any kind of container. This is great! I see it with blue ball jars and silverware for dining alfresco or changing up for different holidays. Very cute!
