I’ve always had a thing for old crates. Especially Coke crates since I’m a Diet Coke addict (my name is Kristen and I’m a Diet Coke addict). But I never really had a great use for crates. Maybe if my house were a bit larger, I’d store rolled up bath towels in them and leave them next to the clawfoot tub….or perhaps they’d store dry goods in my extra large walk-in pantry….or how about organizing the kids toys on the built-in shelves in the bonus room. All those ideas are fantastic but unfortunately for me, I don’t have any of those spaces in my current house. Boo.
So when I ran across these pics when googling something the other day I thought AHA!, that’s it. That’s a use for crates that I could work with now, in my tiny, cramped house. Now I just need to hunt some down. And you know, now that I’m looking for them I’ll never find them!
