Vintage Wood Crates: Upcycled & Repurposed



I'll never forget the surprise I got when I bought my first house (which was an estate sale - we bought the house and everything in it, and spent the first two weeks going through all the stuff and cleaning it all out!) ...and in the kitchen was an old white painted pie-safe-type cabinet with various odd-sized drawers. But that wasn't the big surprise. The big surprise came when I took the first drawer out of the cabinet to empty it out and discovered that it was made from an antique fruit crate! In fact, all the drawers were. I was in love! I still have this "treasure" of a homemade cabinet and will never part with it! 

Check out what these creative folks have done with salvaged wine, beverage, and fruit crates and be inspired!
