Rustic Crate Trunk

Today, I decided to do a little project that would be somewhat functional and that would fill a void in one corner of my living room.  It started with two old crates that I've had sitting in the basement.


I went to Home Depot and bought all of this...


First, I painted all the black with the exception of the castor wheels.  Next, I attached the wheels to the bottom of one of the crates.


Then I attached the hinges to the inside of the crates using one of the crates as a lid.  I secured the corner brackets to the top and bottom crate, added the handles to the sides and the latch/lock to the front of the crates.  This is it finished...





Thanks for stopping by...

  3. Saw your feature at Saturday Sparks and had to stop by. Your crate project turned out wonderfully. I like that you can use it as a side table as well. Going to check out some other posts on your blog now that I've found it!
