Someone posted a status update on Facebook the other day in which they were looking to unload some crates.
You KNOW I’m all over that!
Only problem – they were a bit pricey – but they did get me to surfing the internet for the “crate-est” ideas!
Check these out and tell me you’re not heading out scavenging crates later today. lol
Christmas decor for your front porch. I love this.

I think I need one of each – who knew repurposing could look so good?
Time to go salvaging!
HEY! There’s an idea – You could use crates for trunk storage! (not as a condom of course)
Have a great one!
