Oh Meg those are awesome. I saw some really cool shelves from crates on Pinterest the other day. I can’t remember if I pinned them but these remind me of those. I can’t wait to see you use them.
[…] Remember these crates I found in the garbage? I cleaned them up and we slapped some wheels on the good ones this past weekend. Et volia! Toy boxes with wheels. Not my idea and not even the first time I've done it, but it is still awesome. Blocks are heavy and a pain to drag out, but no longer! All thanks to the almighty wheel. […]
Always cool! Great collection.
My favorite possessions when I was about 7 were 6 or 7 peach crates that I would use to build forts, play store, use as shelves, I loved those!
that is so sweet!
total score, you’re the queen of great finds! :)
Arggg!!!! I want some. Seriously, I’ve been on the look out. Are there special places to look? Or did do the thrift gods just like you more? ; )
I want you to give me thrifting/curb shopping lessons! I can never find the cool stuff you pick up.

Well done your sharp eyes!

How can they seriously ask 100 dollar for wood boxes? Sadly, I’ve considered buying them. But no more! Thank you, garbage.
Oh to find such coverable trash!
Coverable? I meant covetable.
Damn! So jealous…
My god woman….you are crate crazy!
I see potential! I love wooden crates.
This is my first visit to your blog and I just wanted to say ‘I shall return ;-)’
You’re not kidding … that really is a great score!
Nice finds! Am always on the lookout here but only rarely find any.
Who in the world would be throwing them away???? Very cool find!
Love them!!! How do you do that???
Super trouvailles! Super trash!!
