Make a DIY IKEA Hack Crate
There's nothing else to call this crate besides
cute and funky.
cute and funky.
The sides of the crate are from the back of a chair... that's why they don't quite match each other, they were once one long piece.
The handle is from a lamp table I found in front of my neighbor's house.
Remember the garden sign and the bun footed table tray?
Well there was still a pole left over... I've just gotta keep re-purposing till there's nothin' left!
The whole box got a vinegar and steel wool solution because it evens out the colors and makes all the pieces match.
A little later however, I decided to paint the crate with Martha Stewart Sea Glass Paint.
I added a tsp. of un-sanded grout and water to make my own chalky paint.
A better name for this color might be vintage mason jar...
Look at that color!
