Ok, so my son Weston absolutely loves clementines, and can eat a box in 2 days. I found that the little boxes fit perfectly on my shelves in my craft closet. I also save them for gift baskets. I should first tell you that I don't buy gift wrap any more and haven't for years. I feel that spending money on something you throw away is so wasteful in more ways than one, and not good for the environment, so I make fabric gift bags or put the item in something useful. For these little crates I would line them with a pretty dish towel or a scarf or even a scrap of fabric, then place the gift in. They're great at Christmas for food gifts.
I just got done with my belt chair and had one small one left over. I stapled it to the bottom of this crate and tucked West's toiletries in under his sink.
This would be a great gift container too!
Does anyone else have some fun idea's for these little cuties? I would love your thoughts, and please be thoughtful of your world when buying things that will just get thrown out again. I brought my kids up using cloth napkins, cloth diapers and now cloth grocery bags. They all turned out just fine.Go Green!
