One man’s trash is another man’s treasure

Tag sale season is over, but I wanted to share this awesome find!  I went to a garage sale last month looking for a wine rack.  When I spotted this bad boy for $1, I was all over it!  Like I said before, I love unusual storage items.  It’s an old fashioned milk crate.  Since I’ve been stalking perusing the Restoration Hardware website for decorating inspiration, I though this would fit right in at a much more purse-friendly price.

  1. oh what a cute find! I love that there are wine bottles in it. Great use! 😉

  2. Hey thanks for stopping by my blog! Being a wino myself, with minimal decorating knowledge I am quite envious of your find. Love the idea it looks great! I wish I could see how things like this could work in my home! I look forward to checking out your blog more often 🙂

    • Yahpee, I know this sounds obvious, but it took me some time to figure this out. If you have a photo or a clear idea of what you want a room to look like it’s way easier to look at something (like a dusty old milk crate) and decide if you can do something with it or not. Check out younghouselove.com’s “mood boards” for some awesome ideas. I’ll be posting more about all this stuff soon. I made my own mood board for every room in my house. Can’t wait to shae it all. Thanks for visiting!
