Today is crate day!
Hooray!
Thanks for requesting the plans. This was such a fun easy project to make. And did I say cheap? Try under $5 cheap!
I try to do plans here and there to help you use up scrap wood pieces. Those of you who have a few projects under your belt - uh toolbelt - probably have a pile of short board scraps needing a home. This is a perfect project for using up 1x3s and 1x2s and scrap 1/4" plywood. No scraps? Each crate just needs two 1x3s and about 2 feet of 1x2s and some 1/4" plywood.
Have a wedding this summer? These would make cute inexpensive DIY wedding centerpiece that double as table numbers! I'd go a little smaller in size as this crate is actually pretty good sized though!
And yes, of course, you can take this basic design and modify to any size you want! You are the boss of your project - why not make it your own!
PS - Loving this crate so much, I'm thinking about making a chalkboard produce crate dresser.
PSS - Love the finish? I'll be posting that tutorial as well!
