While I kind of liked this storage piece from Pottery Barn
What I really loved were the little, vintage looking aqua crates underneath...
Did you know they don't have those for sale in their catalog at all?.. how dare they!?
So of course, I had to make a few for myself..
It was as easy as painting a crate from Michael's, and stenciling a number on the front!
I made my number stencil by blowing up a font in Word and cutting it out with a craft knife.

They're jerks, sometimes! I'll see something amazing and look everywhere for the little letter by it in hopes that it's for sale. A LOT of their cute accessories are like that.
ReplyDeleteProbably cost a 1/4 of the price they would have put on them too. They sure do look great though!
ReplyDeleteSorry I missed the makeover party. I tried to do it late last night but could not get Mr Linky to cooperate.
AH! i'm SO going to make those! awsome!
ReplyDeletenever mind i just bought it. ;) thanks jen! -V

ReplyDeleteI LOVE those.
ReplyDeleteThat's the perfect aqua blue - what paint did you use? Thinking of painting the cabinet in my laundry room that color.......
They look fantastic!!
I love these Jen! why does Pottery Barn do that? Doesn't make sense, but so glad you came to the rescue! xo
