Fun w' boxes!

Recommended Posts

So carrying over from the recent projects thread, I've been having much silly fun with boxes of late. I found a great resource for pine wine boxes from the local booze shop as well as Michael's and Hobby Lobby craft stores.

So today I finished up my by-level cargo box:

This is a recent wine and goblet box:

I've two more mine boxes to convert and a crate. Whoohoo!

Now and then we had a hope that if we lived and were good, God would permit us to be pirates.

Thank ye much! Oh there's not much more on a hot summers day that I like more than a Pimms and iced tea!

Hmmm, I've never tried it with iced tea. I use Vernors Old Fashioned Ginger Ale, and a slice of lime. Yum!

Funny! I've been making boxes for gear as well lately. I recognize the top one from Michael's - took a good look at that one myself and ended up making something similar out of cheap rough lumber. I'll have to get some pics.

Good stuff.

Thank ye again all. The wood burning is actually easier than you'd think. I’d recommend picking up a cheap set from a local hobby shop and practicing. It’s fun and oddly relaxing. I got the work done on my smugglers box while watching Master and Commander.
