Reusing Wine Boxes

I am in the process of trying to locate some old wine storage boxes. You know, the kind that are made like lots of X's and you lay the bottles down in them?

Anyway I think those would make a fantastic way to store and organize all my yarns! And it'd look nice too because I plan on painting them a nice happy color!

Once I get them all done, I'm going to attach some small 3-drawer units to the top to store smaller things in.

Reusing Wine Boxes

Does any one have any ideas for reusing wine boxes? I have the 5 liter size.

Next time you are at the grocery store, ask for those empty boxes used to hold bottles of wine. They fit really well under most bathroom sinks and with the 12-bottle insert left inside (most important!) you can store all the various bottles of shampoo, liquid soap, toilet bowl cleaner, ajax, etc; one in each slot. I even wallpapered my boxes, because I wanted them to look pretty every time I opened my cupboard. Best of all, the stuff under our sinks is now organized (it is so much easier to find things!) Who could ask for more, free stuff, easy to do, and it looks good.

These boxes are also great to store Christmas tree bulb ornaments in. (10/01/2008)
