I use them as storage containers around the house. I use them in the kitchen cupboards because they stack nicely: one for spice containers or that don't fit in the spice rack, one for bags of rice, beans, etc. I also use one in the garage shelves to hold all the car-cleaning stuff, one on the shelf in the basement to hold the laundry stuff, etc. They're very handy!

As a child with my mom, and now with my daughter, I make them into doll beds. Cover the bottom with a piece of felt and glue it down. Paint the sides or cover with paper. Add lace trim if desired. Perfect for small dolls!

Its not a craft, but I use mine to store some of my smaller tree decorations in - and that box goes in the big box with all the rest.

These are all good ideas. I hope there is something I can do with them, so far, nothing strikes my fancy. ;o)

I fill them with greenery and plastic Christmas decorations and set at door way.I've also painted them and used them like a tray for gift giving. Enjoy.

I turned one upside down, drilled several holes in the "bottom", then painted it. I use this for storing assorted scissors, especially the fancy paper edging type. The size of the holes will depend on the size of your scissors. As an elementary school art teacher, I also use a box to store the safety scissors in the classroom. The kids can access them easily since the handles are sticking up.

I have painted them a pretty scarlet and piled them high with scented pine cones - or painted hunter green and piled with red apples or red & green apples.

I use them for making Thanksgiving and Christmas fruit baskets.

Makes a great planter (and a good gift). A few years ago I bought a roll of 4" high "picket fencing" at a craft store and hot-glued it all around the sides. I put a plant in it and added dried moss to make it prettier. Depending on the size of the plant, you may be able to fit two or three smaller plants in it.

I have painted them or glued Christmas wrapping paper on the ends with the printing and then put cookies in small celophane bags and filled the crates with Christmas cookies for gifts.

Maybe you can use it as a easter center piece put the green easter grass in and put maybe a little bunny or chick in the middle then put plastic eggs in it.or put you mail in it. You may even paint it and set a flowerpot in it. Well hope these help.
