I’m very excited to be here and to show you how I made a wooden toolbox craft tote…
from an old broken wine crate.
The center piece is an old board that I cut
a hole in for a handle. To do that I determined where I wanted the handle, I drilled two 1″ holes and used a jigsaw to cut between the drilled holes.
This gave me the handle slot.
This gave me the handle slot.
Though I loved it the natural color,
I painted the toolbox a mustard yellow.
I used the paintbrush images from the
The brushes are printed on a laser printer and I used Modge Podge
to transfer them to the wood.
to transfer them to the wood.
Don’t you just love these “Do not touch”
cards from Carolyn @ Homework!
When the paper dried I rubbed it off
and the image stayed behind…it’s magic!
I made this toolbox for my crap craft stuff.
I don’t know about you but I have so much
stuff laying around all over my house that it will be nice to have it all in one place.
The compartments are perfect for jars.
And the handle is perfect for moving the mess from one place to another because somehow I never seem to work in one place!
Thanks so much Gail for having me visit!

Susan—I always love your projects! You make that whole drilling the two holes and using the jigsaw sound SO easy! It looks like it was manufactured, GREAT job girl! Always a pleasure to have you stop by.
