old crates new meaning

i had been searching for a bedside table for weeks, and I finally found the perfect one – three old, semi-dirty Coca-Cola crates stacked on top of each other!  i am all about using objects for something other than it’s intended purpose and this is not only a super easy idea, it looks awesome…

since my room is painted sea foam green, i decided to go with that color scheme.  succulents are also my favorite kind of plant (lovely and easy to care for!) so it worked out perfectly.  the crates were $10 each from a random yard sale so the total price is $30 for your very own customizable bedside table!

shop vintage soda crates online here – also Pottery Barn has some great ones for $24 each here. send us photos of your own crafty crate uses to [email protected]!
