CRATE AND PALLET BEFORE AND AFTER!

I ACTUALLY FINALLY FINISHED A

PIECE OF MY OWN! AND NO
ONE WAS MORE SURPRISED THAN ME!

I ALSO LINKED THIS UP AT THE

JUNKER NEWBIE LINK PARTY

AS I HAD SHARED THE CRATE WHEN I 
FIRST GOT IT UNFINISHED OVER

AT HER WOULD YOU BUY IT PARTY.
CHECK IT OUT!

I BEGAN THIS PROJECT OVER THE

SUMMER AND THESE ARE THE

PIECES I STARTED WITH

AN OLD GLASS CRATE THAT

A MAN GAVE ME WHEN HIS

GARAGE SALE ENDED AND HE COULD'NT

SELL IT!

AND AN OLD PALLET THAT
I TOOK APART

 I WOULD PUT THIS TOGETHER FOR

THE TOP....

I STARTED WITH THE DESIGN.

AND YES IT IS A UNION JACK 

DESIGN. I HOPE YOUR NOT TIRED OF

THOSE YET. I NEEDED MY OWN.

I FOUND THIS GUIDE ON THE INTERNET

ON HOW TO CORRECTLY DRAW THE

UNION JACK DESIGN.

I DREW THE DESIGN ON THE TOP PIECE

TO MY CHEST. AND HAD TO TAPE

EACH SECTION OFF WHEN I WAS

PAINTING

WELL AFTER PAINTING AND STAINING

AND ADDING ON SOME HARDWARE,

HANDLES AND WHEELS THIS IS 

WHAT I CAME UP WITH AND

I HOPE YOU LIKE IT AS MUCH AS

I DO!

AFTER...

I BOUGHT THE OLD PULL AT
AN ANTIQUE SHOP!

AND MADE MY OWN ROPE
HANDLES, YOU CAN BUY THE ROPE
AT LOWE'S

I HAVE IT IN MY LIVING ROOM

RIGHT NOW HOLDING BLANKET

THROWS, BUT YOU COULD YOU IT FOR

ANYTHING, IN A KIDS ROOM FOR

TOYS MAYBE. I LOVE THE MASCULINE

FEEL IT HAS TO IT!

HOPE YOU DON'T MIND ALL THE

PICTURES, BUT I HAVEN'T DONE

A PROJECT LATELY AND I WANTED

TO SHOW IT OFF A LITTLE.
