I saw this incredible crate this week made by
Today's Fabulous Finds. I had to make one for myself like yesterday. So that's exactly what I did. Yesterday. I made one. LOL.

This one is from Janet @ Today's Fabulous Finds and you can find the entire tutorial over at her blog!
Here is mine! My handles are a bit thinner and not as "rope" looking but I don't mind and it's what I had on hand.
I used the same dark walnut stain as Janet did. I wanted it old and grungy looking. I didn't sand it or anything. Just slopped it on. My favorite technique.
I saw a little crate in a catalog somewhere sitting on a coffee table with candles in it and I knew this one would be perfect for the same idea.
I grabbed a bag of polished river rocks and filled it in. I love all the natural elements.
I really LOVE it! Thanks Janet!
