Wine crates. They’re easy to find and they can function in so many different ways. They can be used simply as storage boxes, but today I have some other ideas for you. So head to your local liquor store to grab some used crates and let’s get started!  Â

2. Try taking wine crates apart and using them as wall tiles. This would look great on an accent wall behind a bar cart! [Photo: Patrick Ocaining]
3. The Rachel Ray Show teaches you how to make a rolling ottoman. Click here for a full tutorial. [Photo: The Rachel Ray Show]
4. Rolling storage is always handy too. Give your crate some character by painting it. See how to achieve this look here. [Photo: Funkytime]
5. Find a few different sizes and create a hanging herb garden… so clever! See this and other great wine crate projects here. [Photo: Houzz]
6. This is an easy one, but I never would have thought of it! Brittany will show you exactly how to make your own rope handled crate here. [Photo: Pretty Handy Girl]
7. Again, so simple but so genius. Grab some angle slots from Home Depot (typically used for industrial storage) and you’ll have new shelving in no time. See instructions here. [Photo: Pretty Neat Organizer]
8. Use a crate as a flower box on your deck or patio… very pretty. [Photo: The Sweetest Occasion]
