Boxes and crates

So much can be done with an old wooden box.

Not only this humble object is great for storage, but it can look really

charming when put in the right space.

Plush palate

Design Squish

And here's what we did with a box found in the attic.

It says:

"British refined

Cube sugar

Tate and Lile

 Limited

London".

I believe it belonged to a famous Lithuanian architect and

should be about 80 years old. When discovered it was dark grey and the

letters could hardly be deciphered. Took us a while to get it to look like this!

There's plenty more to be discovered in that attic,

but more on that later...
