Vintage Tool Caddys

We made vintage tool caddys for Amzie, Evan and Camryn
  Evan used his at one of the egg hunts
 Grandpaw sent him home with real tools to use
 I got a big girl box
and painted it green
and glazed it with the RL smokey glaze
 and drilled drainage holes in each bin
  and lost my drill bit in the box
lined each bin with a scrap of screen
and planted oregano, cilantro and lemon balm
 l.o.v.e. my vinty tool caddy - a.k.a. container herb garden

    Very creative! I love them all and think planting herbs in the last one is a great idea. I have been looking for an old tool caddy like this forever!!

    I got a kick out of building myself one of these and will make plenty more. The screen in the bottom is a great idea. Thanks for sharing, loved it.
