Hey girls. I forget where I saw this idea, but I tried it: making a cute box out of cast-off old fashioned sewing machine drawers. There were a couple I found laying around when I moved into our old farmhouse, and I saved them. Then Today I made a cute box from one...... check out my blog to see it! (Click below)

That is a very neat idea! I like them as they are, without paint! |

That is so cute. I have a hard time looking at an item and seeing a new purpose for it. Great job!!!

Very nifty idea. See, this is what I get for listening to MY dh. I passed on a couple of those old sewing machine drawers at an auction recently. The good old dh just sneered and said: "What in the world would you DO with just drawers???" Next time, I'll be prepared to fire back with your idea!

I think adding the knobs for feet is just to clever!!
