Hello friends.
Todays post is especially special – becoz I am joining my creative friends at Do It Over Designers.
How cool is it to connect with like minded creative friends who love to upcycle and breath life into old mundane objects – just like I do !!
My youngster son is an 18 year old who loves to shop online, especially from Amazon. So while my son enjoys his booty – I enjoy making use of the carton, his goods arrived in !!
Storage is just one purpose of these tiny to small size Amazon cartons – here’s one way I gave a makeover to the humble carton.
Find out, how It went from this

This is a great way to make use of some of those boxes that we have sitting around the house. Especially this year when we’re all ordering most of our gifts to be delivered to our houses and avoiding shopping in-store as much as possible. Is anyone else swimming in boxes? Just me? lol
Totally agree with you. Thank you for dropping by.
