Vintage Wooden Storage Boxes

What to do with those old wood boxes?

There's just something about old wooden storage boxes that catches my eye.  I'm not sure if it's the thought of what was once stored in them or what I could possibly store in them myself.  And there's so much more to do with them then just leaving them as is.  

Vintage Cigar Boxes 

Old wood cigar boxes have charm on there own.  They would look wonderful as it on a desk or side table storing trinkets or other important items.  However, you could also jazz them up and use a cigar box as a jewelry box or wall shadow box arrangement.  

Vintage Cheese Boxes 

How wonderful are those long narrow cheese boxes or sewing machine drawers?  You could leave those as is and add flowers for a centerpiece or add vintage kitchen items for a display shelf. 

Industrial Wood Boxes

I've come across a lot of wood storage boxes which were used for industrial needs.  They originally held factory parts or nails and other industrial goodies.  These would look awesome displayed by themselves but could also have a lot of other purposes.  Mix and match different style of wood boxes to create your own display.
