    Hi Donna, I posted my Railroad sign twice, got a little confused to where I should put it. You can delete one, if you so wish. Thanks for hosting a great party! Love the theme idea.

    Thank you for the crate inspiration! My husband and I just bought 6 for super cheap from the used book store (they had been using them as merchandise display). We've turned 3 into a shelf/nightstand.

    Donna,
    You just reminded me that I picked up a Coke crate in a shop in Indiana a few years ago. I have NO idea where it is. But, I'll find it ;)

    Thanks for having the coolest Saturday night party, Donna! I love old crates. I have a really cool Portland Bottling Co. Crate that I use for all sorts of things. Wish I had a post with it to share here. At least I have my cottage style chair makeover to share though.

    Hope your weekend is cozy and warm with plenty of rich, steamy coffee. :)

    Who knew there were SO many uses for all those old crates! I finally got with the program and had something for a themed link up. Mine is 100% junque. The Dresser dumped in the middle of the road missing drawers and a whole lot of crates found at one time in a dumpster. The two were meant to come together. Hope you are having a relaxing Sunday. Thanks for such a fun party. I love the themes!

    I love all the uses that you've thought of for these crates! I live in Atlanta and the Coca Cola plant is a BIG part of our history. There's a great museum there for anyone interested. Anyway, all over GA you can find little flea antiques with crates galore. You've inspired me to see what I can invent this weekend!!
