    Default Berry Boxes ! Great craft item, sew some up!
    End of last year I bought these berry boxes for .99c. I WAS going to use them for all my cherry tomatoes this year, however....I, 2-toned painted them & sewed a pretty 12" sq for inside. Now , I think they can be in the kitchen, for rolls, snacks. Or anywhere you'd like a pretty catch all box!

    Those would look cute on a kitchen shelf.

    We don't get those boxes anymore - we only see the clear plastic ones. You have a great idea.

    Cute idea. i like your liners to. We never get to keep the baskets here. They dump everything in a bag.

    OH my, must keep an eye out for them when I buy dog/cat food. Clever idea to use them all about the house.
