After seeing all of the beautiful tool caddies in the blogosphere I had to get on the bandwagon.
Let me show you how it started out. While doing some cleaning in the garage, I ran across this, two of them, in fact.
Quite a work of art! My kids got little wood working kits with tools for Christmas one year and this was one of the projects that they completed. One of them even has a name written on the bottom that I won’t be painting over! I wish that they had dated them too. My kids are now 22 and 23 so these are more than 10 years old! I added some little knob feet and small wood embellishments and painted away.
I use it to hold flatware when we are having guests at our summer cottage. Occasionally, I use it for seasonal décor.
I love being able to use this “family heirloom!”
I hope that you have a great first week of fall. I have a very busy next three weeks but hope to get some great photos to share with you!
I’ll be linking to Metamorphosis Monday at Between Naps On The Porch and to Wow Us Wednesday at Savvy Southern Style.

Great transformation on the tool caddy! Perfect for fall decor!
I love what you did with this little caddy. I have one that needs transforming and you gave me a great idea.
I just love your transformation and the fact that your kids made it make it even more special!

That turned out great - it's really pretty. I've just recently found a small one and am in the process of redoing it. Love yours!
Oh, I forgot to say, I'm now following! God bless!
