DIY Wooden Crate

My husband and I have been on carpentry kick (if that’s what you call it) and one of the things we made is a wooden crate to go in front of our fireplace. It was definitely and experiment as this was our first wooden diy project, but I thought it turned out pretty good, so I wanted to share a tutorial, as it was such a quick project and very inexpensive I might add.

Here goes, I hope you enjoy!
