Creative Uses for Apple Crates in Your Home Decor

by Mandi on July 20, 2011

A few months ago, I came across a picture of an apple crate shelf, and I was instantly hooked. I love the rustic look of apple crates, especially when combined with modern elements, and I would use them throughout my whole house if I could!

Here are some of my favorite ideas for apple crates:

We abosulutely love restaurant.com! Our favorite local mexican restaurant is listed on there so we get a deal on it on a regular basis! We also use it to go to places we wouldn’t typcially splurge for!
