Aluminum Cornered Crate

This old crate is fashioned from the legs of an old saw horse, nails, drippy paint and all. I cut apart a loaf pan to use the corners and the joining wire to create eclectic details on this one of a kind crate

    Aluminum corners and a decorative handle complete the look.
