Wooden Crates From Old Window Blinds

Upcycle your old window blinds and turn them into pretty, decorative wooden crates for your pots, with this easy tutorial!
I love this upcycled crate. Well…to be honest, I love all upcycled crafts (as long as they are safe). And I don’t know about you but I am extra fond of crafts that have zero cost. ;)
And it was even easier to make than our PB inspired bookcase ledges.

Materials:
Make two opposing sides first.
Nail or staple the slats on the sticks. I chose staplers for the roughed out look and in all honesty, I really like using my stapler – it’s so easy!

Frequently asked questions
Have a question about this project?
Thank you for your post. I've been thinking of using my discarded wood blinds to build a privacy screen for outdoors. Would the slats need to be treated for outdoor use? How have yours held up to weather conditions?
Can you please tell me what heavy staple gun you used and size of staples. I would love to do this project. Thank you.
