repurposed bread box

I was inspired by Tracy at Tracy’s Trinkets and Treasure to make over this old bread box. Well, that was many months ago and it just sat, and sat.

I came up with my version of the medicine box, but with a twist.

My kids were always asking where the cords are to charge their phones, so I decided to put all of the chargers in one spot.

The top holds the medicine that we use most often (which isn’t much)

I was able to solve two issues in one fell swoop Smile

  4. Great idea for a medicine box. I keep my daily prescription on the lazy Susan spice rack in the cupboard near my kitchen sink. One of these pre-coffee groggy mornings I'm going to swallow a peppercorn by mistake.

  5. LOVE the charging station! Who needs to spend $40 on a Target buy when you can wrangle something with so much interesting character that is so completely YOU?!

  6. That's awesome! I acquired one of these last year and just painted it white a couple weeks ago. The top lifts on mine, so I have a plant in it. It's not what I envisioned, so I am sure it will find another purpose before long. I hope you are having a nice weekend!
