Another Mail Organizer

When I find the right containers,

adding large springs can transform them into

handy mail organizers!

 

Here is my first one:

Long Handled Tin

It sold swiftly!

 

Now here is the tool box variation:

 

 

The trick is to find a container narrow enough to squeeze

the old bed springs in tightly. 

It must also be tall enough that they don't stick out the top

too much & catch or cut people.

 

This tool box had many holes drilled in the bottom.

I used a vintage calendar page to line the bottom.

 

This tool box is cute & primitive.

It's also been used for many years,

because the handles is worn completely smooth!
