OT: Need xerox boxes that are pretty

"ahmward" <nospam.ahmw...@yahoo.com>
I recently painted my computer/collect all room. The furniture is moved
to make the room look larger, books are in the bookcases and it really
looks nice but I still have 4–5 boxes of crap that have no place else to
go. I will check the container store but are there other sites that
have nice looking solid color containers that don't say this box
contains crap? The boxes contain teaching and service club materials I
can't discard and my cupboards are full. TIA

I'd say "Target" but my parents accuse me of being monotonous when it
comes to recommending shopping at Target. <grin/duck>
PS: I did say, "Pop, you need a tractor battery? You can't buy a
tractor battery at Target." (You can buy one at Wal–Mart.)

Get some boxes at an office supply store – or ask at a place that does
Xeroxing – and cover them with self–stick paper or pretty wall–paper
that goes with your decor.
Perhaps a roll of nice grass cloth paper?

Right now, the website is behaving badly, so I can't "get" any
URLs for you –– but, look for their book–cloth collection
(including #66–6220826, 66–6219984, 66–6220404) and pebbled–leather
office accessories, including 66–6205108.

Thank you. I ended up purchasing two sand colored bold boxes from The
Container Store but after the holidays I want to rethink the way I store
items and look for more attractive containers. The Real Simple
household organization magazine has lots of examples of storage
containers.
