![]() Scrabble, just had some spare minutes and had a better look round craftgawker and from there I found http://www.make-it-do.com/ which is another nice site. There was one item there of interest - a woman bought the large box of detergent which didn't fit into her cupboards. So she fashioned a metal box into a new storage box for her detergent. Guess what the metal box was? An ammunition box!! Now where would I find one of those little babies?!!!

![]() Betty Boo, have a look at Buckley's auction rooms in Sandycove, I've got a few bargains there before. The auctions are usually on Thursdays but you can leave a bid in advance.
TickTock, you just reminded me that there's a couple of ammo boxes knocking around here somewhere. I'll have a mooch and see if they're the right ones. If so I'll put them up. Edit 25/5/11: here's the charming ammo box... |
