A lot of you have asked me about where I found my vintage crates......and I know craigslist can be a disappointing answer.  Although I will say craigslist requires patience and persistence when searching for something specific, I also know sometimes what you're looking for isn't out there at the time.  The other option that I wanted to mention is going to your local craft store and buying new crates and then aging them yourself to make them look vintage.  I know everyone wants the charm of the real deal, but it's at least another option.  Just promise me you won't spend the $130 + dollars per crate that a lot of retail stores are asking....ridiculous.  I love all the ways crates are used in these images:
