A solution to getting my boxes up

Normally I wouldn’t make an entire post on putting boxes up on the wall, but I was perplexed as to how to get them there.  I got a few opinions on how best to do it, but the one that worked best for me was to use toggle bolts.  It worked!!!

It involved math or something like that; measuring at least to get them centered and level and where to drill the hole in the box and where to drill the hole in the wall and get it all to mesh together.  I am a total dork when it comes to measuring.

Now that it’s daylight, you can see a better likeness of the Minwax special walnut stain. I will definitely use it again.

  5. Wait--you MADE those boxes?! Awesome! I was wondering where you got them. I think I got here from the Clean and Scentsible linky.
