As I was taking a walk on a charming street in Cornwall I noticed this assortment of brown colored boxes. They made an interesting display.
You can see different words on the boxes when you stand on the other side.

They are neat, did you buy one?
I didn’t but I should have – they would make great souvenirs!
They surely would!
Better than a postcard… :)
Agreed. Can you read my comments? Word press is REALLY bad tonight?
I did find your comment after some searching… :)
Thanks for the effort Meg :) Kathryn
You’re very welcome Kathryn!
Big smile : )
I love old boxes like that, built to last.
They had a lot of character – I really liked them!
Love those boxes! Wish I had some for my home decor. They’d be great for growing herbs in, like the one at the top with the plant pots in it. The interplay of shades of brown is soft and soothing. Usually we go for the big blues and greens and other bright colours in our travel shots, but this one is appealing in its own way.
I thought that box was so pretty with the display of plants. It was such a good idea to show how versatile the boxes would be if you decided to buy them!
Lovely take on this!
Thanks, this was a fun challenge!
You don’t see boxes like that very often in North America anymore. Quite a nice find.
I thought these boxes were really unique and I’m so happy that I found them!
I like them! :)
I do too – they make a wonderful display!
Wonderful old boxes. So many ways to use them too. Great pictures!
Thank you Darlene! I thought they were simply delightful… :)
Great boxes, could find many uses for them at our house :-)
It would be a fun challenge deciding where to put these boxes!
What a wonderful thing to find! I love how the boxes are set up perfectly for a photo. :-D
It was an unexpected scene and I’m really happy to have found it… :)
I’d love to have those wonderful old boxes. They make such an interesting garden statement. Brown is a wonderfully natural, earthy color. Sometimes we don’t give it the due it deserves! Good job!
Thanks Debra! I liked those brown boxes too – the colors were just right… :)
reminds me of the old butter box my grandparents had to store bits and pieces in :) lovely entry for brown Meg :)
Thank you! That must have been a wonderful (and interesting) box too… :)
To think these were so ordinary in the past and now quite the thing to have ;-)
Lovely find Meg .
That’s what I thought – in the past these boxes were just everyday items! But now they’re more like collectibles… :)
Love the boxes with all the names printed on the sides…the faded lettering on the wood. Very lovely and aged…just like Cornwall wouldn’t you say?
I couldn’t agree more Teresa! It was a lovely sight… :)
Great findings those boxes.
Thank you – they made quite a unique display!
I love these wooden boxes with their rope handles, I wish I had a few to pop some plants in.
I liked that the plants were placed in the boxes – it really showed their versatility!
