Antique Kitchen box shelves (custom design)

These shelves were made from the same old cedar crate I used for the first spice rack. After removing all the nails and selecting the most interesting planks, I jointed them into wider shelving and box sides. I finished off with iron nails and beeswax to give these shelves the antique look. I really love how the  beeswax feels on the wood without discolouring it in any way. I don't ever want to use wood stain or resins because natural wood is where the beauty lies - all I have to do is uncover it. If you'd like some custom made box shelves like these, just get in touch at my Facebook page here and let me know what you'd like. https://www.facebook.com/worksofwoodbyleone These shelves sold for £240 with the iron work. The cost for antique kitchen shelves starts from £175.00 and is only increased by the time taken to prepare the timbers ( breaking up and removing nails) which varies a lot depending where the wood is sourced.
