Originally used for storing kitchen ingredients in the pantries of Shaker homes in the 19th century, the Shaker style oval box design maintains modern appeal as a catchall for folks who like sleek contours and the luminescence of steam bent wood.

Made by volunteers at The Carpenter's Boat Shop in a fundraising effort, this box is a very useful storage option. Multiples can be nested when not in use, which is also quite helpful for storage space. Think about organizing buttons and sewing materials in the home as much as screws and drill bits out in the wood shop.

- Measures 5" x 7.5" x 3"
- Wipe clean with dust cloth

Every season at The Carpenter's Boat Shop, a staff of carpenters instructs apprentices in the trades of boatbuilding and boat restoration. The 501c3 nonprofit organization supports those who are interested in handcraft - or sea craft - and happen to be experiencing a transition in life that allows them to come live in Maine in an intentional community that does a lot of good.

The venue really does make for a great neighborhood gathering space. Interesting and hardworking people come through the shop every year, and they do great things like stacking wood for folks who need help. In fact, a group of apprentices came over to shovel snow for Catherine when Lil was an infant and Karl was at sea for work. That's the founder of The Good Supply and her family for those who have yet to meet them!

90% of proceeds for these sales go back to The Carpenter's Boat Shop. Acting as the online store for such a great organization is our way of giving back. We'd like to help them operate as smoothly in the next 42 years as they have for the last 42! For more information, please visit their website by clicking here.
