Kauri Flour Bins II

Five months ago, I posted these photos of our kauri flour bins, purchased from TradeMe and a shot of James stripping the paint off them.



Since then James has sanded them down, oiled them and installed them in the kitchen. At the moment, they're looking quite rustic but once we've decided what colour to paint the kitchen, we'll probably do the bins in a contrasting colour.




There are a few too many borer holes in the bins and far too many ants in our kitchen for me to even consider putting flour in them. But I have found the perfect use for the drawers and bins - housing my ever expanding collected of plastic bags.
