I have seen and love the look of berry boxes used for lunch boxes.
Berry boxes are great for berries, of course.
I have a few purple berry boxes from several years ago - purchased with fruit in them, but I don't remember anything more than that.
They have some berry stains and are a bit faded around the rim, but I love the color of these purple berry boxes. I could spray paint them to clean them up, or wrap a ribbon around the part that is stained.
Check out the painted boxes and the ceramic and plastic boxes I shared about in a previous post here.
I have searched for these berry baskets/boxes (online) and have found a few sites that sell them. I'm sharing what I have learned; from where they can be purchased and what the prices are.
(shipping is not included in any of the prices listed here)
(This info is as of August 2013 - of course all this may change)
I haven't seen purple in my search for berry boxes (except for some ceramic here and here), so these are all the green or turquoise color.
