I get old wooden wine crates from eBay, sand them smooth and attach two ceramic knobs to make it look like a drawer. I always fill them with diapers and wipes and give them away as baby shower gifts - later they’re used as toy boxes for years.

I made „I spy bags“ - leftover fabric, dry rice, little used figurines from the thrift store and the window was made from plastic pouches that are used to pack fireworks rockets (in Germany anyways) - people always leave them behind on New Years :/
