Tea station improvement

Due to very high temperatures during summer tea or herbal teas are definitely not an option! However fall is now arriving to the Spanish coast and a cup of tea is now OK for me around 5pm. 
I use to store my tea and herbal tea bags in the same place: a very simple but functional tea box. I remember painting it white a few years ago. 
While checking my monthly tea supplies I realized I could improve a little bit this sad off white color with a few details so I started a real tea station improvement.

Reuse crates and drawers

A year ago or maybe more, I told you about wine crates. I waxed some of them with an asphalt patina but forgot about the leftovers as I didn't know what to do with them...

Reuse wine crates

This is my "wooden boxes" section... 
I don't know if you remember when I mentioned I was given a few wooden wine boxes a while ago... I have plenty of them now so I took a few for decorating my living room and a few more for my bathroom storage. They all have their stamp from the winery they are from (Spain and France) so I definitely decide not to paint them in order to keep their character. However I used asphalt to distress and age them a bit.
