I love cedar boxes. all sizes all kinds. I like to touch them and hold them and would like to collect them.
My collection is small and out of sight. Each one given to me by my Mom, my Grandma or ones I have picked up when I was a young girl, I have small amounts of keepsakes in each one.
I have been looking for a larger cedar keepsake box to keep all my collectables in. No easy feat these days when the market is filled with crap from china or super cheap looking storage boxes.
So I turned to eBay. I found a couple of vintage cedar chests about the size I have been looking for (about 20ish +" by 10ish +" by whatever) and even though some are worn and scratched they still have more personality than anything I have found new. (I do love antique wood boxes) If I knew someone who did woodworking I would see how much one cost to make but I think it will be way over my $100.00 budget. So I will take my chance on eBay I guess. I just wish more were the "buy now" option. I dont like the auction thing.
I also tried Craigs list with no luck. I found some lane mini cedar boxes on Etsy, plus I think I will go to red lodge to see if they have any there. Im not a good antique store person. I would rather do it all on line.

Try Amazon, they might have what you're looking for or try cedarchests.com
ive tried them. They are all too big and the size I am looking for is only available in the storage chests, which are ugly.
Thanks though.
I will probably have to do some traveling to antique stores to get what I am looking for. The "new" ones aren't doin' it for me.
Thank you
