Question
I live in the California Bay Area and would like to know how to obtain wine wood crate insignia pieces for craft building?

Answer
Hi Brian

The best way to get these is to ask a a fine wine shop--the wines that come in these kinds of boxes are usually pretty expensive, and sometimes the shops even sell the boxes for $5 or $10.  But that's the only place to get them.  Restaurants, too.  If you know exactly which wineries you want, you can also ask the winery where their wines are sold...and then follow up with the retailer or restaurateur.

The Napa Valley Wooden Box Company makes a lot of these...but I doubt they will give you any for free!
