Ok, I know I have brought up this topic before, but I am still agonizing over how to display my mug collection in my new condo. They are still packed away after 6 months, can you imagine that?

I considered those wall mounted IKEA cabinets with the glass doors, but I realize I have too many mugs for those, I would have to buy 6, which would be silly. So anyway, I have a hallway to work with (the husband nixed the idea of me turning his computer room into a tiki room) so now I am planning the tiki entranceway.

I have a book that shows a neat configuration of simple boxes on the wall, like so:

So I am wondering, besides going to all the hassle of making these boxes (which I don't have the workspace to do) where could I get boxes like this already made for cheap? Surely soem sort of company ships their items in wooden boxes of this sort of size, and I could grab them and stain them and screw them into my wall. Any thoughts?
