F.P's Kraft American Cheese Crate Wood Carved Red Heart Mr. Toko with fabulous freckles/whiskersI loved finding this very sweet hand carved heart plaque, and then turning it over to see that it was made from the wood of a Kraft American Cheese crate. It seems as though the wood was quite deliberately chosen, with logo perfectly framed, so I have to think the heart was inspired by a love of processed cheese, or perhaps a token of appreciation for the provider of such! Doesn't get much more American than that. The logo and text on the crate wood
