This is not a saltbox. This is a storage box I built for our back porch for the compost bins, birdseed, and other outdoor sundries that’s clearly in the key of saltbox, but double-wide and flat-topped. I really want something more interesting than STORAGE BOX to stencil on it. Open to any ideas – dumb, funny, earnest, etc., so comment away, friends. Thanks in advance for playing!

Saltbox on Chilton St., Coldstream Homestead Montebello (CHM?). Is calling this area CHM a thing IRL, or is the internet being clever? #baltimoresaltbox #saltbox #coldstreamhomesteadmontebello #baltimore

Sandbox at Union Memorial’s ER entrance on N. Calvert St., Charles Village. Before they were our beloved saltboxes, they were sandboxes. Is this Encino Man? The Missing Link? What say you @unionmemorialortho #baltimoresaltbox #charlesvillage #encinoman #sandbox #baltimore

OMG! This is an amazing opportunity to try your hand at making Baltimore Saltbox Art while supporting and celebrating Open Works. Inspired by artist Juliet Ames, the Baltimore Crabtown Project, the Baltimore Beat, and the hardworking folks at Baltimore City Department of Public Works, Open Works is auctioning off 10 artist-designed saltboxes as part of their 10th anniversary celebration on Sept. 26, 2026. Applications due by July 25. Link in Bio for details. @open_works_bmore @baltimorebeat @thebrokenplate_jules @frank_perrelli @bmorecitydot #baltimoresaltbox #saltboxart #saltbox #baltimore
