Trunk Makeover

I dropped this off at my booth yesterday.  
I wanted to share because I just love the worn, whitewashed look.

Class and Trash $48

It started out like this...

I mixed a little white paint with water.  About 2 parts paint one part water.  I used the cheapo brushes from Home Depot and just lightly brushed it on.




I have a very similar one I use as a coffee table/toy storage in our family room.


And it really reminds me of Kate's trunk shown here...


I hope everyone has a FANTASTIC and VERY HAPPY Thanksgiving!
See y'all next week!

PS 
The "Daily Steal" over at Charles Emerson Designs is The Chevron!  
On sale for $12 instead of $15!
Available in 3 colors!

  6. Nice idea to tun a old wooden box in to a tea table and it's slightly looks so antique after renovation.
