Transforming An Old Metal Trunk

An old metal trunk can be very handy. They serve a duel purpose, being  both decorative and  wonderful for added storage . In bedrooms ,family rooms or hallways you can always find a use for them.

For this trunk I started with ASCP in Old White, then started adding a cute graphic...


I love working with paint pens.you can find them in water base or oil...I use both.

 now it's time to sand..i use a 220 sandpaper
after sanding it's time to age the piece..i use a clear wax to set the piece first, then to age it i use dark wax, dust of ages and gilders paste in black..

The end result is a lovely trunk ready to grace any room in your home...
