Two Dollar Trunk Transformed

Here is the $2 trunk I got last week with a few coats of paint to tone down the bright blue that it was, and my swirls that I love.

I also painted up this little table that was a bright blue to start with, and this shutter that will hang on the wall for photos and letters.

    That was a bargain! It turned out so beautiful! Just think of the things that you can store in there! The table and door are nice too. I love the colors that you chose.
    Thanks for the sweet comments earlier. They really meant a lot to me.

    Holy crap you must be a domestic goddess. Look at all these cool projects you have! You've totally inspired me, I have this little shelf that is lookin pretty shabby right now, I think a coat of paint is just what it needs!

    Oh my. How I do love what you did with the trunk. I'd love to put that beauty in my living room as the coffee table. You do the best swirls I have ever seen.
