A client had this very cute toy chest dropped off with the instructions to "Do whatever you want with it" For me that is a scary order. However, after seeing a couple of photos of the rooms where this chest could become a coffee table, I knew exactly what I wanted to do. I Have been wanting to try my hand at a union jack graphic and this piece was PERFECT.
Each panel of the toy chest had a nursery rhyme scene and it was VERY CUTE! but it's time was up. The chest needed bit of prep to remove the textured sheep fleece and clouds. A magic marker had been used to so a good primer was needed to avoid bleeding.
