Old Blue Metal Trunk Makeover

Recaptured Charm
by Recaptured Charm
A client came to me with an old blue metal trunk. She was moving into a very small apartment and was looking for a place to store off-season clothing. I used a spray paint in a hammered finish on the outside and on the inside, large world map paper. She loved it, and I hated giving it up.
