An extremely easy way is to remove the front and top of the box. Then you can screw it to the wall. Sand any edges that someone might touch. You could paint or stain the box, then distress, or leave the box in its older state except for the sanding. ☺️

I am not sure about making a shelf out of the wooden tool box but I think it would be cute to hang a shelf and then add the tool box to the top of the shelf.
Clever idea! You can attach the box directly to the wall which would be cool. Take the drawers out, put a couple screws through the back into the wall, and put the drawers back.
Your biggest challenge will be to attach it to the wall. I would open the box and attach it by the lid to the wall. You can use the top as a magnetic display and fill the toolbox with towels or supplies in the bathroom.
