My daughter was so excited to have a new toy box, and I was so excited to have something that fits all those toys. I sanded, wood filled and sanded again. It is not perfect, but somehow I think all the imperfections make it look a little vintage or something to that sort. After I sanded I put two coats of primer on and then painted another two coats of an aqua color. I was going to leave it but thought it was a little too bright. So I took some white paint and put a tiny bit on the brush and I guess slightly white washed it. I do like how it toned down the aqua and shows some of cracks and dings on the trunk. Now for the big reveal......
I hope you like it. I think I like it because it stores all the junk I mean toys. Makes picking up a little easier when everything has a place. Have a great weekend!
Until next time...Kim
