Toy Box Project

I have been wanting to "update" this little toy box for some time now. It came from my grandma's house, and it was the perfect size for a little toy box to fit in Brody's room. The only problem was, it didn't match the rest of his furniture. We went to Lowe's last weekend to pick up a few things for another project, and I bought some paint. Brody's furniture in his room is a dark brown, Expresso, to be exact.

Here's the BEFORE:


And the AFTER:

These letters were some I painted before Brody was born. I had planned to put them on his wall, but they ended up being too small. I decided to add them to his toy box. I LOVE the way it turned out!


Not a great picture below, but I added a little detail to the buttons on the side.

I was so glad to be done with that thing! It was not as easy as I had expected, but I like it so much more now! Hopefully, Brody will appreciate it one day!
