Transformation of an old wooden box to a storage box

Transformation of an old wooden box to a storage box

I transformed this more than 30 years old wooden box into a storage box my kids. Kept the colors bright and lively and at the same time kept the box simple.

I used:

  • Diamond paints Super Emulsion in shades
  • Royal Blue
  • Lemon

Tools that I used:

  • Narrow straight brush for corners
  • Flat brush for applying primer and varnish
  • Roller brush for painting main areas

Steps I followed:

  • Sand down the whole box
  • Fill in holes using wall putty
  • Sand own again
  • Prime the box using gesso
  • Paint two coats of blue paint
  • Paint two coats of yellow paint
  • Apply varnish
  • Screw in tyres, hinges and handle
