I got into my hands here is such an old chest ...
First of all, I soldered the iron edging, which rotted the old age, pulled out the nails, they were ancient, like homemade (probably the chest is very old). In the garage found a canopy from the old bullfiree, drank in the size of the chest.
Restament the tree yet I do not know how, I decided to cover the chest with a cloth.
That's how he looked with a "new" canopy. The fabric fastened the packaging plastic ribbon, which came under hand, stapler for furniture. Shakes, the angles staped with a needle.
Next, of the dense foam, the legs cut out the legs and screwed to the bottom of the chest.
Inside also decided to cover with a cloth with a furniture stapler.
The lid did not wear, only the sides at the cover from the inside - the cloth.
And so that the lid does not break off when the chest is opened, the limiters have made limiters. From the tape here's such a two layer of mophera and on the tapping screw on the lid and inside the chest.
For the handles, it was decided to use wooden rings for curtains (with unnecessary curtains), fastening - a thin tin from the office square ceiling lamp, screwed screws.
Then it started painting. Acrylic paint - natural ocher. It seemed to me that such a color is more suitable for the old chest.
And inside ...
The remaining whole edging painted with black acrylic.
The lid decorated with a decoupage. Cut pictures on rice paper and on PVA, outside and inside ...
Pens on the chest lid, the same as from the sides.
Well, and now, a general view. That's what happened!
There is a place for knitting accessories. Forgot to add, the cover was covered with acrylic varnish on top and from the inside.
