Junk Trunk to Coffee Table....Easy!
Good Morning! I am happy to share my DIY coffee table project. I hope you like it! I have a beautiful glass-topped and metal base coffee table that I somehow manage to bang my shin into every.single.day. No joke. My left leg looks like I was in ten rounds with a dragon. I decided to buy a new coffee table, preferably one with storage for my driftwood hoarding problem. The only thing stopping me was that I'm always "funds-impaired." I saw a pretty rough footlocker/trunk for sale on Facebook's "Marketplace." Luckily it was still available for the bargain price of $5.00. SCORE!! I brought it home. The black fabric covering it was torn in places and it was missing a portion of the locking latch. Big deal. If your friends comes over and notices a missing portion of the locking latch on your footlocker/trunk coffee table, they aren't your friends! Here is the footlocker before: I can see in my head what it's...
