Painting My Steamer Trunk Coffee Table

Remember the steamer trunk I started using in the living room for a coffee table?





Well it got a little face lift, a.k.a., paint job.  You can't really tell in the picture above but the trunk has a distressed look to it from all its years of use.  Which I like.  I added a coat of paint but kept the distressed look.


You can't tell the color very well in the picture above, so here is a close up of the color.



It's called "New Spruce", by Valspar



I also rearranged the sectional pieces, took out the bamboo area rug, added more color with throw pillows, and



I brought in a large painting that tied all the colors together.


Easy update for spring color, just reworking what I already had.

  13. I would love to install hardwood floors throughout my entire house, and then get a bamboo area rug to put in the center under the coffee table.

  14. Could you tell me what paint you used here - the blue green? Was it a chalk paint, or a milk paint? Thanks!

  15. Excellent post on the invaluable role of CHEMEXIL for Indian exporters. You've highlighted how crucial this council is for gaining credibility and accessing vital market intelligence. It's a key partner for any business in the chemical, pharmaceutical, and cosmetics sectors looking to expand its global footprint. Navigating international regulations can be complex, and having a body like CHEMEXIL to guide the process is essential. It's a great example of how having an Agile Regulatory mindset is crucial for global trade
