Good morning, LCI readers! I hope you’re all having a great weekend. Today I’m sharing you a quick makeover I did on a wooden trinket box. I picked this up at a yard sale last fall not really knowing what I would do with it, but I knew a makeover could turn it into something stylish.
I decided to update it similar to my Organizer Makeover, which was my most popular DIY project of 2013. I painted it black and luckily I had just enough scrapbook paper leftover from the other makeover.
I didn’t want it solid black, so I added some decoupage. I cut the paper and used Mod Podge to glue the pieces on the top and sides.
It’s so stylish now for a chic Frenchy bedroom or even in a foyer. I also think it looks good on my recent French Typography Table Makeover. 😉
It was really so simple and only took an hour or two (with drying time).
Do you have any similar trinket boxes begging for a makeover?

Amazing transformation Jen. Doesn’t it make you feel good when you can take something that is no longer attractive and totally make it over in to a very stylish piece. Look forward to seeing what you make next 🙂

Thank you Kerryanne! I usually love to make over furniture but there’s also something satisfying in taking small pieces like this that are often discarded and giving them a brand new look. And it was such a quick update!
