My restored trunk

Here are the pictures I promised of my 1st attempt at restoring anything.  I bought this trunk at a garage sale for $10.00 having no idea what to do with it.  After doing a lot of online research, I decided that I wanted to refinish it using crackle.  I went and bought all my supplies and then took my time on each step.  I am so happy with how it turned out.  After finishing it, I realized that it is the perfect size for storing all my completed 12 x 12 scrapbooking albums.
