chipped trunk

 i picked up this black small trunk from a thrift store for £2.50, i knew i could do something with it, and it would be great for storage.
first i got some masking tape and covered the metal locking parts, i liked the rusty look of them,
 then i spray painted the corner pieces as they were plastic, i wasn't sure how well the paint would cover it.
 then i used emulsion to paint the whole trunk. it took a few coats. then once it was dry, i chipped the edges to make it look old and worn. you can use sandpaper to rub down the edges.
