HTM Kit's Dresser Trunk

Kit's Dresser Trunk, was introduced in 2000, modified in 2007, and retired in 2012. ($159)


It was large enough to hold her bed, clothing, shoes and accessories. 

 

I hot glued strips of foam sheet to act as straps then painted the entire thing Heritage Brick.  

 

Then I painted metallic gold on the edges to mimic brass reinforcements.


My version is on a smaller scale and can house shoes, socks, headbands, hair bows, notebooks, reporter kit, newspapers and other small accessories.
 

Lastly I used thumb tacks to act as nail heads on the straps.

    1. Thanks. I only wish it were a bit bigger, however it is nice that it fits under the bed though.
