I have enjoyed the past week rearranging my living room and dining room and adding a few warmer touches for fall. I had purchased this great old Army trunk a while back. I ended up adding it to my living room the other day along with a little wooden box that had been my grandmothers.
In the dining room, I brought out my mustard colored curtains for fall. They look very warm against the wood and also go nicely with my burgundy buffet. I bought them years ago at JC Penny and still love them.
I still need to paint the rest of my dining room chairs white…it never ends 🙂

Hey Susan, your trunk is in great shape! I have one from 1947 it’s construction consists of a cardboard layering painted green over a wood base. only reason I know this is mine got wet somewhere along the line and the cardboard on the lid top got all mildewed and is peeling off now. And of course now all the Lettering is lost. I was wondering if you could do me a huge favor and send me a pic of your top in detail? I really want to restore mine with faux paint technique. And redo the lettering, Promise to link back the finished project, or share at the party! Wink wink….
