The flea markets can be the perfect place to find wonderful treasures. I especially like going right before they close because some vendors are just trying to unload their stuff and they sell it for really cheap! I got this metal tool box for $5 plus it was filled with screws all shapes and sizes. I wanted this tool chest to keep all my trinket in. 
Here are the material I used
1. Krylon rust protector spray paint
2.Krylon puple spray paint
3.Krylon chalkboard spray paint
Of course once I got the metal tool chest home, I found out that it had rust on top of it. I needed to take care of it right away because I don't want the spray paint to flake with time. So I took a steel wool sponge and rubbed as much of the rust off as I could before applying the Krylon rust protector. 

Once that is done its time to spray paint my tool box purple my favorite color. 


At first I wanted to keep the clear plastic drawers but they looked a little funky to me and I knew that I needed to label the drawers. The best way to do it is to use chalkboard spray paint!


I ran to Micheal's and I got my hands on so black Krylon chalkboard paint.


Once all the drawers dried, I coated the drawer with a light rub of chalk. 
Then you are all finished!


Now I have a tool box where I can but all my trinkets for my tags. It was a super easy makeover.

Stay Crafty!
