Navy Upholstered Trunk Makeover

I was lucky enough to have a co-worker of mine spot a nasty looking trunk on the curb in front of her apartment and think of me! When she saw it she thought I would enjoy giving it a nice makeover and she was right! 
The fabric on the outside was pretty nasty and the handles on the front and sides were completely destroyed but the inside was in great shape and it had good bones so all it really needed was some new fabric to bring it back to life! 

I bought some navy velvet fabric from JoAnn’s and while I was there I saw some nailhead trim and thought that would add some flare to the trunk. I decided to ditch the idea of handles completely and the front latches had to go too. While I liked the look they weren’t in the best shape and it wasn’t really necessary to keep them either.

The end result is so much better than before and turned out better than I hoped! I’m so glad my co-worker thought of me when she saw this!
