What can I do with old metal trunks?
1 Answer

You can do a variety of things with old metal trunks. Use one in place of your coffee table in the living room or add a cushion and throw pillows to transform it into a bench. Lift the lid and add supports and cushions to create a one-of-a-kind accent chair, or position it beside your bed as a nightstand. On 1stDibs, shop an assortment of metal trunks.
