However, I wanted a piece of furniture that looks medieval. I bought a roll of contact paper and some silver metallic spray paint. I started off by spraying three silver bands on the chest to give it the appearance of metal bands.
Then I added contact paper to give it the appearance of being made out of wood. I found that the paper doesn't like to stay down so I sprayed super 33 on it to reinforce the sticky back of the contact paper. The whole thing only took me about an hour to decorate. Here is the finished product. I figure that just about anything could be decorated in this manner. I plan to do a cooler next. Enjoy.
