One thing about Tre Amici is that we love a good challenge. We all get so excited to explore our creativity on all levels, and our latest project is no exception.
Given our inherent love for gently used, vintage treasures, we could not resist two very unique steamer trunks. When we saw them advertised on Craigslist, all three amici quickly jumped in their company van (a.k.a. Lorrie's "Big White") and started on our road trip. This time, Tre Amici dragged the tre kiddos along for the ride. Needless to say, the trip was incredibly loud and full of potty breaks.
Upon safely reaching our destination (despite Lorrie's turret's-like musical outbursts) we were greeted by a very kind older gentleman who gave us a screamin' deal on the two trunks. Naturally, we swooped them up into our "company vehicle" and went straight to work.
They were in pretty good shape to begin with. We gave one a good cleanup, sanded down the surface and primed it.
We have big plans for this piece. We're going to take our eyes for creativity and our (very steady) hands for painting to create a masterpiece beyond your wildest imagination.
Stay tuned for more photos along the way!
