My kids are big into their treasures! About 6 years ago my Dad and I made this together - one of my first "real" projects. Since the box has special meaning I decided to make this big wood box a rolling treasure chest for my son. I already had a box, but you can make your own or buy one in a craft store...or go treasure hunting at the thrift stores and apply these same ideas. This DIY is about dressing up and repurposing.
