Yo Ho Ho and a Bottle of Rum

Back when I was living in Germany I used my fathers army chest as my couch table and loved all the extra storage.

I was hoping to find something just like it for the house.

When I saw this on Craigslist two years ago I thought it would be perfect.

But as you see, it's taller than the couch. Won't work.

On this latest trip we discovered an Antique Mall.

Oh My Goodness! What wonderful stuff!

While there hubby discovered this beauty

It's a ceder chest with a tray and a storage compartment. A great place to store our games and other things we might need in the front room.

Naturally I had to put my own stamp on it and decided to cover the tray with the same pleather to match the side tables I covered last Summer.

Also perfect for playing Yatzee!

Aloha A Hui Hou!
