I had a useless box in my room and thought about renovating it to something more antique.

Step 1: Cleaning

At first, when I bought the box it was a simple wooden box. I painted it just for fun. for the renovation I wanted something more simple and clean. It was acrylic paint so it was easy to be cleaned. I used Clorox and acetone to clean the box. But I end up putting leather on the top of the box.

Step 2: Gathering the Tools
