Why I Built this Wood Trunk
I have been storing our gift wrapping supplies in the guest room - it just makes sense to be able to wrap presents in the guest room with the door closed. So I wanted to create a storage solution that guests would not use, but was still easily accessible.
An end of bed chest was the answer. Guests can use the bench top for setting suitcases and bags, or even seating, but all the storage inside would still be super easy to get to.

Other Uses for This Wood Trunk
While I use my wood trunk as a gift wrapping station in my guest room, there's lot more uses throughout the home!
- Entryway bench with gear and shoe storage inside
- End of bed bench for queen or king sized beds
- Living room bench
- Dining room bench banquette seating
- Kids room as toybox
The Inspiration Behind this Wood Trunk
The wood trunk is inspired by Pottery Barn Parkview Wood Trunk. Costing $1200, and not shipping to my home, this wood trunk was out of reach for me. So I decided to build my own using locally sourced wood, right in my own garage.
