Tutorial to Make this DIY Cable Storage Box

  1. Remove the front metal latch from box with the screwdriver. Fill the holes from the latch with wood  filler. Let dry then sand smooth with 220 grit sandpaper.
  2. Using the foam brush paint on 1 or 2 coats of Overcast paint. I used one coat of paint to let the wood grain peek through. Let dry between coats.
  3. Attach stencil to top of box using painters tape to secure.
  4. Using 1 inch flat artist brush, pounce on the Cottonball paint color onto the stencil.
  5. Remove stencil and let paint dry.
  6. Using 220 grit sandpaper, sand the stencil pattern for a faded distressed look.
