My SIL found an old antique trunk in great shape at a dump. She took it home, painted it and uses it for an end table in her family room. It's way cute. Our dump, I mean landfill, has an area where you can put items that are still good but you don't want them anymore and then other people can take your trash, I mean treasure, and give them a good home. It's kinda cool... Mimi PS Your tree turned out great.
