1. Storage chests also make distinctive and unique furniture pieces. A cedar chest suffices perfectly for a coffee or end table. Chests are attention-grabbing items, yet they're neither showy nor ostentatious, making them the favorites of tasteful and elegant decorators.
2. If walking has become a hazard in your child's room due to his or her ever-expanding toy collection, consider a toy chest. Ideal for storing toys, games, and books, toy chests also provide means to create a play space, a fun display, or extra seating. For peace of mind, many toy chests have safety hinges to protect little fingers from getting pinched.
3. Chest sets are a creative way to add functional and versatile storage space to a living room. Storage ottomans can double as footrests or even small tables with in-cover serving trays, while bamboo or rattan wicker decorative storage chests could make for exotic yet practical cocktail or hors d'oeuvres tables.
4. Not all storage chests are traditional in style. Our selection of modern storage chests includes some gorgeous microsuede and faux leather designs, as well as contemporary wood storage chests in maple, dark cherry, and ash.
5. Have a lot of items to store? Browse our selection of medium and large storage chests. Blanket chests tend to be on the larger side and can accommodate much more than just quilts and covers. Try one in your bedroom or a room next to your laundry area.
6. Storage benches are ideal for hard-to-decorate spots such as entryways, where they can provide a useful seat for guests who are donning or doffing footwear. They're also well-suited to hallways, creating extra storage space in a transitional spot or at the end of a hall.
7. The versatility and beauty of a cedar chest are not confined to the inside of the home, either. Outdoor storage chests provide an attractive and safe storage option for gardening tools and supplies, cushions or blankets awaiting better weather, or your precious stockpile of citronella candles.
8. Outdoor storage chests made of cedar are naturally weather-resistant and insect-repellant, so you can rest assured that your supplies are protected from the elements. We have cedar chests finished with a protective coat and untreated, so you can choose if your chest stays fresh-cut golden yellow or ages to that beautiful, earthy gray.
