Chest freezers take up space and are not always the most appealing if you need to keep them in the house. Well, we came up with an idea to help out! It&#8217;s a lift-up cover that can be painted to look however you want. (It can also double as a cover for keeping inventory on the actual lid of your freezer! We have another post on that idea linked below.) It does require a piece of masonite and some small wood trim that will need to be cut with some type of saw. Check out the details below!
