Anatomy of a classic sea chest
When coloring a classic sea chest, you can use different shades of brown to highlight the wood grain and heavy planks. The sturdy metal fittings, including the hinges, hasps, and the large padlock, were traditionally made of iron or brass. Adding a metallic sheen with silver, bronze, or gold crayons makes these structural details stand out. Many of our classic trunks feature domed lids, a design that historically helped shed water on long sea voyages.
Ideas for the empty chest templates
The empty chest templates offer a great drawing prompt for classroom activities. After coloring the wooden exterior and the heavy iron bands, kids can draw what they consider valuable inside.
- Traditional gold doubloons, royal crowns, and shiny goblets.
- A secret island map with an X marking the spot.
- Seashells, starfish, and a giant pearl found on the ocean floor.
- Modern personal treasures like their favorite toys, pets, or books.
Coloring the hidden loot
The overflowing chests give colorists a chance to use their brightest gel pens and markers. Coins look best in varied shades of yellow and gold, while the scattered gemstones can be colored in vibrant ruby red, emerald green, and sapphire blue. If the chest is sitting on a sandy beach or resting underwater, you can blend tan and light blue backgrounds to complete the environment before adding the pirate crew or marine life.
