Vintage Suitcase
Before
I left the sides as is. I am not good with measurements, etc. Maybe if I get real ambitious this summer I can do a cute floral or old vintage material on the sides. |
Burlap
I bought a large moving box of burlap at a garage sale once. $2 for the huge box. |
I simply pulled out the old liner and used it as a template. It was so simple. I am not patient, so I am glad this was easy. Did I mention I love my love gun?? |
Wow, great blog! Love your Eiffel Tower photo. I love old vintage suitcases too, have my granddad's in the attic. Maybe I should pull it out and try to do something with it. I love what you did here with the burlap. Great display vignette, easy to follow tutorial. Thanks for sharing.
ReplyDeleteHope you enjoy your trip to Paris.

I noticed your Eiffel Tower right away, too! Reminded me of mine. Only mine is a fake LOL It's my second favorite, The Paris Hotel in Vegas :) Thanks for stopping by my blog. Hopefully I can do a really cute display with my suitcase in October.
ReplyDeleteGet your Granddad's suitcase down! It would look great anywhere, even tucked under a table, or stacked with other goodies.
We'll see about France. France = in-laws now. Not quite the same. ;)
I love the transformation. Sometimes our first insticts prove to be the best remedy. It's perfect for displaying your wares. I just found your blog and am following now. Patty
