Love it! Just looking for ideas for something to make for grand daughters room for Christmas. Love all of you beautiful ideas and think you did a fab job! Saw a few old cases at local thrift shop, better go nab one. I am going to paint outside.......Pink?! And purchase legs from local hardware store and make it into a vanity table. I have a seat already that would easily be recovered. What does everyone think?, any better ideas. Again, Lovely, and hope ya don't mind me stealing a lot of your ideas.
Wow! Looks beautiful inside. Perhaps try to remove all hardware and spray paint the outside of the luggage with rust-oleum painters touch 2x ultra cover paint + primer in satin heirloom white. You can find it at Home Depot or Loews. Good luck! Can't wait to see what you come up with. TFS! Maddy
I liked your ideas! I am looking for inspiration for my newly acquired vintage suitcases! I have only painted them so far! I wanted to send you a pic of mine but I can't figure out what to upload a pic!
So cute!! Love all the laces you used! I'm a lace junkie!! I had already purchased an old Samsonite travel case a couple of years ago and ripped the insides out to redo but haven't gotten there yet but guess what?? it's the same blue as your luggage!! LOL. that's funny! TFS!! :)
Hi, I think your case looks great so far! I actually did a process video of redoing one of my traincases. I took out the insides and put in new fabric and new chipboard backing to guarantee the smell was gone forever. I also decoupaged the whole outside of the case with map fabric. I ended up giving it to a friend who really loved it and used it for a travel art case. I would love for you to check out the videos. I had to do the whole thing in 4 segments because it was a lengthy job. Anyways, thank you for sharing your beautiful case with us. Brenda Moffett
This is so beautiful! You just gave me such a great idea to make one for my eldest daughter to use as a makeup station, I might even put legs on it! Thank you for sharing your work, it is perfect.
I appreciate the time and effort to show your process! Turned out just beautiful! LOVE the shabby chic look of it! TFS the tip about the glue sticks. ~Jeanne
