Suitcase Love


I love vintage suitcases.

I found this great suitcase at my favorite thrift store recently.  The base came from a garage sale for less than a dollar. The label on the front bothers me but I have not decided what to do with it. I am so jealous of the pictures I see on other blogs and on pinterest.  I tried to "stage" this picture but it is still a work in progress.


This creation went to live at its new home this weekend. 

I feel like a party today!

    Well done! I have one in my office like it and I love it. You could get the label off with Goo Gone; that stuff will take off anything.
