DeleteThe suitcase wall is especially jaw-dropping.
ReplyDeleteI've had a vintage suitcase in my garage for a decade now, waiting for me to get to it. It took your post to light a fire under me. I just realized I have the perfect curvy wooden legs for it, salvaged from a side table.
Thanks!
Great! Would love to see the end result!
DeleteAwesome! I love the nightstand and medicine cabinet. They have so much character!
ReplyDeleteGlad you enjoyed the post!

DeleteWell I want the suitcase wall as well as a few other of these great ideas... amazing!!!!!
ReplyDeleteThanks for your comments, I hope you are inspired!
ReplyDeleteLOL..I found your blog the other day on the Etsy blog team and was on Pinterest tonight and saw the suitcase dressers which brought me right back here! I guess I love your taste! I bought that issue of Somerset Studios specifically because of the suitcase wall on the cover..too fabulous! I have several vintage suitcases..mine are mostly stacked. They hold my photographs and several hold my art supplies. I esp. like them to hold my old paper/wallpaper/magazines. I actually have a "Glitter suitcase" and one beauty case that holds my bottles of paint.Yay for vintage suitcases!
ReplyDeleteGREAT idea to use them to hold photos & magazines!
ReplyDeleteI used mine as a vanity of sorts. I leave it open on top of my dresser and display all of my pretty perfume bottles.
ReplyDeleteGreat idea!
Deletewow- look at all those ideas - i love the kitchen storage cupboard idea and thanks for including my sewing craft suitcase! (MiraNarnie)

Love your sewing craft suitcase Brenda!
DeleteAmazing. Simply amazing. I am stunned... Thank you for this fantastic pots, I enjoyed it so much. I am in love with the white side table and the suitcase wall. Now I need a suitcase...
ReplyDeleteSo glad you liked the post!
DeleteHow about toilet tissue in the bathroom? If there are pockets, put extra soap or bath salts in for a pretty smell. Stash a few magazines inside so they don't leave a mess in the bathroom. Add a couple of those vintage hankies in the belts for decoration!
ReplyDeleteI have an old trunk that I wanted to redo but I'm thinking differently now. Thanks for all the great ideas!
I have a wicker suitcase that I store my piano music in and I have a plant on top of the closed lid. :)
Great ideas! Glad you enjoyed the post.
