JIMT Idea: Suitcases
Walking through Sparks Antique Show last weekend I must have passed up a dozen or more vintage suitcases. Old suitcases have such strong personalities ~ think about the journeys that baggage has taken with previous owners, their bright 1970′s colors, and funky locks, stickers & tags. Silly me, I usually pass on the luggage, though ~ simply because I’m not sure what to do with it. Never again!! Check out these BIG ideas for your old BAGGAGE…

Ummmm, hello brilliant!!!
The idea for using vintage suitcases for tables isn’t new, but it’s fun to see all of the options of HOW to use suitcases for tables {below}. Stack ‘em, paint ‘em & top ‘em with a clever tray. I repeat, I will never again pass up a cool old suitcase!!!
