Thanks for the site! I especially liked the shelves made from the partial cases. The "custom gift" case mixing the bottle of boo.ze with the hatc.het and switch blade kind of has me concerned though ;-)

Just came down from the attic where I was putting something in one of my three stacks of vintage suitcases. Once you focus on acquiring these it is simple to build your collection.

I esp like the complete wall of suitcases! What wonderful storage!

There are so many great ideas that the price for vintage suitcases has risen precipitously. Fun to look at, though, so thanks for sharing, Froo Froo.

I loved the kitty beds - those were so cute! So many great ideas for the suitcases; I never see the old suitcases in my city though. Thanks for posting these links Froo, I enjoy going through them!

Glad you're enjoying the repurposed suitcases.
