Going Places

Well, I have a new addiction...Vintage Luggage!

I have about 5 pieces that I have or will be re-purposing. The one below is a white American Tourister from the 60's or 70's. I cleaned it up real good with bleach, and applied a light spray of paint to freshen it up. I ripped out the inner stained lining, and grabbed some funky fabric to re-line the inside. I then cut out circles of the fabric and applied them to the outside to tie the whole look together. Would be a perfect suitcase for a weekend trip or to store items in for a decorative look. More luggage to come!
