Vintage Suitcases....

I have two vintage leather suitcases....I want to USE them for something other than sitting on the shelf in the storage room. I'm looking for any and all ideas....I am thinking of finding metal stands and making them storage tables? Help me out creative friends!

ooo I would totally do a silk floral arrangment in them or put legs on them and make them a side decritve table in a room.

The round one would look lovely in your halfbath....on legs, you could do it in a corner, with an lovely flower arrangement in the bottom and reading materials in the elastic top part.

The other one could be used as a throw (blanket) storage area in your family room.

Donna...those are gorgeous and yes, in such great condition! I like the idea of using them to hold everyday items. They would be pretty propped up in stands or just stacked on top of each other. The round one is my favorite, so I'd make that one prominent on top! If you had more to add to them, you could make a tall stack that would also work as a side table. Oh, the possibilites are endless. I love beautiful old pieces like that...such character! Good luck and let us know what you decide to do with them, ok?
