ReplyDeleteWow, I am in awe of how many great ideas there are here! I especially love the kitty bed and the dresser drawers.

The 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!
Awesome! I love the nightstand and medicine cabinet. They have so much character!
ReplyDeleteOH MY GOSH - these rock! I so want that little blue one for sure! Off to check that out closer!

That suitcase to medicine cabinet is so clever. I also love the idea of them as drawers!

Well 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.
ReplyDeletewow- look at all those ideas - i love the kitchen storage cupboard idea and thanks for including my sewing craft suitcase! (MiraNarnie)
