Love love love these old suitcases. I have over a dozen in differing shapes and sizes and all are used to store my linen and fabric stash! Lots of great ways to use them as decor! I have a pic in my folder of imags of one that looks totally gorgoeous as a side table.A nice old hard case had interesting legs atatched. I want to do this for bedside tables if I am lucky enough to find two that are similar and 'suitable'. Great post!!! Thankyou :) Irene x
Lovely, When I see these images I can`t stop thinking that I should check my grandmothers attic and see if there is still one like these. I love the idea.

So many great suitcases. I use a couple to store photos that have been waiting 'forever' to be put in albums.

I love to decorate with suitcases. I really like the ones painted white. Going to have to find some I don't feel bad about painting.
Very unique. Never though about decorating with suitcases. Love the first photo where they are used as a night table.
I think I love every single one of them!
Wow! So much inspiration! (Looks like everyone listened to Formex - Vintagetravel theme...) ;)
So glad to have found your blog--really beautiful, and thoughtfully inspiring stuff. Thank you!
AH! I'm in love! Must find a good second hand store here where I can rummage for this kinda stuff...
