Suitcase Make-Over Revisited

Happy Friday! Today i'm joining Miss Mustard Seed Creations for her "Furniture Feature Friday"

I thought i would re-visit this suitcase that i turned into a table. This was probably one of my favorite projects and one of the easiest too!

I started with this big, boxy suitcase (if you're familiar with my suitcase obsession, you'll realize i had a few in my stash!)


Then painted the surface with Sherwin Williams 'Muslin' leaving the studded outside trim the color it was

I bought four unfinished legs, painted them and attached them at the corners with leg-hardware-attaching-thingies (gaww..i have no idea what their called!)





Ta Da! A loverly little table. I thought it would live in our bedroom, but it soon became a place for Sweet Man to pile his dirty clothes...uh, yeah-that wasn't working for me


So i tried it in the living room behind the love seat, and i love it there!


The perfect place for all my junkies ♡

I'll have to tell you about the train cases under the table later!

Thanks for stopping by! Hope you have a relaxing and creative weekend!

  2. Hi! Found you off Miss Mustardseed. Love your blog...and the music immediately set me and my 3 kids to dancing. A slight interruption to our home-schooling, but great exercise and brain relief! :)
