Description

Don't pass up another thrift store suitcase. I grabbed mine for $1 at the Good Will and turned it into something fantastic!

Instructions

1. 

   This was the suitcase I found. It was ugly, but I knew it had potential.

2. 

   I wiped off all the dust and spray painted it. Add as many coats as you want, but make sure to let the paint dry in between.

3. 

   I used Mod Podge and decoupage paper to decorate the straps.

4. 

   Add another layer of Mod Podge over the decoupage paper and let dry.

5. 

   While the Mod Podge was drying, I used felt and random supplies to make my own "stickers" for the suitcase.

6. 

   When my stickers were done, I used my hot glue gun to attach them to the suitcase.

7. 

   I love this thing... What do you guys think?
