  Step 1

  My dad made the legs and base and my mom painted and redid the inside of the suitcase. My parents are pretty crafty folks. :)

  Step 2

  To redo the inside, my mom used upholstery fabric, cut it to size, and then used some hot glue. All of the suitcases I bought for myself have the original (sometimes iffy) lining inside them. The ones from my mom are all pretty and nice-smelling. :)

Do you think this would be sturdy enough for a sewing machine? This would be perfect for my sewing room but just wanted to know how sturdy it is Thanks

This seems to be getting to be a style to use these suitcases for different kinds of furniture. It's very interesting to see

have you been using the suitcase to store stuff in or do you just use it as a table
