Upcycle, Recycle and Repurpose a Vintage Suitcase.

I have such a love and passion for old vintage suitcases. I have quite the collection now. Some from my childhood and some new "old" purchases. You can see some of my old suitcases in my Happy Little Bluebirds market stall. I pack and carry all my market gear in the suitcases and I can then use them as a display prop.

I love the history behind any old object but an old suitcases make me ponder..."Where have you been?" Where you used for Vacations? Summer camps? Ski trips? Business trips? School? I bet there would be a few tales to tell.

I recently got my hands on a vintage suitcase and it was covered in old travel stickers. Such a great find!

If you have a passion for old suitcases like me...I have collected a few ideas of how you can use, display and repurpose an old suitcase in your home.
