Suitcase Table #2.

I've had this vintage suitcase and table legs lying around for at least the last year! After I moved, the suitcase was stored high above my closet but my recent closet makeover project has forced me into action! So I pulled it down and got to work! This is such an easy project and I just love how it turned out!! Thankfully, I had a spot in mind for this little guy - right between my two vintage cane chairs.

  This is the second suitcase table I've made and this one was just as easy as the first! I started with a suitcase, table legs, and some mounting plates! The suitcase was salvaged from my grandparent's garage, the legs came from Habitat for Humanity Re-Store (for $1 each!) and the plates I bought from Lowe's for about $1.50 each.  They are also available on Amazon if you don't want to trek through a home improvement store!

It's really an incredibly easy project! Some tutorials say to place a piece of particle board inside the suitcase for the screws to drill into...but I skipped that step and just drilled directly into the suitcase and it's just fine :-)

I love it!!

I also love the total cost of the project - only ten bucks!! 

And if you're interested, you're looking at my next two projects! I adore these two cane chairs that were gifted to me and I think I'm finally ready to paint and reupholster them! A rainy weekend forecast just might help me finally get this project marked off my list!

Until next time...
