I've been working on this little cutie for a little bit now. And just finished her the other day. I hot glued vintage white and ivory buttons to the outside of the suitcase. Then I used a white tassel trim.
I love how the white buttons look on the grey background.
Good thing I still have LOTS of buttons left over to use fr future projects!
For the top I painted it white then mod podged ivory floral scrapbook paper over it. I then used old French book paper and used vintage inspired bird illustrations.
I used it in a craft show I was in on Saturday as part as a display piece. A lot of people commented on it, liking it a lot! :)
I am going to finish the inside off and I'll share the final product with you with hopefully better pictures of it!!
