It’s time for another repurposing post … and this time I have 12 fabulous ways to repurpose old suitcases!

Clever Ways to Upcycle Old Suitcases

How amazing is this suitcase hotel?  The details are so quaint.  I wonder if I could do this with an old suitcase and some dollhouse supplies from the craft store?

If a hotel isn’t your thing, how about a dollhouse made from a suitcase?  I love the chalkboard exterior on this house … the kids could change it every day.

This suitcase welcome sign is so sweet.  Can’t you just imagine it on the steps of a cottage or outside the door of a Bed ‘n’ Breakfast?

I don’t think my husband would love this idea but I think this medicine cabinet made from a suitcase is brilliant.  A fun, vintage touch for a bathroom.

A suitcase bar is a clever way to repurpose an old suitcase.  Stack it on top of a buffet or hang it on a wall for unique decor with a practical purpose.

You could also make a chair from an old suitcase.  I’ve seen a lot of versions of this but I love this one made from a round case.

A cat or a dog bed is a great use for old luggage … add some legs and a pillow and your sweet pet will have the perfect place to sleep.

I really like the idea of a suitcase shelf {and these ones look like they’re attached to an old door which makes them even better, right?}.

A vintage suitcase is a sweet spot for notes at a baby shower …

… or a clever bedside table.

And this idea is so fun!  Add some speakers to an old suitcase and turn it into a classy way to share music.

One final idea that will appeal to the imagination: a sweet fairy garden planted in a suitcase.

Aren’t those fun ideas?  For more great repurposing ideas, check out my other posts below.
