A couple weeks ago, I made yet another journey to the thrift store to see what bargains I could find. I was determined to find a vintage suitcase that guests could put their cards in. I'm a tad bit over everyone having a birdcage for cards...so I knew it was the perfect plan. Unfortunately, there are NO cheap vintage suitcases in good condition. So, I found this suitcase at a local thrift store for a WHOPPING $2!!
I decided that I could paint it the desired color instead of busting my butt trying to find the perfect suitcase.
Of course, by the picture, you can see that mint green is the preferred color.
The inside is a light butter yellow that will coordinate nicely with the green! :)
I taped up the vintage metal strip on top of the suitcase with some tape and went at it.

Hooray!
