As we continue Getaway month at Apartment Therapy, we’ve been checking out some great luggage finds - especially lingering over vintage pieces and steamer trunks. With the wonderful condition thees pieces can be found in these days, why not consider luggage as furniture?
Using Luggage For Home Design
Most pieces of luggage can be turned into a home accent. There are such great fabrics and designs, showcasing luggage as part of you home decor (instead of hiding it just in a closet) is a stylish and functional idea. With a creative mind and a bit of DIY, you can create a side table, coffee table, entrance table, you name it!
This Louis Vuitton steamer trunk works perfectly as a coffee table plus it creates a great focal point in the room. (via HGTV)
Another stylish coffee table - a vintage trunk with a Goyard-like print incased in a clear Lucite box with added wheels. (via Jordan Cappella)
Use your stylish soft luggage as a side table by taking wooden boards and a tray to create a structure for the pieces. (via House Beautiful)
If you love the luggage idea but don’t have pieces that you’d prefer to showcase, check out Woodarti’s faux luggage pieces to create this look.
