apartment therapy changing the world, one room at a time

Am I the only one? No visuals came up on this site for this post.

Nope. Nothing I can see either.

sorry - funky html! the image should now be visible

But there's no room on the top for anything except a very small glass. And it's a pain to have to take everything down to get at whatever is stored in the bottom suitcase. I think this trend is tired.

I do this in the house all the time. You can often find great suitcases at estate sales and garage sales. Inexpensive and a different way to create tables.

I use them for storage in my front closet because I can remember what is in them better if I think "ok---Christmas ornaments are in the 60's red suitcase with the bumper sticker on it" - much easier than boxes, that's for sure!

I love the look.

Anyone have any idea what color that room is?

I wish there was a company (other than Louis Voitton) that still made this style suitcase; I would love one in carrynon size (22x14x9) that wasn't as fragile as an antique.

I agree, the trend is tired. But I LOVE the painted floor.
