Do you like this?
I do, but Mr Knits does not. Of course, it's from Pinterest.com .
It's a chair made from an old leather suitcase. I just happen to have a really old leather suitcase from the early 1900s, and it's calling me to make it into a chair for our guest cabin (get the humour? Suitcase? Guest cabin?) I even have the fabric to do this. All I need are the chair legs, some plywood and a bit of foam and I'd be sitting pretty in my new chair. And save about $600 making it instead of buying it!
There are more examples on the Pinterest site - just put "suitcase chair" into the search box and be prepared to be amazed. If you have pets, you can make pet beds from old suitcases - search suitcase pet beds for examples.
And, if you don't have a Pinterest account, don't worry. You can still view all the great ideas on the site, you just can't save them to your own pin boards. But, if you have a Facebook or Twitter account, just login using it, and you're ready to Pinterest. (If you need an invitation to join, email me and I will send you one.)
