I fell in love with these and will make a version for my own personal use. However, if you'd like to buy one, please check Vintage Renaissance's Etsy Shop (we love supporting Etsy sellers as we are one...:)) I think it is a wonderful gift for the pet lover who has everything and it is a great use of an old item which is always good for the environment. And this brings us to a subject which is dear to me. Why must we buy everything new? The quality of old suitcases is incomparable. There is strength of build, quality materials that we no longer need to acquire and can still have a long life. This is typical of items that can be made creatively, safely without toxic paints and finishes, and can bring great joy to a loving pet and therefore great joy to your household.

And what about recycling something current and interesting into unique furniture? Try skateboards. Try J. Ryde Visuals
Interesting recycled, functional art pieces. Think outside the box, stop living in the box, make a new box out of an old one, get back to basics and live a cleaner life.
