The Vintage Suitcase

I don’t know how many times I’ve been to thrift stores looking for Vintage Suitcases.  I’ve left them as they were; I’ve painted them numerous colours; I’ve re-purposed them many times, but I don’t think I’ve ever seen any used like this.

Where do I get props?

I’m always asked this question.  Here goes.  Lumber yards of all kinds. Habitat for Humanity stores which are full of amazing things, and super cheap, and I can take them back there when I’m done!  Wholesalers of all kinds.  I travel to trade shows to see what’s new and happening but remember to order right away, because if it’s cool enough to buy, others think so too; Discount stores including ‘dollar stores’; Multicultural areas like Vancouver’s Chinatown and lastly I personally make a lot of things.

Hope that gives you some inspiration and gives you new ideas for your store.
