Today my family and I went antique mall shopping together. It's our newest Saturday tradition and I pretty much love it the most :)
I walked away with a few treasures but this is the one that I was most excited about:
A $2 vintage suitcase. I had been looking for one since before Christmas but I needed a certain color and a cheap price.
My wonderful mom stumbled upon this and I was soooo happy.
I had envisioned an adorable dog bed for Catalina (it was supposed to be her Christmas gift).
Better late than never right :)
So, I armed myself with vintage lace, vintage fabrics, vintage buttons, yarn, wood grain contact paper, and a hot glue gun.
All of those items turned my cheap vintage suitcase into the cuuuuuutest dog bed ever!!
This is was I ended up with it:
and since Picasso spent the night last night, he climbed in and tried it out for Catalina:
I love it.
Isn't it great to take something and turn it into something else completely?
I'm feeling super inspired to create more now!!
