Luggage End Table DIY

End table for a travel-themed nursery, but this project is so versatile.
I bought a 3 piece hard luggage set from a local Facebook resale site for $20.00 and a small end table from Wal-Mart for $12.97.
After thoroughly cleaning the luggage I placed Blue Tape on the metal parts that I wanted to protect.
I picked up these 3 spray paints from Wal-Mart for under $10.00 (rust-oleum satin coverage). There are SO many colors you can use for this project. I went with colors to match the nursery theme.
Let the painting begin!
I really wanted to do some easy lighting for the underside to I used thumb tacks to place leftover Christmas lights on the underside of the end table.
I got a little creative and made this design out of 2 paper doilies. The possibilities are endless here. I stuck this on with Elmer's glue just in case I wanted to change it up in the future.
I painted all 3 suitcases and stacked them on the end table in the nursery. I didn't glue them down because I may use them for other projects in the future.
The final result: decor that I can use for storage and re-purpose in the future!
Enjoyed the project?

Adorable. Your little girl is so blessed to have a wonderfully creative mommy. I'll never look at old suitcases the same way again.
