Vintage Luggage


A couple of weeks ago, I came across the sweetest 70's canvas suitcase in a thrift shop. I just loved the groovy colorful flower design.


When I unzipped it, I saw that there was a matching, slightly smaller case inside. (Bonus!!) Needless to say, I was thrilled with my find, and plopped it into my shopping cart.


When I got home, I inspected the suitcase more closely and, to my surprise (and delight), I realized that inside the second one, there was a third matching suitcase! Also, each suitcase had a string with its key tied inside.

All together now...

The littlest suitcase just makes me want to plan a little weekend getaway...
