psychedelic psamsonite psuitcase (Decorate your suitcase)


I bought this Samsonite at a thrift shop for $16.99 today. It was hugely boring, so I decided to decorate it.

Here I am with mom's oil paints stenciling in a turtle.

I like the looks of this lots better.

And I don't think anyone will get mixed up at the airport and think it's theirs!

ya, I had thoughts like that when I was doing it, must be the geometric patterns in primary colors that give that effect.

I LOVE your suitcase, how you painted it. I have always called my backpack my turtle shell cause I live out of it. Come back to Finland soon and be my Co okay??! I need some spice in my life. :-)
