- Hi Friends and RUclips Family,
This is definitely a TRUE trash to treasure. On my bucket list I have always wanted to makeover vintage suitcases. Well.. sometimes you take what you are given.

I like your idea to make your suitcases very sturdy. You two not only make beautiful items, you do honest work & I would not be afraid to buy anything from you.
Beautiful work, Yvonne and Chris. Your attention to detail and high standards are what success is built on!
What is best about their work is the high standard of craftsmanship.
What an astounding concept: making a side table from a suitcase! You are so creative! I hope they sell for you.
I love how these both turned out. You put so much work and detail into your pieces. They’re gorgeous. Thanks Yvonne
I made an old suitcase into an wardrobe for my granddaughter,s American Girl Doll. It turned out so cute!
Great idea
Love, love, love old suitcases. What you did with these is just divine. I have simply stadied mine in different rooms and use them as storage. The only one I have ever painted was a blue one from the set I received as a graduation gift in 1973. I collect train cases and use them to hold different categories of craft supplies.
That train case is a splendid idea! TFS 😊
Now that was a transformation. You guys did a wonderful job. Chris is such a trooper.
I have three vintage suitcases. You crushed it. Now I'm feeling guilty like I need to redo mine as well. You and Chris always put so much care into the work that you do. I know that you are a godly woman and it reflects in the work you do. Do everything as though you do it unto the Lord. Thank you
I’ve just bought 2 suitcases from an auction and I’d imagined adding some wood to the inside for the legs… so thank you both very much for sharing how you’ve done your suitcases ❤ brilliant..
You definitely know how to give each piece “that finishing touch”
You were so in tune with the spiritual vibe because my husband is working with a bunch of old suitcases and he is having trouble coming up with some clever ideas!! You are just what he needed to move ahead with his projects!! I learn so much from you for my own crafting. Thank you for sharing your talent and spirit! God Bless!!
I agree. I always put wood in the bottom of them also. Just adds to the sturdiness.😊
Came here for the makeovers and got a satisfying cleaning video too. ❤️❤️❤️
I have never seen the suitcases made into tables, these are so great😍🥰😻
I have never seen a vintage suitcase in a thrift store! You did a great job with them!
You have the patience of a saint!!! They look AMAZING!!!
Yvonne….THIS ARE FABULOUS…. Truly fabulous ! I love the paint colors…the Rub-N-Buff was perfect for the hardware….then those legs ! I say you picked the perfect style leg for them. Wood I don’t think would have looked right….JUST PERFECT all the way around !
Then the accents on them…..lady you are GOOD ! I think I’m watching this again…so enjoyed it all! I am SO EXCITED ABOUT THESE ! I can’t wait for you to tell us how people respond to them in your Booth !
Feel better…🙏.
EXCELLENT EXCELLENT SAVE ON THESE !!!! You too Chris 👍
🌞🌞🌞🙏🙏🙏🌞🌞🌞
They both look great, you did a wonderful job! I love vintage suitcases myself, I have one that I use to display some items in my booth for a craft show I do in October. Yours turned out great! ❤️
These have got to be some of the most drastic transformations y’all have done! And oh my goodness what a fabulous job y’all did! The are not recognizable!! Both suitcases are absolutely beautiful and gorgeous as end tables. The work that went into them really shows an awesome job well done!!!
Thank you
Omg how yall have beautified those suitcases to showroom pieces💖💖💖
You did such a good job on the suitcases. That is one thing I’ve been wanting to do also because it looks like it be so much fun. I’m glad I had a chance to see how you did yours so now I have a better idea how to tackle one. And I was also wondering if it would be cost-effective to re-do the inside with material. So I think I’m gonna do it your way and just remove it and clean it up. Also good idea to put that piece of wood in there to make it more sturdy. Great job as usual.
I have a suitcase from when I was little I want to redo. This is a perfect idea for it
I absolutely love how these turned out. I have severa piecesl of vintage luggage and now I'm inspired to do something with them. Thanks 😊
I have tons of vintage suitcases! My husband kind of rolls his eyes at me when I get any, but he’s bought me home a full set 2 x’s!! 😉🥰
WOW! WOW! These two are gorgeous. I could not pick only one. The colors are amazing. Thankful you were able to find these.
You have amazing talent and a great eye for style and color. The finishes inside are perfect.
Great idea for new hinges and one to hold it up.
Thank you.
You did an awesome job on the suitcases! Thank the Lord that he heard your request for two! I have two and you have inspired me to try and makeover mine! Thx ☺️
Catching another playlist overnight 😊
You are so lucky to find 2 suitcases. I have one and have been on the look for another for years. Great transformation..
You and Chris are the perfect team. Great job on these two pieces.
WOW!!!! You two did an amazing job transferring junk to jewel. I like the legs you chose to use.
I have several suitcases but they belonged to my husband and his father. I can't imagine selling them. But I do think it would be cute to make them into side tables. Thanks for the inspiration.
How creative with the suitcases! Definitely something I haven't tried!
I grew up antique shopping with my parents when things were cheap. How things have changed. I have always repurposed or recycled old vintage and antique pieces. Now I’m just starting in a different direction taking it a little bit more serious so that I’m able to sell and please other people beside myself. I am telling you this because I have learned so much from you and your husband on how you do things how you approach things just you’re cleaning and setting up and just trying to make everything perfect. I really have learned and continue to learn your way of handling your business and I very much want to handle it the same way. Thank you so much for your continued interest in others and just giving out as much information as possible. And I love your Attention to detail. I hope one day I’n able to take a trip and come out to your shop and see things in person. Again thank you and I will continue to watch and share information that you have shared with me.
Thank you for sharing that with me 💝
Some thrifted wallpaper would be awesome on the inside too. Awesome ideas
Wow! Wow!
You are truly an artist
These are just so Amazing!!!
FANTASTIC Yvonne nChris !
❤️❤️❤️ them 👍
Such a lot of work Yvonne! They turned out beautifully.
Adorable! Vintage luggage stands look cute too. You screw the suitcase to rack to make it stable.
Hmmm… Have you decided to ask what else you could find next and see if it shows up?? 🤣 that’s awesome! Love how they came out.
💝
Awsome job you both did.Thank you again for sharing
Love love love ❤️ ❤️ ❤️ the suitcases !!!!!
The suit cases turned out great. God job!
These were definitely a labor of love. That was a lot of work.
"Use my carpet cleaner". Cracked me up every time I think of you saying that laugh. That's why I love your channel.😂
🤗😁
These are awesome!!! I think you picked the perfect legs. They are simple and don't take away from the suitcases. Another beautiful job.
I love vintage suitcases! I’ve collected a few in my day and had to downsize when we moved but I still have 4 of my most loved. I love how you reinvented the ones you found! Thank you for taking us along on your journey💚
Love the suitcases, you and hubby did a great job. If I lived in your area I would definitely buy one.
GREAT Job !!! I think they both look fabulous !! You and your husband put so much work into every project y'all do...whoever gets these, they are really get a great item!
Love the suitcase end tables
Amazing work on these suitcases, they are completely transformed into beautiful as well as practical pieces.
They are beautiful, great job guys!
Great idea using your carpet cleaner! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Wow! Wow! Wow! You and Chris did it again. Amazing!! The second one is my favorite.
These turned out so cool now I wanna find some for myself!!!! Love the suitcases!!!!
What adorable pieces, your work is impeccable. Thanks for the inspiration 😊
Hi Yvonne. The suitcases came out great. Never ceases to amaze me of how meticiculous u and Chris r. luv them!
I loved both! I love everything you and Chris do! Thank you for sharing your talents with us and God bless you and yours...❤
Those look great! Those were alot of work but the outcome was amazing!
OH MY!!!!!! I want these! Next time I'm down state I'm going to try and go to the Antique Capital! TFS! Judyxx
I had just purchased a suitcase from a thrift shop when traveling in Florida for 2.00. They had 6 suitcases but I only bought one as I wasn't sure what to do with it. Now I do. Thanks for posting.
I love everything that you guys do! The extra steps that you take makes everything just perfect.
Ugh - now I need to collect suitcases also?!?!? I’m so motivated- will hold the TV in the French/Vintage guest room for sure - fabulous job! TFI ✈️🧳
Lol 💕
Those came out great! You could also use the IOD exploration transfers on them. Cost you more than the tissue paper decoupage but less time consuming.
Love love the suitcases!!!! The travel labels totally gave it a finished look!!!
Oh my I think these came out beautiful I collect them but I have just done the inside never have attempted the outside of them they were gorgeous!!!❤❤❤God Bless you and yours!!!
Nice save! Love they add storage too💜
I was hoping you would add antique wax to the No. 7 suitcase. The decoupage would blend in beautifully with the paint and give it an aged look.
Wow, a lot of work but they turned out awesome ❤️❤️❤️
You blew it out of the water again, Yvonne. Great job.
I love this! The suitcases look so nice.
Hello! I just watched your video about the suitcase tables. My husband collects vintage maps, and i have an old suitcase that i was planning on making into a table. I am going to cut up some of his old maps and decoupage them onto the outside of the suitcase! So glad you included the link for the legs, because i wasn't sure where to find some. Thank you for the inspiration!
I remember the day when I actually used a suitcase like those to travel. Enjoyed your video, as always.
A great job on both cases !! 👏👍👌
Beautiful. Love them both!!
Love the nostalgia of old vintage suitcases. You did an amazing job!
You and Chris did a great job! Hello from TEXAS
Great job on that true “trash to treasure” transformation.
Love the suitcase.
These were really nice! I think it’s the best transformation of a suitcase that I have seen.
Great job on the suitcases. Like the legs as well. Industrial but also light and airy. Thanks for a great video. Good job to Chris as well.
Great job.....found one on the curb going to redo and put in garage sale. Thanks for your time and videos. God bless
Love these. Wish I could shop your booth!!!
Beautiful.....I have the suitcase set my folks used from the 40's or 50's with the matching cosmetic case. Will never let them go!
Fantastic job! Love the way they turned out!
Beautiful job on those suit cases!!
These suitcases are sooooo sweet! Great job!
They came out nice.
I was hopping you would do your black and white and and some flowers or something spring looking.
I so miss going to Menards 💞 we don't have them in the east 😢
They are just great. It gives me the courage to try one myself. Thank you for all of your help.
They are beautiful
Great job, love how they turned out
I absolutely love them!!
you did such a great job,i loooooooove them
You have inspired me to take on a similar project. I want to buy a lighter blue Samsonite train case like the one I had in the early 60's to make as either an accent or bedside table. I would like to store makeup in it and use the mirror in it when applying the makeup
I absolutely love what you did with them! Definitely think the metal legs were the way to go.
These turned out amazing 🥰
Wow! Beautiful! I really love how these turned out! You guys did an amazing job on those suitcases!! Thank you so much for sharing!!
Love the suitcases!
😲 WOW..those are so gorgeous...You are amazing..you have been blessed with a very special gift..you are very talented.☺️☺️
I have very old trunks and suit cases from my grandparents..I just turned 50..I so want to do this..if you have any ideas for very old trunks.. would love to see what you come up with 🤗
Yvonne, these are gorgeous! I thought so even without the embellishments. And the hairpin legs are perfect for them. I have a train case that I want to makeover to store some fabric in, so this video was a tremendous help for that. Thanks for sharing.
I absolutely love these!!
