Living Out of a Suitcase is Looking Pretty Good
I thought since today was all about furniture shopping I'd keep with the theme. This cat bed from Vintage Renaissance is made from a vintage suitcase and mid-century coffee table legs and is just so cool. But the cat doesn't care, you can see that he's just dying to attack a piece of string he sees on the floor and is already over the whole modelling thing.
If only it was this easy to furnish our bedroom. After a day of looking at showrooms with a three year-old in tow (who at the moment thinks it's hilarious to get Mummy and Daddy angry and frustrated - her eyes light up and she smiles BIG at the first sign of exasperation) I'm about ready to resort to luggage, too.
oh, dear - sorry. maybe try getting her involved in the furniture? once when i needed a coffee table, my son went along. i got him to open lots of drawers, sit on lots of chairs, sofas and beds...it annoyed the salespeople a bit(what do they know!), but it kept up both calm! only thing is....now i can't buy something unless he approves....LOL

That piece is pretty incredible. I'm glad you posted it. And I hate furniture shopping. It's so difficult!

how adorable! you can actually buy legs like these all by themselves if you want to diy without having to buy/destroy another piece of furniture.
