SUITCASE:

Finished (?) suitcase

There was a 'suitcase challenge' in one of the Finnish mini groups, and I was originally hoping to make one of a mint package that was mentioned, only I couldn't find such mints in the shops. So, I took some cardboard from a Fazer chocolate box (perfect excuse to eat chocolate, if an excuse is needed..), and made the suitcase of it.

I demolished a shirt for this..

Covered with dark grey wool..

Another angle..

Someone's been packing..

Leather handle..

Leather straps with hook & eye..

A gift package of shampoo, shower gel & moisturiser..

Leather corners..

All that's in the suitcase..

I originally made it so that it can be closed, but then I really Really wanted to make the leather corners, so I decided to keep it open.. It CAN still be closed with some force, but closing it might cause damage to the leather corners.. Anyway, I think it's more exciting when you can see what's in there! LOL

Those leather corners and the leather handle..
