Take one old suitcase.....this one was navy blue with a lovely blue satin lining. First I painted the whole suitcase a soft grey green color I like. Then I painted the trim and handle a creamy white. Using the same creamy white in a dry brush technique I put a small amount of white paint on a dry brush and brush it all over the suitcase partially covering up the green. When all dry I added the suitcase to my collection being sure to put the torn baggage check tickets back on the handle.
have a nice day....now....go make something beautiful.
