DIY Video Tutorial - Vintage Suitcase Made Out Of Cardboard Box

The first day of July and I am starting the month with the most requested DIY of the previous month!! Yes, the vintage suitcase planter that you all had seen in the previous post about "Growing Indoor Succulent Container Garden"  and had requested me to share the DIY video tutorial. Watch the video below and don't forget to read the description if you are watching it on youtube!!


Hope you have subscribed to my YouTube channel and if you liked the video don't forget to share it with like-minded and creative people.
Now all those who are planning to make this vintage suitcase, please pay heed to the important advice that use a plastic box instead of a cardboard box if you are planning to use it as a planter or a pot to grow plants and you can use M-seal or polymer clay instead of cardboard stripes to make belts and straps.

This vintage suitcase can be used in various ways such as a desk organiser, jewellery box, keepsake box, to organise books/magazine, display flowers (fill small bottles/jars with water and place some fresh flowers and keep them closely packed inside the vintage suitcase) or as a coffee table decor.

I have grown a succulent garden in it and taking extra care of it so that it doesn't become soggy and believe me it's quite hard but not impossible :)

I am quite happy with this DIY project and playing around with the African basket inspired planter. These baskets are in trend these days. Whether you are giving a bohemian, African or jungalow touch to your decor this DIY African basket will never disappoint you in achieving the look. Here is how it is sitting pretty in my home now.

I have created this small seating in my home office and this African rope basket is a perfect addition here. It is blending quite well with the color palette.
