Green Home Improvement Design: Old Suitcase is a New Table

Tweet

 

As Kermit famously sang, it's not easy being green. But it sure can be cool. Of course, we're talking about environmental friendliness. One way to be green is to focus your home improvement and housing deign ideas on ecologically minded decorating dreams. In other words, recycle old stuff and make it new.

Take, for instance, this table in this picture I found. The homeowner took an old suitcase - I mean "vintage" - and added some table legs. It turns into a great little table for your entryway or near a chair/couch. Not only is it unique, but it has a compartment instead of a drawer. Your visitors will talk about it for years to come.

The website this comes from doesn't offer a step-by-step how to on how to turn an old suitcase into a new table, so we can't share the instructions. But it looks like it's not a terribly difficult DIY project.
