The top has been sanded and stained a beautiful mahogany and the base is painted in Naturalist Grey which compliments today’s rustic decor trends.

The dovetail drawers have been left in their original condition to maintain a piece of its historical integrity. Antiqued brass ring drawer pulls open the top two drawers and coordinating antiqued brass knobs open the bottom two drawers.

Introducing my luggage inspired dresser

This vintage 4 drawer dresser has been completely made over to look like stacked vintage luggage. It has good bones and is constructed of solid wood. The drawers are in great shape and there is no sticking when opening and closing them.

The frame has been roughly sanded and stained in a dark walnut color and each drawer front has been decorated with authentic vintage luggage and trunk pieces.

The top drawer has been painted a creamy white, distressed and then given an antique glaze. It is made to look like two separate suitcases and either handle pulls the whole drawer open. Two metal American Tourister labels were salvaged and attached to the top right side.

An old trunk handle and rusty latches have been added to the stained second drawer. The black plastic handle pulls the drawer open and an old Delta Airlines paper tag was saved for charm. The metal latch on the left works and actually unclips! The missing metal latch on the right adds to its true vintage appeal.

Plaid brown vinyl from a soft sided suitcase has been added to the front of drawer number three and the gold clips on either side open and close. The brown leather handle pulls this drawer open.

Drawer number four has been stained in a light oak color. There are two buckle straps on either side and the coordinating handle in the middle opens the drawer.

Each drawer has been lined with map paper to go with the traveling theme.

It was a lot of fun putting this piece together and I am already on the lookout for another dresser and old worn out luggage!
