Your Old Suitcase Is Your Pet’s Next Bed

With Earth Day fast approaching, there’s no better time to reuse old household items. Vintage suitcases are making an unexpected comeback: They’re going to the small dogs and cats! Or even to the pocket pets.

Whether you choose a suitcase pet bed already made for you (like the one pictured here from Etsy) or if you make your own, you’ll have a one-of-a-kind pet accessory. Doesn’t that sound better than the same-old from the pet store?
Resources for finding or making your own pet bed:
• Make your own with instructions from Natural Home in Try This: Cat Baggage.
• Etsy seller Vintage Renaissance specializes in fun and chic suitcase pet beds.
• Watch a Threadbanger video for more inspiration. They show you how to command some pet toy storage inside your case.
Do you have a unique pet bed to add flair to a corner of your home?
