Hot August Daze Suitcase

Here is another project that we have worked on this week. I have had some time home with the kids which has been really great. Summer is wiggling away, so nice to have some days just lazing and gluing shtuff. We got an old suitcase and some children's books from Good Will and spray painted the outside of the suitcase. We covered the handles and locks with masking tape before we began. It is best if the suitcase has a smooth hard surface. Then we cut out the pictures and decoupaged them onto the outside. I am thinking that we will have to seal the images on it when we finish. It worked well for my daughter to do the gluing and I did the placement. I also used a hard brayer for smooth down the glued images.
