    A vintage suitcase in good condition inside and out
    Netting for Bow

    1 Luggage tag, vintage or make your own out of aged paper

  2. Step 2

    *Make sure suitcase is clean and inside is free of any dirt/dust
    *Place stickers randomly on front, back and sides of suitcase
    *With paint and brush write, Just Married..across the front of the suitcase in an upright position
    *Tie bow around one of the handles and attach luggage tag with name of the new Mr. and Mrs.
    *Close suitcase enough so that you have remaining a slight opening for card to slip through. Tie each handle with netting or ribbon to the levers on the opposite sides of the handles. This will keep your upright suitcase together and allow for cards to slip through opening.
