I think that organizing has become my hobby. Truth be told, I find certain items irresistible when out “a-thriftin’. And one of them is vintage suitcases.
I found this white Samsonite beauty at the Goodwill for …are you ready?…$3.99! Luckily for me, they don’t consider the “60”s vintage, or this would have ended up in their online store. Score!
(And the fact that I am not considered “Vintage” having been born in the “60”s makes me pretty happy too!)
I think it was Cori’s “Paper Punch Buffet” idea that gave me the inspiration that this would be the ideal organizer for each month’s collection. This little tray is the perfect organizer for all my fussy cuts and punchables. All my girls fit beautifully in that front area, Love!
This month’s Collection is titled “Homemade”, and I absolutely LOVE it! The colors are perfect, a few fall colors excellently combined with pastels. A wonderful rest for the eye with all the earthy tones surrounding us this season!
A few of the items I keep in there at all times: paper pieces, washi tape, sticker paper, Reset Girl tissue paper (when Cori sent her orders in boxes), and my sweet little TRG Camp Reset pouch with a selection of doilies.
Everything fits in there just beautifully! I’m careful with what I put in the pockets because the elastic is a bit old.
There’s even enough room for journals!
Since my husband and I have purchased a little vacation/retirement home, we travel back and forth quite a bit, so I am definitely getting a lot of use from my vintage train cases.
I hope you’ve enjoyed this little peek into this month’s collection! Visit TheResetGirl.com for the latest collection!
As always,
Thank You so much for stopping by,
Have a great week,

Hi Patty love the 60s case and all the fun stuff in those compartments, so nice to have your stash at the ready, to dash off on a whim. That retirement getaway sounds fun! Hopefully plenty of time for crafting.

I’m a bit torn on getting more crafting time in, I spend a lot of time with my daughter and grandson while I’m here. Luckily he likes to craft, but more of the crayon and sticker variety. Yesterday, he colored one of the couch cushions blue, thank goodness it washed out! 🙂

Oh Patty! what a great find, it’s perfect for all those yummy goodies! i find i am much more motivated to do artsy stuff when the supplies i am using are “at the ready” and i don’t have to go hunting for them. I love the Traveler’s notebook in the case, where did you get it? your pictures are always so inspiring and delicious!! tfs 💕

Thank you so much Jenny! That TN is a cover I made years ago. I’m not very good at making them, but I love choosing my own fabric.
