Above, Recreate’s suitcase chair in Revrobe Cameo Blue.
The minute I chanced upon these upcycled suitcase chairs by interior design shop Recreate, sitting all packed up and pretty in a far corner of the internet, I developed a dire case of the ‘I want you’s.’ Who would have thought that vintage-suitcases-turned-chairs could be so feverishly good-looking? Sadly, these superb suitcase seats come with a price tag I really can’t justify, so in hopes of curing my ‘I want you’s,’ I’ll just sit and ogle.
Clockwise from the left: Recreate’s Square Brown Leather chair, White Silverline chair, and Leather Case/Yellow Knit chair.
Any decor items that have you in the throes of desire?

Those are so beautiful! Thanks for making my heart hurt, Hannah. : ) As it is for you, these are out of my price range. Such a tragedy.
Wow I am blown away by these! Makes me want to save up and buy one of these bad boys.
Ahh! These are so cool! I have to try and figure out how to make one. :) My mom just made me a table made out of a suitcase though!

These are beautiful pieces of furniture, and they looked pretty doable as a diy project, so I googled:

This is from a blog called “See Kate Sew”. I’m not very good at sewing, but this seems like a good first project. The instruction provided are very helpful.
I’m thinking of making one of these chairs, and once I do I’ll post my results :D
Ooh, I’d love to see someone try this. It’d be very inspiring, I do say. Look forward to your post!
I want these chairs!!!
They are Beautiful!!!
Recreate has a lot of really amazing stuff! They once made a cupboard out of an old stove, it was the sweetest thing I’ve ever seen!
I love how they use recycling as a way of making beautiful furniture!
I have vintage suitcases like these. I’d like to make my own. Maybe a DIY project in the future..
These furniture pieces are truly unique. I am a definitely getting these…
