My mom brought the train case that still held old doll clothes, I wasn't sure what I wanted to do with it, but knew it needed updating.
It sat in a room for six months before I was inspired to turn it into a traveling craft case. So the search began for different ideas on what to do with it.
I decided to paint it a burgundy/red. I used the Krylon Fusion spray paint for plastic.
I wanted a little detail added to the case, after all this is my traveling craft case. So I painted some detail and add script to it.
The script is "cre ate (kre'at) - to produce through artistic or imaginative effort".
Of course the inside material was an old mustard yellow to go with the avocado green, so that needed updating.
I added a pocket and elastic for different tools that I would require.
Also, thanks to a friend's suggestion, I added a removable insert with handles that could hold other items that I would want separated.
The finished product. I love it and can't wait to use it!
