magazine storage - diy


part 1.  we are overflowing with issues of the new yorker over at our apartment.  we love them, and can't bear to part with them until they are all read.  (good luck with that, right?)

part 2.  i don't get attached to objects the way many people do.  however, there are a handful of exceptions.  one being my dad's briefcase.  it is an old monogrammed samsonite, and he loved it. it's been tucked away in a corner waiting for the perfect opportunity to be used.

part 3.  this post and this post on my friend, sana's blog: http://pipandestellablog.blogspot.com/.  she's a stylist and she runs a vintage supplier and decor shop, and she is inspiring!

the result:

the most recent issues are displayed.  issues will be moved to the
inside of the case as new issues arrive.


the goal is to add vintage suitcases underneath
my dad's briefcase for added back issue storage.


the best part...my dad's initials.




it makes me so happy to see my dad's beloved briefcase every day.  so many happy memories.
thanks for the idea, sana!!
