How much is that doggy in the suitcase?

I am absolutely moggy about this ‘petbed’ I found on Design Sponge.

dog in suitcase

Kirsten took a vintage suitcase and turned it into a ‘petbed’. Why not? It won first place in the 2008 d*s diy contest and I can see why. No more dog hair all over and no more fighting over who gets the couch. Absolutely brilliant! I have to get one of these but I think the shipping costs to South Africa will amount to a small fortune. I am probably going to have to turn it into my own DIY project for my three smiley-faced dogs and floppy cat.

    I’m adopting a dog in the next couple months, and I know I’ll be crazy for fun accessories like the doggy bed. And that pup is too cute. I want that one!

    But my real reason for commenting: I love, love, love your new sugarbush bag. It’s positively gorgeous. You’re a great designer/creator. While each of your bags is stunning and hip, you manage to up the ante each week. I’m always eager to see what’s next!

    Just wait till you see the bags and other products I have planned for the next few weeks. I went and spent a fortune at the fabric shop today. I always go in and I say to myself: “You only need max 3 meters of fabric today!” Well, I bought 12 today!!!! I cannot wait to show you. :)

    I have been loving this! Unfortunately, they could never make one big enough for my big old dog.

    What a fun idea! If I had a dog (a little one)– that would be the bed for them. Too cool.

    Awesome find! I have one dog that would fit. The other two would require a suitcaase the size of a refrigerator! hahah
