The Samsonite Suitcase Pet Bed Lets Kitty Rest After Her Day's Travels

— January 30, 2013 — Eco
It's fascinating to see what artists and designers are able to make from vintage briefcases, and the Upcycled Samsonite Suitcase Pet Bed is a prime example of a clever and playful product. Miles and Aimee Harrison manage an Etsy shop called Atomic Attic from which they sell a number of items made from repurposed consumer goods.

This particular one is an antique white bag that's mounted on what seems to be the supportive structure of a task chair. The base has been painted a cheerful red and the halved travel compartment has been reinforced and enhanced for your feline. The Upcycled Samsonite Suitcase Pet Bed features a plushy cushion and a soft removable slipcover of teal plaid that facilitates easy cleaning.
