Step 4Dealing with troubling trim...
I chose a difficult trim to work with...tassels. The problem was that the tassels hung down and in my way as I tried to glue down the liner and trim. Here's how I solved that issue.
I ran pipe cleaners through the tassels and tucked the pipe cleaner ends under the outside lip of the suitcase edge. This held the tassles out of my way while I was trimming the liner and glueing it under the trim.
In the end, I have an eye-catching display case...with tassles! :) And it smells like new.
As for cleaning the exterior, a little water and dish soap cleaned up most spots. Maybe I'll try a Magic Eraser on the rest. Oh, and a toothbrush to get into the nooks and crannies.
Best of luck if you try this yourself!
