And Away She Goes

This is our go to gift for High School graduates heading to college. Trunks like this have been around forever but this one has wheels on one end and a handle on the other so you can roll it. It was kismet when I saw this before christmas since Andrea's favorite color is purple ( at least I hope it's still purple). All the other trunks I bought were black. Found some graduation ribbon at Michaels and when I noticed the card I picked had purple trim I decided not to use the envelope. We're all set for her graduation party on Saturday. Love that it happens to be made in the USA .

Having a black rug and curtains in the spare room was a bonus photographing this trunk.
I wondered how you got the fabulous background to highlight this wonderful gift so well. Beautiful presentation for a great image. I could have used this oh so many years ago! I do still have one( maybe two) pieces of the luggage I received as a high school graduation gift.

What a wonderful graduation gift! I had one for college a few...okay maybe more then a few, years ago and loved it. Very well presented here, I'm sure Andrea will love it.

What a lucky girl to be getting such a wonderful gift. Love your photo and the sentiment of this gift. How nice to also have black carpet and drapes in your spare room to use as your background. I would have never guessed.

What a flood of memories come back, just seeing your amazingly thoughtful and cheery graduation gift! I had a black one that traveled with me from Tucson to St Louis for college and years later, my daughters had red ones! A need for that trunk seems to have never changed! And yes, more and more I, too, have been noticing the "Made in USA" tags on items, and "that's a good thing"!
