Airports may seem like an ocean of similar bags going round at the same speed. One can easily imagine how one can pick one of the wrong ones by mistake, particularly after a long trip where alertness is minimal and patience is limited. A suitcase can be made to have a little personality, and this can make it familiar upon its ultimate appearance on the belt. This does not necessarily need to be noisy and costly. It is the small gestures, personal information, and consideration that could make an average bag more easily identifiable. It can also make travelling a little bit more cheerful, and this can come in handy when people feel that the day is busy and time is limited.
Certainly bright luggage tags
Rather than plain tags, it would be worth selecting one with a striking design or a curious shape that would make the bag appear different. It could also help to make the process of verifying the name and contact information less tiresome and more personal.
Washable stickers that reveal interests
Several stickers, which can be removed, can transform an otherwise dull surface into something communicative. They are adjustable in the future in case the taste may change, and they will make the bag look relaxed and friendly without being overboard.
Patterned luggage covers
Slip-on covers have diverse prints, starting with plain old stripes to cute drawings. Other than the addition of style, they may even cover the bag against dust and scratches besides standing out in congested places.
Ribbon on the zipper pulls
Zipper pulls can also be colored in a minimal manner with the addition of small ribbons or cords. It can also help in reducing the difficulty of reaching zippers, and this can be helpful when passing at a fast rate through checkpoints.
Handwritten message in a clear pocket
Certain bags have transparent pockets that are used to put labels. A small personal touch of sliding in a handwritten note or design may look simple but yet present a pleasant touch when one turns the bag around.
Painted initials or simple shapes
A quiet signature may be added to the bag by using the fabric or acrylic paint and adding initials or small forms. The simplicity might also assist in maintaining the design as not being so bold or permanent that it feels.
Decorative keychains attached securely
The handle can be used as a miniature flag by attaching a sturdy keychain close to the handle. Selecting one that symbolizes a hobby or a memory can create a minor smile when one can see a bag even before being close.
Contrast zipper tape or covers
There are also zipper covers that are in vivid colors and slip over an existing zipper. They can modify the appearance of the bag to the extent of making it easier to distinguish it among other designs.
Fabric patches ironed or sewn
Luggage with a soft cover can be given a casual appearance by adding small patches. They may be small stories in the form of symbols or designs and may be put in corners that are not well-used.
Personalized luggage sleeves
Name sleeves, pattern sleeves, or plain graphics can be drawn on and off easily. They may come in handy during small journeys when a full cover is too much but a trifle detail is welcome.
Bold handle wraps
A bright wrap can be used to pad the handle and alter the appearance of the bag when being carried. It can also help one have a comfortable time with the suitcase in the event of long walks.
Colored wheels or wheel covers
There are suitcases with small wheel covers that snap on. The use of color towards the bottom might not be immediately noticeable but could be noticed once the bags begin rolling side by side.
