How to turn old furniture into new practical and beautiful things for the home
We all know the feeling of attachment to non-inspired objects. Often it is with furniture that our fondest memories are associated. And when it breaks or loses its appeal, most people get rid of it as unnecessary trash. But there are also craftsmen who even from old and shabby furniture can create a real miracle. It is enough to show a little imagination, find free time and create a masterpiece will not keep you waiting.
Restoring old furniture with paint
Some things do not need drastic changes. Furniture that just peels off and fades paint can simply be repainted. It is not necessary to use a monophonic coating and choose a color identical to the original. If you devote the necessary amount of time to restoration, you can paint the surface or create a pattern on it.
We use a self-adhesive film
In modern building stores, you can buy self-adhesive wallpapers that can easily turn old furniture into new. Due to the large assortment and variety of color solutions, restored furniture can get truly unique. After all, such a coloring and combination of tones can not be found anywhere else.
Change the upholstery
Upholstered furniture most often requires a complete replacement of the cover, as it usually does not lend itself to washing or restoration. The process of upholstering the upholstery is quite laborious, because when removing the old cover, it may turn out that the product requires replacement of foam rubber, locks or spring blocks. Such a serious repair of old furniture is not subject to everyone, so before you get down to business, you need to evaluate your strength sensibly. In any case, if the owner so wants to give a new life to a sofa or armchair, you can always turn to professionals.
We completely change the functional purpose of the furniture
It is not necessary to rely on their original purpose when remaking old things. You can always dream up a little and, for example, make a comfortable sofa into the hallway from an old chest of drawers, and from an unnecessary chair - an original bench. By the way, from old chairs you can make comfortable hangers, and from a door with glass inserts - a photo frame on the entire wall.
