The upcycling of furniture has only gained popularity in our age of Pinterest, Etsy, etc. There are many reasons to invest in a restored piece...but these are what I believe to be the TOP 8!!
(1.) …because a craftsman has recognized its raw value and handcrafted an artpiece that will be unique to you and your home. Mass production is soooo boring and overrated!! (2.) ...because it’s GREEN. Why not give life back to something rather than tossing it into the carbon footprint!! (3.) …because you have an opportunity to support a small business in your area. Encourage our local economies to grow and flourish…Invest in your neighbors! (4.) …because vintage lines and themes are so “in” right now!! There is so much truth in the saying “They just don’t make it like they used to!!” (5.)….because a little piece of love from that craftsman is hand-stamped into every finished piece. And, you have an opportunity to bring that love into your home.(6.)…because it’s cost effective. The pricing on brand new furniture is so inflated! Get that Pottery Barn style on a shoestring budget!! (7)…because collecting eclectic pieces that span various décor genres and putting them together in one room is fun!! Matchy, matchy = so 80’s…Bring on shabby chic!! (8)…because there are so many COLORS to choose from!! Who wants neutral…it’s so muddy!! Bring on the fun, funky & fabulous!!
