Honour an old piece of furniture by transforming it into a new treasure.

Honour an old piece of furniture by transforming it into a new treasure.

It’s a great time to revamp that worn piece of furniture into an item you are proud of that is good for both the environment and your mental wellbeing. Instead of sending preloved furniture to landfill why not use this time to upcycle it, creating pieces that bring joy? They could even become favourite family heirlooms. Giving a piece of furniture a new lease on life is a creative way of making something unique and where some may see something damaged, stained or broken, now is the time to see opportunity in potentially solid items that may still have years of use left in them. Upcycling furniture could even lead to a new hobby and cash flow if you want to on-sell pieces. Having the time to create something that perhaps slows your mind and to see a project through can give you a focus, using creativity and your imagination – which can only be good for you.
