There may be several reasons why to consider re-upholstering a piece of furniture:
- You have old or antique furniture you have inherited
- You want to keep your furniture out of the landfill
- Your furniture has sentimental value
- It is the right scale, size and style for your home
- It is an unusual piece you could never replace
- You want to have a truly unique piece
- You value quality over quantity
- You know exactly what you want
An important step in the process of re-upholstering any piece of furniture is to determine its suitability for re-upholstering.
If your furniture cannot be re-upholstered and you can’t bear to add to the landfill when you are truly done with the piece, consider donating it to a charity or give it away to someone who may want to get a little more life from it.
