reupholster seats
A modern copy of a traditional chair can work wonders, and vice versa. If you are on a budget, go for a chair with a simple form that needs minimal work, like a midcentury modern design wood-frame, rather than a wingback chair.

Create a feature wall upcycled
for upcycler who just can not seem to stop buying on flea markets, this is the ultimate idea to reuse all those wonderful finds!

It will take a good amount of measurement and the first planning on paper, but the end result will be well worth it.

there are so many possibilities with regard to the junk shop display and salvage yard located. Instead of a train, what about an old wooden plane propeller or wooden skis? Or why not combine a collection, such as antique mirrors, enough dishes or oriental lacquer trays?

Style table
Sometimes a strange juxtaposition of objects can work a treat. Who would have thought old rusted metal panels, taxidermy and Barbie dolls might look so good together?
