Let's save some money and re-use what you already have! Simple changes can go along way. For example revamp tired armchairs with a fresh brushed cotton like this buttoned armchair in Tennessee from Casamance or use a funky wallpaper to recover an old tired chest of drawers or wardrobe. Victorians used this method to decorate screens and furniture, and it's a perfect way to use left over wallpaper or try out a new one.Just make sure you prepare the surface first rolling on some PVA glue. When dry, paste on the paper and, after a couple of days, varnish with a matt glaze. The transformation will be fantastic!
