Do you remember the old chair grandpa used to sit sipping his tea and telling you about his old navy days? Do you wish to restore it and reminisce the good old days? Well, let’s try and give the old furniture a new funky twist. The good news here is old and dented furniture can be turned into new and funky pieces of art. A little polishing, painting, and repairing can give the old logs a whole new look. Kenyon Building is one of the leading carpenters in the suburbs of Melbourne. They provide new and innovative ideas for building new furniture or renovating old ones to suit your needs.  Here are a few ideas, which can be used for repairing and reusing old furniture.

Old chairs
Old chairs have several stories to tell. Why throw them away if they are broken? You can turn them into side tables, stools or ottomans and reuse them in your living room, bedrooms or gardens. If one or more legs of a chair are broken, do not worry! Take the seating part of the chair, place it on an old barrel and there you go! A brand new and innovative stool is ready for use! If the colour of the chair has faded, paint it with bright acrylic colours and reuse it as a poolside chair.

Old Cupboards
Tightening a few loose hinges may not be a big deal. However, repairing a broken or dented door may be a bit tedious. You can reuse the cupboard as a wall unit. Make few adjustments such as add few shelves and hooks; and it will be perfect to display your books, art pieces, small plants and even the trophies your kids win! You can also try painting the cupboard with designs to cover up the worn out places. For a kid’s room, you can paint a Disney princess or a Marvel avenger on the cupboard. For an adult’s room, an elegant design can be painted to compliment the interiors of the room.

Old Wooden Shoe Racks
Shoe racks are smaller than cupboards but equally useful. Similar to cupboards, you can use old shoe rack as storage units in the kitchen and kids room. Remove the doors, polish and paint it and mount it up on the wall. There! You have a perfect place to display your decorative items. Another way to use old wooden racks is to place it flat, add a plank of wood on the top to cover the opening and throw a mattress on it! You have a little seating arrangement with storage.

Old tables
You can use your creativity when reusing old tables. Old tables can be polished and painted with different designs. You can customize the design according to the person who will be using it or the place where it will be kept. If the table is being used inside the house, pastel colours can be used that would complement the interiors of the room. For outside, the same table can be given a classic wooden look.

Reuse and Repair For Good
All the above ideas can be applied to various furniture items we see around us. The idea is to reuse the wood and make something new and exciting out of old boring furniture. Repairing old furniture is a good option when parts of the original piece are to be replaced or fixed. We should try to preserve the original piece as much as possible. Sometimes conservation is enough. Adding a few new layers of quality polish can do wonders. Restoration should be tried in the best way possible and new life should be given to old furniture.

Advantages or Repairing and Reusing
Furniture that is made of good wood isn’t easy to give up. In today’s time when wood has become costly, reusing old furniture with few modifications is an intelligent move to make. Here are few advantages of getting creative with old furniture:
  1. You can save lots of money which will otherwise be spent on new furniture of the same design. You can simply modify small furniture pieces by combining them together and give it a completely new look.
  2. You can reuse furniture as something else after a few modifications. As mentioned previously, a simple shoe rack can be converted into kitchen storage unit.
