These aren’t just makeovers but complete DIY furniture transformations – repurposing and upcycling an old thing to give it a new life.
What’s so attractive about transforming a piece of furniture — one that you might pick up in a used furniture store — is that first, you can do it yourself. And secondly, you can save a lot on getting a unique piece of furniture for your home.
You can choose your style too, from rustic chic to traditional and classic, with as much whimsy and decor statement as you see fit. So here are ten amazing furniture transformations with tutorials to try yourself.
