Re-upholster<br />

You wanted that sofa enough to splash out the<br />

cash for it a few years ago, so surely you could<br />

learn to love it again? With a little facelift of course!<br />

Getting tired, old furniture re-upholstered is<br />

apparently becoming trendy again.<br />

Young people are realising they can’t just<br />

buy and then chuck away a few years later.<br />

And although upholstery is not always<br />

the cheapest option in the short term,<br />

you’ll be saving money in the long<br />

term as the work will last.<br />

Try antiques<br />

Like upholstery, plumping for antiques to furnish your house<br />

might not be the cheapest way to go but, let’s face it, if that<br />

table has been around for more than 100 years, you’re not<br />

going to need to replace it for some time. It’s a genuinely<br />

good time to buy brown furniture.<br />

By which we mean mahogany or walnut pieces that are out<br />

of fashion at the moment. But make sure you buy from a<br />

reputable dealer.<br />
