Restore or Replace?
Making the decision to either restore a piece of furniture or replace it is often a tricky decision.
Often time’s people assume restoring furniture is a cheaper alternative to replacing it. And in some cases it is. For instance replacing a well built sturdy piece of wood furniture is not only going to be hard to replace with something comparable it will most likely be expensive to replace. Furniture like that should be restored.
However, if the furniture isn’t well built and doesn’t hold any sentimental significance, replacing the furniture would be, in most cases, the less expensive option.
When you are trying to decide if you want to replace or restore a piece of furniture, it will help to keep these things in mind:
-Sentimental Value of the piece
-Quality of the craftsmanship
-Affordability
-Finding something similar or that you like to take its place
