The Fresh Perspective...
Freshair Boutique
Refurbishing & thrifting furniture.
A little secret I’d like to share, if you currently aren’t aware, is a local shop called Shoe String Picker. They sell antique & refurbished furniture & accessories. I follow them on Instagram and are always day dreaming about filling my home with their furniture.
Although refinishing furniture can be time consuming, it can have such a significant impact when designing a space. It adds character, history, quirkiness & individuality. Most of their pieces are one of a kind. Here are my top 5 reasons why you should give it a shot;
It is better for the environment
It allows for your personality to shine
It can be less expensive
The pieces can last a lifetime
It’s fulfilling
One of our visions here at Freshair Boutique is to partner with a company (hopefully Shoe String Picker) and furnish the salon, quarterly, with new beautiful pieces. All the pieces would be available to hold for sale as well, which you could then scoop up at the end of the showing. Is this something you all would like to see? Although we love our current furniture, spicing things up a little is never a bad idea. Especially when the pieces coming in are one of a kind.
Have any of you ever repurposed & up-cycled a piece of furniture?
