If you’ve ever struggled with if you should make If you’ve ever struggled with if you should makeover an antique, here is some help. 

In 2012, a friend of mine bought a house and this gorgeous armoire was in the basement and she gave it to me. It’s from Belgium late 1800s. It comes in 10 pieces and fits together like a jigsaw puzzle with no screws or nails of any sort. I gratefully accepted this gift! But I didn’t like the orange stain. 

A few years later I finally undertook the enormous job of sanding it all down and adding a white furniture wax to lighting it up (it’s lighter than shown in this photo). I’ve never regretted it a single day. 

This might help you if you are struggling:

Don’t Makeover If:

- the furniture piece is appraised at a high value as is

Do Makeover If:

- the only thing holding you back is feeling guilt over sanding/staining the wood 
- the only thing holding you back is knowing how much you paid for it X years ago (it doesn’t matter anymore, all furniture can be expensive and that was then, this is now!)
- you’re tired of the finish and want to get rid of the piece of furniture

It’s your home and you can do what you want with it. And you’ll never know if you don’t try. 🏡.
