I was ready to toss this little worn-out chair that had been with us for almost 20 years 😲. However, my daughter didn’t even let me get close to the trash bin and promised she would transform it into a beautiful piece of furniture 💖. See what she did and assess her work 👇👇👇👇.
One fine day, I discovered an old chair hidden in a corner of the attic. Over time, it had lost its natural color, and the pieces of polystyrene foam were completely damaged.
I thought about throwing it away. But my daughter wouldn’t even let me approach the trash. “No rush!” she said, with a thoughtful look.
“Give me a second chance!” she declared. I was a bit surprised. My daughter has always been full of creativity, but the idea that she could repaint the chair seemed too big.
“I’m going to make something beautiful that no one expects,” she said with great certainty.
And that’s how the restoration began. The old chair, once brown and dull, was given a new lease on life. My daughter kept the original wooden frame almost intact, preserving the texture and softness of the natural wood.
Meanwhile, the pieces of polystyrene that were in bad shape received a “new lease on life.” She painted them light green to create a contrast and highlight the beauty of the wood.
Once the work was completed, the chair appeared to be much more than just a piece of furniture: it became a true decorative element in the room, with clear lines and comforting elegance. This old object found a second life that motivates us every day.
