I hesitate to show some of the "before" pictures of my refurbished furniture but the total transformation of the pieces (and why I love doing this) is really best seen that way. Some are "dumpster" quality before - others just tired looking. I do not buy unless the bones are very good - usually requiring hand-tied 8-coil springs in foundation and woodwork that is already wonderful or can be redone to be wonderful. As I've said before, the price of redoing a piece when you consider using great fabrics and master upholsterers (most costly element) is just not worth it if the quality of the piece is poor.
NEVER buy Rooms to Go, Ikea or any other inferior piece to redo - these are fine for short-term furniture solutions but do not stand the test of time!
