Vintage Furniture Resurgence and Design Trend

Even though antique furniture never goes out of style, its popularity skyrocketed recently. Peoples’ opinion about secondhand furniture is changing because they see it as an opportunity to get high-end and long-lasting pieces without the hefty price tag. On the other hand, the desire for something unique that isn’t mass-produced rushed decor enthusiasts to the nearest thrift stores. 

Fitting a charming antique piece in your interior isn’t as difficult as you thought. With mix and match styles becoming popular, you can enhance your home with a statement piece without hassles. In this post, you will find out how to implement your antique finds across different styles.

Vibrant dresser makeover

Painting a dresser in a vibrant color will freshen up the piece while covering the dents and scratches due to withstanding the trials of time. A white color will perfectly fit minimalist interiors and modest color schemes, while turquoise will make a striking accent piece. Curate your gorgeous dresser with some artwork in vivid colors for a spectacular visual touch, or create a subtle gallery wall to anchor the composition.
