Repurposed Home Furnishings -- Motley Mixing & Matching Is The Best Medicine!
![]()
With a seemingly endless crop of repurposed home furnishings tumbling off of the conveyor belt these days, it's hard to surprise the green minded consumer anymore.
The key features that most eco-responsible people desire in "new to them" furniture are:
1) Style 2) Innovation 3) Practicality 4) Comfort 5) Originality
So, whether we're talking about reclaimed wood & woven recycled blanket furniture, recycled skateboard stools or resurfaced etched stainless steel coffee table conglomerations, the main goal is to dust off unwanted old objects and through creative nipping and tucking, create a whole new desirable look.
Breathing new life into materials that may appear a little worse for the wear isn't rocket science, but for the average individual, it isn't as easy to pull off as one who is blessed with the natural inclination toward being creative.
Confused-Direction (Rugh Deluxe) designed this lounge table that fits the bill given the fact that it is made out of an old oak piece that has been buffed and polished into shiny new glory.
What makes it more than just another tweaked recycled flea market find is that it is elevated to great new artsy heights with the addition of old bathtub claw feet (from, presumably, a Victorian era tub).
When your friends come over for drinks, they definitely won't make the mistake of thinking that you got your latest addition from Crate & Barrel since they broke the mold with this one!
