Nifty Ways to Spruce up any Furniture!

Written By RJT employee, Remington Colbert

In life things need upgrades. Some people go over board and take things to the extreme by replacing everything in their life. However that does not always need to be done. Whether you are trying to be "ballin' on a budget" or just like projects, below are some fun way to redefine a look on any piece of furniture. 

Paint

The easiest way is paint. However many people make the mistake of ruining a piece of furniture or art because they do not know what they already have. If it highly collectible, valuable, or very rare, do not touch it. Preserve it the best way possible. Paint can do an absolutely exceptional job.

Stain can either change the overall color of the wood, or it can be a nice freshen-up of an existing finish. This process can be messy and timeconsuming, however the finished product can be breathtaking.

Written by RJ Thieneman employee, Remington Colbert 

If you are like me, you probably do not have adequate storage in the kitchen for the pots, pans, dishes, cookware, snacks, veggies, the cake your mother made you, and at the moment your cabinets are bursting at the seems.

1. Mount Pot Lids on cabinet doors with command hooks.

This is a great saver. It frees up a pile of lose lids that always get caught in everything else. Plus it prevents from scratching. 

2. Create your own measuring cup rack!

This one is easy to read, there is a measurement reference chart, and it looks aesthetically pleasing.
