This restored HP themed dresser? I WANT THAT!! Not for my niece... for my bedroom ?
20+ People Who Got a Pile of Garbage and Turned It Into Something Worthy

People on our list love to save old and, thanks to the time and dirt, seemingly ruined objects. They’ve learned from their own example that a thick layer of dust and rust can hide nice things that just need some cleaning and a little bit of repair. And these people don’t get easily scared, even with most difficult cases.
“I knew that I could turn this piece of garbage into a nice thing.”
“My copper sink changed its color but I cleaned it with a mild detergent, apple cider vinegar, and a thin layer of toothpaste.”
“I purchased 3 skillets for $6 in total. Quality cookware was hidden under a thick layer of rust and dirt.”
“I made a Harry Potter themed dresser for my niece.”
A trash can makeover:
“I just had to soak this pot overnight in detergent made for grills and ovens.”
“I restored a mid-50s highchair that my grandma used with my mother. Now we can give it to my sister, who just had her first baby.”
“We’ve just purchased a power washer, and this was our first project. We cleaned our 20-year-old bench.”
“My mom wanted to buy a vintage mixer and I found a one that still worked for $5 at a thrift shop. I had to work hard to fix it and give it to my mom for Christmas.”
This car looks like brand-new now:
“I restored a Louis Vuitton bag that I bought for $75.”
It turned out that the teddy bear was never brown.
“I refurbished these Corcoran jump boots.”
“I bought this silver sugar bowl for $3. This is what it looked like after a good polish.”
“I bought the exact replica of a vintage Herman Miller Eames lounge chair. I had to work on it a bit, but it looks like new now.”
“This oven was so dirty that I had to use putty knives and razor blades instead of cleaning products to clean it.”
“I washed the rug that was left behind by the old homeowners. I had no idea the design was this intricate.”
“It was a real challenge to make this old toy look good again.”
“I’m over halfway done with restoring this leather sofa. The difference is pretty dramatic, right?”
What a professional restoration looks like:
“I still don’t believe that I managed to get the seats that clean.”
“I got this old retro table at a garage sale for $2. It looked like a real Frankenstein, made of cheap wood. I needed 2 days to bring it back to life.”

I like refurbishing old stuff :) I have made my granny's old bed frame into an amazing modern-vintage style bed for me and my husband. (with his help of course;) )
I love seeing how things can actually be improved! These are definitely mind-blowing
Ok the vintage mixer is to die for! I love baking and love my mixer, but this one is just too cute... and just for 5 dollar??? I mean ?
The vintage Herman Miller Eames lounge chair is all I need in my life! Whoever did the restoring work did an amazing job! ??
