Has anyone here had any furniture refinished by a professional and felt it was worth the cost?
I have a number of pieces of Mid Century Modern (such a nice way to say crap from the '50's) and--seeing that they are in great shape still--thought I might have a professional sand them down and refinish them. I have a bedroom suite and a table I'd like redone. Amazingly, during that period of time they used real wood still. So, they were built to last and have good bones to them.
So, any experience having furniture re-done by a pro? Any advice?
