Sadly, this has been true for new upholstered furniture for some time now. Manufacturers are reporting the time from order to arrival is stretching to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.furnituretoday.com\/supply-chain\/ashley-ceo-expect-six-months-of-furniture-delays-from-asia\/\">4-6 months or more<\/a>. Which is, ya know, not ideal.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>But there\u2019s good news.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>There are so many reasons to go green these days. There\u2019s climate change itself, certainly. That\u2019s reason enough. But there are plenty of other pragmatic reasons that have little to do with the warming of the planet or the love of the environment. Reasons like getting around all those shipping and cost hassles and having the home you\u2019d love more quickly (and cheaply).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>But what are your options?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>There\u2019s Door #1: Order, cross your fingers, and then wait.

(Again,<strong> not <\/strong>ideal.)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>And then there\u2019s Door #3: Don\u2019t re-purchase at all. Just repurpose it. Now.

First, what it isn\u2019t. Re-purposing isn\u2019t you going to school in your older sibling\u2019s hand-me-down (and out-of-style) clothes to save a buck. As a matter of fact, the interior design crowd has also taken to referring to recycling or repurposing household items as \u201cupcycling.\u201d&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>What\u2019s <a href=\"https:\/\/youmatter.world\/en\/definition\/upcycling\/\">upcycling<\/a>? Basically, you build on the bones of what the piece was and turn it into something new \u2014 <em>something even better.<\/em> Maybe you decide to keep the best parts of a piece of furniture you love and use them as the foundation for reinventing that furniture <em>and<\/em> that space into something you\u2019ll love even more. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>What\u2019s more, many, if not most, upcycle or repurpose projects are totally achievable as DIY projects. So, even <em>less<\/em> waiting.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-we-ve-collected-some-ideas-from-clever-diyers-around-the-web-to-get-you-inspired-and-playing\">We\u2019ve collected some ideas from clever DIYers around the web to get you inspired and playing.&nbsp;<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><em>Bedroom<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We\u2019ll kick this off by thinking way outside the box\u2014or rather, <em>outside the drawers.<\/em> This one solves two problems:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Get rid of an old dresser that\u2019s just not your speed or decor anymore.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Add seating AND storage that\u2019s both functional and a fun conversation starter.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p>Upcycle your old dresser with <a href=\"https:\/\/familyfocusblog.com\/upcycle-old-dresser\/\">this handy guide<\/a> to transform it into a chair and ottoman.
