Why Pine Furniture Is Still the Best Choice for Restyling Any Room
Pine furniture has always been popular but lately, a rise in at-home do-it-yourself projects has breathed new life into the public’s interest in the wood. Here at Ericsson’s, we specialise in a wide range of pine products made to add a unique, signature style to your home or business. If you are keen on finding out more about why pine furniture is the right styling solution for your interior redesign project, keep reading.
It’s A Workable Natural Material
The coniferous wood we know as pine is a medium-weight softwood. It is easy to work with, which accounts for why it is often used in construction projects and furniture. It lends itself to intricate carving and shaping as it is so pliable and easily manipulated. As a material, it is known for its malleability and elasticity.
It’s Durable Too
Though called a soft wood, pine is rigid and firm, proving to be quite sturdy and stable. Furniture manufactured well from this wood usually lasts many years. It does not easily shrink or swell with moisture and humidity in the air. It is also somewhat resistant to shock and, therefore, not too susceptible to casual damage. It remains strong, even if its surface is somewhat prone to dents and scratches when handled inappropriately.
It’s Easier on the Wallet
Redoing your home or even replacing a few statement pieces, can cost a fortune. Most people steer clear of home-remodelling projects because they cannot afford it. Pine furniture, as excellent a material as it is, is also very affordable. The cost-friendly product comes from trees that grow quickly and produce wood that requires less care than many other types. Another penny-saving aspect of the wood is how easily it is repainted and converted into other forms of furniture, making it a fantastic material for upcycling.
It’s Versatile Enough for Any Home
Scandinavian interior design is making a comeback, this time embracing natural elements and emphasising these outdoor textures. Pine furniture, when well-crafted, contributes to a beautiful space and easily fits into any at-home aesthetic, whether it be vintage, rustic, country, or modern. Sanding the wood down is simple and staining it is just as easy due to its naturally pale finish. One can also repaint it as many times as needed to suit a room and maintain an up-to-date interior style. Left unstained, it will develop a beautiful, antique patina when allowed to age. It also plays well with any colour, pattern, and print, so you can make it work for you.
