When in search of a unique blend of old and new in the appearance of your furniture, you should consider the shabby chic furniture designs that are available on the market today. Designs such as these provide you the ambiance of bygone days through the distressed finishes that they contain. In the past, homeowners could only accomplish such a look with worn pieces of furniture that had endured quite a bit of use throughout the years, or that they distressed on their own, but today, they can find new pieces which offer the same feel and appearance.
