Trash To Treasure #shorts #short
During world war 2 there was a national furniture shortage so what did people do after they lost all there belongings during the bombing?
This cabinet is made by utility. This was a furniture Advisory Committee that was set up in 1942 in order to insure that the available resources were used efficiently.
There was a lack of timber suitable for furniture making. This, combined with losses caused by bombing and the establishment of many new households, had created a severe furniture shortage
New furniture was rationed and was restricted to newlyweds and people who had been bombed. A friends grandparents had resently passed and he asked me to restore this peice. It was nice to bring life back to a vintage peice of furniture with so much history behind it.
