Say hello to ReNew, the newest store in Liverpool’s Metquarter, specialising in restoring old and tired furniture! 🛋️😍

Not just that, but it also sells its own beautifully transformed chests, chairs, cabinets, mirrors and more. The team will even collect it from you and, when it’s ready, drop it back off FOR FREE!

ReNew opened in Metquarter in October last year, and since then it’s been a go-to for homeowners wanting to try out new trends, revamp their favourite spaces, and save fabulous furniture that’s just a bit tired from the skip.
