This is one of the kindest comments I have ever read on a video. So my guess is the people in your world kevinwentworth, are blessed and thankful to have you in their lives. And…I totally agree with you regarding our beloved “teacher.”
As a teacher ,retired after several operations and who had redone several houses, and furniture 'fixings', I very much appreciate your teaching and your journey. Thank you and for this commenter. We agree totally. Historic Pennsylvania says hello.
You have come a long way women, I remember some of your old posts like the day you sold the piece that paid off your student loan and to many others to mention. I’m sure you have had some hard times this year but I know you parents have been really supportive all the way. 2025 is a new start and I know you will continue to go up.
Oh my, I love the way it turned out. Yes the new hardware helped along with the color. ❤❤
I am Lorraine Sutton from Corning New York I don't have cable TV I just have the antenna I watch you on my cell phone one day you popped up on there after that I Google you and you come right up and I watch your videos they are wonderful excellent videos I love you and I like listening to your soft warm voice you're very beautiful looking to look at you are still a teacher you're teaching us how to do furniture the right way which is an excellent wonderful thing to do
Hi Lauren from a very very cold Glasgow across the pond ( probably frozen) in Scotland, I loved watching you hand paint again, Santa brought me a sprayer which I will get around to using soon, maybe !!!!!..I love my Zebra brushes along with my Paint Couture brush. Another beautiful piece, I’ve learned so much from you and hopefully my wee business will come together this year, thank you so much x Keep painting ❤️🏴
Beautiful! I grew up in the 50’s & 60’s so remember these dressers.🥰🇨🇦
My parents had a nearly identical bedroom set-dresser, tallboy, and bookcase headboard. I always loved that hardware😢. Your pieces always look so good. Your integrity and attention to detail are second to none!
My parents had that set - the tall dresser, low dresser with attached mirror and two night stands. I painted them for my mom about 8 years ago with Annie Sloan chalk paint and wax (custom mixed a dark blue for her). Now that you’ve done this, I’m inspired to redo and change the hardware. It looks awesome. Thank you for your great work!!
Beautiful as always. I've watched you since the beginning. Even remember when you videoed your last day as a teacher electing to pivot your career to furniture refinishing. Keep up the good work. Someone will be a fortunate recipient of this piece. Happy 2025!
Adding the hardware to this dresser is like accessorizing a little black dress.
I love the hardware and the finished piece looks amazing.
Thank you so much! I really love the new hardware too!
Lovely piece! The hardware made it exceptional
I truly look forward to your videos. I love that you take unwanted furniture and work on them to make them beautiful and desirable again in the public's eye, eliminating waste. Your work is beautiful.
OMG that is so gorgeous. I can just imagine that in someone’s entryway. How stunning would that be for storage of hats, gloves and winter scarves? Show stopper. I love it.❤
I inherited my parents bedroom set from 1960. It's also that blonde mid-century Style. I very carefully stripped it down and stained it dark walnut and it is beautiful. You'd never know it was that horrible blonde wood
Wow! Simply stunning. The hardware you selected for this piece is perfection. Great tutorial!
I’m glad you liked the hardware! I love how it updated the piece.
It might be just me, but I really liked the old hardware that to me said MCM. I like that era in furniture still in certain pieces but to each their own! Still a beautiful job and so informative.
Beautiful! I think that the really dark blues are my favorite colors.
I'm loving the dark blues too!
I recall you saying you have training in early childhood education, and that might have a lot to do with why I like your videos: my wife says I’m “such a child” so that’s probably why your video style is so helpful to me! 😅😅😅
The hardware is the bomb! Great flip, Lauren. I love this one
Thank you so much! I love the new hardware too!
Beautiful flip, Lauren!
I wasn't really liking the center of the drawers and thought you might take them off BUT you know best and it turned out awesome. I love the gold pulls. I also like the tricks your videographer is using. Bravo!
thanks! fluting/texture is very in right now so I decided to keep the design!
I video all my projects and my editor, Harrison, jazzes them up! he’s a wizard!!
That is stunning! I love it and your channel! 💕
This is my first time watching your channel, and the first video I've watched. I'm totally inspired! I've got so many pieces from my parents passing, and I think I'm excited to transform them to sell or to keep. I am excited to check put all your other videos, thank you!
Fantastic results and the hardware definitely made it pop ❤
Wow Lauren...this piece looks brand new. Fantastic job!!! Wishing joy, peace, & prosperity in 2025 to you. ❤
Looks great Lauren! Hope 2025 is a wonderful year for you
I appreciate the beginner-friendly tips. I can’t set up for a sprayer right now, so brushing tips are very helpful. That hardware looks amazing on the finished piece! Thank you! ❤
What a beautiful flip and modernized! I really like the hardware!
I agree! The hardware was the perfect finishing touch.
Perfect choice of hardware for the style/color of furniture.
Fantastic job Lauren! Love your color and harware choices--just amazing!!
Great color and the hardware is stunning! Another beautiful job.
Thanks, I really love how the hardware turned out!

Sleek and modern - love it 😊
Me pressing like at the beginning of the video because I know I'm gonna enjoy every minute of it. So informative. Love you Lauren and your amazing skills. Love from South Africa ❤
I love it this flip! What a beautiful color and hardware combo. I'm trying to build some courage to get started, even if just for fun. You sure make the process very simple and easy. Thanks girlie!
Great upgrade. It will sell quickly! 👍
Thank you! I hope so!
I think my mom had a set with that wood when I was a kid. It looks very familiar. 😊
This is my absolute favorite piece. So gorgeous!
Lauren, this turned out beautifully! You are starting out 2025 oh a high note. ❤❤❤❤
Stunning! The hardware has the reminder of a library.
I absolutely love the results. It is truly amazing what you can do with your talents. Cheers from the east coast of Canada. 🇨🇦
I have been with you from the beginning!
Very pretty! ❤❤
It’s beautiful and you’re a fantastic teacher.
Love the more modern look! Great work!!
Thank you! I'm glad you liked it!
Really a beautiful piece.
Thank you for this beginner lesson. So helpful for ones doing an at home DIY.
So love the color choice❤❤❤. The hardware goes so beautifully with the lines on this piece. Great job and excellent video!!!
Wow, what a fabulous transformation! You are so right about the hardware!
That looks SO GOOD!
thank you!
I have some of that in my house and need to get around to re-doing them.
Absolutely Stunning ...the color as well the hardware❤
Absolutely beautiful!!!!
Thanks so much!
and Mrs T Yet another great makeover well done
That hardware is everything! Really nice transformation!!
Looks great! I have and redid the nightstands that match this, and would love to find the rest of the set to make match! Mine were the mahogony version. I painted the sides dark blue and used Retique It to make the centers, tops and bases blonde. I kept the orginal hardware and bought them both for $10! They needed a fair amount of love but they're so solid! Kent Coffey Titan I believe is the name
I love watching your videos. You do amazing job on all of your furniture flips. Thank you for sharing. God bless.
Great results-I love the choices you made.
Good job! Looks great. Happy New Year! Thanks!
A+ teacher. So handsome, a gentleman or young professional guy would love this

Really sophisticated ~ I want it! ♥️
Looks fantastic! If you haven’t sold the matching dresser paint it to match this one and use the same hardware and sell as a set.

Just beautiful 🎉🎉🎉
Amazing!!!!!❤❤❤❤❤
Would love to see a piece in this style done in a high-gloss bold colour like red or blue!
Gorgeous!
🎉Happy NEW Year🎉
Can you please link to the hardware you used? I love it! ❤
Oh I just LOVE the outcome ❤❤❤... Did you only put 1 coat of topcoat on this piece?.. Love love love
Beautiful!!
Thank you Lauren for that great back to basic paint refinishing. Happy 2025!!
Perfect hardware!!!
Another great project!!💜
Thank you! I'm glad you enjoyed it!
Turned out gorga ❤❤❤
Very pretty color. While watching this on my Samsung TV the dresser looked such a pretty muted navy in your display. When seeing it while u were sitting next to it looked dark gray. It looked nice. Just thought that was interesting.
I was wondering why you don’t seem to use a little sponge roller. A house painter friend of mine suggested it do so, which I did and the paint looked so smooth. My son likes it so much he used my leftover paint painting a dining table given to him by a friend and it turned out really nice too. So smooth. I haven’t done much refinishing. So I was just wondering.
It’s beautiful
Beautiful job ❤
Thanks!
Thanks for your videos!
Did you make any repairs to the inside of the cabinet? It looked damaged when you removed the drawers. Nice job.
Love it!
I know its a matter of personal taste, but I loved the before look.
Beautiful
Question: what about the backside of the hardware holes? Do they need filling?
the screw is in the back
some of the bondo seeps through plugging the entire hole but you dont see the backside of the drawer so nbd!
@ I was just wondering since this hardware is differently shaped than the old stuff
@ yep! typically that’s what happens when the old hardware is removed and holes filled in 😊
I like it😊
Very pretty Lauren! Did you choose a chalk paint because of the slight shine of this piece? Also, how many coats of that topcoat did you do?
