    Just a helpful tip, when you use a circular saw to cut, you could put masking tape over your line (put your marks on top of the tape) and then cut to help keep the board from splintering/chipping out. might save you some time and dealing with putty and additional sanding

    • @curiouscat3384
      @curiouscat3384 Год назад +1

      Good tip and also, use a "Trim" blade with 96 teeth versus the common 40-60 tooth blades. A bit of a pain to change it out every time but save it just for those delicate jobs - they're not cheap :)

      Can you enlighten us regarding your paint sprayer… looks like a practical set up and finish is amazing.. Awesome work!

    I recently flipped a dresser with two nightstands with all new bases! They’re so beautiful! Thanks for giving us a tutorial for them! Beautiful flip!

  • @nica.rivera
    @nica.rivera 3 года назад +7

    I like how you sand between paint coats, that is the trick to give it a nice professional finish.

  • @leathelandlady

    I can't believe it took you only 5 hours. You've definitely gotten it down to both art and a science! Great job!

  • @carronalee
    @carronalee 3 года назад +2

    ❤️❤️Bravo!! Thanks for answering all these little (but very important) money & time questions that many other upcyclers fail to mention. Your skills are amazing. I love the fact that there’s one less piece of furniture wasted in our over-polluted world…..and it’s such a classic, gorgeous design that it will maybe have another 50 years on the planet before someone decides to (hopefully) mend it and upcycle again.

  • @theresedignard4267
    @theresedignard4267 3 года назад

    Cannot believe people come to do thumbs down. They also rarely are brave enough to say why. Bad people find their way to good videos. If only we could ban them from the Net. Trolls should be banned for life. This is a great video. Keep up the great sharing of your projects. There are far more good appreciative people out here.

  • @lynnharrell9598
    @lynnharrell9598 3 года назад +4

    Great flip. Your “visions” of what these pieces can be is very creative. The video quilt is excellent. And I like the choice of music too. 😀

  • @mastiffmom2592
    @mastiffmom2592 3 года назад +2

    When I saw that color I wasn’t impressed. When I saw the reveal… my jaw dropped! It’s absolutely stunning. I’m only working on my 2nd project, matching end tables. I hope I become more efficient in every way. Right now it feels like I’m making every mistake there is. Watching you really inspires me to get back to work.
    Thanks for sharing 💕

    • @diywife
      @diywife  3 года назад +1

      That’s exactly how it goes starting out! And I still have those pieces where things just go wrong and it takes way longer than it should have 😅

    • @diywife

    Painters tape on that line before you cut the bottom might have helped some with chipping. I love watching you spray. Looking forward to unboxing my sprayer to try a clear coat on a little piece for my workshop.

    Wow, what an update!! The only thing that I may have changed was to have the new base be the same paint color rather than wood stain, since the stain wasn't exactly the same as the drawers and it would have made the stained drawers really pop. Just a thought haha maybe for another flip.
