    How we lived with our furniture in the 1950's and 60's is not necessarily how we use furniture today. Follow along as I rejuvenate this tired walnut mcm buffet and bring it back to life so it can live again in 2024!

    Was not a huge fan of MCM furniture. Appreciated it, but not a fan. However, I've seen a few makeovers here on RUclips, but you, my friend, have sold me!!!. Your work is simply beautiful! I absolutely love the hutch. I don't don't know what I've been missing about this style of furniture. I'm looking forward to seeing more of your work!

      I think you either love or hate the green hardware! It is original to the piece. Definitely a statement! The wood grain on the walnut is beautiful it was just hiding under toners and old lacquer! 😂

      I came to say it looks like a gem in the handles. I can not think of a better use for turquoise. I had been thinking about the stone ring I got in Yellowstone National Park when I was ten years old. It is stolen a long time ago but we have an importers store in our tiny mountain town of Ce Elum that has turquoise. I don't want to wear it but if it is in furniture hardware cool. The town over has a local stone namesake Ellensburg Blues that would be great.
