    Wow! That looks incredible! Great job. Very beachy looking which is what I'm wanting. I wish ikea made this is natural wood! They make the Tarva dresser in natural wood but it's never in stock, the quality isn't as high, and it isn't as large as this one. I love!!

    Hey girl, this looks great! Just a tip the lower the number on your sandpaper the rougher it is and the faster it strips your finish. 240 is a fine grit and is designed to smooth out the surface before you stain or paint it. Something like a 60 grit would've stripped that paint and previous finish quickly. But overall you did great! Keep doing you!

      @ARMooney1244 2 года назад +1

      @@ffta2esper No, Using stripper makes sense if you are doing a piece with veneer as it is quite thin and you don't want to sand through it, however if you know it is solid wood and you just want to get through the old finish quickly you can just use 60 grit sandpaper, just make sure you then work your way up through the grits, i.e 60, 80, 100, 180, 240 to ensure you get it nice and smooth without any scratches or swirls the heavier grits can produce

    @lluvialastra8087 3 года назад +1

    You’re a trooper! You didn’t give up good job. Some tips as you learned stain is applied with a rag apply as needed as you go and wipe good. Always wear protective gear stripping chemicals have a strong odor and may be harmful is breathed for long periods in a non ventilated area. Also furniture is stripped only if it’s worth the time and money bc as you learned stripping furniture is extremely time consuming and tedious. Therefore, for a piece like this unless you really truly love it, it’s not recommended. For those wanting to do this just buy a similar version at ikea (they do have them) with no color and then stain, they can turn out very beautiful.

      true ! Their Tarva line is unfinished pine wood (but very limited!) - but I am always left wondering why IKEA does not sell more unfinished versions of their furniture line of products - the cheap lacquer / varnish they put on some of their Hemnes bookcases for example, that is just ugly, when you compare with a richer wood colour that you can stain to your liking. I wish they did offer more 'natural wood' options ...

    I‘ve done the same thing with our dresser and I must say 2 things: 1. it doesn’t have dark spots from paint like yours, so you might have to sand it more properly, and 2. though the dresser is now looking beyond beautiful, I truly regret doing this hell of a job and it’s a pity people promote all this ikea makeover stuff. Next time I‘d rather save my highly paid time and just buy one from a high quality furniture retailer. This is my personal choice, other people should feel free doing what they want.

      The Billy bookshelves are made with particleboard. Therefore, they cannot be sanded/or stripped. I have these shelves too so I googled them and found some great hack ideas. Peek and stuck wallpaper can change the look, or if it’s a natural feel you’re after you could try adding rectangular wicker baskets. Maybe one of these ideas will work for you.

      Actually I saved quite a lot, it looks almost like the one I wanted from Potterybarn wich was over a 1000 dollars so yeah definitely worth it for the look I wanted. Could you find a $200 dresser sure! but none of them were the ones I wanted.
