Well done Christina! Standing ovation as usual! Ken
Many thanks 🙏 Ken for your support and thoughtful feedback 😉💙💙
Christina, I DID IT! And I also am "pretty delighted"
I have a sofa exactly like your chair...same feet same leather
I used the Fiebing's Chocolate 3 coats maybe 3.5 Then clear wax
I LOVE it!!♥️
Thank you so so much for this video❤️
That chair turned out fantastic! I loved the armoire in the raw sanded form
Thank you!!! Glad you liked it Sherry!! ❤️🎨🙏
Ohhhh that armoire. Ohhh just stunning. Love it ..you are l'artiste du monde.
Beautiful outcomes!!!! Love the look of the chair, fantastic.
I have the exact same armoire and am in the process of refinishing it in a blue/grey tone. It's a lovely piece-:)
As you were applying the stripper to the decorative part of the armoire, it looked beautiful with the black peeking out. I know you had another plan, but I thought that look was gorgeous.
Christina, I love the leather chair redo! I'm getting more inspired to redo my leather sofa and chair! Thanks so much! Love your tutorials!
OMG, the chair is beautiful, didn't know you could paint leather, thank you for sharing.

Nice results on both. The leather chair does have a cool bomber jacket look.

Hola Yolanda !! ¡¡¡Estoy tan feliz de escuchar eso !!! ¡Es un placer tener noticias tuyas todas las semanas! ¡¡¡Apreciado enormemente!!! ❤️🎨🙏
@@TheReclaimedHeirloom Cristina, el placer es mío, por que nos muestras unos tutoriales tan claros, y nos muestras tantas bellezas, y todos los detalles para que podamos hacerlo. Que te lo digo francamente tienes el éxito asegurado, trabajas muy bien, y te deseo lo mejor. Un saludo
So very beautiful Christina 💖 and best part, you now get to enjoy the fruits of your labour in your own home x
Thank you so much!! You are right this one is a keeper!!! I am slowly getting the reno completed and each project completion is a nice feeling! ❤️🙏🙏🎨
@@TheReclaimedHeirloom Nice Christina 🙂...it's so easy to get lost in the production line of painting, producing so much and very little for oneself. I'm currently working on a keeper myself in between shop stuff. I'm playing with a mint paper. Should be up on instagram soon 💖
Wow. Beautiful pieces.
Hi Wendy!!! I Glad you liked them See you next week!!❤️🎨🙏
love the hair color too!!
Thank you!!❤️🎨🙏
Sorry sorry - i loved the look after sanding - that was a great look!
Hi Rosalie! Thanks for the feedback! See you this Saturday! 🎨🙏❤️
I did prefer it when you stripped it, down just a coat of wax .... the Chair is superb just like to see in gentlemen's clubs. now I'm looking for an old leather chair !!
Hi Colin, glad you liked the chair it's a good technique to refinish a old leather chair. ❤️🎨🙏
wonderful job, love the leather chair it's called making a silk purse out of a sows ear. Both ate great.
Hi Harriette!! LOL good analogy!! See you next week!! ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️🎨🙏
Simply beautiful ❤️
Hi. New subscriber here! While I love what you did with both pieces, the armoire struck home with me. My husband and I just came across a gorgeous wooden front door that we had to take back to the wood and talk about crevices! We finally finished and it is so beautiful. Our $50. find was so worth the work. That was one reason for subscribing. You aren’t a afraid of hard work too. The other reason for subscribing is that you remind me of a true blue friend of mine named Lesa. She’s such a great person, well I know you are too. Can’t wait for more projects. 👍🏼🤍
Hi V!! Welcome to my channel!! Yes it feels so good with you put some elbow grease into a furniture piece and it turns out beautiful!! ❤️ This one was a challenge with all the detail but so worth it!!! If you have any questions please drop them here in the comments section. I have a new video out every Saturday and I hope you enjoy today's video!! ❤️🙏🎨
Beautiful leather chair, what a transformation, the dogs are so cute, I have seen them in previous videos. Your Victorian home is coming along beautifully, love your videos.
Oh my goodness! The leather chair looks like a million bucks! Incredible. You did an amazing job with all that sanding. A labor of love but so worth it. The armoire looks fabulous. I love using paint washes. Thanks for sharing all the steps for both of these projects. Peace to you this week. 🙏
Thank you so much Nadine 🙏 I really appreciate your feedback and support with your thoughtful words 🤗
It was tricky with all that sanding but it was a HUGE piece but something like a smaller dresser would go sooooo much quicker!
But I am in love 🥰 with the Armoire and with new makeovers going on and so much more to share with you it will definitely give a nice touch to the room transformation 😉❤️
All the DIY’s came out fabulous. I couldn’t find the leather paint. I would love to restore my leather sofa. Thanks in advanced ❤
That's wonderful. Great job. xx
Thank you so much for sharing washing techniques. Love it.❤🖌❤
Hey Belinda!!!! Thanks!! What did you think of the leather restoration? Is this something you want to see more of in the future? ❤️🎨🙏
@@TheReclaimedHeirloom oh yes, loved the chair. I've been wanting to try it myself. You made it look so easy.
LOVE the chair...so freaking beautiful....amazing....
The chair was a fun project!! I am thinking of finding another leather chair to try this technique again!! 😂😂🙏🎨❤️
@@TheReclaimedHeirloom it will be another fun project for you for sure. It has the bomber leather jacket vibe ...love it
Just started the video but I gotta tell you I love that blanket I want to cuddle up in it with my book
That was so nice of your husband to help you I bet your hands got numb sometimes I have to stop if my mom lets me use the sander because it vibrates so much and I can’t feel my hands and your husband should say hi since he helped on video but it’s ok if he is camera shy I get camera shy I was guest on another persons live before and I was nervous a little
Hi Gavin!! Glad you liked the blanket! I knitted that myself!!! It's easy to do! ❤️🎨🙏
Hi Gavin!! Yes it does get numb after a while with the sander, we usually take breaks just to give our hands a rest when sanding. LOL I will tell him to say hello one day on the camera!!! ❤️🎨🙏
Thank you for sharing all these fantastic projects! You are inspiring!
You are so welcome!❤️🎨🙏
Just gorgeous work! ♥️
Thank you so much! ❤️🎨🙏
Beautiful! 😀❤👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
Glad you like it! ❤️🎨🙏
So satisfying
Loved it, loved it!!! Thanks
This was so refreshing to watch and you voice is so soothing 🖤 thank you for this miracle 🖤
Hi Vilma! Thank you so much for your kind words! I so happy you enjoyed it! I have a new tutorial out today (Saturday) I hope you enjoy it! Let me know what you think! 🎨❤️🙏
Yay I'll check it for sure - turned on post notifications 🖤
Stunning
Both projects are total jaw droppers! Well done my friend, well done.
Hi Katie!! Thanks so much!! For this week's tutorial, I figured I would do something less taxing on my back to move and that I did not need to sand.....Lamps and vases!!! LOL ❤️🙏🎨❤️❤️❤️
Stunning!!
Came out really nice!
Thank you so much!! I have a new video out today, I hope you enjoy it!❤️🙏🎨
GORGEOUS 💗
my late dad used to get angry whenever we used to burnt that old furniture to get rid of it as we had no proper place to throw it he always used to say that things could be recycle but every passing year has made me more mature and thankful for what i have now i know the value of the things and relations and specially old things and memories related to them btw amazing transformation as always
Hi!! Thanks so much! I agree, I think now people are more conscious on upcycling furniture as the cost to by new is high but the quality is not always the best. This atleast helps save a few good pieces of furniture ending up in the landfill. I think more and more people are painting/restoring old pieces of furniture now and it's nice to see everyone's creations!! Thanks again for your support to my channel!!! See you next Saturday!!! ❤️🎨🙏
👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 excelentes trabajos Cristina !!! , el ropero me encanto!!!😍😍😍😍 felicidades ! Saludos y gracias por compartir tus proyectos y enseñarnos . Bendiciones 🤗😘🙏🏻🇲🇽
Hola Nerida¡¡ Muchas gracias por tus amables palabras!! La silla de cuero fue un nuevo experimento. ¡¡¡Espero que les haya gustado!!! ❤️🎨🙏
Amazing... wow!! Cheers from Montreal 😃😃
Hi Helen!!! Thank you!! Glad you enjoyed it!!! I have a new video posted right now, I hope you enjoy it!!! Hello from BC!!! ❤️❤️❤️❤️🎨🙏
Beautiful chair. I'm sure there were instructions on how to prep the leather to best accept this dye, using pure acetone cleans the surface, preps the leather and dries much faster than TSP and water. I got this tip from watching the Elegant Oxford channel. He dyes leather shoes all the time. I've done two old leather pillows and it worked very well.
Such beautifully amazing transformations. I would have never thought that chair had any life left and now it’s a classic that can be around for ages. The armoire is just as beautiful. I loved the stripped back looked too and then you made it even more beautiful. Thank you for sharing and inspiring us.
Hi KC! Thanks! I was just amazing how the leather chair has a new look after the restoration! The armoire I wanted the a natural look to complement my upcoming makeovers and I am so looking forward to sharing them with you all! ❤️🙏🎨
You did a very big job!It looks beautiful!
Thank you! 😊Thanks for watching and supporting my channel!
@@TheReclaimedHeirloom I’m putting you on my teacher as a small and grateful student 👩🎓!Thank you very much!
Absolutely beautiful! I just love the simplicity of washes! Such a gorgeous piece of furniture , Thank you Christina!
Hi Fran!!!! I am glad you liked it!! Yes sometimes the most simple effects can make a dramatic change to a piece! ❤️🎨🙏
The leather chair is beyond amazing. Not to say the armoire was any less mind boggling. Fantastic work!
Thank you very much! ❤️🎨🙏
came out wonderful... but you got a 10 plus star!
Hi Dee!!!! Thanks!!! See you next week in class!! 😂🎨🙏❤️
Brilliant like all your work
Hi Susan! Many thanks!! ❤️🎨🙏
I started transforming my leather couch yesterday. Thank you for the inspiration!
I've watched this video before and just love it. That armoire is one of my all time favorites.
OMG...I am so sorry I didn’t find you before I got rid of my button back leather sofa. I loved the sofa it was the colour that was out of style. Don’t kill me but I loved the back armoire, the armoire is gorgeous. Thank you....just saying I told my husband that you can change the colour of a leather sofa...I said I can watch for good finds of leather...he rolled his eyes....lol. Meaning that I collect too much already! Absolutely love your channel!
Hi Karen!!! Lol my husband liked the blue but he did not want to bring it up stairs to match in our room so a makeover was needed 😂 But, I do like the outcome it matches what I decorating now for this room. The leather chair turned out amazing if you ever find one try it!! Thank you so much for supporting my channel so greatly appreciated!!!! ❤️🎨🙏
These were so so so beautifully done. Even with the sound on the second half slight, I got what you attempted to show. Both look as though they had been around for a hundred years. Thank you . It was worth the sanding
Thank you so much! ❤️🎨🙏
Amazing look of the chair!!! Love your armoire, I have a dresser same style is still in the original color crieme…I tried to paint it white but couldn’t make nicer sooo…I stopped is st8ll patched up, but is beautiful, well I like it a lot. Thanks very much for your tutorials. Blessings always
,
Love the transformation of the Leather Chair!! The Armoire looks stunning. Your home is going to look amazing with all the new changes... and that wall from last week WOW!
Hi Cha!! Thanks! It's a work in progress and really happy to be able to share with you all the projects and hope that you all are inspired to do the same in your own homes!! See you next week!!❤️🙏🎨
Christina I went to Home Depot with all the info on what model sander I have and I had someone help me get a shop vac and a hose and a hock up too hock up to my sander. If the hock up to the sander and the hose does not fit you can cut it to fit. I wanted to see if I could sand inside without wood flying everywhere and it worked. I have some projects I want to do on my walls and bathroom that I can't take outside and also there are times when I am trying to finish a big project and the piece of furniture I am working on is too heavy too carry outside. It works just like you are hand sanding. The particles of wood do not fly in the air. Also the the shop vac is better then any vacuum cleaner I have ever used.lol! With the hose, hock up and shop vac I spent under $75.00. It has been a life changer because my craft room is not really close to an outside door and I hate dust period and if I miss something and can't hand sand it this is a great solution, plus it doesn't cost hundreds of dollars and again it prevents the wood particles from flying everywhere and its just like hand sanding. Its worth it!!!
The citrus stripper works good also and smells good none toxic
beautiful, both projects !!!
Hi Linda! Thank you!! I was so happy with both results!! Definitely another keeper for me ❤️🎨🙏
@@TheReclaimedHeirloom yeah they look really good, cupboard was quite a lot of prep work, but sooo nice now, leather chair is now exactly my style in this color, and these pale old leather chairs pop up a lot, I will keep my eye out for it, thanks for sharing, love your work
Again, thank you for a great tutorial. They both look stunning!
Thank you so much José 🙏 I really appreciate your thoughtful feedback 💙🎨
Amazing!
Thank you! Cheers! ❤️🎨🙏
Love watching you paint. Amazing results!! Thankyou for your time in showing lots of techniques 🌻
Hi Marilyn!! Thanks so much!! Glad you liked the 2 projects!!! ❤️🎨🙏
❤️ this! Will give it a try! Tammy
Genial trabajo,un saludo desde españa
Funny that dauber is exactly like ones that came in our shoe polish. On a different video I comment I lived in Vancouver BC as a kid. So we had several boots and shoes. Unlike when we moved to sunny Southern California when I was 9. Flip flops most of the year! My mother had us polishing our shoes which must have been leather. Always scuffed toes! I wonder if similar product. I remember the smell almost making me pass out! Saw a leather chair cheap, locally just today. Thanks for sharing these ideas!
Thank you so much for your kind feedback and comment 🙏
Yes you are exactly correct! The dauber is the same as shoe leather applicator!
The smell wasn’t too bad at all so maybe it’s made a few improvements lol 😂
Next time I see a beautiful leather coat and not sure about the colour , I will think🤔 twice now that I have tried this product ❤️
Thanks again for your kind comment 💙🎨
Wow 😳!!
Love the way the furniture turned out! Lots of patience and wonderful results! Bravo! 🥂
Hi CRP!!! Thanks so much! 😊Yes it tested my patience!!!! LOL ❤️🎨🙏
Love this look. Stunning piece.
Hi Sharon!! Glad you like it! It was both a fun project to do!! I have another tutorial out today, I hope you enjoy it!! ❤️🙏🎨
That piece is amazing and i loved both looks of it!💖💖
Hi Rebeca!! I loved how both turned out. I think I may try another leather chair in the future! ❤️🎨🙏
Great Job yet again. Nailed it!
Thank you Nancy!!! ❤️🎨🙏
I am so impressed!
Hi Becky!!! I am glad you liked it!!! It was both a fun project! The leather chair was a roadside find!!! I love how it turned out!!!! Thanks for your support to my channel! ❤️🎨🙏

OMG!!!! That armoire and the finish you did is to die for…stunning! The transformation of the leather chair is amazing. I’ve never heard of leather dyes. As always, thank you and stay safe!
HI Jeanne!! Neither did I until my husband found them! I am thinking of trying another leather chair in the future!!! ❤️🎨🙏
Congrats on 25K subscribers!!!! It’s wonderful how your husband is so helpful with your projects.
Outstanding, simply superb! What a fantastic result!
Hi Linda!!! Glad you enjoyed it!!! 🎨🙏❤️
Uauuuuu!!! Esta poltrona ficou maravilhosa 🤩
La butaca te quedó preciosa, pero el armario espectacular me encanta es una verdadera maravilla, intentaré hacerlo con unos muebles que tengo antiguos y espero que el resultado se parezca al de tu armario. Cuando lo haga te enviaré fotos, gracias por dejarnos ver tus trabajos son muy enriquecedores.
¡¡Gracias por sus amables palabras!! Sí, por favor envíame fotos, ¡me encantaría ver tus resultados finales! ❤️🎨🙏
Wow!! That chair turned out just perfect!🥰 definitely an amazing product!
That Armoire turned out wonderfully! Such a fresh bright look and I really love it against that beautiful green wall!!
Such a clean warm earthy look. I am so loving this home remodel, wish I was there to help. . . Lol🥰
Thank you Christina for introducing a new product and also thank you for sharing your amazing talent!!❤
You are the sweetest Nikki ! Thank you 🙏 so much for your kind feedback and support!
I want to share the entire process of putting together the entire room and then move into the studio/ kitchen area and share all new transformations and inspiration 🤗🎨
I felt it would be so helpful to see how just a few elements of change with in a room and add your newly recycled, restyled furniture adds personal character and charm to anyone’s space 🤩
Hope you are well and I can’t thank you enough for for your thoughtful words and support in all my projects and growing pains lol 😂
@@TheReclaimedHeirloom lol. . . Dont know about sweet, but I am opinionated and honest
@@TheReclaimedHeirloom can't wait to see what comes next
Precioso!! El sillón de cuero me ha encantado.
Wow, bellissimo, l'armadio é straordinario ❤❤❤
Grazie Adele !! Sono contento che ti sia piaciuto il guardaroba! È stata levigata molto ma ne è valsa la pena !!!!! ❤️🎨🙏
@@TheReclaimedHeirloom 😍😍sei fantastica a realizzare un capolavoro. Complimenti e continua così.
Awesome transformations on both pieces! Thank you so much for the leather tutorial. I didn't realize there are dyes for leather. WOW! I thought this would also be a great idea for faded leather car seats as well. Thanks again
Hi Lynn!! Same here! I did not know about this dye product! You can for sure use it on faded leather car seats as well! My husband was thinking the same thing! The product is linked in my amazon store for reference! ❤️🙏🎨
I loved the armoire natural before you painted it
thanks for the feedback! ❤️🎨🙏
Very nice
Thanks Tina!! ❤️🙏🎨
