If anyone , ever , complains about the cost of re furbished furniture, they REALLY need to watch this video and THEN they will appreciate the immense and tedious work that is involved in restoring it .
YES.
You are so right. I never knew how much they do. Thanks for bringing it to everyone's attention.
You are quite right, and bear in mind she didn't bother filming the multiple layers of sanding...
some cases are pretty arduous, like with a lot of paint and all dinged up.
Or refinishing hardwood floors!!! I'll NEVER do that again...
This may sound crazy but you can almost hear the cabinet crying too. "Thank you for releasing me from all the paint!" You are an artist.
😅
My hats off to you young lady. True craftsmanship is hard to come by today. I truly understand the painstaking detail your trying to achieve. I spent 42 years in the antique and classic car restoration business. At one point in my career I worked for rolls Royce and Bentley and had my hands on many a fine and beautiful pieces. Every auto I looked at had history and beauty in my eyesight. And I did Everything to bring it back to its former glory and more. And I loved every moment of it loved to go to work and hated to leave, always thought I needed to do more that day, Anyway I can sense that in you and the ease and confidence you show in your vid’s. Keep up the fine work young girl.
Thanks so much Jimmy, I know the feeling your talking about.
Excellent work. My only concern when I saw this video was the lack of protection on your hands when you were stripping the piece and no mask when you were spray painting it. I know when one is so young one believes they are invulnerable: I thought so too when I used to work with the insane chemicals involved in printmaking and photography. Just be aware that your skin absorbs these chemicals and that your lungs are breathing them in.
I agree! I spent 28 years working outside as a painting contractor 6 days a week non-stop. I am now 70 and have too many health issues. Pls pls take care. 😔
The 3M face mask with the back waist filtration is the way to go, in addition to cross ventilation.
It's marvelous to watch an expert restore a nice piece of furniture. I'm glad to see a young person who has achieved master craftsperson status. Well done, Trena!
All the work was done by a man.
@@yessanknow302 All work you couldn't do.
@@yessanknow302 she’s the best looking man I’ve ever seen!
In this video, all the work was done by Trena. Her work improved upon the work of past masters. It's not a contest.
There is something very special when an old or neglected piece is brought back to elegance.
yes! It speaks to a time when people didn't throw away a damaged thing, or relationship. We use to fix the broken, correct mistakes, maintained them regularly, and they lasted for decade after decade. Homes, furniture, and marriages - still beautiful at a ripe age! That's happiness. One Love Y'all!
Trivia tidbit: aligning the screw slots is called “clocking”. Beautiful results in the finished secretary.
Thanks for that nugget of information. Everything about this restoration was a paean to a vanishing art. It's lovely to have the detail you added. 🙏
My woodwork teacher 45 years ago referred to "dressing" the screws so they all face the same way..... something I've never forgot. You do amazing work, lovely video.
Thankyou!
I restore old cars and I've also had people who were in their 60's and 70's bring in a 1940's or similar car and want it restored to the factory condition of their first car and when they see it they cried as well. Very satisfying to watch someone who knows what they are doing as in this video.
@Cee Jay I agree many older cars are beauties.
Please wear protection for your lungs so that the world can benefit longer from your craftsmanship.
A respirator is a must have when dealing with harsh chemical vapors and aerosols.
Yeah so that you can reach a million subscribers with good health 👌
Absolutely, it only takes a moment to put on a proper mask capable of dealing with those fumes. The alternative isn't pleasant.
If you're going to use the clickbait customer cried when they saw this one maybe you should show the customer crying
I have sleep with oxygen now from breathing in toxic vapors from refinishing for years.
I compliment you on this restoration. My mother and father bought this same secretary in 1950 and it was new. They did not get the top piece. The felts were green, the metal bracket to pull out the end supports were not plain.The were coated with a stain that made them blend with the interior. It had the same drawer pulls, and they loved it.They were farmers and this item provided all their storage of financial records. The color finish was more red and was labeled "cherry mahogany". This restoration brought back many wonderful memories, Thank You, Ron
Thanks Ron🥰
Trena after watching several dozen of your projects and now can easily spot the professionals from the amateurs. The difference is detailed workmanship! You’re great at what you do😆👏🍾👍🏼👌🏽✅
I am absolutely blown away Trena! Your attention to detail right down to grain matching and feathering color to match is impressive. It's very obvious you love what you do and transform that love into your work. Excellent job!!! Best I have ever seen!!!
How refreshing to see a restoration rather than a cover-up paint job. I'm impressed by your attention to detail. Well done.
My thoughts exactly, I hate to see beautiful furniture like this being painted over.
@@snipsnap9995 I agree
I agree

Another great restoration show to watch. Thanks, and you have many more years to practice your craft. What remains a mystery is why people did such a through job of messing the piece up in the first place? A lot of effort went into those crappy paint jobs.
You popped up & I was mesmerized & couldn’t stop watching- even though it’s now early am and eyelids are scratchy & dropping! I love old furniture, buy too many pieces & always think I’ll do the same as you. Big difference is your fab workshop, tools & right materials. AND more importantly, you’ve got methodical patience and talent! Transformation is perfect, thx for great vid! Wait, one more thing…thanks for your comments that you’ll wear a ventilator in the future! Them is some pretty deathly chems, big poison for not only lungs, but your brain too! Gloves also- chems will get in your blood through your skin…which is a humans biggest organ! Yikes!
Thankyou for watching! Actually RUclips viewers have helped me be more diligent with the mask. It’s always good to be held accountable.
Wow! Wow! Wow! What a difference and so well done. Love the light sheen too.
Only God knows why this video popped up in my feed.
But apart from that, you really did a tremendous job cleaning this piece of furniture up. I can't even guess how many hours you must have put into this work, but it really struck me how meticulously you gave every single part your attention. Just impressive! I guess you must be built up of patience ;o)
Absolutely perfect outcome!
I thought I watch the start how it looks before and than skip to see the end product; watched it all trough till the end, nice workmanship.
The customer cried..... I'd still be crying if I had to restore that thing. Although you can understand their emotion, this restoration was really first rate, and the selective cleaning/polishing on the brasses looked perfect. Thanks for sharing.
Trena, you are AMAZING. You are passionate, persistent, hard working, and full of surpises. One cannot be amazed to see the beauty of you work, taking into account the basic tools you use. Like they say, "It's not the plane...it's the pilot!" 😂😉
Thank you so much!
I appreciate the ability to color match the different wood types. So many so called “craftsman” out there could learn a lot from you. Including myself! Really enjoyed watching the video.
Thanks!
I am impressed!
Everyone who paints old furniture that was in good condition first, should have to watch this.
When I was in my teens in the 60's, I refinished a dining room table and chairs for my parents ( it was an unfinished set, could not afford a finished set at the time). One table, 4 leaves,and 6 Duxbury chairs (with all those spindles!) But when I was sanding between coats of stain and semi gloss finish (used Minwax Early American)I liked to put a nylon stocking over my hand, close my eyes, and run my hand over the area to see if it was nice and smooth!! Found every little burr and was able to get it glass smooth!! It turned out beautiful and everyone thought they bought it already finished!! Used it many years, then I used it and then sold it to a friend years later! I loved doing it! Your work is very meticulous and glad to see natural wood rather than painted wood! If wood was meant to be painted, in my opinion, God would have them growing in colors in nature!! God Bless you and your work!
"glad to see natural wood rather than painted wood!"
Stained wood is the same as painted wood in my opinion, just used a thinner paint that permeates and changes the original colour therefore is not "Natural".
God does have them growing in colors all over nature. It is the misguided, impaired judgement in human nature that tries to cover up Gods masterful designs with paint.
Good for you. Refinishing is a fine art. It takes so much patience and skill.
Nylon sock ! Great tip ! Thanks
That method is called the Hanes Test! Often used on specialized coatings.
Work like this IS an art. People don't appreciate the patience and attention to detail it takes. Bless you for keeping this artistry alive. I've tried restoring some old pieces and I have fail miserably. I just don't have the temperament for doing this kind of work. Ask me tear a house down and frame up a new one, and I'm your man but please don't ask me to do detailed work. lol Thanks for the great video. I enjoyed it.
Bravo, well put.
WOW! PRO! Good job. I bet the customer is pleeeeeeased!
The most heinous act anyone can do with antique woodworking is paint it. Those carpenters, woodworkers, woodcarvers had it all "lined up" just right to make the grain tell a story without words while making the medium of their artistic expression benefit as best as possible with what they had to use as a canvas to last for others to enjoy and use. Good job Ma'am.
Quite a lot of French antique furniture was originally painted before it left the workshop, lots of gold etc
I like to think that paint might have kept a piece from going to the dump before and then it was rescued😊
Agree that some pieces should never be painted. Have a beautiful black walnut table and a golden oak parlour set that should never be painted. But most furniture is not even wood anymore
Bare wood has not always been considered beautiful in America. Paint for some pieces would be more authentic.
@@robertawills7219 i chase wooden furniture because it's usually fixable and if get bored... Yes painted but I never do.
It's funny that it's either or.. peoole being trendy with Ikea or something and think wooden ones are old, unfashionable and shit. Then there is us, who have bit insane look in our eyes when we see wooden table/cabinet/bench for sale for 20-30€.
"Unfortunately" I live in area (my country) that is known for its woodwork and carpenters and people still are fond of that type of furniture so I have to make my finds when I am some place else (do you know how hard it's bring new furniture pieces at home without your husband noticing?)
My heart was crying when we were emptying relative's apartment in other side of the country and I could not fit this old birch dresser in my car (because it already had chair from 50s and other stuff).
It was eventually donated to shelter and they give it it someone who is either young parent moving to first apt (young parents who may struggle with young family) or someone who has escaped abusive relationship and is starting over ((because often they cannot take anything with them, they won't even have money)
Hate when beautiful woods are painted over. So pleased to see they can be restored masterfully - by a master artisan!
I guess the customers must have cried three times: first when they obtained, bought or inherited the piece, just seeing the paint "job" vandalism, which looked horrible. Then when you gave them a price quote for the restoration (just kidding, I hope you got what you deserved), and finally seeing the result. It was a hypnotizing watch, and seeing the final outcome gave me a warm feeling inside.
Only fly in the ointment: others have mentioned it, even if you paint booth is ventilated, you probably should use respiratory protection when working with aerosols or solvents. My personal rule is "if you can smell it, it's probably dangerous".
But what you do is really art, of the most selfless kind, as it ends up invisible because it is intended to show the beauty of the original work. From a viewer in Denmark: Well done!
Yes, I cringed to see her painting without a mask, and using some of those chemicals without gloves.
@@scotth6814 From other videos I've seen, she seems to have taken the advice and uses appropriate protection gear.
@@scotth6814 If the room is ventilated and fresh air is circulating around the room gloves and a mask is not necessary. I hear a fan running in the background. Also I have never used any cleaning chemicals with gloves on all my life.
@@MrWolfSnack extra protection doesn’t hurt but it surely helps.
@@martaalvarado4631 If your skin is sensitive to chemicals or the fumes are volatile, sure. But I don't because it's more of a hindrance and they just tear anyway.
*IT'S HARD TO BELIEVE PEOPLE WOULD PAINT SUCH A WORK OF ART, BUT YOU'VE DONE WONDERS TO THIS BEAUTIFUL MADDOX SECRETARY THAT IS JUST LIKE NEW...WOW, JUST BEAUTIFUL!!* *WE APPRECIATE YOU SHARING YOUR INCREDIBLE WORK THAT ONLY A TRUE CRAFTSMAN COULD DO...THANK YOU SO VERY MUCH!!*
How refreshing to see someone take the time and love for a piece of beautiful furniture to refinish it rather than slap paint on it and sand the edges! This is truly stunning. Thank you.
Thanks for appreciating the job!
I would have liked to see the new owners’ faces. You did an awesome job that any professional would be proud of. Bravo! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👍🏻
Well,Well, you definitely nailed this one,how you managed it only him up above knows,Lassie you do you manage you're working day,hope you have sufficient breaks and rest, remember even engines need a rest,you're father must be so proud of you,❤️🏴🇬🇧
There is a lot of painted furniture out there that needs to be refinished like this one.Great job!
What a beautiful job. I'm certified in paint, auto body and glass.
I know how many hours and materials go into a restore like that.
You have very talented hands and your attention to detail is remarkable.
The aligned screw heads took the cake. I've done that for years on many projects.
Good on you.
Another AMAZING JOB Trena !! Looks Beautiful! Your Talent is beyond Magical!! Your Father taught you Well !!
Thanks Doug!
Restoration videos such as this is what I like to watch, You have done a very good job.
Wow!, just wow! Absolutely rewarding!...what an ART!...craftsmanship....I love it!
Very nice job young lady. I am a retired Master Restorer with more than 40 years of restoration experience. It's nice to see there are still young people pursuing a career as you have. There are things that I would do a little differently, but it's the end result that counts. I was a product of my environment and the products that were available to me, hence the different style. I was really happy to see you using Mohawk products. They and Star products were my choice as well. All the best to you, keep up the good work. I am a fan.
Holy moly!! You are one brave girl to take on a piece like that. And the result ..... just wow!
Thanks for taking us along on the journey.
"Beautiful" doesn't even begin to cover it. The legs are amazing and I love how you carefully touch them up. And those lovely drawers you can see with the top lowered. Amazing, truly.
And, she does a very good job at an artistic restoration.
I find part of the appeal of watching antique pieces being restored, is the ways both good and bad, somebody changes a piece of furniture. Studying their methods both good and bad. Thanks for the information. Really enjoy your work.
Thanks for watching!
I'm an old furniture maker and I think your work is outstanding! I don't understand why people cover beautiful wood with paint. I have a Maddox secretary desk like this one except a flat front. I have had it since 1948 and am going to do the same as you did. THe hardware soetimes can get stained by some strippers, I put them in an old crock pot and heat them for a few hours then shock them with ice water, this breaks the bond of the paint without any chance to stain. I follow up with FLITZ paste on a toothpaste brush, no scratches and looks beautiful.
Nice
They do it because they don't know any better.
@@amitisshahbanu5642 Some people think a painted surface looks better than natural wood. I shake my head at them...lol
I love painted furniture. Of course this antique is better restored to original finish. Scandinavians like painted furniture because they live in areas that have little sunlight in the winter so painting their furniture lifts the spirit. I dislike dark heavy furniture as a rule and also like limed or natural blond toned floors and furniture.
Congrats Trena, you did a marvelous job. One point,however, for your own safety please,...please ALWAYS wear a mask when you spray, your lungs are not designed to breath any chemical fumes. Your lungs will thank you when you are 40 and over..
Beautiful job! I would really be proud to own this piece. Would have loved to see the customers face when you showed her this! Keep it up!
I think my grandparents had a writing desk just like this one. You did a beautiful job restoring it!
In the 70's my sister ruined most my parents furniture with blue paint and white wash kits she bought. My brother has the secretary desk she didn't get to!
Great work and will enjoy watching more!
You are a very hard working and meticulous such patience.
Absolutely stunning finish! Just can't understand why anyone would want to paint such a lovely piece of furniture but you brought it back to life.
Beautiful finished product! Question: what about wearing a respirator to protect your lungs????🤔😊
That also crossed my mind.
I Absolutely agree. I’ll smarten up everyone. I promise.
I was thinking the same thing... protect those lungs!! You are so talented.
How about gloves and glasses too?
@@johnsfurniturerepair Looks amazing🤩
You need to protect your airways immediately! You need your own room with an extraction system and you have to wear a special mask. This is really important please do it. 🙏
What a meticulous, detailed, and artistic job you did. It's wonderful how you brought this piece back to its former glory.
Thankyou!
Omg! The shade to the painter of it! "Very cakey " i'm so here for it! Luv it!😅
WOW you are so professional. I am so impressed by the way you don't take short cuts. You take everything apart and clean it and paint it and put it all back together again. I love to watch your show!
Thank you! 😊
Well done young lady!! What a beautiful restoration done with a lot of patience and persistence. Your love for what you do is clearly evident.
What a fantastic job... Could only imagine the amount of time that we didn't see the work being done.
What did this poor cabinet ever do to deserve this? I love how you brought it back
WOW!!!! Your expertise and craftsmanship brought this beauty back. Thankyou,
This Secretary desk is identical to my mother's. It was (50's decor) mahogany stained with a gloss finish. Your restoration brought back memories. Your attention to detail is a sign of true craftsmanship. Very entertaining video. Thank you for sharing.
My grandmother had a similar secretary desk in her home, it was her pride and joy. So many childhood memories came flooding back to me as you brought this desk back to its original beauty. Our family treasure thankfully lives now in my cousins home. Such beautiful work and attention to detail, I'm sure the owner is well pleased! 😊
Beautiful restore. Such a pleasure to watch a true craftsman at work!
Another wonderful restoration. Trena just "has it". More to see and will I ever catch up.
I had a copy of one of those for many years. I gave it to my mother in law and she had it refinished.
Never going to understand why anyone would slap paint on an antique as though it would be an improvement. So much history and value is lost to paint. So much satisfaction watching these amazing restorations and seeing the beauty restored. Love this!
The painter crowd seem almost fanatical. They are evangicals for paint, "I'm going to paint this no matter what you say, it's what I do"
It seems that there was a time that painted wood was preferred and considered an improvement. Don't understand why but that's the history of changing tastes.
So much beautiful craftsmanship and wood grain is hidden under layers of paint or beaten up to be distressed. I am never going to grasp the logic behind that.
V
@@katv1195 yes and many pieces were painted dark green which some restorers say, helped preserve the wood. Interesting to know about your clock though. I never knew that they painted things black after her death.
Beautiful. My house is furnished with pieces that were "refinished" with paint . I bought them cheaply, refinished them properly and now have nice things. I really detest paint!
Same I don't understand why everyone paints old furniture.
@@Momentaryghost .... I have seen many TikTok people paint old furniture. I cringe and skip to another video. I guess there will always be people painting perfectly beautiful wood pieces, including kitchen cabinets.
I have always love stripping down furniture, I have learned a few things from you thank you. You and your dad do the best job on the internet. I don't blame the customer for crying I would have too.
You did a wonderful job! Please wear a mask to protect yourself from the chemicals!
You have amazing patience, persistence and professional skill. Amazingly beautiful job!
Hi Bill. I'd like to let the people that are reading the comments on this beautiful restoration know that you, yourself are a master craftsman and build some fine pieces from raw lumber.
@@brettdrought6181
Thank you, Brett! Interestingly, much of what I have learned and applied to my love of the craft has come from
other generous master craftsmen on RUclips.
Can you build me a half sized secretary with a hutch like this? Willing to pay!! Thanks, in advance.
There is nothing as Beautiful as a wood finish! I just can't see painting when you have such a great canvas as the natural wood
Just Amazing differance!
These old family heirloom pieces are just priceless!
My goodness that was impressive. I’ve watched quite a few restorations lately on RUclips, and this one outshines the others by far. The color you chose was perfect, and the finish is so smooth. Outstanding job!
Thankyou!
Such wonderful work! Your dad has much to be proud of!
Wow, I have the companion writing desk to this. Same pulls, same finish, same articulated supports. Mine is in original condition and bought new by my grandmother new.
Thank you John you did a wonderful job!!!
I love how it looked painted!! Glad to see it fixed up though. I think stains sometimes make things look unfinished.
What a beautiful piece of art. It's a shame, that anyone would even think about painting it. And I love the way the hardware turned out. Great job!
That is a stunning final result. So much meticulous care and hard work went into that and it certainly shows. You should be very proud of bringing a beautiful piece of furniture back. You have a good eye for how much to do and how much to leave. Well done! Thanks for sharing.
Absolutely excellent work! ❤
My antiques-loving heart bleeds every time I find a stunning piece of furniture caked in paint.
I promised myself not to subscribe any more,but when l saw this video for the first time it was like love at the first sight,to see a beautyful woman doing a brilliant job it is like a kiss for the spirit,l a carpenter my self can appreciate when someone knows what she s doing,prety nice job but please wear a mask when you paint or use chemicals that can harm your health,thanks for the good time you bring to us doing art with wood,thanks.
This has to be THE BEST restoration video I’ve ever seen! Bravo!
Thankyou!
I found a piece almost exactly like that one. It was sitting in the snow in North Chicago, IL. It needed lots of TLC but I succeeded in bringing it back to life. My daughter has it in her apartment, full of antique china etc.
The best finds are on the street.... Or though friends... I'm available....
Girl you have talent, enjoyed watching you work. I was a cabinet maker for 14 years and I still fiddle around with it
@@briandufty5081 creepy
Your work is a true gem ! Wow, the sense of details, the dedication... just beauty. Thank you for sharing all this with us.
i loved the restore video and also the music. there is something magical about bringing a wooden piece of art back to life.
The piece looks beautiful. It might be rewarding to let the viewers see customers’ reactions. Just a thought.
I was looking forward to seeing the customer's reaction. But, the end product was absolutely beautiful.
I would love to but most of them are too shy. 😕
@@johnsfurniturerepair try to encourage your customers as I would like to see more myself
@@johnsfurniturerepair I can understand that. For those who may give permission, might be cool to include. Love the channel. Loved this piece. Lots of attention and care to detail. I"m sure the owners greatly appreciated.
I thought the same thing as well.
I have a secretary that’s been in the family since 1877 and it survived charing from 2 fires and was last refinished in the late 70s and it’s still holding up. It’s a roll top. I have to make new radial guides for it but that’s about it. You did a superb job on the one you just finished. ❤️
absolutely perfect! A delight to watch. Thank you for posting.
Glad you enjoyed it!
You are truly a perfectionist in your job!
My only concern is your health. Not wearing a mask is a health hazard, specially when you work with chemicals. Please don't kill yourself, because I want to see more of your videos in future.☺️🙏🏻
Beautiful work. I cant believe someone painted this beautiful piece. What attention to detail....Very nice.
Wow what a wonderful job you did. The desk was a mess before and you made it beautiful and originally fantastic. Be proud.
Great Job. Looks beautiful. What a great skill. Real Artistry and justifiable pride in your achievements.
Beautiful lady with patient craftmanship and good heart❤️
Thankyou
I use to have a piano that had brass pedals, and I used ketchup and baking soda to polish them. Also works on other brass items, like the hardware on furniture. A lot cheaper than those products.
Just found you...and loved this video. Have seen so many redos using paint. Some of them I do love, if there looks no way to save otherwise. But it's so refreshing to know there is someone still willing to restore instead of redo. Love the antiques restored.am sure your Dad is so proud!
I agree. I don’t mind a nicely painted piece either. Cheers!
@@robk1310 The beauty of wood is that the paint may protect it to a degree, and it can always be removed at a later date. I find wood to be incredible like that- no matter how old and dirty it is, brand new fresh wood is still underneath. Cheers👍
@@lindagardener855 Very true about paint protecting the wood underneath. She is talented-no doubt there! But she had some well preserved beauty beneath that ugly, caked-on black paint to bring out for all of us to appreciate.
I'm in awe of your work. I don't do customer restores., but enjoy trash finds. Amazes me what is tossed out to the curb. Have given away most of my pieces, asking only for the cost of materials involved. Learning always with each piece. Your work is very enjoyable to watch. And is something I strive to match. Thank you for the posting.
Thank you very much!
This video reminds me of the time I restored a 1930s vintage Wurlitzer Expressions Player Piano back in 1982. It was covered with a zillion coats of battle ship gray paint. Found beautiful burled walnut wood under the paint. That was the easy part. Restoring the inside part of the piano was the challenge since I had never worked on a piano before. But, I got er done! Worked beautifully.
This lady knows what she is doing.
Wow. Hope you took pictures! Thanks for watching!
@@johnsfurniturerepair Took pictures years ago. But don’t know where they went; most likely they went with the ex when she took the piano. Bought the piano for $200 in Marshall, TX. Drove around the State of Texas with the piano in the bed of my pickup until I got home. Thing weighed about 700 lbs. Unloaded it with an engine hoist; lifted off the bed of truck and drove out from under it.
That was so rewarding to watch - absolutely beautiful job. Well done, you brought it back to life.
I bought an antique washstand with hand-carved feet in a junk store for 20$. It had about 5 layers of paint on it. It was a big job, but well worth it to see the original beauty emerge. Stellar, meticulous job on this piece, and the coverup on the flaws is outstanding!
ok so heres some help on dirty brass is floor stripper! I used that in a job i did and use a good polish/sealer. it will come out total brass.
awesome awesome and more awesome job on this piece!!
Amazing simply amazing. And young lady are stunningly beautiful.
The restored secretary looks beautiful. It was a shame to paint such a beautiful wood. Now you brought back its original glory. Awesome work!
Wow. Just wow. An outstanding transformation.
You did an amazing job, totally dedicated, totally perfect. The custoner must have been all over the moon and grateful. Excellently done. My grandfather was a carpenter many years ago and I personally love wood work.
I started watching your streams yesterday when you finished a dining room set. On this piece your care and patience in handling antique furniture is amazing. Good craftsmanship.
