DARK & DINGY to BRIGHT & MODERN - Beautiful Dresser Makeover
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 30 сен 2024
- This is like NIGHT AND DAY! This pair of mid century-esque dressers underwent an insane makeover!
From dated, dark, and dingy to bright, airy, soft, and modern, these pieces have come a long way. I had to strip layers of faux woodgrain finish to expose the REAL wood veneer underneath. I chose a white wax to keep the exposed woodgrain light, and opted to paint the rest in one of Fusion Mineral Paint's newest colours, Eucalyptus.
I had to steam out a couple of dents that I wouldn't have been able to sand through without risking burning through the veneer; it's a great trick I've done in a couple other videos as well.

omg ! Stunning !!! You have an incredible eye for proportion .. how much to paint, how much and which sections to show wood grain.. And the color choices are always spot on .. : ]
Same thoughts! She’s amazing that way. Also amazing is how Angie figures out finishes and manages to deal with them. I would never have thought to use stripper on that plastic like stuff.
I love, love, love it. Your the “Furniture Doctor”. Love the color scheme.
Doctor yes!! But also possible “furniture wizard”!
I, too, love the colors of it all. The pieces are beautiful! Thanks for showing us.
She is…The Furniture Doctor 😊😊😊😊
I want to run out and buy matching pieces to everyone that she has done and copy every one of them she hasn't done a single piece that I haven't loved
Your channel is the best. There are a number of them and I’ve got to say they are pretentious AF and the results aren’t so nice because of it. You enhance what is there, you have such a good eye for reinterpreting pieces. Your pieces always look like they were supposed to be like that, whilst everyone else’s stuff looks like a DIY because it doesn’t suit the lines or shape or something is just off. There is a lack of cohesion. I don’t mean to be slamming and criticising other creators so hard but in order to explain why you are a different caliber of creator, I needed to.
What they said! 😊
Yes once again an absolutely beautifully transformed two lovely useful bits of furniture, I'd be proud to have in my home. Love your show. X
I can't believe people are so bothered by you having your bunnies on camera that they actually leave you a crappy comment about it. Ridiculous. Bunnies make me smile and so do you. Your channel is amazing, bunnies and all. You do you, because you're absolutely amazing ☺️ Also, this piece is gorgeous, the green is so beautiful.
So much more attractive! Beautiful color combination, also, really appreciate your teaching style. Have been doing this for 50 years + and still learning some great things from all of you young people!
These 2 pieces turned out absolutely beautiful Angie. I love the paint colour with the white wax. Also really like those chubby legs. Thanks for another great video!
You are excellent at these painted/unpainted furniture pieces. These two were just heavy and thick and graceless. Your choice of paint color, wood treatment shade and metal color has turned them into elegant bedroom furniture. It’s not just your color choices. It’s also your choice of where the paint goes and doesn’t go. I am continually impressed and delighted with what you create.🌸
I am always happy to see bunnies, kitties, puppies, horses, goats, in any video. My son’s family has two lovely bunnies. Very cute and quiet!
I really like the finish of the white wax. An absolutely stunning job as usual!
They look amazing. You had some great tips that I'd never heard before. Very helpful thank you. Who doesn't like bunnies haha 🐇🐇🐇. Some people are just mean.
Yep. I love the bunnies too!
There are lots of nuggets in here. Cleaning and making sure you rinse. Stripping. Sanding. Priming. Using an iron to get out dents. Popping the grain. Minimizing brush strokes. Spray painting. Wax. Great stuff as always Angie.
This two tone looks so good. Not sure how I missed this one. I appreciate all the work you do to provide us with great content.
Thanks so much for watching Angie!
Are you kidding??? Furniture and bunnies ALL day! What a perfect and cute combo!
Wow these are definitely my favourite ones I've seen on your channel so far!!!
(I tend to think that after every video though lol. But these are 100% my thing)
Absolutely gorgeous! I'm in love!
What a fresh look I love them!! I love seeing the bunnies too! I just don’t understand why people want to be so negative.
Cant wait, love to see the loving transformation you do to these old unloved bits of furniture. 😍💚
These turned out fantastic! I had a long dresser like this as a teen & your color selection is much nicer than what I had. Thanks for the tip on the top with the stripper. I just started working on a piece with a similar top & was debating on if I should prime it or strip it to see what I got. I’m going to strip it. 🤞
Beautiful result, as always. The original pieces were "hard on the eyes". You really transformed them into something lovely.
This is gorgeous!! I have no clue how you make this look so easy but you do a fantastic job with the furniture and editing.
Lovely job, as always, Angie. That eucalyptus color is beautiful. The transformation is stellar!
Beautiful! Light, bright and modern. Well done!
Wait.... Who doesn't LOVE the bunnies?? They're so adorable! Thanks for not letting negative comments deter you from including them. 🥰
So perfectly executed and beautiful results! I’m always so impressed with your work.
Beautiful! Love the colors you chose. The hardware is so unique and perfect.
Love the resurrection of these pieces. Fresh and light, and interesting! Love your work.
Amazing, you have managed to turn some really ugly furniture pieces into something attractive.
Oh WOW WOW WOW Angie, i think this is one of the most prettiest transformations i have seen, great work and really your rabbits and what you do is beautiful. There is always going to be people that you just have to shake your head and wonder……..WHY looser. Cheers love your channel 👏👏👏
Incredible. The state of them before, I wouldn't have given them a second glance even if they were free. And now I'm lusting after them. Did you go to Hogwarts? You truly are the best kind of witch backing up your magic with a lot of hard work and well-developed skills and knowledge.
Pretty sweet transformation; you did an excellent job.
My word, what a GORGEOUS transformation! I wish there was a 'Love' button instead of just the " Like* button :-D
Oh, and btw, never mind the haters… I luv it when your pets make cameo appearances ;-)
I love how you don’t just paint everything, but you find the balance between paint and wood grain.
Very nice indeed! You created timeless pieces.
Wonderful transformation. Lovely subtle colors.
Amazing as always- love the colour combo!
Absolutely gorgeous!👍🏼👍🏼❤️
Absolutely stunning!!
Wow! Angie, you are a magician. Absolutely beautiful ❤️
Absolutely stunning!
My favourite pieces you have done so far.
I would love if you did some videos going into a bit more detail on how you do things. I am learning so much from you, thank you 🇦🇺
Absolutely stunning. Loved how the legs turned out. And love how light and airy they both look. Just stunning...as always.
Love it! I've got a couple of those kicking around waiting to be loved. Thanks for the tutorial.
I love the colors you picked for these pieces. I love the style of the dressers as well. The pulls are fabulous and the champagne color would always be my first choice. The whole project came out beautifully. I'm very intrigued with the wax you used, I like the end result possibly better than regular white washing. It's more subtle and inviting. I love love love when you show us your sweet animals. Those bunnies are so cute and sweet and very soft looking. What a hoot to have them hanging around to pet any time you want. Thanks for all you do, I thoroughly enjoy your videos and all the tips and information you provide.
Bonjour Angie, wow! That colour is just stunning, you have such a good vision of your end product, btw I love the bunnies... have a wonderful day! Christine
Well these are just stunning af...love that eucalyptus colour (being an Aussie I suppose I would have to 😉) and the soft tones of the waxed wood. Just lovely.
As for the idiots who don't like your bunnies, screw them! POST ALL THE BUN BUNS!
This is my second time watching and I think you’re amazing! I’m lonely and ill and Bored and I need something to make me feel like I’ve accomplished something. Something so simple like your video is giving me inspiration and Hope, Thank You so much! I’m a big fan!❤️🙏🏻❤️
Oh, my Goodness, Angie, what a work of art you created. I love the white wax and the soft green. Both pieces turned out gorgeous. When I saw what you had to work with, I could not imagine how you could turn that ugly brown in something so beautiful. You are an artist for sure.
SO gorgeous! I really appreciate the care you put into your work. And thank you for clearly and simply explaining so many of the techniques you use, I'm learning a lot. This is my new favorite channel :)
Tres chic’ !
This set reminds me of my parents’ in the 70’s, though theirs were in good condition. I wish I had your talent (or $ to pay someone 🙄) because I still have my father’s MCM danish solid wood desk I need to refinish. Also have an Arts and Crafts settle bench circa 1904 that needs a refinish. Ah well, they’ll have to wait as I am elbows deep into multiple other projects
Love the transition!
I have a question, - I have an antique, oak china cabinet, 4 generations in the family, and it's in dire need of some moisturizing. I know you use Odie's a lot and I was wondering if you think this is best for a problem like mine. It's been stained but has no real finish, like shellac, that I can see, In the past, I've used Old English oil but I don't feel it's enough. Maybe I just don't use it as often as I should. I was hoping you might have some recommendations for better care.
Beautiful, beautiful, beautiful! Dont worry about the bunny haters, who could honestly put their hands up and say "we don't like bunnies" 🙄😁.
I think you should put more bunnies in 😉🥳
Thank you for uploading, I think they turned out just beautiful.
Young lady, stay the course, you have good content, people don’t like your pets or anything else really don’t have watch. I like it and look forward to your vids. Thanks.
You are soooo talented! The pieces are absolutely beautiful 😍
Since I’ve seen your videos I’ve started refinishing some old dressers I’ve gotten from my neighbors ty for helping and showing how to do it the right way your awesome
Very classy 👌 love it
Wow, you did it again. Another gorgeous set. Seems you have a distinct style emerging, although with many variations in it. Wonder if a furniture company would hire you as a freelance designer. You could have your own line.
Hi Angie, I truly enjoy watching you work on furniture. In my opinion, your enjoyment and passion for what you do is obvious. You make each piece shine! From one maritimer to another; You do us proud!
Love your videos. Great work and explanations. Thanks so much
What a very tidy work shop you have. Not like some ive seen in that industry, or skill. 👍🙌
Angie! I get so excited when I see a new video pop up! Thank you for taking the time to share your process, I always learn something new from each video! These are absolutely gorgeous, yet again!
Absolutely Amazing work! Lady you do amazing work!!!!!
Speechless! You have a great eye for hidden treasures and your makeovers are amazing. That hardware also caught my attention.
Please keep the bunny cameos coming.
Impressive!! I would have never guessed those pieces could look that good. Wow! Also - I vote for bunnies in the videos. ;-)
You are a genius. Thank you so much for being so generous with your knowledge. 😊
Your talent, skill, patience, excellent and easily understood explanations, the wonderful music and pleasant voice!! All make an enthralling experience.
I haven’t started redoing two pieces I plan to do (my first, ever) but I’m hoping if I watch enough of your videos I won’t make too much of a mess of them!
Wow, thank you! I believe in you. Take it slow and you can do it!
You're right, the pulls are very beautiful. Nice flip!
Stunning. I just used that eucalyptus on a dresser for my grandchildrens bedroom, I love it. ❤
These pieces are soooo beautiful now. What a transformation. Nice job, Angie!
Love this color combination of the eucalyptus paint color and the pale wood. BEAUTIFUL!
Thank you very much!
Your staging music gets me every time. These two pieces are just lovely!
Absolutely love your transformations. When I do hardware, I spray Dark Bronze with a light over spray of copper. To me it took like mica, I haven’t tried this but I bet a black with a silver or gold would be nice as well.
Wow back to LIFE! Beautiful and elegant!
Did you receive the teas I sent and the gifts from your Amazon list?
I did! You sent the glue! There’s actually a video i filmed a couple of weeks ago but won’t be releasing until the new year of a mid century dresser- I used the glue for the first time in that and gave a shout out so keep an eye out for that video! :-) There are actually a few shout outs in that one, as I used a few different products that folks had sent from my wish list! ❤️❤️❤️ Thank you so much!
@@TranscendFurnitureGallery I wasn’t able to send a note with the gloves, but I hope you received those also. Thank you for the amazing videos and instructions!
I can't believe someone would gripe about bunnies in your videos! I personally love it, so please don't let anti-bunny people convince you to stop.
There’s a few grumps in every crowd! The bunnies are adorable 🥰
I love bunnies never let people get in your Way keep on showing your furry friends. Wendy Thompson
Thank you very much Wendy!
So satisfying to see the real wood veneer brought out on these.
Very nice! Who would have thought such beauty was hiding underneath the ugly brown?
Wild isn't it? Thanks so much for watching! 😊
Yay! Another inspiring video!
Love this!!! You always seem to know what a piece needs to bring out it beauty. Love watching you transform ugly ducklings to beautiful scams. Love the colors you did these pieces in. Thank you.
This was such a good restoration!! You truly brought them back to life - they are gorgeous!!
I’m impressed! You made these Gorgeous!
Stunning as usual. You have such a good eye.
*Adoro móveis claros. Ficou ótimo!*
Thank you very much!
Beautiful! What a transformation.
Another beautiful piece! 😍
Wow!!! The dressers came out so soft and pretty- what a transformation! I love how the legs match as well. Beautiful!
Fabulous transformation. The hardware looks perfect sprayed. Two perfect pieces. LOVE THEM
Love these!!
Wowza! The finished product is absolutely gorgeous! 👍🏼👍🏼 Two thumbs way up!
Yo Angie, off topic I've motioned the DeWalt smiley face to a few friends that have the same sander & now they can never unsee the face!!! I give you the credit when they ask me how'd I ever noticed it. LOL!! The more I watch the more I'm convinced that you're 100% certified in BLS for furniture. I haven't seen a piece that you haven't revived back to life. Hoping all is well, Dirty Jersey out!!!
Angie, I am running out of superlatives! SO so very nice! Beautiful! Loverly! You are my favorite channel! I hope you realize you are helping people (like me!) get through these troubled times. Can't say how, but your videos are very relaxing. Thank you very much!
Who doesn't want to see a bunny? What's wrong with people.
Haha I just don’t understand those folks! Hahaha 🐰🐰❤️
You did it again! What a great result, love the colours . ❤️🐇🐰❤️ and about the bunnies: It’s your channel and they’re your bunnies and the good cause is something you chose like besides keeping as much furniture out of the landfill, you save bunnies. What are people complaining about? Many people feel the need to change others to feel better about themselfs. 🐰🐇🐰🐇🐰🐇🐰🐇🐰🐇🐰🐇🐰🐇
I feel the same way about brush strokes! Sometimes you'll see them and it's no big deal. LOVE the way the white wax lightened up the top. Two beautiful pieces, brava!
O.M.G.!!! Those 2 pieces are absolutely beautiful!!! Your hard work really shows! I love, love, love your gorgeous videos. These pieces are 2 of the most impressive I have seen on RUclips. And that says a lot! Keep up the very informative and fabulous work that you do. I look forward to it. 👍🐇
Ohhhh.
I sooo love your work! If I lived in Canada(?) I would most certainly be buying my furniture from you. Living in Europe (Germany) makes that a little difficult. ;) Your hints are great - I use them to help me create wood-paint combo gifts. Keep on producing these wonderful furniture items, and I'll keep being stunned by their beauty. All the best.
Super! If I lived in Canada I’d buy them but postage to Europe Isa tad expensive, guess I’ll have to watch you more and learn some to do this myself, I’m just starting out, learning by doing and making mistakes 🤦🏻♀️ thanks for being an inspiration not to give up👍🏻
Thanks Angie, very informative! You answered I question I thought of today regarding using wax on a top like this and how ideal it is to do so. These pieces are sublime. 🙌🏻💥
Hi Angie, these pieces are beautiful, who knew there was beautiful wood underneath that plastic crap...I'm amazed, I love your choice of color and the white was is gorgeous...Take care...stay safe...
Your work is just amazing omg!!! I love everything you do. How well do you sell your pieces? I think I undersell my furniture and the material isn't cheap. And who complains about you showing your animals on here....grouchy people omg!!
Every time I see "Transcend" pop up on my RUclips feed, I get excited! Your work is stellar!!! And, so is your philosophy about landfills, paint, and natural wood.
Really nice job and I truly enjoy your channel! I do have a question for you since you do a lot of refinishing and use FMP. I am doing a custom job of 2 cherry end tables. I will be painting the body with Champlain(2) and Casement (1) mix and lightly dry brushing edges and trim with a medium brown.. We talked about refinishing the top and staining the top lighter. I sanded the top of one and it really is red (true cherry wood). I had thought about using SFO in Cappucinno mixed 50/50 with natural but I'm afraid it will still be too red. What do you think I should do? I thought about doing a wash with the Champlain/Casement but still afraid the red will come through and she really wants to get rid of the red and go lighter.
