One of my son's was a heart & kidney donor a few years ago; and another son received a liver donation from someone 2 years ago. So nice to know you are a donor. It's a gift like no other as we have been on both sides of it as parents.
Oh wow! I am sorry for your loss. I think it is amazing how we can continue to help people even after we are gone. How is your sone doing that received a liver? I know those typically take a bit longer when recovering and such.
Wow... Kidney hero!!! Just realized, you are much more than artist. Young Lady, you are the Hero. More than any celebrity etc. Bless you!! And no joke about it.
Thank you my sweet friend, I was watching one of your videos today actually and I was like man she needs to read bedtime stories, your voice is so soothing!!!
A wonderful gift of life for your friend💕. I watched the pink nightstand transformation first and saw I had missed this one. I love old distressed finishes so much so my booth is Distressed Donna. You have a wonderful eye for color and your chippiness replicates old primitive pieces. Beautiful.
Ok. This would not be my style but you have me blown away with technique! W.O.W. Sea Spray base in pine one. Blending those varied greens, burlap wash on top, and then the yellow wax! MIND BLOWN!! Amazing! And even better, topped only by the cause! Organ donation, live kidney donation, donate life!! Amazing job!
Wow, thank you! I now its not everyones style but appreciating the work and thought and art is always something I do too even if it isn't my style so thank you for that Kelly. Thank you for seeing it that way :)
Great techniques for distressing! I love it - distressing is right up my alley since I have inadvertently distressed several pieces and decided that I liked how they looked!
I love all these techniques put together which make this piece of furniture unique, colorfully beautiful as I love so much! I will implement exactly everything you say in this tutorial. Thank you! :D xx
I love these colors you chose. One of my best friends donated her kidney to her then husband 5 years ago. It truly is a selfless loving act of kindness. Congrats on yours and your friends donorversary.
Chrysdawna my heart goes out to you and your friend. My Mum just passed in October after a year on renal dialysis and a month in palliative care. She was fortunate in that her kidney disease wasn’t severe until she was in her senior years. 🙏🏻 As for this blending tutorial, it was the most descriptive I’ve ever seen and I’ve watched loads. I think I’ll get blending if I just follow the steps. ❤️❤️❤️
Bless you for donating a kidney. My sister was a recipient of a liver transplant but unfortunately those are not living donors. You're kind and brave. I love the green technique and yellow is also one of my colors so I'll probably watch this a couple times to recreate this look.
I watched this last week, but wasn't doing much commenting then. So I watched this week's and had to come back and re-watch this. I love both versions, but I think I'm in love with how saltwash works with paint. I especially love when the peaks created with the saltwash are hit with the sander - magic happens!
SOOOOOOOOO, I thought know wayyyyyyyyy are these colors going to work, but THEN, my goodness, did they ever! Even though the colors started out bold, this piece actually is so calming to look at (if that makes sense). You are a master blender and fun to watch.
LOL you know what...if I had a dollar for every time I made people nervous at first lol...Thank you so much, I think the yellow helped tone it down but brought it all together also.
🎄Crys'Dawna, I Love It!!! I Love the Chippy Look So So Much! Don't let the ones who don't like this style discourage you My Friend. Everyone has a different style but if someone doesn't like this, then they can move on, no need to say hurtful things and I for one disapprove of them being rude to you and I know all your subscribers feel the same way. You are an Awesome Artist and We All Love You!!! You are an Angel for being a Kidney Donor to Your Friend and I Wish You Both A Happy Anniversary!!! My Aunt was donated a kidney and it changed her life! So Happy for You and Your Friend, You Are Amazing!!! Hugs to You!!!!!! Marley
WOW what a beautiful piece. I’m new to your channel and was pleasantly surprised by the reason for the green color. I am a transplant survivor(1 year post transplant) and I to won’t allow a year to go by without a symbol of my gratitude for life and to my donor and family. Thank you all who donate, you are so appreciated and though of often❤️
Renal Cell Carcinoma survivor here. I too only have 1 kidney. I completely love you're idea of creating the annual green piece. You inspire me to be creative and I will be refinishing a Japanese dining table that was brought from Japan after the war. It's a family heirloom, perhaps with no value other than sentimental, but hopefully generations to come will also care for it as we have.
I really love this finale look and the beautiful blending you did! Those nightstands are really nice. I’m so proud for you for donating your kidney and for your friend who received it. That is such a selfless loving thing to do and shows how kind and special you are. By the way... your hair looks gorgeous.. I love the pink color. Thank you for making my afternoon even better than it was! ❤️❤️👏🏻❤️👏🏻❤️👏🏻❤️
I am so impressed. I sometimes struggle with blending, but I feel much more confident after watching what you did here. Thank you so much for sharing.....I love the color on this piece and I think the whole project is just beautiful.
I am new to your channel and you are an amazing artist!! You are so inspiring and help us to go beyond plain! I can not wait to begin! Thank you for sharing your gift
It a great thing you did for you friend. I lost a kidney as a teen. It just never developed properly. I always worry about the day my solo kidney decides to give up the ghost. Few people would give such a gift.
@@BellaRenovare My solo kidney has been working well for 48 years. Although, I avoid activities that could put it in danger, motorbikes, snow mobiles, skiing, horse back riding. My surgeon told me to forget those hobbies (I wasn't very sporty anyway) and all has been well. A blood test can check kidney function so that's an easy way to keep tabs on your organ.
You rock !! Your videos are so very thorough - you make it look very easy. Thank you for your expertise and your amazing eye for design. Your so inspirational. Cant wait to see what you come up with next !
@@sueeparra7454 yes ma’am I messaged you on FB also (I stalked you lol) if you want to respond there or send me an email so I can get your info 🧡 Crysdawna@gmail.com
I admire you so much! My brother-in-law needs a kidney, so I know how it is to have to depend on someone else’s generosity to save your life. What an awesome thing to do! AND I love your videos! You’re one of my favorites! 😊
Thank you so so much Anita, is he on the list right now? I don't think people understand until they or someone they know is sick. The list is so long :(
My best friend had a kidney transplant 2 years ago. I wouldn't have gladly given one of mine (although very minor, I have a cancer history, so can't). But I love you all the more for giving the gift of life!
Love these green pieces and your inspirational story💓 Its been six months since I donated my kidney to my husband. What a cool idea for our anniversary!
Hi Crys’Dawna! I’m so happy to hear you and your friend you donated your kidney to are doing well. I so much love this piece! I like the chippy look, and green is my favorite color. Such a fabulous transformation. As always, thank you for teaching us your amazing talent dear one. 💕
Thank you so much Beth!! I actually think I am going to give this to my husband his fav color is green and I think next weeks video will be mine!! Can you guess what color????
Girl this is green! I love it! Omg I love you! Your personality and heart just shine through your videos! You are so great and deserve great things hun! I'm loving you from afar! Thanks for being real! Totally sharing your video now and making others aware of being kidney donor!
@@BellaRenovare ditto! I love old things and am 3/4 of the way through replacing my modern furniture with antique and vintage pieces ❤. This chippy look will be the perfect touch 🤗. Ps. You taught me to blend, I watched a tutorial you had done and the way you explained how to do it resonated so well. So thank you!
what a beautiful gift for your friend. you are a great spokesperson for organ donation. and as always it is a pleasure to watch you transform furniture. congratulations on reaching 20,000. Guess I have to share you lol. just kidding. I think it is great that you are able to help so many people transform their lives - even if its only furniture pieces for some.
Thank you so much for bringing more awareness to how important live kidney donation is! I also donated one of my kidneys. I am doing just fine and it seems you are too. There are so many people struggling horribly and waiting to die or get a kidney whatever happens first. Why wait until we are dying to do it? We can do it while we are alive and change someones life. Sorry i got a little carried away. I love your little nightstand! When you first start out i really struggle with the vision but when you are done it simply amazes me with the beauty of it. I love how you are so colorful!
YOUR BIGGEST FAN HERE!!! OMGOSH! IM LOVE THIS! I'm not into the chirpy stuff... when i do it i just don't ever like how it turns out... or maybe I'm way to judgmental on my self??? but i LOVE THIS!!! great job!
I had just asked the Dixie Belle sight a question about adding more water to achieve the washed look. Thank you for addressing that. Also, I love the idea of coloring your wax. The yellow wax seemed to unify the greens. Thank you for showing these things. Once again you have proved that art and function are compatible.
Lol thank you so much, I did the wash with the color pine cone in the last video too!! I also did a live on dixiebelles Main Facebook page this afternoon/morning let me see if I can find a link for you :) fb.watch/2gXXPfCnMo/
At the beginning I was a little scared abou those colors but when I saw the final results I really loved it, it looks like it has been aging for years .. 😘
I wasn't sure about those colors together UNTIL I saw the final result. Once again, you turned something brown and boring into a fun piece! So glad to hear your friend is still doing great! xoxo
Yes! I did a blending technique on a dresser in similar colors... my favorite to date. Love how you showed your blending process, nice tutorial for new painters❣👍
Another beauty!!! What a special person you are! Live organ donation, that is just AWESOME!! Your friend is very lucky to have you, and it’s great hearing that you both are doing so well!! ♥️♥️
I will be using some samples cans and jars of different blues and off whites for an old oak set of drawers. I think some of these techniques can be used to get the effect I want of Scandinavian old furniture that will make me feel comfortable. Whatever that is . But I will not be afraid in this covid time to use what I have and mix and make my own paints up. So thank you for giving me courage. It may not be the same as giving a kidney but it is possible to give with courage to yourself.
Nancy, that IS courage can I tell you how many people will not even try new things or play with color? I think it absolutely is courageous to try and play. You are going to have so much fun, I really didn't find my style until I did that :)

I love the way you blend the colors and the contrast with the nude wood. Colorful piece for this gloomy times. We do need a some joy now more than never.
I agree!! and the pieces the last few weeks were more muted, I REALLY need some color so the next few videos are going to be wayyyyy more colorful, I NEED to!!
You know I love your pieces. You are so fearless combining colors that I would never even consider and then Surprise surprise they always come out perfect. Thank you for YOU !
I appreciate that, I like to do something different every time because hey you never know maybe later on you need to know the ratio of sea spray to paint to get a certain look, I think there is always something valuable in each piece even if it isn't your style :) Sharon I appreciate you so much ❤️❤️
As always great job. I love that you dedicate a piece to bring awareness to this important issue. I'm glad that your friend Kim ( and you too) are doing so well.
I just love watching you paint especially blending! Fantastic job once again. Congrats on being a living donor. Oh, by the way, your hair looks beautiful!❤️❤️❤️
I absolutely love this piece from the colors and the texture and chippiness, which is something that I'm really into. I love watching you blend colors, I'm hoping to get brave enough to try one day. And congrats to you for being a donor, that has to be one of the most selfless things a person can do for someone else. ❤️
Wow! Crys Dawna! I love ❤️ love ❤️ this piece! I am still trying to follow your easy blending technique😄 I’m getting close! Love the spray sealer too (which I have to get) and Sea Spray (which I already have). Awesome job!!!
One of my son's was a heart & kidney donor a few years ago; and another son received a liver donation from someone 2 years ago. So nice to know you are a donor. It's a gift like no other as we have been on both sides of it as parents.

I love the way you blend the colors and the contrast with the nude wood. Colorful piece for this gloomy times. We do need a some joy now more than never.
I agree!! and the pieces the last few weeks were more muted, I REALLY need some color so the next few videos are going to be wayyyyy more colorful, I NEED to!!
and thank you so so much Ana :)
I gotta admit I started getting nervous when you started at it with the scraper but by the end, I was all in. Love your trick with the paint and wax.
Wow wow I love it so much
Thank you so much :)
Gorgeous! Such a wonderful way to celebrate something so meaningful 💖💖💖
Thank you so much my sweet friend!!

Thank you!!!
You know I love your pieces. You are so fearless combining colors that I would never even consider and then Surprise surprise they always come out perfect. Thank you for YOU !
Thank you so much Lynn!! I appreciate you so so much!!
Beautiful!!!
Thank you so much!!
What an awesome thing to do for your friend.
Boho is way outside my comfort zone. I watch you because I admire your technique and love your personality. 😉
I appreciate that, I like to do something different every time because hey you never know maybe later on you need to know the ratio of sea spray to paint to get a certain look, I think there is always something valuable in each piece even if it isn't your style :)
Sharon I appreciate you so much ❤️❤️
As always great job. I love that you dedicate a piece to bring awareness to this important issue. I'm glad that your friend Kim ( and you too) are doing so well.
Thank you so much! ❤️❤️

I absolutely love this piece from the colors and the texture and chippiness, which is something that I'm really into. I love watching you blend colors, I'm hoping to get brave enough to try one day. And congrats to you for being a donor, that has to be one of the most selfless things a person can do for someone else. ❤️
Thank you so much! You really should try it!!!
Love this! I’m just starting out with furniture painting and your videos are very helpful.
Thank you!!! Last month I was a little tame normally I am wild with color!! So I will teach you my ways lol
