You & me both, that Sage color is THE BEST one. All the greens I’ve seen you use from Dixie Bell are. I think I gotta start building my collection to paint my stuff to match. My furniture looks chaotic & too different right now. The original hardware is just gorgeous with that green.
Very pretty. I can’t help but wish the natural wood was the star though. There are so many pieces with poor quality wood to paint that I wish pieces with beautiful wood were restored rather than flipped. But it’s pretty!
@@loristrout4741 a chest of decorative drawer or a chest which would hold a chamber pot was known as a "Commode". This word was the used when toilets became popular.

😭I was really loving this but my jaw dropped when you painted over the beautiful wood. Why don’t people in my generation appreciate real wood anymore:(
@@vikodens i just think in this piece painting was the best option. Usually i am not on that side though. I only commented on a few… And just like they are sharing their opinion, so am I.
OOO I do love this make over! No unessential changes to the shape/texture/patterns and keeping the original hardware was a Smart choice! I love how you left the top wood, fits perfectly!
I was really hoping that was what she was going for. Oh well. I guess someone else will find this at a thrift store, rip all the paint back off, sand down, oil, and varnish.
I love to hear your excitement in your voice, your over the moon and quite right !! It’s beautiful ♥️ my front door is painted sage ! Well done you 👍🏼♥️✨✨✨✨
The way some of the wood is cut, you wouldn't be able to remove the paint without an insane amount of layers sanded off. If it's a genuine French commode dresser, that's 300+ years of history damaged by paint
Oh, I love to see that there’s hundreds of people that like that would look also, you can tell that it was really quality wooden greens and something that was probably made along time ago by a woodworker. 🪵 ❤
No one buys this crap! Look on market place, a piece of “beautiful” wood furniture, given away for free, found on the curb. No one wants it as a used wood furniture. They want it refreshed with a nice finish. You wood people are so funny.
@@Dontworryaboutit12 what color would you prefer? Paint 🎨 colors youd use? Well, you’ve got particleboard IKEA furniture people lacking in craftsmanship when lacking pride, care… something you can be proud of. That’s beautiful robots taking over MDF yeah oh yeah and eastern medicine I’m considered what’s -wood element? 5 elements 🪵
Your stuff is gorgeous but it bums me out to see these classic pieces getting painted the same 3 colors by most furniture flippers. I get that if it’s for profit it costs too much to sand it and restain but dang I wish people would restore more pieces and not revamp everything.
I really like what you did. :) I know some people may not like painted furniture, but by that same token, some people don’t like the look of wood furniture, either, especially if the stain/finish clashes with other wood in the room. Paint is not a cop out-that’s like saying jeans are a cop out when you could wear shorts instead. It’s just a different look. You did a great job!
There, someone said it. Thanks. It is very hard for me to paint over my vintage wood pieces. In fact I just bought some new ones, or rather new to me. But after thinking on it for about four years I did paint a large Buffay that came from France. It looks so good.
I really do love what you did with it. But I can't help thinking that this was a piece where the wood could have been restored nicely. And might have even been more stunning. That hardware is some of the most beautiful that I've seen.
these comments being on every furniture flip channel is so annoying. if you like antique furniture and dont want it repainted, go buy some yourself. a lot of this antique furniture people boohoo about online was destined to be trashed because nobody wanted it anymore. people taking old stuff thats no longer wanted and turning it into pieces of furniture they actually like is not a bad thing.
@@avengersteve this is an expensive antique in original or restored condition. Those bright spots in the grain are medulary rays and only visible on quartersawn pieces of very few species of wood. That being oak is why you can see them. These furniture flippers go out, buy furniture for $50-$200. Slap paint on it. Sell it. And it then gets trashed because the actual value is gone as it is so difficult to restore nobody wants to. Thats why people complain
@@ZackTheKack who CARES if theyre slapping paint on expensive furniture. THEY bought it. it literally doesnt effect anyone elses lives. its like the ppl that complain on coffee making videos abt the girls using too much sugar or milk. its their coffee. if you dont like, dont do it
@@avengersteve She said it was a 300+ year old French antique. The comments are divided between antiques lovers and upcyclers, with the antique lovers being horrified that a surviving 1700s piece of furniture has been irreparably damaged by paint. Most people didn't come looking for the channel either, it just popped up in their shorts feed, so there's far more exposure now from people who aren't upcyclers. Also, you'd be very hard pressed to find a genuine French commode dresser for sale. They're usually kept as museum pieces in either old house and castles, or in actual museums
@@NiaJustNia this is definitely not 300 years old. If it was you would see some tools marks up close and there's none. At most, I'd say it's 80 years old. The only interesting pieces are the hardware.
So gorgeous ❤ it’s crazy but I inherited this same piece when I was a child and had it for many years until my home flooded and a neighbor stole it as we were moving. I’ve never forgotten it and your video brought me so much joy to see the potential you found in an identical piece. Keep up the good work!!! You are awesome!!
I always feel sad to see a nice piece of solid wood painted. Wood is so beautiful on it's own. I would only paint real wood if there was no other alternative to restore it. The original wood cabinet, without paint, was worth more as an antique, adding paint decreases the value.
Is it me or does everyone just paint furniture in the same color for flips? This piece already looked stunning. I wouldn't have covered up the beautiful wood.
I agree, but it is beautiful ❤️ !!!! She did a FABULOUS job on the hardware though !!! And, I agree, every FURNITURE FLIP that I have seen in the last few months has been painted: SAGE !!!!! I mean GOOD GRIEF Mergatroid !!!!!!! I'd love to know what she PAID for the piece and what she got for it !!!!!
@@bradylpetersen I truly hate to say it but I agree, it very much feels like "wow I found something original let's make it something you can get in any furniture shop" she shouldn't buy wood furniture if she won't appreciate its grains. All it needs is a clean and more staining, she definitely could've painted accents which would've make it look interesting rather than basic.
I think it looks beautiful, I know some people don't like how you painted over the wood, but you have done an amazing job using your skill and imagination....
I love it! Even though I don’t always like real wood to be painted, if you want to sell stuff these days I guess you have to appeal to the masses. I probably sold fast!
The hardware turned out beautifully. The rest looks like something you might have bought at Pottery Barn
Agree.
Yeah i believe thats the look most people are trying for. Its actually quite popular with folks uder 60-70 years old.🤷♂️
Prefer the original wood patina when it is so rich with grained wood
Like others have said, I don’t care for covering such vintage wood, however the piece is still gorgeous

That hardware is stunning!
Why did you call the side board a commode?
It is very old, kept in a bedroom with a pitcher and bowl for water and a chamber pot and yes they called them commodes, before indoor plumbing.
A side board is usually bigger.
Very pretty. I can’t help but wish the natural wood was the star though. There are so many pieces with poor quality wood to paint that I wish pieces with beautiful wood were restored rather than flipped. But it’s pretty!
Me too paint crap not beautiful wood. I also don't know what she thinks a commode is? Commode is a toilet.

Absolutely LOVE how the hardware came out!
That hardware is wonderful! I’m so glad you didn’t replace it.
Beautiful...trying to find vids where all this beautiful wood is not always painted over.
Can’t make money with that wood. No one will buy it!
@@hollygolightly3907 I know… I sell painted furniture lol that’s what I’m saying
There are so many videos like that.
I love that hardware. Beautiful!
The hardware is stunning!
It’s incredible! Never seen such like that before
Whether it's painted or not, you did quality work. Great job!
Omg i love sage too!!!🌱..... I love how you left natural wood on top! 🥰
Beautiful job! Well done!!
😭I was really loving this but my jaw dropped when you painted over the beautiful wood. Why don’t people in my generation appreciate real wood anymore:(
Nah it looks better painted, but I get your side of it. This specifically looked better painted, most stuff doesnt tho.
@@Iluvepetunias Okay we get it. You think painted wood is better. You don’t need to say this on every comment with differing opinions than yours.
@@vikodens i just think in this piece painting was the best option. Usually i am not on that side though. I only commented on a few… And just like they are sharing their opinion, so am I.
Gosh, it's okay if she painted a cheap and ugly wood furniture, but this one was made from gorgeous wood with beautiful grain, smh
Thanks God, we are different with different points of view! ❤
I think the black wax made it look cheap. Id rather have seen it restained, but those pulls were gorgeous.
That woodgrain WAS gorgeous.
WAS 😭
Was, but flippers like her just can't help themselves.
It came out absolutely gorgeous!!!! Love it!!! 🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰
OOO I do love this make over! No unessential changes to the shape/texture/patterns and keeping the original hardware was a Smart choice! I love how you left the top wood, fits perfectly!
This would be perfect to sand down and varnish
I agree. It lost a lot of its character. Not everything has to be painted.
@@uju4420 I like varnish better but I also like what she does with her pieces. She makes them look good and not tacky.
I was really hoping that was what she was going for. Oh well. I guess someone else will find this at a thrift store, rip all the paint back off, sand down, oil, and varnish.
@@ohtrueyeahnah it does actually look tacky. Painted furniture in that color scheme looks like it came from a 2013 diy mom's pinterest.
But why honour the beauty of the wood, when you can "put your own personality on it" by painting it a hideous colour that will date in 5 years? /s
I love to hear your excitement in your voice, your over the moon and quite right !! It’s beautiful ♥️ my front door is painted sage ! Well done you 👍🏼♥️✨✨✨✨
Love the hardware!
Painting wood furniture aka “flipping” is the modern day equivalent of 80s linoleum covering hardwood flooring
Especially love the hardware!
My favourite too
I think it's a contender for your next furniture rescue, where you take the paint off and restore it to it's original beauty.
Love it!!! It is awesome
The way some of the wood is cut, you wouldn't be able to remove the paint without an insane amount of layers sanded off. If it's a genuine French commode dresser, that's 300+ years of history damaged by paint
Yup
😂
Vinegar is a miracle cleaner, damn that original hardware! Looks so good!!💯👏👏
I really like the patina on brass that comes with age and handling. That shiny colour is a bit tacky and new for me.
The wood was so pretty though 😭😭😭
I agree 👍!!!

This is one of the few times i wished you had kept the wood💔. It looked so nice
Could have bought it at Ikea after painting. Sad for the basicness.
Love love love the color!
Absolutely stunning. Awesome job! Thanks for sharing.
Love it !! I would love to have one!!
I’m so glad!
Beautiful Work! I did a lot of this when I was younger. Furnished nearly our whole home with beautiful pieces that are still standing today!❤️
i like wood original
The hardware looks amazing!
Gorgeous glad to see you kept the hardware!!👍🏾🤜🏽🙂😊
If you would've brought it back to original it would've been worth more
OMG That’s is beautiful & I want that piece ? ❤️😊✌🏼
Its beautiful but I liked more the original.
I love all your make overs. Beautiful
It is so cute! Love it! ❤
Lmao, every flip is your new favorite! It just shows you love what you do!
Lovely job!!
I would have kept it natural but the hardware is beautiful and they came out great!
Thank you!!!

Good thing you can easily click a button to not watch the videos, huh!? 😂
@@lennykrapitz4794the thing will still be painted. If you don’t agree just scroll on.
This person paints over everything. She just recently starting coming up on my views.
Unfortunately you painted it and therefore covered the beautiful texture of the wood.
Bro, just shut up
It looks really nice but this is one of the only times I think you shouldn’t have painted over the wood
My Favorite color! Great job! 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
That is so cute I love it!
Very nice, I like that you left the top natural. 👍👏👏
Thank you so much!!

Awesome as always wish i could own one of ur peices..keep up the great videos

I had to listen to that part twice. She does say Commode aka a Toilet.
Well, a commode is sort of both a toilet or a piece of furniture.
Same

Being from the UK you said commode and I went that's not a toilet!! French meaning...got it! Lol!!!
Actually the French meaning comes from aristocrats using a bed side commode for what a toilet is for 😅
Also from the UK & thought exactly the same! I was expecting that the lid might lift up & there would be a hole under!! 🤔
Nice. But I would love to have seen the natural beauty bought back out.
Wo! The hardware cleaned up really well.

Same here. I love that she cleaned up and preserved the original hardware, but it's a shame the paint covers the gorgeous original wood texture.
I kbow right! I thought she was going to stain and keep the wood as it is because it looked so gorgeous with the handles, but.......
Yeah same! I thought with the seal type thing she put on, she was just gonna leave it :(
My thoughts exactly. The natural wood is beautiful. Or sand it down and seal it...or lightly bleach it but let the grain show. Why always paint it?
Yeah those years of grease and grime erm... Yeah years of patina 🤦🏻♀️
It's absolutely gorgeous! You did a great job!
Fabulous makeover! Looks more beautiful than the original!
My heart hurts to see the beauty of woodgrain ( natures art) painted. Wood grain has so many colors and depths.. no two are alike.
