It’s drop-dead gorgeous! It’s hard to believe that it’s the same piece. Love it.
It really did turn out to be a stunner! Thanks.☺
It reminded me of a matted, malnourished dog rescue, where you have a happy beautiful playful dog in the end. 🤎
That’s bad ass, great restoration.
I can tell you’re like me, I have OCD, things have to be done right and perfect.
Merry Christmas 🎄
❤️♥️❤️❣️
Oh my goodness! What a jaw-dropping beauty! Gorgeous color, love the diamond shape in the wood, and those draw pulls are stunning and so unique. Absolutely the best job ever!
You’re so kind, thanks! I was very happy with how it turned out! 😍
Absolutely gorgeous! ❤ Beautiful restoration and love, love, love the handles.
Thank you so much! The handles are 🤩
From one restoration artist to another, I love how you left no stone unturned, cut no corners and let the piece shine rather than half-*ss it!!!
Being so used to restoring client pieces, seeing this mcm restore makes me want to restore my own furniture! But like the chef who eats pb&j for dinner at home, my own pieces get restored last if at all!!!
I feel your pain, I often neglect my own stuff as well. Although I do have a few choice pieces! Thanks for tuning in! ☺
That is a beautiful piece. Very stunning.
Thanks so much! 🥰
WOW!! That wood grain is AMAZING!! It is a true masterpiece!! Thank you for restoring it to its NATURAL beauty!!❤❤❤❤
That wood grain was just begging to be released! 😂 Thanks.😉
It just needed your love and attention to detail. Wonderful.
It’s so rewarding to see a piece come back to life! 😊
Wow! It turned out absolutely breathtakingly beautiful!!!❤❤❤
I think so too! Thanks so much for tuning in! 😍
No words! The most interesting knowledge filled furniture restore video I have ever!💯 watched
I am so glad you enjoyed it! 😄 Thanks for tuning into my channel.
This piece is absolutely stunning!! I could watch you all day long!!!
Thanks for the kind words, and thanks for tuning in! 😊
Absolutely stunning. Your skills are amazing. If I had been presented with this piece I would’ve saved the handles and binned the rest.well done.
I can't lie, the thought did cross my mind! 😂
You are a "Treasure" for the talent you have in restoring "Treasures". God bless.❤❤❤
That’s so kind of you! 😊 Thanks for tuning in!
OMGOODNESS!!!!
I am in the middle of the restoration from Hell!
Every time I fix something and get ready to sand, another piece of veneer pops off! The only saving grace is that I don’t intend to sell it! It was a swap and boy do I regret it! I swapped my dining set with an acquaintance.I liked the style of their set so I offered the swap! My set was sturdier and in much better shape. In fact I’m embarrassed for the people I swapped with because I would never have agreed to the swap if it were vice versa🤦🏾♀️. But, watching your video has helped my to just finish the project and live with it!!! I’m confident I will be content with the final result!☺️😊
If you've done this long enough....we've all been there before! Believe me I have had my fair share of regrets in the middle of a project, but somehow in the end it always turns out better than how it started. Good for you for persevering! 🤞🤞🤞
Holy SMOKE! This is the transformation of all transformations! You are one skilled artist!
Thanks a lot! 😁😁😁
I loved your background music.
Thanks....it's not everyone's cup of tea! 🤣
It is so good to see a restorer clean furniture first! K
Thanks 😊
Wow, that's amazing, you really brought the beauty out of that wood!
Thanks....it was there all along, just hiding! 🤣
I gasped when I saw the restored beauty of this piece. Brilliant job!
Thanks for watching! Glad you liked it. 😊
Beautiful. Sure wanted to see the two finished pieces together.
I still have both so I may be able to get a shot of them 😊😊 together !
SUCH A GORGEOUS CHANGE IN THE ENTIRE PIECE!
@@deborahskov57 Thanks so much! 😊
You didn’t say what color stain you used and the brand name. Everything looks absolutely gorgeous. You are very good at refinishing. I’m 73 now and don’t too many but I have two dressers to finish yet. Waiting til spring as I moved into an apartment and will have to use my deck for some of the work. Have osteoarthritis now so it’s getting harder to do but I’m determined to finish them before I depart the earth. God bless and keep up the great work. I hate to even think of these dressers in landfills. Linda from Southern Alberta! ❤
Hi Linda, I used General Finishes Gel stain in the colour Nutmeg. I mention it at the 33 min mark in the video. It's always a good thing when you have projects lined up for the future. And refinishing outside in the fresh air is always my favourite ! Good luck with the two dressers. 😊
I felt like I was watching a true artisan at work. The middle drawer wood grain is stunning! The veneer repairs are the best I've seen. The Bakelite and Brass Handles restoration are chef's kiss perfect. It's stunning.
Wow, thanks! Who knew all that beautiful grain was hiding behind all that grime! Thanks for tuning in and Happy New Year! 🎉🤩
Old Furniture is better than new furniture. Old furniture has character. And was made by craftsman. New furniture is mostly cheap pine and MDF Particle board. I’m restoring a china cabinet from 1924. It has lead light rounded glass at the sides and the door. Glass in the door was broken sent it away to the repaired. Hi from Australia.
Greetings from Canada! 🇨🇦 There is definitely something special about vintage furniture. Glass almost always has to be replaced in those older pieces, good luck 🤞with the china cabinet restoration! And thanks for watching.
What a beautiful restoration. Love the nutmeg colour choice 🤗
Thank you! Cheers! ☺️
It looks like you put a lot of hours into this but wow, it’s beautiful. The colour of the stain is perfect, and the wax makes it look nourished with just the right amount of shine.
Thanks, I was really happy with the finish! 💕
It's hard to believe that is the same piece. It is gorgeous!
I know. I'm glad I took a lot of before pics....just so I remembered how really bad it was! 🤢
Thank you for NOT PAINTING! You’re a restoration artist!
Thanks, a few people have thank me for not painting!😂
Wow, the grain came out so good. I so appreciate that you list all your products. Thank you
Thanks, glad it helps! 😄
Better than new/ modern junk furniture!!!!!!❤
Thanks, they certainly don't make them like they used to! 😂
What a Christmas present!
Especially for you! 😂
This peace and your work is just stunning 🎉🎉🎉
Thanks! 😊
Beautiful job! Gorgeous hunk of furniture! Love art deco veneer!
Thanks, Art Deco can really be a show stopper! 🤩
The way the grain flows over the curve on the top piece is incredible.
Nothing like a waterfall front! 😉😍
You are so meticulous. What an amazing job. You obviously love what you do. Perfection❤
My 94-year old mom always asks me where I get my patience from.....if you love what you do....you just do it! ❣️
Its glowing and beautiful
Thanks 😊
So much patience the result was beautiful well ✔️ done
Thanks! 🤩
Wow, that's beautiful! What a beautiful work of art!
Thank you! ☺
So much respect for the incredible amount of time and effort that went into this piece!
I've always been the slow and steady sort of person! 😂
I’m SCREAMING inside this is all so good. 🤩
And those HANDLES! I never would have thought to use Brasso on Bakelite!
They really do shine like new, right? 🤯 Gotta love the internet for tips and tricks!
Wow!! You got so lucky with that piece! It was a hot mess but fixable with patience…nothing was just terrible. It is gorgeous! Excellent job! 🦋
Thanks, I agree it was definitely fixable! You just had to be able to see past its trauma! 🤣
Happy Holidays and A Happy New Year! 🎉🍾🥂🎅🤶
@@lonelyrider606 Same to you!! 🎄❤️🎄
You must of spent so many hours on that and it is stunningly beautiful. If that was my work, I just would not of been able to let it out of my sight. Just saying "Well done" would NEVER be enough. Thank you for sharing this amazing restoration transformation.
Wow, thanks so much for the kind words. It was definitely one of my longest projects. But the end result was worth it.😁 Thanks for tuning in!
Your work is exquisite, can't believe it is the same piece. So much work & love.
Thanks so much! 😊
MAGNIFICENT
Thank you! 😊
Beautiful! You did an amazing job. I bet the guy you bought it from would be amazed at what it looks like now .
Thanks so much, I am glad you liked it! 😄....the familyI bought it from has my RUclips channel so he will probably see it!
In the 1980s I worked for the Health Dept in a small SW Pennsylvania community. I processed paperwork for condemnation and demolition of depilated homes. I can’t tell you how many pieces of depression furniture were carted off in dumpsters. I attempted to salvage a Hoover cupboard and humpback trunk from a house slated for demolition. I arrived too late, as the house was flattened and the debris was being loaded onto dump trucks
Quel dommage 😮
So sad! Luckily there are still some pieces out there although they are becoming harder to find! 😞
ABSOLUTELY BEAUTIFUL!!❤
Thanks so much! 😊
Wow, the old lady is a grande dame again! Beautiful result.
Thanks! and thanks for tuning in! ☺️
Wow, that is just beautiful! The handles stand out so much now. I always wonder if you send photos to the person you bought from? I’m sure the original maker would have been so thrilled that you restored it to this quality. You cannot beat Art Deco for stunning style!
I do sometimes send photos back to the original owner. In this case the owner follows me on You Tube so will probably see it! And I agree with you about the Art Deco style! 🤩. Happy New Year!
Look at the Bakelite handles! So refreshing to see this piece restored. Gorgeous work.
@@ArtDecoFurniture Thanks so much! And Happy New Year 🥳 🥂
A nod to all the wonderful artisans in our life.
🥰🥰🥰
I like the buffet with the lighter trim better than the tall cabinet with the darker trim. I keep wondering what the entire dining room looked like because they probably had a table and chairs to match. It must have been a show stopper. Very swank 😊
I think an entire room of it would be a bit overwhelming! But that's coming from someone who tends to like the simplicity of mid century modern furniture! 😆
that is a spectacular transformation! the piece is gorgeous :) thank you for this channel, your skills are amazing! merry Christmas from Europe
Thanks for the kind words, and Merry Christmas and Happy 2025 from 🇨🇦!
Wow, great job! If I had judged by some of the comments first I wouldn't have watched but its beautiful and proves not every opinion deserves merit!
You can't agree with everyone! And furniture refinishing can be done in so many ways and people have strong feelings about how they think something should be refinished. All anyone can do is what feels right for them! Thanks for watching & Happy Holidays!
Absolutely Masterful ❣️
I appreciate that! It's a great piece! 🤩
Stunning transformation!
@@user-qh7de4fv7m thanks!😊
Remarkable 😮
🥰🥰🥰
WOW. What a sensational restoration.
Thanks so much! ☺️
O seu trabalho foi exemplar.Fez o restauro ao mais pequeno pormenor.Adorei a evolução do velho para o novo.Só conheço 2 restauradores ao seu nível.Parabéns.O vídeo foi fantástico.Adorei❤❤❤❤❤
Thank you for your kind words! This restoration was a lot of work but worth it in the end! 🤩 Thanks for watching my channel!
A very beautiful piece of furniture, especially the handles, which you have sublimated ... 🙏🙏🙏🫶🫶🫶
Always save old solid wood furniture ... 🤗🤗🤗
Thanks, the handles are especially 🔥🔥🔥!
It turned out beautiful. Great job.
@@jshale12 Thanks! 😊
Absolutely gorgeous piece (once you were done with it) ❤
Thanks, it had good "bones"! Just needed a BIT of help! 🤣
Gorgeous!!! Excellent transformation.
Thank you! Cheers!
Wow! What a transformation!
I know!!!! I was so pleased with the results! 🤩
Thanks for sharing this great video I really enjoyed it. Your process is really structured I think that’s what I enjoyed the most. I noticed parts of the video are without music I have to say I prefer those, more relaxing and easier to concentrate on the work
Thanks, glad you enjoyed it (minus the music 🤣)
Eine echte Meisterleistung. Diese vielen Stunden die darin stecken, sind kaum bezahlbar! Großartig! Die Kommode sieht aus wie neu 👍👍👍
Thank you - yes, it took many hours of work! But I enjoy the process and like sharing with others what is possible! 😊 Thanks for watching!
Your hard work really paid off! Beautiful result!🥰
Thanks for watching! 😁
You did an absolutely gorgeous job on this and those handles are simply fantastic. I've never seen a waterfall piece with such striking handles; my bedroom set is jealous.
Thanks so much. The handles are show stoppers for sure! 😍
Fabulous restoration.
Thanks! ☺️
Beautifully restored!
@@kellycullen4300 Thanks Kelly!!😃😃😃
First time seeing your work. Absolutely Stunning!!!! Very happy to subscribe!!!😊
Thanks so much for subscribing! Glad you enjoyed it ☺️
Absolutely beautiful!❤
Excellent work! Thank you
@@MrCedad Thank you for tuning in!
So glad you kept the hardware. It was so lovely and none were missing ya!
It's so rare to have all the pieces intact and not missing! Thanks. 🙏
from a sow's ear to a silk purse..very lovely..
Thanks! ☺️
Ciao, carissima ❤❤❤
È venuto fuori un capolavoro 👏👏👏
Sei bravissima ❤❤❤
Auguri di buone feste 🎄🎅❤️ da Roma 😊
Thanks for the kind words! And Merry Christmas and Happy 2025 to you! 🎄🇨🇦🎉 Thanks for watching! 😍
My first video of watching you. Holy mackerel woman! Love your voice. Music and most of this incredible restoration. I watch 12 others and only one other woman. Angie from transcend furniture. Well done. You have now another subscriber. Merry Christmas 🎄🌴😎
Thanks so much for subscribing! Glad you enjoyed it. Angie from Transcend is great! Merry Christmas and Happy 2025 from 🇨🇦 🥶
It would be nice to see both pieces together. Great job.....
I may still photograph them together....
@@mcmredo Is that a zebrawood veneer under the top drawers?
Wow!!! I’m very impressed with your skill, patience, and the fabulous outcome of your work!
That's so nice of you to say! 🥂
@ Well deserved praise
What a beautiful job you've done! All of your hard work and attention to detail paid off. Happy holidays and stay warm!! 🎉
Thanks so much! Happy Holidays to you too! 🎄🇨🇦🎉
I’m so glad the original handles were all there!
I agree, that was icing on the cake! 😂
Such beautiful lines this piece has.
💯 Agree! Thanks for watching 👀
I really appreciate how well you cleaned the piece. Never heard of sandpaper eraser. Gorgeous!
Thanks, I usually don't clean my pieces, I just go straight into removing the finish, but when pieces are this bad I have to! 😂
I think MCM furniture is the most timeless design...I could have a house full of MCM furniture. However, a well-restored Art Deco piece is a Thing of Beauty. Well done! I would LOVE to see both pieces staged together! I have subscribed, so maybe I’ll get to see some beautiful photos of these two amazing pieces 😂
Thanks, I do have a soft spot for mcm pieces! I still have both pieces so you may get your wish! 😉
You are so talented. Thank you for being so generous with your education.
I'm glad you enjoyed the video! I love sharing the process 😊
What a spectacular restoration! Well done! And such a beautiful piece.
Thanks!🤭
Beautiful job!
Thank you so much 😀
I love watching you work and the results - I have some old pieces like this - they have so much character - I even have a small chest in the shed that is waiting on me to come save it and since I have learned a lot from watching you I feel inspired -
Glad to be of help! If you go into a refinishing job with the mindset that it doesn't have to all be done in a day or two you should be fine! 🤣 Good luck!
Katie you are such a furniture magician!!! Wow! It turned out incredible! I wished I lived near you, I have a very old midcentury modern coffee table that my husband grandfather made. It's over 80 years old with brass X inlays in each corner. We love it but it needs some TLC.
🤣 Wrong channel I think! Salvaged by K.Scott is a great channel and she is a fellow Canadian to boot! 😍
@@mcmredo haha yes, I must've clicked on the wrong video! Yes salvaged by Kate is very talented! It lead me to your channel!
Love the nutmeg stain. Gives the lighter pieces the same tone as the darker walnut❤❤❤
@@michellesutton202 thanks, I thought so too!
This took an enormous amount of patience. Amazing!
It did! And thanks!😊
Oh I love it !!!!!!!
Well done!
Thanks!☺️
Well dang…now I’m not sure which I like better. The lighter trim on this buffet or the darker trim on its matching buffet. They both look great!
🤣 I agree, I like them both! Thanks for watching!
Magnificent!! I’ve never seen such a beautiful transformation ❤
Thanks, it was definitely a drastic before and after transformation!🤩🤩🤩
OMG that is a wonderful job. Your attention to detail is truly praiseworthy. I was stunned by the result. Those handles are so beautiful. Can you post it to Australia? Lol. Gayle in oz, cheers ❤
I would if I could! 🤣 Thanks for tuning in from 🇦🇺, It's a long way from 🇨🇦
Excellent choice to dismantle the drawers
Thanks!
Bravo 👏🏼
Thanks! 🤩
What a bloody ton of work !!! Excellent outcome ❤
It was more like a ton and a half! 😂 Thanks for tuning in! And Happy 2025! 🤩🎉
Beautiful! You are so skilled at your craft. I love seeing you work
❤❤
❣️Thanks for your kind words❣️ Happy New Year!!
That is BEAUTIFUL!
Thanks! ☺️
