- What is under all that blue and pink paint? While this Art Deco Vanity appears to be very well made, paint can be used to hide a lot of repaired damage and flaws so I had no idea what I was going to find when I stripped this vanity.
Watch the video to see what was uncovered when I stripped it...
This video contains step by step instructions showing you how to strip paint from furniture. It also shows you how to stain furniture so you do not have to wait 72 hours to topcoat. Want to know how to clean brass hardware on furniture? This video shows you how easy it is!

I cant believe such high quality wood was under that paint. I was expecting a lot more damage. Makes me wonder why they painted it.
I think she did it to force her parents into buying her a new set. A little passive aggressive? I am just glad that I was able to take it off their hands and bring it back to life.
Or maybe she was a teen trying to give some more life to her room, she had that old dresser that didn't really make sense with her decoration, talked to her parents about the dresser and they didn't really give much mind to it since it was some old furniture and let her paint it because she liked DIYing (even if she is kinda bad at it)
Like, I dont think the BIIG majority of people stop to think "this old furniture is high quality" and they are more like "I don't give much value to this furniture since it's old", we have to remember it's a renewed furniture it probably wasn't as pretty as it is now with the amazing work she did.
I think it's just a "your trash is my treasure" kind of situation not a "passive aggressive way of making her parents make her buy new furniture" :^0
Your comments are spot on. I especially appreciate your noting that PA seems unlikely.
@@dangeroushanako5623 that makes sense :)
They probably had it and wanted a change. It is gorgeous. But i don't know of teens that would go mmm that wood staining is goregous. I want that. That's probably why it was painted. It was more suited to their taste.
It was a hidden treasure! This is a piece manufactured in the way old pieces were made! To last for generations to come! You did amazing job and the piece is breathtaking!
They do t make furniture like this anymore. They make cheap made in China manufactured furnishings, that is NOT furniture in my mind anyway. I even have 2 end tables that have metal bases and the tops and bottoms. are a light grey laminate. I love metal, wrought iron, etc, but couldn’t find what I really wanted which was metal with marble tops and bottoms. So I went less expensive and bought these this time around. I love them, but how long will they last? I prefer all wood and or some marble, granite or stone accents or tops. Stone or marble tops on furniture preserves the wood tops a lot longer also, I think. This vanity she refinished is Stunning 😍 job well done!
This furniture had been listed on FBM for over 3 months. They started at $350 and had steadily dropped the price. When I finally went to get it they said they were going to have the trash men take it away if no one answered their ad for $50.
Exactly. Considering the age of some pieces would be my guideline as to whether to paint or not. I think of horrible thoughts like, what if this is the only one of its kind left? Survival piece, oh I get so sad then. Sounds silly I know but it is history.
@@FurnitureFlippingForProfit 😵💫😱
😲 😳 So glad you rescued her.
40 years a refinisher here, nice job. You brought back it's basic elegance.
Wow, this is the best hidden treasure restoration I've seen in a year. Sorry to say, folks dont always know what pieces NOT to paint... no shade intended, its just a learning process for all of us.
Some people just like to add their own flair to things and it's reasonable. Repaints DIYs look stunning for different things. Moriah Elizabeth's videos are beautiful.

I love seeing people UNPAINTING beautiful vintage and antique furniture. What a gem. Nice job
Thank you so much!
I am a fanatic when it comes to Art Deco. This piece is absolutely priceless. What a jewel!!
That wood underneath the paint was really nice. Glad to see the great wood there. Thanks for your work.
Thank you very much!
I’m proud of the daughter for giving a shot at something that was completely unfamiliar to her! There was no way my parents would have allowed me to do this to my furniture, and believe me, I would have wanted to! 😉
As it turned out, my daughter used my childhood bedroom furniture until she got her great grandmother’s beautiful set. I turned one of “our” old dressers into a doll house.
Honestly, I didn't like her color choices and the paint wasn't the right type and/or she didn't prep the surface properly, but she didn't do a terrible job at painting. I've seen so many of these other channels restore something painted where the paint is everywhere, on the insides, outsides, sides of the drawers, overspray and drips. Hopefully that kid tries again after learning a little more.
The restored vanity is incredible but I also liked the pink and blue. I feel like this piece went from a childs room to the study. Almost like the piece "grew up."
Fantastic job! I love to see woodgrain rather than paint.
I agree. And THAT grain is amazing!
I see a trend of un-painting furniture. So glad because the natural wood is so gorgeous!
It is making a slow comeback!
I’m always stunned when I see the beautiful grain people cover with paint! You uncovered a gorgeous piece!
makes me cry when good wood is painted..good job on restoring it...
I agree. I was so glad that I was able to figure out how to restore it!
Wow! I’d forgotten how beautiful wood, and brass, could be. Thank you for sharing your work, and thank you for the love you show to rescuing old furniture.
Thanks Beth. When I sell furniture my clients frequently tell me that they can see the care that went into refinishing the piece. Glad you see it too!
That’s a stunning piece of furniture very well restored. I was interested to hear a clear explanation of how you did it. Thank you
Glad you enjoyed it! I try to be clear and concise without being too wordy.
WOOOWWW!!! What a gorgeous hidden treasure!! Like you, I kept waiting to see if there was some kind of hidden damage under all that paint, but it was flawless!! The colors the previous owner chose, while hideous, were also interesting. Art Deco furniture was very popular in South Florida in the 1920’s and when a lot of Miami Beach was being developed, hotels used them in their lobbies, rooms, etc. So when it became the rage again in the 80’s and buildings were being restored, they painted those buildings in the pinks and blues (basically pastels) like this piece. Unfortunately, people started painting everything these colors and it was waaayy overdone I’m from Miami (lived in Dallas for 23yrs now) and unless you know the history of Art Deco, most associate it with pastel colors (which is why the choice of colors were interesting to me) instead of style/shape of furniture for that period. Sorry for the long post (and little history lesson of S FL). I’m still just in awe of this treasure you found and the incredible job you did refinishing it.💜💜💜
Thank you. I love history too. I am happy to see Mid Century Modern making a come back too because the lines are so clean and simple. I recently did an MCM dresser and thought I was going to get by without damage until I stripped that last side and there I found a bunch of poorly repaired damaged wood. The wood filler was not even smooth. If I had examined it more carefully I would have seen it. This time I did look at it carefully so I did not think there was damage (or else it had been repaired very well) The link to the other video is here: ruclips.net/video/78Sq46fUE_4/видео.html
Why anyone would hide a beautiful woodgrain & brass finish under a hideous paint job amazes me. However, your patience and skill have put it to right. A beauty. Thank you for sharing !
Thank you very much!
I Love that you recognized what a Gem this piece was! It’s a Beauty😍
Hi again Patti O! I felt very lucky to have found it. When I saw the veneer on the inside and OUTSIDE of the drawers I knew it was a high quality piece but was even happier when it was not damaged under the paint.
What a treasure! As for me, this piece would never have been a candidate for paint to begin with. Great restoration!
Nothing beats the classic rich look of solid quality wood furniture, well done.
I agree! Thank you for watching and thank for your comments.
I got so excited when you took that paint off. Oh my goodness that wood grain! I love how this turned out. Absolutely beautiful!
Thanks for your comments and thanks for watching!
*Wow*. Talk about a glow-up.
* makes grabby hands * That's GORGEOUS!!!!!
I can't get over the fact people destroy beautiful furniture with tacky paint. That wood is magical. You do awesome work!
Thank you so much!
I really love the treasure that was underneath. Sometimes I wish there was a Furniture police protect pieces furniture like this one.
LOL! Agreed. The next best thing is to TEACH PEOPLE how to refinish them via a RUclips channel. Oh yeah... I have a RUclips Channel! LOL! Thanks for watching!
Gorgeous! I have seen too many doing this backwards and painting over beautiful wood finishes! Thank you for bringing out the woods beauty!
I saw another flipper stripping some furniture and they said that in 10 years from now we will all be stripping off the paint that we are putting on furniture now. Probably true. BUT look at the furniture for sale in the stores- that represents what is selling now. Most of it is painted! That what sells. So, when I flip furniture I frequently flip it. There are plenty of tutorials how to paint furniture so my videos tend to be more about restoring furniture to look like it did originally or restyling old looking furniture to make it look modern.
I love how she tells every product she uses and why!
I try to be very clear so you can duplicate my technique if you so desire.
Such a beautiful piece! I'm so glad that you saved it. That wood is gorgeous and deserves to be shown. Thank you for it's reveal! 🙂👍
My pleasure! Glad you liked it!!!
I was oohing and aahing with you! What a stunning piece! Absolutely love it, fantastic job bringing it back to its original glory.
Thank you Julia.
That wood grain is gorgeous!
INCREDIBLY BEAUTIFUL RESTORATION!!!💖💖💖💖💖
What a beautiful piece! This was like unwrapping a gift!
Fortunately, there were no structural or damage issues, so you could focus on the finishes. IDK why anyone would paint over such beautiful grain. Maybe, it first happened in the 70's, when bright colors were in style (?). This is a spectacular piece. I'm glad you kept it in the original vanity style.
Great work! That was truly the "saving" of that pink and blue mess!
Can never understand why people paint beautiful furniture like this and hide the proper beauty underneath what ever awful colour paint they choose to paint over it with. Thank you for restoring this back to its former beauty.
I agree! Glad you enjoyed it!
I love the step by step stripping tutorial. I wish I could have seen it earlier! But I understand it now. Thank you so much! Absolutely gorgeous restoration!
Thank you. Glad it was helpful
Gorgeous! It always hurts to see beautiful wood painted over.
Agreed!
Beautiful furniture set! I am so jealous! I LOVE that style but have yet to find anything this gorgeous! I can't wait to see what you do with it!
Thank you. I am always amazed what I find on FBM!!! It is like treasure hunting!
I like your four step process…. It makes a lot of sense and I’m going to utilize your method next time I strip a piece. Did that one can suffice for this piece!
I would call this a Sleeping Beauty…what wondrous natural beauty you revealed under that hideous paint!
Lovely! Glad it was helpful. I used less than the whole large can of stripper
Definitely a hidden treasure. You make it look easy!
Thanks!
Thank you for appreciating this piece's wood-color qualities.
First I've seen where time was taken to do the insides of the drawers...Wonderful!
I was shocked what a difference it made. Think I will do that from now on. It did not take much additional time!!!
Wow! I love it when you find such a beautiful wood grain under all that goo. Thanks for bringing it back to life!
Thanks!
I also love to refinish furniture. It's so rewarding!!
What a beautiful piece of furniture! That buried wood! Wow! ❤️
Yes! It was shocking to see it revealed. Thanks for watching
I always feel like I’m having a book/written piece read to me when watching your videos! The pieces came out beautiful.
Thanks for watching!
What a beautiful piece of furniture under that horrible blue and pink paint
Agreed! I asked the owner what it looked like under the paint and they shrugged and said "i don't know.... It was wood" LOL!
Wow thank goodness you saved this beautiful piece!
Thank goodness you rescued this wonderful piece of art deco furniture from its degrading state. It's beautiful...a real treasure.
In addition to plastic scraper - please consider using a plastic bristle brush for scratching paint out of seams/crevices
Hi I just bought some plastic scrapers. Guess I could use a tooth brush?
You certainly turned that into a beauty! Gorgeous!
Thank you! Cheers!
Wow, thank you for saving that beautiful wood
Oh my word ! What a transformation. You did an amazing job. Thank you for sharing.
🐼 Big Bear Hugs from a 68 yr old grandma in Kirby, Texas, USA 🐼 ❤ 🎀 ❤
Thanks for watching!
The end result is beautiful. I admire your dedication and patience during the restoration. I couldn't do it.
You did an amazing job getting the paint off. I learned so much!
Glad it was helpful. I try to make every video informative and include new info or products. I hope you watch some of my other videos too.
great job. it's always nice to see what's under some garbage latex
agreed!
This was absolutely a beautiful flip! I have several pieces that I really want to start working on, however I just had back surgery so I have to wait. Watching these kind of videos gives me so many good tips!
That piece is absolutely beautiful!
What a hidden gem! Very beautiful!
LOL! Indeed! Thanks.
That piece is magnificent! I'm speechless.👏👏👏👏👏
Thank you! Cheers!
How lovely!!! Love the Art Deco period. You restored a treasure!
Thank you so much! I agree! I love the clean lines. The workmanship that went into this is amazing!
Absolutely gorgeous! 😍 ❤️ ❤️
Thank you so very much!!!
OMG... just OMG... gorgeous.
LOL!!! THANKS!!!
Good job blending the two shades on the top! I’ve used Varathane for years; good stuff! It’s a wonderful save!
That wood is beautiful.
Stunning end result. Back to the beginning! Art Deco is so gorgeous!
Thank you!
OMGOSH!!!! Im so happy you rescued this peice of furniture
JOB WELL DONE👍
Thank you!! 😊
Okay, that blew me away! It is so beautiful. I’m guessing that the young girl who painted it had no idea what she was doing by covering up that fantastic wood.
I doubt it. I think she was just trying her best to make it look as bad as possible so her parents would buy her a new bedroom set- which they DID!
@@FurnitureFlippingForProfit not sure why you feel justified in attributing malice to a kid just because you don't like her painting
I'd be interested in seeing a video on how you assess the pieces to decide if they'll be worth your efforts. I for one would NEVER have suspected the beautiful wood that was being held prisoner by that awful paint job. It's very satisfying that artisans like yourself are still out there. So glad I found your channel.
Great suggestion!
I need to go back over a piece that I have been working on! Someone painted it 5 times!! One layer of paint is oil based enamel! I wiil try some of these step! Thank you for the great tips! Your piece of furniture is amazing!
Excelente trabalho!!! Ficou lindo!!!
Thank you!
I love the art deco. Beautiful work.
I love the way you restore, bring out the beauty of the wood.
Thank you Celestina.
In the teen's defense, pastel art deco is such a cool idea. More a case of execution being flawed. [And I would have LOVED seeing hints of patterns alongside solid colors.]
BUT, that said, I do love the restoration finish in the end. The wood veneer is so pretty.
The wood grain is so beautiful I would never have painted this unless it was damaged beyond my skill level to repair.
Two thumbs up! Thanks for sharing and bringing it back to it's original beauty.
Yeah! Thanks!
I love art deco stuff so very much and this is no exception. Such a gorgeous result.
Thank you so much!
It's gorgeous. I love how you explain everything.
Finally! Someone who isn’t painting, modifying and destroying old furniture.
Thank you!
Wow gorgeous! It so nice to unbury a treasure like this!
Well said- it WAS like uncovering a buried treasure!
You have made me so happy! I finally have a name for the wood my dresser and bureau are made with. I suspected they were from the twenties or thirties, I think my mother got them when my grandmother passed. That would mean they belonged to my grandmother when she was a young woman. The top and sides are stained a deeper brown than the drawer fronts, I have a feeling my father had a hand in that. My mother thought it was Waterfall, but it didn't look exactly like the pictures of Waterfall furniture I have seen.
I am glad you liked the video and learned something!
Oh pretty!!!! Love the grain in this piece. Just gorgeous! You did good!
Thank you so much!
Oh wow!! What an absolutely GORGEOUS piece!! Outstanding job bringing it back to life!
Thank you Kerry!
You did a beautiful job on this vanity. Love it 💕
Absolutely gorgeous
Thank you!
thank you for saving that beautiful piece of furniture. ❤
I am glad you enjoyed the video. Thank you for your support.
What a beautiful transformation!
Thank you so much!
So beautiful. I saw this post early this morning and then lost it.... has taken all day, but I found it and it was worth waiting to see.
Glad you enjoyed it!
Wreszcie , wreszcie prawdziwa renowacja! :) Tak trzymać. Chapeu bas.:)))
This was indeed a true restoration. Thanks for watching!
My Favorite so far. Beautiful!
What a wonderful job you did with that art deco vanity!
Thank you Jens!
great save! so beautiful!
Thank you! Cheers!
Wow. The difference was awesome. I like the tips that you give as I am fixing to attempt to refinish a 65 year old dresser.
You can do it! Just leave a comment if you have any ? about your dresser.
This is breathtaking!! I have learned so much from watching your channel. Thanks for all your hard work. You are a great teacher.
You are so welcome!
You hit the jackpot with this find. I hope you don't break up the set!
Hi.I will list the vanity and show them the chest. If they want to buy it I will finish it to match. If not, I will stain it a little darker and sell it separately. The chest is blue and pink too!
WOW, that is one BEAUTIFUL PIECE!!!! I ABSOLUTELY LOVE ART DECO, AND YOU DID SUCH A TERRIFIC JOB!!!! I used to refinish EXACTLY the way that you do, however, I didn't use the Face Masks like you. I wish I had!!!!
Thank you so much!
Wow!!! Absolutely 🤩 absolutely beautiful!!
Thank you very much!
Such amazing, gorgeous wood! Girl you did GOOD!
Thank you Frankie!!!
Very very informative.. you give excellent directions on the 4 step process to remove paint. I’ve never seen that before! What a beautiful piece!
Glad it was helpful!
OMGOSH that vanity is Gorgeous! I hope with all that hard work, you will keep it! Would love to see the matching dresser finished also. I have an old dresser. Looks like oak, perhaps tiger oak on the drawers. It is a dark stain on the wood. Looks original. I was going to paint it, but hubby wants us to restore it and stain it instead. Our bedroom suit is Thomasville in a dark red golden oak stain. The Wood is oak. Even though the vanity sis the an exact match in style or color, it is oak I believe. I’d really like to refinish it somehow. I dream about painting it ivory, but I think on what hubby said.
Get your husband to strip it (the hard part) and you stain it ( the easy part) Then you will both be happy! Medium walnut or dark walnut is popular now. I love oak! The grain is gorgeous and it will last forever. If you paint oak you have the grain to deal with so you need to fill in the grain. UGH! no fun! I think you would be happy if you stained it-even if it took a little longer.
@@FurnitureFlippingForProfit it’s quite dark already. It almost like our bedroom suit. It’s a dark red oak, but in the dark side vs the red side.
