Upon unboxing, I was immediately upset at how the rails were very noticeably bent. But I kept going, all tools needed to assemble were included ruclips.net/user/postUgkxqtX4Dxs6aecAZEuz6GY5-d81YecKCshn and I had it set up in about 30 minutes. Honestly I love this thing, make sure to read the measurements and measure your space so you know if it'll work for you. I bought this to put inside my closet, underneath where I hang my clothes and it is absolutely perfect! It is VERY sturdy and all drawers glide easily and mine are stuffed, and they are still flush when closed.
I have watched over a hundred RUclips videos on redoing furniture and each one was either to buy a certain type of paint or brand or it was too complicated, you had to use chalk paint and then had to wax to get the effect yada yada yada. I just love your videos...simple, uncomplicated and very user friendly for a person who just wants to redo furniture. Thank you so much for your soft voiced detailed information and instructions and the beautiful pieces you turn out. Keep up the good work.
Sandra WestleyUK, I absolutely agree with everything you have said, others just make it so complicated and are probably artists, where as I haven’t got an artistic bone in my body,😂 and I find it totally disheartening with all the stuff you need for a simple repaint job, I don’t want loads of depth or anything else,just make a job of what I’m painting, thanks so much.
Wow, from drab to gorgeous and I’m happy to have finally found a upcycle tutorial I can both watch and listen to ! No high pitched whiny voice, advertising of this or that product. The accompanying music was lovely and beautifully edited without drowning out your calm demonstration. I subscribed to your channel today and look forward to watching more of your content. Well done 👏🏻
Beautiful calming presentation, no shouting, quite therapeutic in how you present your tutorial, for myself I find It easier and more enjoyable learning, after watching over 100 videos, this was a real joy, and I now feel ready with confidence to start whitewashing my poor old neglected bedside tables. Thank you so much! 🤗
So I did your technique. It came out so amazing! My sister who is an interior designer was so impressed she couldn’t believe the finish. I used a stripper and that was such a nightmare! Then I used the pickle stain. I went one step further and added a clear coat. I did this on a dine table.
@@marlinadykema6474 I chose not to topcoat it bc I had heard most would darken the color and make it look shinier, if you really need a topcoat for like a dining room table type situation I have heard general finishes flat out flat doesn’t darken it. I personally would just leave it raw and just sand it if something spills on it or use white wax unless it were something high traffic
Paper towels leave micro woodsy splinters which may settle in the wood grain. A microfiber rag doesn’t deposit anything. Lovely piece❣️For Florida this look would be great! 😎🌴🌻
Girl thank you so much for this video. I haven't done this yet because I was wanting to research it first but you made this so much better and I know exactly what to do now. 😁
Thank you for simplifying the process. I have a lot of really good solid wood furniture and was looking on how to change color. mixing lye and hydro peroxin, etc. Thank you, thank you, thank you.
Wow, this looks really stunning!!! I wonder why you only have just about 2k subs. What I think, from my personal view, I would love to have a before and after in the end of your videos:)
Beautiful! I am loving your Chanel! Thanks for sharing all of your techniques and hacks. You are darling and do such a great job! 👏 👏 👏. I imagine we would be great furniture flipping friends if we lived anywhere close! You have such a magnetic, fun personality. Please keep sharing!
Wish I had that belt sander lol..i just had to get this black coat of idk what off a dining table and chairs, I still have 2 more chairs but, it's been tedious!! Beautiful, thank you so much for everything you show us!
Did you use any kind of top coat or oil to finish? I would like to try this technique on my kitchen cabinets but I'm thinking I need some kind of top coat for that application.
Hi! This is beautiful! If one were to stop at bleaching, do you still need to stain to lock in the tone/preserve the tone? Also...do you have to apply a pre-stain of any kind or does the bleaching act as that step...?
Love your video and the dresser. Do you apply the stain directly after/on the last bleaching step? Also do you apply any top varnish to protect the dresser from water stains? If no, then why not? What would the varnish layer do to the appearance of the dresser? I want to do this to a table but need to protect it from water stains.
Thanks for your detailed video. I have an old dresser my grandfather made, from another old oak piece, It is now over one hundred years old, the dresser is really dark, this staining and lightening process will be great.
I love orange red wood, but only if it’s in incredible shape, like our master bedroom suite! I bought it very gently used June of 2012! It’s high end Thomasville and it’s Gorgeous still! It’s burle and tiger oak mix, a beauty! I’m just not crazy about the double mirrors over my dresser. I have not seen a mirror yet for the price that I like better though, so I’m waiting. Hubby likes the mirrors, I’m the one that cleans them. I’d rather clean one, than 2 tall ones. 😆 🥰 I love ❤️ that look you did! Would be so beautiful our coastal rustic craftsman master bedroom!
I truly love this video, it's very instructive I love the music in the background it's so calming I have one question after you apply the water with the Bleach do you have to wipe it off so it doesn't have reaction to the whitewash
Yay! This is exactly what I want to do with the drawers of a dresser. Thank you! I will be painting the base black and thought I'd try your Sherwin Williams paint from Lowes. Or maybe the Valspar Cabinet and Door … I like the idea of not having to top coat. But 30 days to cure? Wow! How is your pantry cabinet holding up?
This finish is really strong!! Valspar enamel is definitely going in my regular rotation of paints, perfect for heavy use areas like chairs, tables and cabinets
Hello sweet girl boy this piece came out amazing I am working on a piece and I have it down to the Royal I used the bleach I did it twice I think I’m going to be doing it again tomorrow and I will be using a spray bottle like you did because I painted it on. Left in the sun to get lighter, the only issue was I have some grooves on the legs so I had to get some Orangewood stripper applied in the grooves until they got lighter. Tomorrow I will be bleaching it again hopefully it comes out a lighter color which it has already on the top I love it my question is this do I have to use the Minwax White paint you used? Or can I use my white paint water it down and apply it? Thank you for sharing you are amazing and all the work that you do love watching you and listening to you I know it comes from the heart. Have a blessed day thank you
I love it! 😍😍😍 I have been wanting to try this method and your video just inspired me even more! Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge and creativity! Blessings 🙏🏼☺️
I want to do this on an antique wash stand. I'm really hoping it gets rid of the yellow/orange tones in the old oak. The finish on this dresser is beautiful.
Oh it definitely will! I’ve done this a bunch of times now, I will add that I’ve learned to apply vinegar after the dresser is fully dry to neutralize the bleach so your wood stays strong ❤️
@@blacksheephouse Thank you for responding to my fear and cluing me in on the vinegar. In the 70's I refinished many oak pieces, not minding the natural colors of the oak. I would tone it down with a pecan stain , which worked pretty well. I still have access to those pieces and they are way too dark for me today. Thanks again for your advice!
Yes you’ll need to seal it for sure with it being exposed to water and stuff. Any clear topcoat will do the trick, you can test a small area to see how much the topcoat will deepen your wood color
So beautiful! Would that be finish be protected from spills? I have a Duncan Phyphe dining table and sideboard that I would love to do this to. Thanks for sharing!
After using the mixture of half water and half bleach. You have to use his other technique of half water and half vinegar to neutralize the bleach. I have doubts in this step. Thanks!
Make sure after each step the piece is completely dry before moving onto the vinegar, also check out my video using a taupe wash which cancels out the red tones even better than white ruclips.net/video/BifWflPiAu8/видео.html

Love the hardware hack. Had no idea the little piece was in there!
Like the hardware lot better too... looks sooo nice natural wood.
Did you use any kind of top coat or oil to finish? I would like to try this technique on my kitchen cabinets but I'm thinking I need some kind of top coat for that application.
I absolutely love this refinish. Cant wait to try my bedroom set. Thanks so much.

My first time really looking into white washing a piece. Great information! Inspired to try it out now!
love the look. Thanks for sharing some awesome tips, ill definitely be trying this.
Thank you so much for this video- this old lady has never done this . I’m in the process right now of doing this to a family oak table
I’m getting ready to do an old cherry coffee table 🤗👍🏻
Wowwww, that's beautiful, a great look for cherry wood.
Thanks! I didn’t realize it was cherry, thanks for spotting that for me!
I love the finish, well done and thanks so much for sharing 👍👌😊😊

Fantastic video!! I am doing a chevron table and going to follow your steps!
Wonderful!

Beautiful !!! What an awesome transformation!!!
Hey your hair is dark here. You r a true artist, there is variety even with your hair, love it.
Fabulous tutorial & final 5:58 result!
First time I’ve seen someone use a belt sander though😊. Is that easier than stripper & an orbital sander?
The background music is so beautiful. Who is it sung by ?
Just amazing!👍🏻
So simple. Love it. I'll do this tomorrow.
Your hardware hack is a Great Idea !!!!
Thank you so much!
It's BEAUTIFUL!!!
Love your hack.
Giving this a try. I have a Mexican pine dining set that I hate the sight of due to turning orange
It’ll look perfect on that!!! 👏
I truly love this video, it's very instructive I love the music in the background it's so calming I have one question after you apply the water with the Bleach do you have to wipe it off so it doesn't have reaction to the whitewash

WOW again! this is awesome, thanks so much!
Wow this is such a stunning piece 😍
It’s beautiful
Love it and you taught me what it is what I want to do ❤
Can you do a video on how to tell if it’s real wood ? Love your videos
Lovely! Did you have to neutralise the bleach?
Absolutely stunning!!
Lovely job!!! Nicely done!
This turned out soooo good! Thanks for sharing!
Yay! This is exactly what I want to do with the drawers of a dresser. Thank you! I will be painting the base black and thought I'd try your Sherwin Williams paint from Lowes.

Beautiful dresser
Did you put a top coat sealer? I am going to try this. Love all your videos. Thank you.
Thank you! I didn’t on this one but general finishes dead flat is the only one that won’t deepen the color so go with that if you do
Great job turned out gorgeous!!
Thank you!
Beautiful! Also, love the music in the background. :)
Yes, so pretty. What song is it
Victoria vansicklin it is Fly Free by Hartley
This is sooooo nice thank you for shareing thid x
Love love!
beautiful work and thank you for your tips!
Mo Havie, thank you, glad they were helpful!
Great job! It looks gorgeous! The hack about removing the escutcheon plates from the hardware is ingenious!
Beautiful job!
I love it! 😍😍😍
I have been wanting to try this method and your video just inspired me even more! Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge and creativity! Blessings 🙏🏼☺️
Love this!!

Looks really good it's interesting it looks like the drawers have keys to lock them do you have the keys?
love it doing my dining table like this but do o have to seal the top of dining table for too much use
Yes you’ll need to seal it for sure with it being exposed to water and stuff. Any clear topcoat will do the trick, you can test a small area to see how much the topcoat will deepen your wood color
Wow great job
This is wonderful! Thank you!
Megan you’re welcome! I hope you’ll give it a try!
If you strip first it sands better👍
BEAUTIFUL!ty. name of the music?? nice touch watching with background music.
Do you think this would work on kitchen cabinets? maybe with a topcoat of some sort?
Finally found a video that someone did it right! Thank you, I’ll be doing this to my cabinets!😍
I’m so glad!
So beautiful! Would that be finish be protected from spills? I have a Duncan Phyphe dining table and sideboard that I would love to do this to. Thanks for sharing!
Beautiful
Amazing I'm doing this.. ❤️❤️
Loving it!😍
Can you use a different color of paint for the white wash ?
Beautiful!
