    This really brings back memories. We never lived in a house with a fireplace, so for Christmas my Mum would remove the free-standing (no rails) bookcase headboard from one of the bedrooms and turn it into an ersatz fireplace for the "Rumpus Room". Since the headboard was returned to the bedroom after Christmas she did her transformation with brick patterned paper, a long board for a mantle shelf and the 1950's electric fireplace (the kind with red light bulbs and a little fans that to make the light flicker) that had traveled with us from house to house. A nice memory for Mother's Day. Thank you.

    I'm so glad that nobody else wanted the headboard.
    It was waiting for YOU to come up with an idea to create something out of it.
    I'm guessing that about 60%+ of the furniture in your home is one of a kind.
    I love it, Angie! 🤟
    Thanks! 👍

    One of the reasons I love your channel is how you don't give up on making a piece the most beautiful it can be. Your eye for detail gives your pieces so much elegance. I have said before, your videos are educational in the art of woodworking and restoring. It would be a privilege to have one of your furniture restorations in my home.❤ You're an artist Angie😊

    After your comment about pressed wood I'm starting to change my mind about it. I still heavily prefer solid wood but I now realize it's about understanding the purpose and using the right techniques to refinish them. 6:30

    • @Abmotsad
      @Abmotsad 5 месяцев назад +6

      I used to feel the same way, but once I learned to veneer and laminate, I fully embraced high-quality plywoods and MDF. For some purposes, pressed wood is simply better. For instance, real wood is not as good as MDF for speaker cabinets.

    I can’t emphasize enough, how happy and also relaxing it is to see your new video, Angie. For me it is late Sunday evening, right before the start of the new working week, and your videos help me relax and prep for a good night sleep. Writing this before even finishing the video, I know that the final result is going to be beautiful! Seeing a wreck being put back to life produces some kind of special furniture seratonin, I guess 😊

    I’m also so excited because that Odie’s walnut stain is exactly the color I need for a piece I’m redoing.
