    This Challenge is hosted by Lemons to Lemonade TX. The goal was to create fall inspired , magical, spell-binding or spooky pieces of furniture.
    Link to the playlist with all of the other channels who participated in this challenge:
    • Halloween/Fall Furnitu...
    My piece was a 20£ vintage dresser which I sanded down, and used a router to create many small faux drawers. I replaced damaged veneer and applied Danish oil to make the wood look beautiful. I used orange scented bees wax for the inside of the dresser, the back and the drawers. Label pulls were attached to complete the look.
    Thanks for watching.

Your editing and voice overs add to the entertainment value of your videos. AND YOU TEACH at the same time. Well done Sir.👍

    Stunning transformation! At the first of the video, I thought this would be a card catalog like we used in libraries in ancient days. The result is charming, and I especially like the "secret" jewelry boxes on the top. the variety of colors of the wood is another charmer. Super-nice work!

    This work brought life back for a piece that may have ended up in a landfill. Your attention to detail as usual is beyond excellent. The fact you didn't stain the wood and let the natural color stand out is also excellent. This is a total keeper with a new lease on life. WOW! Thanks for the touch of multi faux drawers. A different imaginative choice. NEXT........Lol

I wish all furniture flipper/restorers/rescuers used beautiful piano music in their soundtracks. You and Barry from Mad City Modern are my favorites for watching an artist preserve the beauty of the wood. I admire both of you for being brave enough to tackle restoration rather than just painting. I hope someday I will have the skills to do what you do.
