@@polgara28 Amen! Angie, you don't EVER need to apologize for your choices because you are a proven artist. Let any negative feedback slide off your amazing head, since those that dish it out are obviously envious of your genuine and natural abilities.
Totally agree! This set is beautiful! I love the color & texture combo and the black hardware. Well done! And for those who don’t like it, they’ll find something else. That’s the beauty of choice :-) I’d love this set in my house.
Exactly! You are incredibly talented and don’t have to apologize for your artistic choices, which I think is stunning! I LOVE the gray wash. Of course I love anything in the gray tones vs beige/browns when it comes to neutral colors. And the pop of black for the hardware is just chefs kiss perfection. Well done, Angie!!💜
Of course it's not everyone's cup of tea, lots of us like coffee, but i think we're all here because of your great vision and beautiful energy, that's what we all like❤️
I bag on these laminate pieces all the time “ New from Montgomery Ward’s ( in 1974 ! ) the Crapola Collection from the Fauxwood line! “ or something like that. But you’re right, they have stood the test of time. And they have at least three things going for them. 1. They’re usually cheap, making for a better margin 2. No one is going to call them antiques and bag on you for painting them and 3. In keeping them out out of the landfill they won’t get ground up for compost and poison someone’s tomatoes. In addition they usually turn out well ( yours did ) so it’s a winning proposition all around.
I’m always sad when your video ends. I’ve already watched all of your videos, and even rewatched a couple. What am I supposed to do the rest of the week?! ☺️
Never thought that damage to laminate could be covered up. I have a whole new appreciation for their potential. Thank you. Btw your videos get better every time. You are a natural at teaching!
You really do find the last-legs pieces that other people would think are a lost cause. These turned out amazingly beautiful! Your video was extremely informative for dealing with laminate. Thanks, Angie!
I have a laminate top table that I kept on my screen porch so there is some water damage. But the size, shape and solid wood legs are good, so you inspire me to keep it and repair it.
You did a beautiful job, as always. These are very sophisticated and contemporary. They have a kind of West Elm vibe, I think. I’m really impressed with the work you did on the damaged tops. It’s a joy to watch you transform furniture into something wonderful and useful.🌸
Those drawer handles are wonderful. And while I love colour (there can never be enough pink, yellow, green and turquoise for me), I can appreciate the understatedness of the greys.
What a transformation. I like the color and glad you kept the hardware. I thoroughly enjoy your content and your calming presentation. I'm learning a lot from you. Thanks! (Ohio - USA)
This is a gorgeous restore. I love the drawers! That they show the wood grain. It is simple and classic with a hint of modern. I REALLY enjoy working on the laminate pieces the most. It’s like a treasure chest
I love the monochromatic look and the warm gray! Washing the drawers to contrast the smooth texture of the painted surfaces and the pop of the black hardware make the look for me.
I've been binge watching again. And again. And again. If I'm right and I'm psychic, you'll reach half a million subscribers by the end of 2023. I love all your projects. You're the pro we all want to watch. You put in the effort and it shows. You don't just slap paint on the furniture. You lovingly restore it to its useful place on the planet. You have had my admiration for 1.5 years now and I'm hooked for life. I had a shop many years ago Pat's Refinishing Of Old Furniture "PROOF" is in the workmanship. I'm 78 now but you tease me into thinking about another round of hard work and JOY. I've got nothing to lose and the products today are a far cry forward of what I had available many years ago...not to mention Amazon for supplies. Thanks Angie, for inspiring so many of us who love wood.
You're very welcome Pat, I'm so glad you're enjoying my content! Supplies, tools and shipping improve every year, you should give it another go! Thanks so much for watching!
I agree totally Richard I'm stuck trying to choose a colour for a sideboard table and 4 chairs I'm so hope to get some suggestions 😀 from fellow furniture restores like ourselves any suggestions
I admire your ability to start with an absolute worthless piece of garbage and turn it into a beautiful piece of furniture. My daughter and I learn a lot from you. Thanks
Totally elegant and classy. Even my husband was impressed. Thanks to you I think I've convinced him to go the 'rescue and upcycle' route for our upcoming furniture needs!
You are an artist so NEVER apologize for your artistic choices 😉! Your work is amazing and the fact that you push yourself out of comfort zone is why your work is always SPECTACULAR!! 👏🏽👏🏽
I appreciate your purpose of finding a second life for any type of furniture. Laminate is fine if its isn't horribly damaged. Fact is that not all of us can afford solid wood furniture, so laminate is a staple. Keeping the plastic/chemicals out of the environment is a noble task. Dont pay too much attention to those negative commenters. Let them find the solid wood pieces and refinish them to the quality that you do. Your work is beautiful and your videos educate us "poor" folk that can't afford new furniture but can afford refinishing pieces. Thank you for your work.
You know, you have put out some real food for thought in my head. Working with these old laminate pieces is a real challenge that you stood up to with class and style. Love it.
Is it me or does this color just bring out the best colors of any wood near it? Love love what you were able to accomplish with these otherwise sturdy pieces.
What a beautiful job you did on these pieces and then look beautiful the handles really help it all the pup great job thank you for sharing all your wisdom and knowledge with us great dad God bless you
I guess ~dark & moody~ is working! For me the beauty of grey is it's ability to be lovely with any color. The paint/wash combo is soft. I really like it Angie!! Bravo..🌷🌷
Great pieces. I see your thumbnails of laminate furniture and I jump for joy. Your laminate furniture philosophy is why I'm here. Love it. Wish I could rent a semi and pick up all the laminate furniture I see at thrift stores etc. Tons here. Thanks!
I’m so glad you kept the hardware! My first thought was upon seeing the pieces was, “Please keep the hardware, please keep the hardware...” Lovely job! Whether or not laminate furniture is valuable, hard to argue with giving something a new lease on life and keeping it from ending up in a landfill 🙂
Every time the tunes at the beginning of the reveal start I know that an other piece would astonish me! Love the colour... Would love to own a house to display and use all your pieces
I just found you! You’re one of the few people who mentions sanding OFF while also making the sanded area level. I see furniture people sanding down but not showing that they need to level off the entire piece! Yay!
I love them! Fusion has such nuanced colors and I especially love a neutral like this that doesn't feel flat because you can pick out so many different tones. I just finished my very first dresser refinish yesterday, it was a laminate piece like these with solid wood drawers, pulls and legs and I'm SO happy with how it turned out. When it's a crummy laminate piece to begin with you really can't go wrong, especially as a beginner! Very low stakes. I was very much inspired by you (although I went dark for mine, black paint and mahogany stain, I know you like the light and airy!), and your videos helped me so much with the process! Thank you Angie 🥰
From all the pieces you've created, I don't know which is my favorite piece. You've done such an awesome job on your makeover's. As always your a master builder at heart!
Stepping out of one's comfort zone is scary but man oh man, when it works out it's the greatest feeling. They are spectacular. Congrats. I love Fusions new colors!
I love that you are saving the old laminate pieces and your work is always amazing! I loved these. Thanks for all you do and sharing your knowledge with us.
I LOVE IT! I couldn't imagine what in the world happened when you showed us the damage from the rain, but you surely took it in stride! I think I would have died! Then again, you took that piece from hideous to show stopping, so the rain just slowed you down a bit. I love the gray wash with the full strength gray, and honestly would have loved the pieces even if they had been all paint, or all wash. You just have an amazing eye and I have love the outcome of every project you've tackled. Not once have I thought, "I wish she'd chosen a different finish". Thanks for sharing! As always, the outcome is so on point!
Wow! Gorgeous…..who’d have thought you could take those really homely pieces and turn them into beautiful, updated works of art? Ha, ha….well you did obviously! Your choices are always classy and the end result something I’d be proud to have in my home. Must make you feel good to give these potential landfill pieces another life. After just finding your channel, I’m hooked. Love watching, great work! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
I think those look super cool! The wash turned out so nice, and that warm color that the finish produced is just perfect for the right room. So satisfying to watch these pieces be given a 2nd life!
Most people would shy away from pieces you take on because they wouldn't know where to start, but it's as if you can see into the future and picture what you're going to create and what it will look like, you and Barry from MCM are my favourite channels. Some just wing it (won't name) but you are so professional.
I really LOVE how they turned out Angie! Everything you do is done to perfection. Inside and out. I could see the lavender shade in the grey in the shots where you could see the sides of the dresser. The sides looked lavender compared to the top! So I get the undertone that you were describing. I love using wax whenever I can. It just really “wows” the overall affect. Two thumbs up Angie!👍🏻👍🏻😃😃😃😃♥️♥️♥️
I've been watching you from the start of your restoration's, EVERY piece of furniture you have saved has been STUNNING this one is no different. you could make a silk purse from a pigs ear.
As ever thank you very much for the download love the work that you do and it's so nice to meet somebody who appreciate having solid wood 😊😊😊😊 drawers I've met some people in my time who don't have any drawers yours an old Queen from London with a sense of humour
Wow! I love the color combo! I was in love with those very unique handles and was skeptical about them being painted black but boy! Was i pleasantly surprised! Your work is just amazing. I will never look at laminate furniture the same ( used to dis it!) now I see the possibilities!
Beautiful. You are the best at fixing damaged furniture. Surprising how nice the drawers were when the top was manufactured wood and plastic and gets the most wear.
More delving in your back catalogue !! Loved these pieces..Monocjtpmatic works...these are typically the pieces you see at the tip as no one has an interest or know that they can be transformed... I really like how the bees wax change the colours...the grey looks great

I couldn't agree more! If a "Karen" has something negative to say, just ignore them. You are the best!

That makes a beautiful set! Slightly industrial, masculine. Really nice!
Beautiful transformation. Don’t apologize for doing something new - trust your instincts. They turned out great!

Thanks for all your effort to video and upload your work. I learn so much from these, as well as get great ideas for color schemes.

@@michelinemclean5553Hey, I'm here to scavenge some ideas. I'm afraid the only thing I can suggest is to keep watching.
Amazing transformation

I think they're gorgeous ❤
Beautiful!! Wish I could give it a million + likes 😀 Awesome! Love it!!!

Your color choice and technique paid off, as usual! The compassion you have for flipping furniture, especially the older "real" pieces, makes my days.
They both look great!! I love that you kept the hardware.
The work you do on things I consider junk is inspiring. Unlike most folks, you have turned trash into treasure. Bravo
Wow! Those two pieces are beautiful, I love the way they turned out!
It’s so beautiful. I just loved the gray wash paint. It made the dresser look very sophisticated. You’re very creative and competent, Angie.
