haven't found my skill yet kiddo😉
So nice of you to make skillshare offering. You’re just a nice person all way round. Looking forward to this video, and have to feed dogs first! I did not know of Skillshare, so now I do and I need many of their instructions to improve my life’s journey. Thank you for helping me enjoy my life. You are great! Keep remembering that! This yellow thing is so boss; can’t wait to see results of your work!
The second choice of legs are perfection!! It was great to see your new assistant helping out!! That veneer is pretty wild but oh so beautiful!!
Thank you ☺️
Yep, much more of an organic fit!
Love this!
Welcome to Rod and him learning how to become fancy AF too ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Oh, those gold legs are beautiful! I can't get over the total transformation form old to new. Again, thanks so much for sharing these projects!
Great job as always, however I didn’t fell in love with the veneer… to “agressive”
Thank you for watching! 😊
This piece of furniture is called a chifforobe. Chifforobe is a word type called a portmanteau, a word formed by blending two other words together, in this case chiffonier (chest of drawers) and a wardrobe (cabinet for hanging clothes). Chifforobes were first advertised in the United States in the 1908 Sears and Robuck catalog.
I love that word! Ive noticed its more common in the southern part of the United States, but i use it every chance❤ i get, because i think its a cool word
@@lauralake7430 Yes! Definitely more common in the South. I grew up in South Carolina. My grandmothers both had chifforobes. 😁
I have one made of solid maple. The lady sold it to me was the daughter of the furniture maker in Eastern Canada. On one side there is a pivoting brass gizmo to hold an array of ties and a mirror is inside that door. She called it a “gentleman’s wardrobe”.
Can't say I have ever heard them called that. Maybe it's an American name.
Here is seems mainly to be called a gentleman's wardrobe, but I have heard tallboy and other names used over the years as well.
@@lauralake7430 ha ha me too!!!
Oh, those brass legs are perfect! They really compliment the piece. Nice job on the whole thing.
Thank you 🤩
That veneer is magical and once you applied the last coat it transformed the piece. My favourite bit was "Mando in the cupboard"! He is such a character....
Glad you like it! and Yes he is! 😄😺🐾
I love that you left in the mind-changes. It's a really important part of the creative process, and it's awesome to see.
Surprise surprise 😂😂😂 thank you mate, I do that all the time 😂
Bengal cats are well known for being a very vocal breed. They have a tendency for being independent cats but Mando seems to like the neighbourhood cats so it might be beneficial to get him a friend. Or you could just end up with two wild cats and it could be even more chaotic, lol.
I rescued a kitten that someone abandoned in a park restroom. My wife named her Silence. Believe it or not, she is living up to her name. But her voice is sweet and oh so darling.
@@TheParkAttendant
Bless you for rescuing your sweet kitty!🥰
Sounds like that's what it is. Well, love Mando regardless
@@Flippingdrawers Has Mando been neutered? That can make a difference on how much advertising a cat needs to do.
@@laineymcd4074 Yes this! Not being neutered will make him even more vocal than he would be otherwise.
Welcome on board Rod! The tallboy turn out beautiful.
Thank you kindly! Rad says hello!
In the US, we call that a chifferobe. What defines the piece is the vertical spaces with drawers on one side and hanging space n the other. A tallboy, on the other hand, is simply a very tall dresser with drawers and no hanging space, just maybe a cubbyhole for hats.
Good to know ;-)
I live in the US and have a piece of furniture similar and have always called it a wardrobe. Learn something new everyday. 🙂
I’ve often wondered if “chiffons” is more of a Southern US term, as living in the NE I’ve only seen it referred to as a wardrobe.
@@amysbees6686 Where I'm from -- which is the Midwest -- a wardrobe is a free-standing unit that has hanging space all across the width. It there are drawers, they are at the bottom.
The UK would call this a tallboy. For gentleman.
Bengals are fabulously talkative!! Super amazing personalities!! You get used to talking to them!!
That's true. We are parents of a 14 yo senior Bengal and he is still very active. When he gets bored he starts crying with an hilarious low voice 'moooooouuuuuu'. 😹He needs a lot of attention, I always have to play hide and seek with him. We love him so much! 💞 Btw our Maui looks just the same like Mango.
beautiful transformation! i'd be proud to have this in my living room
Welcome to Bengal parenthood! They are vocal, active, play rough and are very needy. They are amazing personalities. We lost our boy the Monday before Eater this year, we just rescued a little girl two weeks ago. We were looking for another Bengal, once you've had one there is no going back.
As for the wardrobe - it came up beautifully, loved the second set of legs
Thank you kindly! and I Hope that new kitty will bring you a lot of joy! 😻
I love the coat of the Bengal. I have a very common tabby, but he's a big cat, as in tall, bigger feet, etc. The personality sounds like my tabby!
My cat Jax talks all the time, needy, always going, very lovable. He's a handful! I do adore him. Maybe some hidden Bengal in him???
@@debk9889 Bengals do have tabby in them, they are a cross breed between Asian Leopard Cats and domestic cats, in America they used Ocelots.
@debraarbuthnott3380 Wow, didn't realize. Yeah, Jax is a domestic short-hair tabby, brown coloring. Thanks for the info!
Stunning transformation! Love that veneer. So exotic and the choice of mixing the oil with the pigment was pure genius. It made the grain in the veneer pop perfectly. Whoever ends up with that piece is very fortunate, indeed
😊😊
whaaaaat!!?? that veneer grain is simply GORGEOUS!!! And I am happy you decided to change the legs, I like the final ones even better!
thanks , glad you like it 😍
Very posh and fancy AF! You never fail to educate and entertain. Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge!
Glad you enjoyed it! Thank you for watching! 😊
Oh, that veneer is absolutely stunning, especially with that finish applied! Whatever you may call this piece of furniture, you've turned it into an absolute masterpiece. Also, how exciting is it to see the workshop staff grow!! Looking forward to more projects you two will tackle together! ♥
Thank you so much! 💛
I was soooo prepared to dislike that veneer's final appearance.
Then you switched the legs and hardware.
What a wonderful new look, it all pulls together so beautifully!
*MAGIC*
The grain on the veneer was wild it looked so good with the finish you choose.The legs and brass handles made it look very rich. I love it when you say “Bob’s your uncle”. Welcome new assistant your learning from the best!
Thanks!! 🙂 New assistant says hello! 👋
The brass hardware and new legs are a perfect finishing to this exotic piece !
Thank you for bringing us along on this journey and so glad you have such skilled helpers - two- and four-legged !
Thanks ;-) We appreciate it 🐾
So unique. I love the veneer that you chose - the grain is just so wild. And the brass legs are perfect. Some of your comments just cracked me up - especially about the brass screws. You know, that may just become a nickname - Brass Screws, fancy AF 🤣😂
Super posh!!!
😂 Thank you beautiful person 😉 Kind as always
That veneer is absolutely gorgeous! And I love what you ended up going with for the legs. I've gotta say, I think "fancy AF" might just be an understatement in this case.
Glad you think so!! 😊
"cause I'm fancy AF!" LOL
Yes I am 💁🏻♂️😂
I really like how thorough you are re-doing furniture, even when just cleaning. Makes other channels seem like they skipped doing some things.
Thanks so much! 😊
Wow!! Talk about Cinderella! This piece is smashing. Both the veneer and the bass legs are perfect.
Thanks! 😊
Its so uniquely you Jay. Love the heavy grain of the veneer. The wax oil color is perfect, i was afraid it was going to be too dark. But its not.
The brass pulls and lega were absolutely the right choice. Love this piece!
Thank you kindly! 😊
The small brass legs are so much better, but I'm undecided about the veneer!!😮😊
Those brass knobs and legs make this piece! Beautiful!
⭐️Beautiful Woods with shine gold. Looking match! Perfect. Great Job! YAY👌🏼👍🏼🥰
Thank you! 🤗
@@Flippingdrawers Welcome!🤗
Its own Mother would not recognize it now. Beautiful job :)
All I can say is "WOW"! That is an absolutely beautiful result.
Cheers!! 😊
Why does Bob always have to be my uncle? Why can't he be a distant cousin or something?
Came out fantastic! Those new legs set it all off. 👏👏👏👏👏
A question for your grandparents 😂.
@@lorrilj7289 bwahahahaha
The first time I heard this expression, it was on a cooking show with Jamie Oliver. He says it all the time, and I get a kick out of hearing it in your videos. It’s so much more British than other options like “ta-dah” or “voila” to say “there you go” when you’ve finished a step in the process.
@@JAResto 😁
Bob's your mother's brother!
Another beautiful job. Love the veneer and the brass legs are perfect. Kitty inspected and approved!😽
Thank you! 😊😺😺
I LOVED your choice of the legs! The veneer gave the piece a real classy look!

💛💛💛
Great decision to change the legs! The second set fits much better and looks so elegant!
Glad you like it!!
My Bengal wasn’t very vocal, but his male sibling never shut up 😫
I like the veneer very much & the legs. I would like it better if the wood pieces were stained a little darker to match the dark grain of the veneer. Another job well done 👍🏼
Thank you 🐾
Love the entire look 🤩. That veneer is the bomb. The. Legs are perfect.
Glad you like it! 🙂
The veneer is fabulous and the second set of legs make this a showpiece.
Mando needs a full time friend. I had cats for 45 years. The meows in this case are ‘I want attention and company’.
Thank you for your lovely comment! 🐾
This piece is absolutely beautiful! That veneer and those legs absolutely MADE this piece!
Cheers!!
It's a chifforobe
I was going to suggest "compactom," but I think they have shelves, not drawers.
I LOVE the legs you chose! The piece looks amazing.
Thank you so much!
Those legs look much better. 23:22
Very nice work!! 👌
Thank you! 🙂
The veneer is stunning. The result is really beautiful 😻
Thank you! 😊🐾
Jay another great job on this project and the outcome was on the spot, wow what an incredible difference.
Cheers!! 🙂
Beautiful!
You do come across the most unique furniture finds. I especially like the way you placed the grain horizontally & vertically on the front. Second set of legs are perfection & the simple knobs on the drawers are so fitting. Another fabulous job. Good that you have help. Now Mando & Hugo will have another human to supervise!
I love the new veneer. Its different. Its nice to see something different. I love the brass legs much better. It brings the brass through out the piece.
Glad you like it! 🙂
Absolutely fantastic end result and the legs was perfect. Everything you restore turns out outstanding in the end. You are a true craftsman
It's really kind of you. thank you!! 🙂
I’m glad to see the good looking apprentice 😊
Thanks mate 😉
Как всегда великолепный результат! БРАВО Мастеру!❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Lovely veneer and I like the legs on the final reveal much better.
The legs you finally chose look absolutely terrific and suit the piece perfectly!
Thank you!
Looks like it was a child's wardrobe. Nice work.
The legs you finally went with are perfect. I loved the whole look. Welcome Rad
Thank you very much! Rad says Thank you!
Beautiful. That veneer rocks!!!!
Wow!!! Beautiful job...great final choices and the piece is so eclectic!!! Love it.
Thank you! 😊
Spectacular transformation. I would have that in my house all day.
Glad you like it!
Love the veneer, especially the way you applied it in 2 different directions. Well done!
Thank you!!
Love the veneer. And the legs takes it up a notch further and seems more sturdy
Really exquisite looking wardrobe. Once yellow paint stripped, you really had a blank slate & went above & beyond to give this a new life. Ex ellent job! BTW, I love the legs you decided to us!
4:20 the tip about using floss to glue up a narrow crack is brilliant! Thanks so much!
You very welcome!
Anyone remember The Furniture Guys that used to be on PBS? I loved them. Anyway, they'd use a hypodermic needle to add glue to tight cracks. In this instance, I think our hero made the better choice.
What a surprise. Such a dramatic piece. You unveiled a treasure 👍
Cheers! 🙂👍
Wow! You took it from playroom to sophisticated chic with your great choice of veneer and 👌 hardware. Great job.
Thank you! 😊
Who could’ve imagined that veneer would work? It almost matches Mondo’s fanciness… or his finess ~ I say meow away til your dad gets you a leash and starts walking you to the park. Tell him it’s past time you see the sights. If your dad can pick out this veneer, he can clearly see there is so much out there to show you. This piece confirms your eagerness to try really new things, and it’s amazing. I want it! Ha! “If wishes were horses…beggars would ride.” Congratulations on yet another success!
Thank you 🤩 That is very kind of you. Have a lovely week 🙂
Wow! What a great transformation. Good vision and execution..
Cheers!! 🙂
That veneer is gorgeous and an excellent choice 😍
You were right to change your mind on the legs, while they were very pretty legs they didn't quite look right (and obviously as you said were not steady) the second choice of brass legs was absolutely perfect and just fitted the whole look of the tallboy so much more basically taking it from lovely to gorgeous 🥰
Hello Rad and welcome look forward to getting to know you 😁😁
The "new" tallboy looks amazing. You are a real artist🎉❤
Thank you!! 💛
Oh wow that is amazing. The brass legs were a great choice.
Once again...very beautiful result for a very interesting exotic piece.
Thank you!! 🙂
Absolutely stunning, the veneer is beautiful and the new legs are perfect ❤
Cheers! 💛
That piece is really different! I love the unusual veneer and the brass hardware and particularly the legs compliment the whole effect. Great work!
Glad you like it!!
I suspect this piece was originally a child's wardrobe. A beautiful restoration.
Rad, welcome to the community.
Each Project Consists Of
- 2,000+ years of sanding
- Some type of bling
- Throws in the unexpected
- Attention to detail
- Not afraid of changing directions
- Mando's stamp of approval
Why you adk. Because he's "Fancy AF." 😅😅
Thank you! I am already learning a lot every day + doing some sanding of course 😄 - Rad
the veneer is stunning. What a transformation! From old and ordinary to modern and beautiful. Well done!
Thank you very much!
What a unique and beautiful piece!!! That veneer's absolutely stunning❣️👍😽
Thank you , 🤩
Yes. The hardware and legs are classy and gorgeous. Same with the veneer. The stripe is so bold, and the brass is so understated yet luxe.
Glad you like it! 🙂
That turned out really beautiful! The hardware you went with in the end is near perfection.
I absolutely love the veneer. Nice to see Rad the new Assistant.
Glad you like it! Rad says hello!
@Flippingdrawers Hi to everyone especially Mando.
You are very talented and the attention to detail makes each piece even better. Love your work!
Absolutely beautiful! Love the veneer! The legs and hardware are perfect! Love it!
Gorgeous and the veneer is beautiful and unique!
Thank you! 😊
Thank you for respecting the piece enough to give it proper legs.
No worries! 😉👍
Wow. That is the most fantastic veneer - really gives the piece character. What a lovely job.
Thank you kindly!
Surprise, surpriiiise! I actually laughed out loud. 😂
😄😄
That is really stunning! Welcome Rad!
Thank you kindly!
Oh, Jay, that is stunning! I absolutely love the veneer and the color you applied to it, and especially the way you changed the grain direction on the drawers. The drawer pulls and legs work really well together on this piece (love those legs you chose!). I would be so happy to have this in my house! Awesome work!
Thank you so much!
Wow! What a change.
It definitely shows its cool character with the new veneer. You brought this piece up to modern times.
Wise choice in changing the legs. They go well with the knobs/handles all brass. I’m an old fashion gal n I love my oldies but I must admit this piece is really cool looking n I like it. You did a beautiful job on it.
♥️♥️😊👍👍👍👍🌟🐈⬛
Thank you for your kind comment! 🥰
Every project you take on turns out brilliant. You truly are a miracle worker when it comes to this work. Your vision blows me away.
Glad you think so! ☺️
It’s got a masculine look and sophisticated in its simplicity 👏
Thank you! 🙂
Wow, that is some beautiful veneer! Love the 2nd set of legs too. They really bring it all together. Another great job. Welcome to the new kid on the block.
Thanks ;-) Rad says hi 👋🏼
Love the choice of the veneer! The legs were perfect! Another great job 👏🏼
Just beautiful! You always amaze me with your creativity and contrasting of stains and veneers. Love you work.
Thank you very much!
Ficou maravilhoso! Parabéns pelo seu trabalho!!👏👏👏
I love that veneer! The only thing I think I would have preferred is to have the grain of the drawers going the same direction as the rest of the piece.
Wow, it looks so cool and stylish and very unique now, excellent work!
Thank you kindly! ☺️
Love the final result!! Gold legs are perfect!
Thanks!
Well done project. Glad to meet Rad! You do a great job with finishing your projects.
Much appreciated!
