- Thank you for watching! I have had some much fun on this Ugly Duckling Collaboration with such amazing and talented artists and craftsmen! The rules of the ugly duckling challenge are simple, find the ugliest piece of furniture you possibly can and give it new life. The winner of "biggest transformation" will be featured on my channel next week.
This piece is SO MUCH worse than it looks. It was literally falling apart in every way possible. Can we save it????

I guess you didn't lock the list of contributors to the challenge. Today checking to see the ones I didn't get to yesterday, I find a whole bunch of video stuff added to the list by some spammer. Happened with another challenge I followed once before.
A lot of hard work went into this piece and the outcome is beautiful. The wear and tear the years have wrought gives this piece a sense of grace you don't find in modern pieces. Great job, Cory!
Thank you! I agree!
I think Amy at Flip It Furniture should win! Her ugly duckling project transformation was AMAZING! 👍🏻👏🏻😊. Your piece was fantastic! Its wonderful to save a piece and give it new life. Well done! 😀👍🏻👏🏻
You and your husband have given me such huge inspiration for so many old projects. Also, Semper Fi to your husband and Thank you both for your service to our beautiful country. I'm a USAF veteran mom and I support our troops in every way I can.
What a lovely tribute for the buffet and what a heartwarming gift for the dear mother of your friend.
Your husband is a dear too.
Somethings in life are worth waiting for
and this episode was definitely worth the wait. 😀
Cheers!
Your husband is fabulous. I love that you work as a team. I absolutely agree with your philosophy about the dents and dings in this piece. They tell a story of everything this piece has been through. I think the final outcome was perfect. Great choice to do it like this, rather than trying to bring it back to original condition. This is SOOO much better. Great job!!
Thank you so much!
I am glad you tested that first piece for lead. In restoring an historic Italianate Villa with some large dogs, I unfortunately did not understand what that meant when the dust from sanding and removing paint caused their illness. All dogs had the lead chelated from their systems but later other problems arose. You are so ready to protect yourself and new life that I am glad to see you again on this week's challenge. This was a real labor of love for an outstanding Mom. Thank you for your music too. The piece is worthy of all that labor.
Just wanted to say good job but more over thanks for hosting the Ugly Duckling challenge. It gave me a great group of flippers that never showed up in my feed. Nice group to watch.
New isn't always best. And neither is what looks new 😊. Great job giving dignity to something with history. Thank you for the lesson.
Wow! That's a lot of work! But it was worth it. You gave this old lady new life! Beautiful!
I love your passion for old furniture BUT as creative people I would like to say it’s ok to love what you love 💗
I can’t believe this is the same piece. You and your husband absolutely knocked this one out of the park. Great work.
I love your outlook on life, such words of wisdom, I wish there were more people like you in our world...it'd be a better place! Also...I didn't doubt for a second that you couldn't give that buffet new life, you're so talented.
I love your approach of respecting the life of the piece, not just painting over it all.
Amazing save Cory!! I love the route you chose for this gorgeous buffet not covering up its imperfections but highlighting them in a beautiful way! Very wabi sabi!
And a round of applause 👏 to your hubs for his hard work!
Thank you so much my friend! Thank you for playing along too! I will tell my husband that you are singing his praises
Absolutely gorgeous!
Thank you Deborah
Love this buffet, beautiful bleached look and love that finish and the pulls. gorgeous work
Truly a damselin distress! What a labor of love. Intriguing finish.
What a gorgeous piece or furniture brought back from the dead. Good work!!
So glad you let the furniture tell its story. Turned out beautifully
Thank you Veronica
Absolutely beautiful.......luv that you decided to leave it natural...well done Cory
This is so beautiful that watching the makeover progress is like a meditation. Thank you so much for sharing the actual condition as a trait to be valued rather than masked.
Thank you Marilla
You have such a good eye for what a piece will be and then you make it so. I enjoy watching anything you put up. Congrats on your new baby!
Came out amazing and beautiful. ..and congratulations on your pregnancy Cory ...And it's Really awesome of ur husband to be helping You During ur pregnancy....stay blessed ❣️❣️
Such a Labor of Love the both of you contributed for this hutch. Amazing transformation . Your friend's mom was smiling I'm sure Cory. 💜🌞
Yes you did absolutely pull it off!!! Such a beautiful piece of furniture now.
WONDERFUL RESTORATION ONTHIS OLD PIECE!🤍♡🤍
This is my first time watching. I love that you saved it and honored it's past. It is definitely from the depression. There were pieces made with really fancy veneers and pieces that were painted wood grain, or had an applique put on. The painted ones were called borax.
that is so cool to know, thank you.
Cory. This is one of the first challenge videos that I have had a chance to watch. I was blown away by the number of things you both did that I have never considered. If you have seen any of my videos, there has always been a buffet almost identical to this in the background. I cannot wait to finish it now. Will be coming back to this video for ideas. Also, love the music. Found myself singing along to the first one. Brought back so many memories! Thank you for good, quality content and for hosting. Barry, Mad City Modern (Madison, Wisconsin, USA)
Woah! Absolutely stunning.
Wow!!!!!! That’s beautiful!!!
Amazing work!!! Who would have ever thought that all that beauty was underneath the initial mess??? I’m glad you left all of her marks and scratches… it definitely tells her story 🥰 y’all did an excellent job snd she will be loved again for many years!!!❤️
Beautiful. Thank ur husband for helping u. He is a one in a million
You guys did a geat job bringing that back to life. One problem is I hate it!! I'm a dark wood stain person. But I can appreciate the amount of time and effort it took to turn it into a lovely piece of furniture. Really beautiful.
Absolutely stunning makeover! 😍🤩
This is one of the most stunning pieces I’ve ever seen!!! Your friend’s mother is SO LUCKY!
It's so great you saved this from the land fill. Love it
Never would have believed that transformation!
Well done!
Wow, amazing how you two brought it up back to life😲😲😲 So beautiful 🤩 🤩 🤩
Beautiful…, very high end looking.. 👍👍👍
You both did a beautiful job on this piece. Its life has been extended for many more years. Well Done!
This was a beautiful transformation. I love the natural look.
Thank you Mary
So lovely! Also enjoyed watching you working together, the relaxing music and of course the result, totally beautiful. Well done rescuing an Ugly Duckling, I agree about showing its life, it is 90 years old, we need to respect that "life". Great job Cory x
Absolutely beautiful.
Looks like Jacobean furniture style. Gorgeous. ❤️
I like the rustic look a lot.
Good luck choosing a winner! I just finished all 26....almost forgot to eat. They are all fabulous.
I know it is gonna be gorgeous. I can see it in my mind. I love to see what I can do with throw away stuff.
I love it, it’s just as great new item. Great job at given new life to an old poor piece of furniture.
I think this is one of my all time favourites! Simply shabby chic yumminess ❤️❤️
Beautiful . If only furniture pieces could tell us their story .
This is GORGEOUS! Perfect makeover 👍👍
I agree about letting a piece tell its story... but some are just drama queens in need of filler 😄
Turned out beautiful!
Oh my goodness.... that is stunning! Wonderful job! 👍👍😊
Wow, having those original wheels is amazing on a piece like this. Esp since it was outside. Go team, glad Mr DIY was able to tag in with the assist on this piece. You both brought this back from impending death (aka dumpster.) Love the final result!
That buffet turned out so beautifully! I love every dent and scratch!
Thank you!
It turned out beautiful!
My daddy thought me that toothpick tick years ago. That made me smile! You did a great job!
Congratulations on the baby!!! I
Love the music! Great job!
I absolutely positootly love it!!
I'm so glad your husband is helping you so you can continue transforming beautiful pieces and diys. He and you did a beautiful job.love this old piece.
Thank you so much Mary. I am lucky to have him!
Hope you get to feeling better soon!! Morning sickness is rough. Miss your smiling face!! 🙏🙏
Amazing video! Thank you for hosting!!!
Just beautiful!!
It's great that you allowed the wood to show all the age and it's history. Much better than those painted furniture trying to look brand new or fake old... Real old wood has presence and character.
That is beautiful!!!!
thank you Jade
I absolutely love the passion you have for the pieces you work on. I love seeing the past and knowing that it now has such a bright future and will survive probably another 100 or more years.
It's absolutely stunning!!
This was a beautiful video. Thank you for sharing this with us.
I’m still working on my ugly duckling! I’m over 60 so I’m a lot slower than I used to be but I’m chugging along and loving what I’m doing. Thanks for the challenge!
Wow! Gorgeous!
Great job!! 🔥🔥🔥 this buffet sideboard has a brand new life again
That is just beautiful!
The toothpick trick works better if you dip it in wood clue, stuff the hole as full with toothpicks and allow it to dry, then proceed with the reattaching. This is a beautiful piece!
Beautiful update of a piece that would have been landfill to most people. Great job!
OMGoodness!!!! This end result is something that Pottery Barn would sell for THOUSANDS! It is gorgeous. I’m a little jealous of your friend’s mom right about now!
I have found that it is so easy to do pottery barn looks for less because anything costs less than their prices haha. They have beautiful stuff but wow! Thank you Laurie!
This turned out to be gorgeous!!!!
Wow what a transformation! You did an amazing job...just amazing. Congratulations! 5STARS!! 🕊
Thank you!
Beautifully rescued!
Really rustic but I like it! I am so glad that you saved the backboard The hardware is pretty!
Very nice, & kudos for avoiding toxic exposure!
Beautiful!
Wow, the piece turned out so pretty!! Both of you done a very well job!!
The hub, “Don’t be a Richard” shirt cracked me up. Lol
I haven’t heard that saying in years. 🤣
I have been watching your ugly duckling challenge & I can't imagine how you are going to choose the winner! There are so many amazing recovery pieces in it!
I have old work tables that I used to set my pieces of furniture on. I was lucky enough to go to a flea market and find lights that I can use when I set my furniture upside down. If you're not outside you can't really see everything but these lights that the contractors use are amazing, I just love them. I hope that you get some if you don't have any.
Gorgeous job!! 🎉
Gorgeous work.
Beautiful great job. 💕
Look wonderful!
Beautiful!😍
Wow that turned out wonderful! It’s really very beautiful. God bless you 🙏🏻❤️
Love it, and the philosophical, poetic insight into the tree that once was. Bravo, love the natural look.
"The tree that once was" love that
Just Beautiful
