Painted and Stained Vintage Provincial Dresser Makeover

- Опубликовано: 6 окт 2024
- I recently worked on this dresser makeover while live streaming here on RUclips. I wanted to share the process of painting this provincial dresser using water based latex paint, stripping and staining the top, using wood stain as an antique glaze, and highlighting it all with some gold wax. I hope you enjoy this video! Feel free to join my painting community on Discord: / discord

Funny, I loved the original color and was disappointed he was going to paint it. Then when he painted it I loved the light blue and the light colored top and was disappointed when he was going to stain it darker. Then he stains it darker and, you guessed it, I love it! Goes to show that I should withhold judgment until the entire process is complete. Awesome job.
I have this same dresser. It was my moms, mine and now my daughters. I’ve been want to redo it but it always scares me-worried that I will ruin it. This video has given me courage to try. Thank you!
Christina Comeau A technique like this - you can't go wrong. You can do it. Blessings.
I found this same dresser for $40 at a second hand store. It was in good condition, so I cleaned it, painted it and turned it into a vanity.
Lucky you! I wish I had that dresser. I especially love the drawers. Hope you will show us when you are done
Same here.
Don’t worry it’s not a real antique, you could only improve it.
You do the best job I can see on internet. The quality of your piece is incredible and you have an eye for tones. Some people just slap on paint for quick change, you create a piece of art.
I always appreciate the transformation from the uninspired original finishes to your reimagined creations, often with abandoned materials no less. You have quite the eye for color harmonies. And you disprove the old adage that watching paint dry is boring.
I really don’t know who gave this video a thumbs down, why? Oh well you did an amazing job, I’m a Designer and I’m always so impressed with your work. You do such good work. You keep putting out great videos and we will continue to watch.
A little knowledge from a "RUclipsr": RUclips loves "engagement". Like, comment, share, dislike; RUclips measures them all the same. So it doesn't bother me. 😀 Appreciate you watching my video (and enjoying them). Take care!
I learned a lot. After you finished I felt like “we” did an outstanding job!
@@ThatShabbyGuy And now I need a paint sprayer. thank you
Whoever gave this a thumbs down, their finger must be broken. This was absolutely beautiful!
Keep up the beautiful exceptional work!
Great job
With all the poorly constructed furniture being mass produced these days it’s a pleasure to see quality pieces be saved. Beautiful.
That's all people can afford sometimes. Poor people can have nice looking things too.
Loved to have seen it restored back to more original look. I have some original pieces and want to learn to restore them. Thanks for name of gold leaf to you!
Absolutely gorgeous!, what beautiful work you do! Thank you for sharing your talent with us!
Love it. And your dog, oh my goodness, what a doll.
😊 thank you
its toxic for the dog those products, you wear a mask but not him and you know dogs smell 100 X stronger than human, so, please let him out of those products
Once again, my dog was not around any toxic fumes. Keep in mind this project was shot over the course of a few days. When my dog is in the shot, it is safe for him to be there.
Beautiful Job. Sure I’d like more live streams. Your dog waving to you was so cute.
Beautiful transformation! I had the whole bedroom set as a child and sold it many years ago. Your attention to detail is fantastic.
I too have a complete set of this furniture white with gold and a canopy bed to go with it. and I sold it! Wish I had it back now, I think about it quite often often.
I still have my Dresser set! The wide one like in the thumbnail, for my son for now, and the tall one for my baby girl's clothes, and the big one is currently in the garage with art work inside. They're in pretty good shape and clean but need to be refurbished to extend their lifetime! I want to learn to do it myself ; )
I had the whole set with canopy bed as a little girl growing up. I guess my mom eventually got rid of it
@@nancynewton319 oh I have never seen the canopy bed that matches this set! I will look it up!!
@@kathyterwillegar1972 I had the same set as a kid...my eighth birthday present..I had the canopy bed too..my granddaughters inherited the dresser.. canopy and chest was lost.
I love the puppy!! 💕 when he waves my heart melts!!
Would love live streams and more videos! This dresser is amazing
Working on it!
Amazing. I love love that you respected the wood and brought it up to date.
GOOD ONE! Thanks for the great live stream. Always helps to see the energy that a big job takes. You make it look easy! I'll be back for more...
👍 Nice Job!!
I would love to see some metallic stenciling n future pieces..... just a wish. Thanks for Sharing 🙂
Love the dresser... love the color....but love your adorable puppy more!! What a little cutie pie!
I have the exact same 4 piece bedroom set that was my mothers. It's 56 years old. It been sitting in my cellar for quite some time now. The original color was an off white leaning more towards the white side with the gold trim. Over the years it did turn yellowish just like the one you just did. I keep it because it's a good piece of furniture and I don't have the heart to throw it away because it has no damage except for the paint. The one you painted came out beautiful! However, I prefer the original color. I wish I knew somebody like you who could restore it back to it's original beauty. Love your channel!
I’m a big fan of the way you refinish the furniture you take on, and have tried to emulate your style and techniques more than once. I’ve learned a lot watching you, and I look forward to each new project.
I have the 4 drawer chest that matches that piece. I would love to have my chest that exact same way. Well maybe one day. Your piece is absolutely gorgeous.
I have the large dresser with the mirror. Got it at antique dealer real cheap. In great shape. Glad I saw this video. Gives me inspiration
The French Provençal furniture is absolutely gorgeous when refinished in grays and silver- if you ever do another... but this one turned out so beautiful, well done!!!
I am sooo impressed! Your work is superlative and your patience with detail is amazing. If I had 1/16th of your patience, I'd be thrilled. The finished product is just beautiful! Good for you. I really enjoyed viewing this. Keep up the great work. Thank you...Stay safe.👍😃 Your puppy is so adorable!!!
Please do a pink vanity some day 🙏😂 love this video. I just talked to you on Facebook but thought I'd comment here too you deserve so much recognition! Lol
The gold touches simply makes this piece.
Every time I drop in to see what you have been up to I am just wowed again, beautiful work!
You are the best out there. I appreciate how detailed you are in your painting technique. You use several steps to obtain the end result which is beautiful and elegant! I love you work; a quality finish done by a professional!
Wow! It always amazes me when I see the transformation of a meh piece into a gorgeous finished product! Great job as always!!!
I just found you today! Another great project. I LOVE the blue but I never diss furniture because of the color. That's a matter of preference and taste.
I have a dresser very much like this. I only cleaned it and added rosy gift wrap to the drawer fronts. It is awesome. I get a lot of compliments on it
That is awesome!
I LOVE the stained and painted together on one piece! Gorgeous! You’ve inspired me to play with more paint and paint techniques on the pieces I build. I used to just stain almost everything.
Great job oh my goodness it turned out absolutely stunning!! Did not even know you could glaze over paint with wood stain and the gold wax, GORGEOUS!!! Thanks for sharing this process with us!
You made this dresser beautiful again. I also like the format of your videos. You are awesome and I love watching you work.
Beautiful! The hardware makes the dresser-top POP!
I have the same set from when my 25yo was little. I repainted it & colorblocked the drawers.it was magical
Yay!! Your video found me! I just purchased an entire French provincial bedroom set for a steal, and was not sure how I was going to repaint it. Now I know!! Thank you!! 🥰
Another beautiful piece! Great job. All I can think of is Nantucket when I look at it. Stunning thank you for sharing your technique.❤
I love watching an expert do his job.
I can’t say enough about the quality of your work. I have an entire kingsize bedroom set that people have turned down doing the refinishing and repainting. I'm determined I'll do it myself
I've just started my first project after watching your videos for the past month, really liked the extra touch of adding the gilding wax to finish off with.
I really like this color on a French Provincial piece. Very creative. Great color for the top. Well done.
I had this dresser with complete bedroom set from 1973. It was my absolute favorite.
I had it, too, with the 4-poster bed. Loved it!!! I bought a vintage dresser for my bathroom. Not painting it. I love it exactly the way it is.
@@bunnyrose9525 I also had the bed. Such a beautiful bedroom set.
Love how you are teaching us at the same time.. Your work is beautiful!!
Thanks so much 😊
This is gorgeous! I could/would never do this on my own. I would pay for it, though! Adorable puppy!
Great job. Yes want more live. Want more of your challenges. Your perfection is amazing. Want to see the difficulties you overcome. The fixes.
Beautiful work.
I love your work as a furniture artist. It is so relaxing to watch you strip, stain and paint your pieces. You have inspired me to paint with a sprayer and I love it! You have also inspired me to stain the tops of my pieces which is so classy, but I have yet to do. I am a little intimidated by staining, but determined to try. Thank you again for sharing your skill and knowledge. Please keep creating! :)
Absolutely love your precious puppy!! And all your furniture pieces! I love this piece!
This looks beautiful! You get lucky on your colors. I only see browns in crappy paint in the mistake paints. I didn't see the live stream but I like the length of your videos. Thank you!
Thank you! Cheers!
I love your channel and so glad that I found it you did an awesome job this is absolutely stunning I love the touch of gold around the finished product is beautiful thank you so much for sharing have a great day God bless you
Gorgeous! I have this same dresser(set), I want to redu it Just like THIS now!! I have had it for all of my life..and it needs life extension... Also, I watched part of the early livestream! Thanks for teaching us so much!
Wonderful! Thanks!
Perfect timing for me i have the whole bedroom set and I'm getting everything ready to paint. I was wondering what to do with the tops. Thank you so very much💜💜
This turned out beautiful. Fun to watch too.
Absolutely gorgeous! Love how you glazed with the stain. I’ve never done that before, but I can’t wait to try it!!! Also, THERE IS NO SUCH THING AS TOO MUCH GOLD!!! Great job!!! ✌🏻❤️
You are an artist and a genius. You have taken a cheap looking French Provincial dresser that the Goodwill rejected and before our eyes transformed it into a gorgeous piece that looks like it came from a suite in a 5-star Paris hotel. You are a Master at your craft, that is for certain. I can't imagine who the 19 morons are who gave this a thumbs down. Obvisouly someone who doesn't know beauty and art when they see it. I happilly subscribed to you. I can't wait to see more!!!! BRAVO TO YOU.
I have on that was my grandmother’s and I’ve been wanting to refinish it just like this since the old finished is damaged. Thank you!
The glazing is so amazing in blending a top with painted sides - so they make a single statement in the same general tone! (I really was never aware of that idea before.)
The contrast of the natural wood takes this piece over the top looks so beautiful ( I love natural wood and I cringe when I see people paint over it ) I would love to have that in my bedroom
I have that dresser! What a beautiful job you did on it! Tfs
I really appreciate that you treat the edge of the top the same as the flat surface of the top. I see some re-finishers painting the edge the same color as the body of the piece. It is so much prettier with the entire top stained the same. Great job!
Beautiful, the dresser looks great. I enjoy watching the live streams so yes it would be great if you did more.
Thanks!
I have a dresser almost exactly like this that I painted black about 7 yrs ago. I did not do a very good job and a going to try again with it soon and change the color. Yours is beautiful.
Amazing work, making me want to go out and flip furniture 😂❤️
I really like your thorough attention to details. Good work.
GORGEOUS U DID A GOOD JOB LOVE THE COLOR
Thank you very much!
Beautiful. I so appreciate sharing your techniques.
What a beautiful transformation! I love the color.
Glad you like it!
That came out FABULOUS. I have this complete set with triple dresser mirror, high chest, nightstand and Queen head board. It’s a Broyhill my parents bought it for me when I was 15 I’m almost 60 now and it’s still my bedroom set. I can’t bare to part with it not just for sentimental value but it’s so well made huge dovetail drawers solid maple .
You are very talented. Thank you for saving this beauty. 👏👏👏👏👏
This dresser turned out AMAZING! I loved the dark top!!
I love that when you can, you keep the top wood / stained. Beautiful
Hey there, wow this became fabulous, gorgeous, I love the colour choice and the staining and the gilding goes so well with colour. And all videos from you I like, Life or videos like this, so keep them coming :)
You did an absolutely beautiful job on this project!!!
Sorry I missed your live😔 You did a amazing job 👍🏾 I love it😍🙌🏽
Thank you so much 🤗
I too, have the same set passed down from daughter to granddaughter. I wanted it stained for a more grown up look, But I was afraid to do it. Thanks to you Shabby Guy, I will follow your technique and just do it! Yours came out beautiful ! Thanks for the tutorial ! Love to see more; I'll keep watching.
This is rad. I personally rarely to never have time to watch live streams so I appreciate a sort of recap video like this. You're making me want to pick up the brush again, man. I took a break after losing my mom last year and have been thinking about starting up again but need that extra...push. Keep posting inspirational ish like this and there will be no stopping me 😉🤘
So often you find a mixed wood content under the paint, you were lucky! What great hardware!!
This dresser is officially GORGEOUS!
I just got 6 pieces of the French provincial, and I’m really excited to get started! I love the dark tops!
This is gorgeous! We're working on a bedroom set with a dresser exactly like this - got ideas off of one of your old videos to stain the top and paint the body light gray with white glaze. We started it over a year ago. It's a process and a learning experience! Trying to get the poly smooth is where we're stuck right now. If ours comes out half as beautiful as yours, I'll be OK with that :)
You know your art! Another beautiful result! Love your work!
That dog is looking at you like "Why is he working so hard?"
Beautiful!! You gave that old beat up dresser a new life!!
Spectacular job..💗
Thank you! 😊
Wow!!!! Beautiful transformation. The color, gold accents are simply beautiful. Wish i had something to transform!! ☺
I love these, so talented . Is this furniture ever for sale? I wish I could be as talented.
Yes. It is often sold before I put the video up. You can do it. Just takes practice. I've got over 800 pieces under my belt!
Wow, you’re super talented. I don’t think I blinked this entire video. Keep up the good work 👍🏼😁
Thank you so much 😀
Stunning! I love the lustre the walnut stain gives to the blue! Does the gold wax come off the handles?
As an aside love the p**n music from early 70’s to mid 80’s 😂
It's fabulous. Thanks for sharing and teaching us how to make beautiful older furniture more modern and more beautiful. Love all your videos. From Ireland 🇮🇪.
Hey Shaddy Guy was there a reason you painted the symbol the 'Sun Cross' when you where painted on the wood stain on the side of the dresser?
I was wondering when someone was going to ask this question. 😃 I sometimes do some sort of cross or X to spread the stain around before doing the full brush strokes. I have no idea why I did it that way this time, nor have I ever knew the many different meanings of the symbol. I thought it was interesting for the video and wondered if anyone would say anything.
Thank you for your reply I did consider if you were making a subversive political statement by painting he Sun Cross but I am not a conspiracy theorist. I love your videos guy I find them relaxing. In a disposable society I applaud you reusing and revitalising pieces of furniture that may have otherwise ended their time in land fill. Keep us inspired. Thank you.
I’ve seen men do some strange things with a tube sock but that is awesome 👏 sanding skills
Beautiful absolutely beautiful!
I had a triple dresser exactly like that one so I had nine drawers. Also it had a chest of drawers and two nightstands and a head and footboard. It belonged to my grandmother. I couldn't stand it and couldn't wait to get rid of it.
Alas that was over 40 years ago so I don't have any regrets about that.
You did a magnificent job and I am overly impressed. I could never imagine that dresser looking so good!!
All the best! 👍👍👍😊
DRESSER 1960S VINTAGE DRESSER. CAME OUT SO BEAUIFUL. YOUR DOG IS SO CUTE. THANKZ FOR SHARING.
Thank you so much!
Amazing job! This dresser is gorgeous!! I learned so much too. Thank you.
I used to have this same dresser in the 60s 70s. Wish I had it now. My dresser had a matching mirrior with it. My parents got rid of it when I went to college. Look on the back should be some mirrior brackets. Dresser looks so beauiful you refurbished. What a fantastic job.
Your jams are killer🎻🎺🎷🎸.I inherited a full set of Drexel. Big dresser with the mirror, a console with three drawers, two petite night tables, and the full bed. Needs touch ups now and again. I notice the cream paint I used yellowed. Probably oil based! It is on the feminine side but makes an exquisite and romantic bedroom depending on how I do the room.
You are an amazing furniture restoration professional!! Your passion of restoring furniture is a talent and gift from God!! I have never seen a video of anyone who takes the time to make a piece of furniture look so high end and current. I enjoy watching you in the process of restoring furniture. You do a beautiful job on every piece you paint!! I love the fact you explain what and why you take the steps you do when working on a piece of furniture. Keep the videos coming! I appreciate your work and I learn so much from you. God bless you.
Thanks for the kind words. ❤
I have a dresser exactly like that one except it has 3 sections instead of two. It has marble inserts across the top. I want to take those out and replace with wood. Your dresser turned out gorgeous! Thank you for the inspiration!
Great idea!
I have a desk I've been wanting to refinish and can't believe how great yours turned out! I had no idea the top could be stained. Can't wait to try it. You did an amazing job, LOVE it!
Amazing. That's my favorite color, too...teal, and, aqua.
Love this! I bought a similar dresser that I want to paint blue with stained top and convert to tv/ stereo stand by taking out lower 4 drawers and making them cubbies.
This dressing is gorgeous !!! Doing the top natural made all the difference. I noticed you’re left handed...that’s why you have an artist eye !!! Left handed people have a tendency to be the artist and poets in our society.
Loved it. I also put my hand on my back when I paint.
