STRIPPING FINISH on worn out side tables - furniture refinishing & restoration
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 22 апр 2023
- Insect damage & infestation is probably the scariest part about flipping furniture, but thankfully, I don't run into it that often. Woodworm used to be far more common, though it does still exist, as well as other wood boring larvae. It doesn't require damp conditions to exist, but they certainly do thrive in them, and areas where finish is missing are particularly susceptible. This is why it is SO IMPORTANT to make sure your furniture's finish remains intact, and why "ruining the value" by refinishing is a bit of a double edged sword- because if the finish is damaged, the piece is vulnerable to rot, water damage, and insect damage. Where is the "value" in that??
These side tables are not old, but they were made to LOOK old, using multiple tools to create the look of worm holes, and boring trails. It is seen occasionally in modern furniture with an antique style. It helps to "sell" it. Literally and figuratively. But there was finish covering all of the holes, holes were found only on visible areas (the undersides of the top and bottom braces had not a single hole), and the boring trails were all completely uniform in width and definition. If there were REAL holes, they would be more uniform in size, there would be frass (the powdery refuse produced by the insects) in and around the holes, and you would likely see real structural damage, not just surface "wounds".
I hope you enjoy this transformation. ❤️

Detective, alchemist, and a small percentage sorceress -- you made the magic happen again. These would look perfect for just about any decor style. And your tutorial on (not) woodworm was fascinating.
Yes, the finished product would make most people say, "What sorcery is this?" We know it is pure talent.
Awe Gina, thank you so much. I really appreciate such a great comment. You are appreciated!
Pretty ❤
YOUR finish choice made the tables look much more like real antiques than did the manufacturer's finish choice. Your artist eye for color is so amazing. Your formula is a lovely butternut to my eyes.
Agree, on all of this 🙂
Wow, thank you very much! I really appreciate that!
I like the way they turned out. So much nicer than the original color. Good choice!
Thank you so much!
Me too. I like seeing the process and the “before vs after” look of her work. Looks always be very beatiful and has “distinguish appearance”
Your channel has quickly become my favorite because your voiceovers and commentary explaining everything that you're doing. The other channels either paint all the furniture or they have silence except for the scraping sound and don't tell you what they're doing. It's like they try to make it ASMR or something lol
I'm so glad you're enjoying my content! Thank you so much for watching!
Having watched you struggle remove some stubborn finishes, that was VERY satisfying!
Wasn't it though? So clean! Thanks so much for watching Rose!
My jaw dropped when you stripped the finish. You could see the beautiful wood grain so clearly.
Thank you so much for watching!
I liked the yellow, at first. It reminded me of a sunburst. But I really do like the tints you chose and how they turn out in the end. 😊
Many thanks Vickie!
Those are exactly what I have been looking for here in the PNW but with a little smaller footprint to use side-by-side as a coffee table that can be split apart for when I have parties. Those turned out great!
Thanks so much!
So pretty! They look so much better without that thick, shiny finish. And that burled grain on the edges is really nice. They've gone from cheap, big-box to being something I would love in my home. Nice job, as usual!
Thank you so much for watching! 😊
Another great video. The “worm holes” were really interesting. I love what you did to these tables. Love the different woods, whatever they are, and the inlay. Beautiful color!!!
Thank you so much! 😊
I love the way you explain your thought process. And your voice is a perfect narrator tone. Always enjoy your videos.
I'm so glad to hear that!
They're beautiful, and just my style. Being a true "boomer," I grew up with the spindly legged mid-century modern furniture and its not really my thing. I prefer the slightly more ornate pieces like these tables. The table tops are absolutely beautiful and your finish really brings out their beauty. Thanks for a great episode.
You're so welcome! I'm glad you enjoyed them!
Great transformation. They don’t look cheap anymore. Finish is so important.
I agree with you completely. Thanks so much for watching!
While not my favourite style, these are two solid tables, and the refinishing has made them far more attractive!
Love watching your videos. Back in the early 70's we had a coffee table that looked similar to the top of these. We were told it was pecan wood.
Good guess! I'm leaning toward Mango wood. Thanks so much for watching!
@@TranscendFurnitureGallery looks like a mix of burl and tiger wood veneer on the top
@@TranscendFurnitureGalleryThe wood reminds me of my grandfather's briar pipe. Did you consider that?
Im in awe as to how two cheap tables could turn out so beautifully. Im in Fl and trying to refurbish furniture. I love doing it. I love to stain and paint. Thank you for the great lessons.
You're so welcome Kathryn!
Sundays afternoon is my me time and watching your videos is part of it. I miss you when you do not make a video. So glad you are back.
This weeks video is a Q&A video being released tonight to mark the 2 year Anniversary of my channel - just so you can be aware of it. Thanks so much for watching!
Those turned out so beautiful, Andrea!❤
I'm actually Angie, Andrea is my partner. Thank you for watching!
@@TranscendFurnitureGallery Oops! That's right. Sorry about that.
Very nice choice of color and finish. Interesting how just that change made them look more modern m
I thought so as well.
Thanks so much for watching!
Why is it that stripping finish or paint is so gross but so satisfying?? 😅
The ultimate juxtaposition. lol
Nice work!
That wood is reminiscent of the bedroom set handed down to me, which has burl wood inlays on the doors and drawers. The writing on the back says Danish Walnut, and my parents got it when they were married in 1957.
I don't remember seeing a manufacturer, only a store logo. And... I don't think I'm going to move furniture this evening. LOL!
The set has never been refinished-it needs it, but the patina is a deep honey/molasses color. I LOVE it.
I can't believe you didn't want to drag heavy furniture around late at night Cathy! (I don't blame you in the least) 😉😊 It sounds like a gorgeous set! Thanks so much for watching!
Love the color and soft finish. Makes me think of old leather.
Thank you very much!
Gorgeous, as usual
Thanks Amber!
I did actually like the yellow color. It was very striking. What you went with is fine, but it doesn't jump out at you like the yellow did.
The yellow was jumping just a bit too much for me, personally.. but I get that some folks would like it!
It would've been perfect for someone who wanted to add gold to it i.e. Kasha style
Perfect color for stain, brings out the texture of the wood. May not be your style but you gave it a new beautiful life :)
Thank you kindly!
I expected to be disappointed because i loved the yellow (yes, really!), but the results are stellar. Very elegant. I'm always amazed.
Thank you kindly!
As usual, they are now high end, desirable pieces. Beautiful!!
Thanks so much for watching!
Being almost 60 😮...I remember the worm-hole style. I'm glad you said it was fake at the end...I was going to say that!
Thanks so much for watching!
You have my absolutely favourite furniture restoration channel. Your modest, calm and authoritative delivery and the quality of your design choices and workmanship are compelling. I had Ben, one of my guinea pigs, happily purring (and pooing and peeing, it has to be said) on my knee earlier this evening, as we watched your transformation of the Art Deco nightstands. Stunning. Keep 'em coming.
Give Ben some love from me - he's clearly got impeccable taste. 😉Thank you so much for watching Roger!
Its amazing the contrast with the colour once it's on wood(s)!
I love how the colour turned out. Much prettier than the original finish.
Thank you so much!
Wonderful teaching,Angie. Thank you.
You're very welcome Nancy!
The second jar you made of a coffee-colored shade looked awfully pretty in the jar
Thanks so much!
I live in the southeastern USA. Yellow pine is common here. I like yellow egg yolks and the yellow sun in the sky, beyond that I'm not interested. Your choices for the end tables were spot-on. Your attention to detail and tips are always impressive.
Thank you so much!
The tables turned out great. It's interesting to see how man-made distressing is discovered. The future restorers will have an interesting time trying to figure it out.
Yes they will! Thanks for watching Troy!
You are so meticulous in your work. I could learn a lot about patience and being in the moment and enjoying the process from you.
Thanks so much for watching!
I missed the premier! We didn't have intertubes but as soon as I was online again, I stopped by with a cup of coffee to watch this weeks vid! I appreciate the surfprep, but it doesn't have a cool nickname like Mr. DeWalt! I'm glad you explained why people would simulate the pest damage. it was breaking my brain the whole vid. I do like them a little lighter and not as dark as the original finish. they look warmer and more cozy
It's ok Tonja it was at a bit of a different time today! I'm so glad you watched and enjoyed it. ❤️
These would add such a homey feel to almost any room because of the warm color. Nice job, as usual!
Thank you kindly!
I’m right there with J Randall, I recommend people go watch you work your magic to friends and strangers alike. Another 10 out of 10, my girl. They turned out beautifully. Well done as always.
Thank you so much Amie!
What a yummy light caramel color you created. ❤️ Almost a farmhouse vibe yet very traditional. I can't imagine have any problems finding a new owner for these.
Thank you so much! I really appreciate that!
Those tables ended up looking wonderful😍
Thank you so much!
And the wood whisperer does it again, ladies and gentlemen!!! Gorgeous choice of color to bring out the majesty of the wood. It is absolutely stunning so I don’t know what you’re talking about when you said it doesn’t inspire shock and awe. In my eyes this is fantastic! Keep it up ma’am 😊
Thank you Lisa!
Very nice job, Angie. This size and style would not go well in our home, but someone is going to love them. I watch the video for pure enjoyment, and then watch it again noting all the technical things such as blending stains and oils. Thanks for taking the time to give us tips on how it's done. .Bless you and keep doing your magnificent work. Love, Dave & Amy.
You're so welcome you two! Thanks so much for watching!
This was a huge improvement on that yellow tone. Well done
Thank you so much for watching!
Another great save! What a transformation... SAVED from the trash. You're super talented.
Thank you very much!
Love the colours you chose! Turned out great!
Thank you so much!
The color really enhanced the grain of the mystery wood. Another beauty
(I think it's mango wood) Thanks so much for watching!
These came out gorgeous, Angie!! Most of the wood in my house is this color. So it feels so familiar to me. I just love them. Thanks for not painting the base black.
You're welcome Carrie! I'm glad you like them!! 😊
Loved the colour 😍 it really made the beautiful grain and burl just pop out.
Thank you!
I wonder if the veneer is birch and the main body of these is acacia, especially with how yellow that veneer was under the original finish. Your refinishing and colour choice definitely improved them from where they started.
I'm actually thinking mango wood. Thanks so much for watching!
Amazing how you could see through the varnish and know what beautiful wood was underneath!
Sometimes you just have a feeling about a piece or pieces. Thanks so much for watching!
Another beautifully done transformation! ❤ By looking at the wood through the video, my dad thinks it’s a teak wood. Regardless, they are gorgeous!
Good guess, but I don't think it is. It has a very, very distinctive grain pattern. I'm leaning toward one of the fruit woods - maybe mango wood. Thanks for watching!
The color turned out so pretty!
Thank you so much!
They turned out beautifully, you are very good at mixing just the right stain, so warm and rich!
Thanks Patti!
These came out really pretty!! Not my style at all (I’m “cottage pine”), but the veneer on the tops is just beautiful!! ❤
Thanks for watching!
I prefer this style of furniture over mid century, personally. But I'll watch whatever you make because you have the perfect balance of talking/ teaching & images. Plus your work is amazing!
Thank you so much Julia! I know a lot of people love these kinds of pieces so wanted to make sure I included something outside my norm.
Gorgeous as always, Angie! I realized that my motives for watching your transformations have shifted. Instead of viewing them as "ooh what poor abused treasure will she rescue this time," it's become "ooh I hope it's really some broken down ugly thing she lets her imagination go with!" These aren't "ooh ah!" But they are incredible in how you can save an ugly mass produced piece and make it look SO much better than it ever dreamed it could be.
Haha I love it! I'm really glad you like how they turned out.
They may not be your usual cup of tea, but they came out beautifully! The grain and burl on this mystery wood is quite striking, and I think your choice really helps it pop.
Thank you very much!
So beautifully made!
Thanks for watching!
Awww the one table has two hearts in the middle!!❤❤
Thanks so much for watching!
What a beautiful job!
Thank you very much!
Looks fab
Thank you so much!
Looks great! Love your choice of stain colour.
Thank you very much!
they look a million times better!! good choice on the colour and for someone who is into this style they will love these!
Thanks so much for watching!
Good morning!
Afternoon here but hello!! 😊
Very nice result!
Thank you so much!
Perfect choice of finish.
Thanks!
Turned out really well
Thank you!
@@TranscendFurnitureGallery you’re welcome
Perfect!
Thanks so much Kathy!
They turned out beautifully
Thank you so much!
Wonderful! Great color!
Thank you!
Once again, the results are beautiful. Softer, more naturally colored, and not covered in too many layers of shiny topcoat.
Thank you so much for watching!
What is it about stripping the finish that is so satisfying to watch? Great job!
The renewal process is definitely a satisfying one. Thanks so much for watching!
Beautiful!
Thanks!
I love your camera work when you were stripping the tabletop. The close up on the edge of the scraper as it peeled off the old finish is so satisfying.
The new finish looks wonderful. The wood is so warm and inviting. I can understand how you were drawn to these tables, because I felt the same way when I saw the beautiful tabletops.
I'm so glad you like them Shirley! Thank you so much for watching! 😊
I think these came out really beautiful. I try to absorb all the info, explanations, techniques and recommendations...learn as much as I can. I'm grateful that you share your knowledge. Excellent job.
I'm so glad I can help! Thanks for watching!
A beautiful refinishing off these side tables ! So happy that the yellow color is gone an that the new color fitting so well with this type off tables. So the choice you make was perfect !!! Love your video as always !!
I'm so glad Albert! Thanks for always watching! 😊
these turned out so pretty
Beautiful ! Your approach is so professional. Love the color they turned out ❤
Thank you very much!
You worked your magic and made these pieces amazing
Thanks Kit!
Smashed it!!❤🦘
Thank you very much! 🙂
Is it wrong that I found watching you scrape off that old finish so satisfying?
If it’s wrong, I don’t wanna be right. Hahaha
Those are lovely!
Thank you!
So pretty!
Thank you very much!
Beautiful!!!!
Thanks!
So Lovely! 💖
Thank you!
They came out great
Thank you so much!
this is gorgeous. I completely hate the fake damage on modern pieces. it's wasteful to make, to buy and is inevitably thrown away... unless someone lovely like you comes along and actually makes it look very good
Thank you so much for watching! 😊
These two would work well ganged up together as coffee tables in a big room with modern rustic elements. That elegant style with a dry finish goes really well with rustic, primitive, and modern pieces.
They would look great there wouldn't they? Thanks so much for watching!
Beautiful as always
Thank you so much for watching!
Great refinish!
Thank you!
Very satisfying seeing that finish come off.
I agree, it came off so smooth!
I refinished an old dresser with real wood worm holes in the bottom of one of the drawers. I left them because I thought they added to the dresser’s story. These tables were so different then you usually do but they turned out beautifully.
They were very different from my norm. Thanks so much for watching!
Beautiful work!
Thank you very much!
I had a whole dining set that had wormwood holes. It was so beautiful. He gave it away.
I'm so sorry to hear that! Thank you so much for watching!
I'm glad you saved these two tables. They look amazing.
Thank you very much! 😀
Odd enough now that I finished this video, I realize I have the same table purchased to repair and restore. Thanks for revealing the techniques and products you used to illustrate the possibilities.
You're so welcome! Best of luck with your piece! 🙂
Beautiful tables.🤩
Thank you so much!
That colour is amazing 🤩
They turned out really well I think. Thanks so much for watching!
Beautiful, understated and nice color!
Thank you very much!
these turned out fantastic!
Thank you so much!
