In this makeover, I transform an old vanity to a pair of MCM nightstands, featuring custom made handles and legs, and a lot of Bondo repairs.
My initial plan for this makeover was to stain one of the drawers on each piece; however, I also really wanted to try out the shown leg design for a long time, and I decided that a stained drawer would add one too many design elements to the overall look.
Let me know what you think!

"This is a fork."
I'm glad you made sure to include that information - Ariel would've been VERY confused otherwise. Now mermaids everywhere can breathe a sigh of relief. 🙏
😅🤣😂 you`re cute

Why mermaids?
Those legs are incredible. They make these nightstands what they are…a piece of real design work.
Upon unboxing, I was immediately upset at how the rails were very noticeably bent. But I kept going, all tools needed to assemble were included ruclips.net/user/postUgkxqtX4Dxs6aecAZEuz6GY5-d81YecKCshn and I had it set up in about 30 minutes. Honestly I love this thing, make sure to read the measurements and measure your space so you know if it'll work for you. I bought this to put inside my closet, underneath where I hang my clothes and it is absolutely perfect! It is VERY sturdy and all drawers glide easily and mine are stuffed, and they are still flush when closed.
Very nice work. Great photography and editing, too. No annoying music to distract or detract from the video. I become totally engrossed. Thanks.
Why am I always smiling at the end of your projects? Because...they are amazing. The process and the finish, you young man are a master at refinishing.
Absolutely love the legs and drawer pulls. Spot on styling.
Those take me back to the 1950’s when they were really in style.
Andy…you always blow it out of the park. So detailed oriented, I could watch you work all day!
I Love that you don't have annoying music on your channel. Thank you.
I laughed when a giant putty knife appeared to squish woodfiller all over a lovely room full of furniture - funny juxtaposition. Good job on the night stands, too...
Ok, so this has to be my favourite project of all of yours so far. The production of your videos is absolutely superb and your craftsmanship is second to none. Hats off to you, Andy, once again. 👌👏
So glad I found your channel right at the very beginning. Watching your projects evolve over time has been amazing 🙌 Bright blessings as ever, from me on the Somerset coast 🇬🇧
❤️❤️
Vanity, vanity,all is vanity. Not when Andy gets ahold of it. Beautifully designed and thoughtfully executed.
You're house must look like a museum with all those beautiful pieces you produce !
Yea! Give us a house tour!
VERY IMPRESSIVE...specially building the legs!!!! WOW they are absolutely perfect...I would take a lifetime if I had to make them🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣...AND the handles...bravo!!!!
The legs have set the style to it, plus the color choice very tasteful too! You are an artist before anything 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼🙌🏼👊🏼😜
I am always thrilled to see you've posted a video. For such a young man, your pride in your craftsmanship is wonderful to see. It makes me proud for you at the same time. Great job on this transformation. I was sad to see so much painted but the wood grain accents you added really gave them a classic appeal. ❤
The legs and handles you made are beautiful. They bring the nightstands to a whole new level literally and figuratively.
Вы -музыкант,поэт,художник! Детали поют в Ваших руках!💯💯💯 БРАВО!!!👏👏👏👏👏 ТВОРЧЕСКИХ УСПЕХОВ в реставрации,чего-бы то ни было!😊❤ Очень красиво,опрятно, МАСТЕРСКИ!!!❤
I’m so obsessed with how you did the legs; they look spectacular!
Unbelievable! You make miracles with a table belt sander! Your creations elevated this piece to an object of desire.
I'm impressed with your creativity and artistry, and I love that you save scraps of wood and use them in your pieces. I look forward to seeing your future projects.
The legs and handles are pieces of art! Amazing color! Awesome nightstands! Thanks so much for sharing
Great end pieces, but I'd love to see you do something like a writing desk with a fold down lid. My great-grandfather's desk is a converted church organ with felt and leather lining, and it's a spectacular piece of furniture I'm excited to have passed on to me one day. These furniture remodel videos are always so soothing to watch, or even just have them on in the background while I work. They may be power tool sounds, but for some reason, the way you film these videos very zen. Love it!
Not only are your woodworking skills and creativity off the charts, but your video editing is amazing as well! Enjoyed so much. Beautiful work!!!
You are a magician! Beautiful. Please make something from the center of the original vanity. PS you are quite the gardener, too.
The videogrpahy, the transitions, the framing the editing AND the transformation of this piece are all amazing!!! Every video is art 👏👏
beautiful, love the legs and the handles
I am blown away by how this units turned out from what it used to be....your creativeness is beyond comprehension. Well done. The "green/blue" colour is beautiful. Well done👌👌👌👌👌💯🏅
A fantastic metamorphose (for Not saying Transformation as the comment bellow). And the most enviable is how you keep your hands delightfully manicured while making that work.
These are seriously elegant pieces of well crafted furniture now. Such a great job again, Andy. I can tell you love doing this work, through the thinking you put into it and no doubt an enormous amount of patience. I wonder if this is a kind of meditation for you.
Incredible ~ !
So much new life & attitude, I think they'll just "walk" out of any room they don't like ~
Those legs are a thing of beauty. Beautifully hand crafted!
this is a guy that reinvests in himself he has all the gear and when he mentions he got this or that piece from the roadside pickup that's brilliant it brings in another type of viewer great videos close to perfect
In the US Bondo has a product specifically for wood, I wish it was available here. Spectacular as usual.
Great talent for restoring furniture but also for filming and editing ! 👍
Somehow didn't see the legs coming and they took my breath away. STUNNING.
Not only are you great at transforming furniture, you are also a great videographer/video editor. The amount of skill here is wild
100% this comment. I'm ASTOUNDED at the all-around amazing talent from start to finish, in all aspects.
Skill? This guy is a hack! He’s Martha Stewart’s wet dream!
I just said this on a separate video! I restore furniture too and have recorded them but I just don’t have the patience for editing. I just dumped them all onto a flash drive where I’m sure they will remain forever 😂
Второе рождение мебели!Как здорово,что вы используете старые столешницы для новых изделий,ножки и ручки просто великолепны своей самобытностью и древесной текстурой.
The legs are everything. 😍 Thank you for sharing such a stunning creation.
Another transformation from the master! As a little girl in the 50s I would watch my dad building with his many hand tools in the basement of our Philly row home. I get that same feeling watching you work with your hands. Love the beautiful wood touches; remind me of Danish modern.
I love these. The legs and handled make them, and the wood stain complements the green nicely.
I really love the fact that you work outside and show bits of nature. Your videos are the best!
All I can say is WOW! Stunning. 👏👏👏👏
I really admire you skill in designing and then building the legs and drawer handles. A 5 degree angle is simply beautiful.
Not only your wood skills are phenomenal, but also you video skills. Taking the moment to highlight some of your exteriors is really a balm for the soul... 🌹🌹 It must be a nice place to work. Peace and quiet.
You are really a true artist. Keep those videos rolling!
PD: You have a beautiful voice. 🥰🥰
The middle piece would make a perfect matching complimentary table.
honestly watching these videos is just incredibly helpful for people (such as myself) that like to take on furniture or home makeovers. I feel like im learning a lot just watching you work and how careful you are to conserve what can be preserved.
Felicidades muy bien.
As hecho 4 proyectos majestuosos
1 as rescatado una joya de la basura
2 as disfrutado haciendolo
3 nos as regalado un tutorial muy bueno.
4..y e disfrutado viendolo.
Muchas gracias y bendicipnes para ti.
Te lo dice una forofa de la restauracion..
Wow! I couldn't see your vision at first, but those are beautiful! I love the legs you built on them, they stand out. Good job!!!
Jeez these are stunning. The legs, wow, so creative.
The sock method to put the stain on. Genius! I will definitely be using that in future!
Perfect! What a craftsman you are. Thank you for sharing.
Wow. Those are gorgeous. I particularly love the legs, and how they go up a little on the sides. Beautiful.
9:36 Beautiful to see you using the old sock. I love your projects because you recycle, reuse, and repurpose anything and everything
Every time I watch one of your videos my jaw just drops. Like I can't even- WOW you are so talented
It's always amazing. But this time I just wanted to make a point to say so. Also, you are the ONLY place on RUclips that I want to hear/watch every SECOND
😍😍👍👍
Just one thing to say: wow! What a transformation. The handles and legs are so beautiful.
I'm astounded at your hand accuracy on that sander. So good 👍
WOW, WOW, WOW!! Simply stunning!! 😍
WOW, WOW, WOW !!! Theses are absolutely beautiful and you did an awesome job !!!
Hi Andy, love your editing. Very nice legs and handles
Andy -- not only are you talented and skilled at furniture rehab, you -- or someone in your circle -- are a mighty fine filmmaker! Kudos to you, sir!
🙏🏻❤️❤️
i love wood working and refurbishing videos but i have to say the way you film these and the “simple” seeming edits are just so beautiful and immersive, it shows me the love not only for the furniture but the process and it keeps me coming back to your videos for more than a year now. it makes me so happy to think that people/you do these great things with their lives and let us all have a peak at it. thank you
Wow, those are just STUNNING ! Congratulations on another beautiful restauration !
The whole time you were making the legs I couldn't picture what you intended to do. On the finished nightstands, they look as though they have always been there, and any other design would ruin the perch effect. Simple, clean, elegant, and beautiful. Thank you!
Stunning craftmanship... excellent work.
Would love to see the middle bit turn into an entryway table :) lovely video and transformation
Wow, simply beautiful! The wood legs and handles cut and sanded to perfection are exquisite. The teal I was unsure about at 1st, I love teal btw, but with the wood accents really stands out as a special piece of furniture. I would decorate a room around these stands, love them!
The craftsmanship and the videography here is awesome! You need your own show on hgtv! Great job!
As always-amazing! Love the way you utilise scraps and upcycle. And those legs😍.
I love your creative segments, the magazine in the frame and the paste, the flower and the sandpaper looking like a butterfly, so cool.
I jump as soon as I see you have a new video! You are such a master craftsman, you are amazing! I love watching your videos, you take something that most people would trash and you make it beautiful and one of a kind. Thanks so much for sharing your vision and your talent with all of us. Take care, stay safe.
the 'this is a fork' and 'shaken not stirred- stirred not shaken' dude the sense of humor is impeccable
Beautyful!!! The legs and handles are stunning.
Somehow I am always relaxed and calm after watching your videos....another skill of yours😉👍
At this point I’m binge watching your videos amazing work
Another beautiful design, I LOVE the legs!
I hope that for all your creativity and time you put into these new creations you’re paid handsomely for this beautiful wrk. I’ve loved every piece you’ve done. 👍🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
Stunning! I love that you reused wood from another furniture piece to make the legs and handles. I inherited an old vanity that was my grandmother's. This is a great idea for that piece since I don't have need for a vanity, but I do need nightstands.
They are utterly gorgeous
Oh WOW!! You are the true magician, those night tables are insanely gorgeous 10/10
00:58 best "framing" I've seen in a while. Thanks for showing you methods. Nice result!
Wow...another stellar transformation...you are not only an incredible craftsman, but an artist as well. So brilliantly creative, from the original piece to this stunning final set...there is nothing beyond your scope that you cannot transform.
B.E.A.U.T.I.F.U.L🤩😍🥰 REALLY BEAUTIFUL!
Absolutely beautiful! You are so talented! God Bless!
Love your philosophy and presentation. I feel I’m watching an artist work. Such respect for reuse. Even toe socks. 😊
ABSOLUTELY GORGEOUS. And your video work is equally as meticulous and outstanding. Talented, artistic man.
Growing up my parents had heavy, light-colored wood (oak?) nightstands. Years later my mother told me they had been part of a vanity that was taken apart. She didn't say why that was done but I think she did say she regretted doing it. Not sure. Yours, on the other hand was the absolute right thing to do and you did a beautiful job with the nightstands.
Amazingly beautiful!
The dark stain captures me every time
I am just in awe of both your woodworking skills and your videography skills. Truly amazing!
WOW I have seen many of your makeovers but the legs on this one took my breath away. The handles as well are so beautiful. Thank you for sharing your talent with us.
I Love them! So nice to see worn out old furniture get a second life!
These came out amazing and great job using leftover wood!
Your eye for detail is spot on….your transformation was brilliantly executed…brilliant work
The legs and pulls! Really artful. It’s impressive that you imagined it from where it was to what you created.
They look amazing 😻
Another terrific job Andy. You never cease to amaze me with your vision and eye for detail! Well done
Nice! You did the best you could with them. Most people would have trashed the piece. I like the legs and handles you put on them.
Absolutely stunning. The legs are everything!
Beautiful design with those legs. 🌟
Great job…enjoyed watching you,you turned something old and ugly into a beautiful work of art
By far my favorite!!
