WARNING: PAINT WILL BE APPLIED

Thank you so much for watching. This old vanity had been sitting in my neighbor's garage for quite a while. When they decided to downsize, sell their house, and move into a trailer, the vanity ended up in their dumpster pile. Luckily, my husband saved it and brought it home to me. Old vanities like this usually make perfect nightstands. However, this one was surprisingly sturdy, and I started t...

Laminate bookshelf makeover
Переглядів 7764 місяці тому
This bookshelf was a garage sale find. The only reason my husband picked it up was the midcentury legs it has. And the price was just $5. I have already used the legs for a different project and the unit was supposed to be taken to the land field. I didn't think it was worth the effort. Well, I guess it was! It was sold within 15 min

it is fantastic!
it is really nice!
Looks great!👍
Impressive and fancy with technology. You have a winsome way of working with beautiful and professional results. I do miss a voice over even a greeting would be nice. 🎉
Thank you! 😊 I am still not too sure about voicing over because I feel I everything was told here on UA-cam so many times that I don’t bring anything new. So instead of tutorial like videos I would do entertaining ones. But you are right greeting at the beginning is a good idea!
Super Gorgeous.
Awesome restoration, could you linger a little longer on the finished piece. Thank you dad
Very nice. What brand of stripper did you use?
Thank you:) I used acetone, not a stripper, the brand is Solvable
It’s literally in the video lol
@@marydumois4242 Thanks, I saw it, but it went too fast for me to read. Plus I didn't see it was acetone and not stripper.
Nice transformation, but I prefer narration and a list of products used.
Класс
Well that was a fun video! And a lovely transformation as well!
Thank you 😊
Lovely
Beautiful work! What color is the stain you used?
Thank you! The stain colour is American walnut
Gorgeous

Thank you:) no it’s veneer
Stunning transformation!
I love it!
This is by far one of my favorites! Your videos are great and clear. I can understand what you’re doing, even though you don’t narrate. 😊
Beautiful result. One of your best! I love In My Garage 😂
Thank you!❤️
Beautiful job ❤
Thank you! 😊
Had to mute to watch, but I did watch.
Hard to believe it’s the same piece of furniture. Great job!!
Absolutely gorgeous and I MISS You Talking my friend ❣️❣️
Wow, turned out gorgeous! Love the color looks so awesome! Wondering why you don't talk anymore! I enjoy hearing you explain the process! Absolutely gorgeous transformation! 😊❤
Simply gorgeous! I love what you did with it.
That is very beautiful. I liked your video because you didn’t talk and it moved quickly. I guess we’re impatient people. 😊
Beautiful job ❤
Thank you! 😊
OMG, what an amazing transformation! This is absolutely gorgeous! Love the wood on the glass doors, looks so awesome! The two toned wood with the paint is outstanding! You will sell this quick! Absolutely stunning! 😊❤
Thanks so much! 😊
Wow! What a makeover! This looks really great!
Thank you! 😊
Way cool!
What foresight!!
would you be interested in a brand collaboration?😃
Looks really cool and boom I started dancing Folklorico ah woo ahh😂 viva Mexico 🇲🇽
💃🏼💃🏼💃🏼
I'm not sure about this
Incredible! Kept me guessing til the end. 😲Love it.
Thank you 😊
Wow! Love this. You have vision.
I just bought a similar one that needs some love. My sideboard has the same made in Sweden stamp as yours!
Great work also on your restoration!
I just started watching the video and I have one request: Don't do this! A piece of furniture with so much personality doesn't deserve it.
Painted is better than ending up in the dumpster where the piece was going to 😌 unfortunately there was not much veneer left to restore. And reapplying the veneer wasn’t an option for me because I wouldn’t be able to sale to break even
Please loose the blending... The main color is gorgeous . Keep it simple.
Nice job ❤
🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥супер
As soon as I saw the picture of the piece I knew it was destined to become side tables!
I really tried to do something else but it didn’t work out 🫣
do you know if any of these vintage sideboards can be dismantled? I can see that this one has rounded corners so probably glued together in one piece but others have flat panels. Are there any vintage brands that made sideboards which can be dismantled? Preferably British brands.
Have a merry one. And, all the best in 2025
Merry Christmas to you and your family
Thank you so much! I have my great grandmother dresser and have been looking for a way to restore it.
You’re very welcome! I hope you’ll enjoy working on your great grandmother’s dresser. Thank you for watching 🙏
