    Every furniture restorer need to watch how you prep every piece of furniture you do. Your step by step process from start to finish is impressive. Nothing is overlooked. The voice overs are just as important. You tell us what you're doing and why. Every now and then, I watch other restorers, but after awhile I stop. Why? They never match what you do. Right away, I compare them to how your process works. You teach as well as demonstrate what you're doing. Your willingness to experiment and even make mistakes is very entertaining. And in the end, another excellent result. Well done Sir.👍

      How good to see this progression from the past to present. Like how the details are so crisp and clear at the end. Never would have thought to do just what you did. Gives me ideas of what I could do, though. Makes us feel beautiful to see it.

    My new favorite channel by far! You are setting yourself apart from the rest by doing all the necessary prep work to make this piece stand out. I was blown away by the final reveal. Just gorgeous. Looking forward to seeing more of your videos. Looks like our channels are very similar in style : ) Barry

    I grew up with the buffet to my grandparents walnut dining room suite similar to this one. It seemed almost sacrilege at first when you were painting a portion of it, but I ended up really liking the finished look. Also it may take longer to do the extra stripping and sanding, but it looks better and one has the satisfaction of knowing it was a job well done. I’m a Canadian who enjoys what you do😊❤.

  • @dochubbell
    @dochubbell 3 роки тому +75

    I don't believe I have seen a beautiful old piece gone over as thoroughly as you did. I mean, you even paid attention to the back of it! Leaving much of the natural wood exposed and protected is a standard of work matched by few. Treating the insides as well as you treat the outside is a sign of a true craft man. Well done.

  • @galady8632
    @galady8632 3 роки тому +12

    Your vision and hard work changed this older beauty into a classic, timeless piece. I always appreciate your attention to details and how clean your items are. In my opinion that is the difference between someone that 'slaps paint on furniture and a true artisan'. Your items definitely fit the Boutique Furniture category, aka 'functional art pieces'.

  • @a.l.a.7847

    I usually default to wanting old wood to stay in its natural state. I was cringing a bit when you started painting it because I felt the natural wood was beautiful enough. But your eye for bringing out completely new looks in old furniture -- without being too "trendy" or garish -- is amazing! I loved the final result and know this venerable old lady of oak will be welcome in many more homes with the updated look. Thank you!

    You are the first furniture flipper that I have come across that actually cleans and sands the entire piece. England is just a treasure trove of vintage furniture.

    I'm an older lady living in Florida & I love how you always remove the hardware before giving the piece a good scrub down. A lot of gunk can hide in the crevices around the hardware. Any buyer is assured that they are getting a very clean piece.

  • @julierobertson148
    @julierobertson148 21 годину тому

    Considering your feelings about sanding, you deserve special recognition for taking on projects that require so much of it. The pieces you choose with lots of intricate carvings are perfect cases in point. Not only lots of sanding, but HAND sanding. I hope it doesn't offend you you when I say that the results of those projects are my favorites, because your extra care makes them turn out so beautifully.
