      This is one of the kindest comments I have ever read on a video. So my guess is the people in your world kevinwentworth, are blessed and thankful to have you in their lives. And…I totally agree with you regarding our beloved “teacher.”

      As a teacher ,retired after several operations and who had redone several houses, and furniture 'fixings', I very much appreciate your teaching and your journey. Thank you and for this commenter. We agree totally. Historic Pennsylvania says hello.

    You have come a long way women, I remember some of your old posts like the day you sold the piece that paid off your student loan and to many others to mention. I’m sure you have had some hard times this year but I know you parents have been really supportive all the way. 2025 is a new start and I know you will continue to go up.

    Hi Lauren from a very very cold Glasgow across the pond ( probably frozen) in Scotland, I loved watching you hand paint again, Santa brought me a sprayer which I will get around to using soon, maybe !!!!!..I love my Zebra brushes along with my Paint Couture brush. Another beautiful piece, I’ve learned so much from you and hopefully my wee business will come together this year, thank you so much x Keep painting ❤️🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

    My parents had a nearly identical bedroom set-dresser, tallboy, and bookcase headboard. I always loved that hardware😢. Your pieces always look so good. Your integrity and attention to detail are second to none!

  • @sandraburtt7319
    @sandraburtt7319 15 днів тому +9

    My parents had that set - the tall dresser, low dresser with attached mirror and two night stands. I painted them for my mom about 8 years ago with Annie Sloan chalk paint and wax (custom mixed a dark blue for her). Now that you’ve done this, I’m inspired to redo and change the hardware. It looks awesome. Thank you for your great work!!

    Beautiful as always. I've watched you since the beginning. Even remember when you videoed your last day as a teacher electing to pivot your career to furniture refinishing. Keep up the good work. Someone will be a fortunate recipient of this piece. Happy 2025!

    It might be just me, but I really liked the old hardware that to me said MCM. I like that era in furniture still in certain pieces but to each their own! Still a beautiful job and so informative.

    I inherited my parents bedroom set from 1960. It's also that blonde mid-century Style. I very carefully stripped it down and stained it dark walnut and it is beautiful. You'd never know it was that horrible blonde wood

    Looks great! I have and redid the nightstands that match this, and would love to find the rest of the set to make match! Mine were the mahogony version. I painted the sides dark blue and used Retique It to make the centers, tops and bases blonde. I kept the orginal hardware and bought them both for $10! They needed a fair amount of love but they're so solid! Kent Coffey Titan I believe is the name

    Very pretty color. While watching this on my Samsung TV the dresser looked such a pretty muted navy in your display. When seeing it while u were sitting next to it looked dark gray. It looked nice. Just thought that was interesting.
    I was wondering why you don’t seem to use a little sponge roller. A house painter friend of mine suggested it do so, which I did and the paint looked so smooth. My son likes it so much he used my leftover paint painting a dining table given to him by a friend and it turned out really nice too. So smooth. I haven’t done much refinishing. So I was just wondering.

    FYI ❗️You can hold the hose of a shop vac with other hand as you sand so not to contaminate work area with so much dust.
