I have a number of mid century pieces that are chip board and a plastic veneer. I can't bring myself to throw them out because they belonged to my parents and were in the house since before I was born. The buffet is okay but the display cabinets have gone all wobbly and rickety after being moved too many times, water has gotten into the bottom of some and blown the chip board. I've been watching ALL of your videos to lean every single way I can potentially save them and breathe some more life into them.
redoing then would be a lovely way to freshen them up while still keeping them in the family. We did this with my great grandma's bedframe and it suits my moms house so much better than it used to
WoW Angie, if I hadn't kept track of where the repair was, I almost wouldn't believe it was ever damaged! This was, by far, my favorite part of the restoration. Your feel for the color variations of grain is astounding. You are a gifted young lady for sure. Most worth of the Master designation. Bravo!🌷🌷
I just love that you do a wonderful mix of complete restoration to its former glory and painting projects that would have otherwise been trashed. You are one of a handful of people on here that know when to fully restore a piece of furniture and when to make it a newer version of its former self. I really appreciate your care of these pieces!! As always continue the amazing work and I will always look forward to watching your videos!!
Wow! What an amazing piece to restore 🤩 The time and dedication you applied to this one was so worthy for the beautiful finish of the end product. This armchair viewer loves to watch and marvel at your patience and expertise to restoring and giving new life to otherwise rejected pieces of furniture 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
I loved watching you fix the patch on this piece. I find it hilarious that every video I watch you mention how long the video is. I can’t stand the 15 sec clips on IG. I know these videos are from 2 years ago but I like to start from the “beginning” of the individual’s journey. Your videos aren’t too long and I definitely have snacks when I’m watching. Great work and thanks for sharing.
Always enjoy your refinishing video’s with it’s blend of 🎼 music, informative tips and your restoration skills. The worst most dreadful furniture pick ups I find the most rewarding to watch. You are truly blessed with your talent and video editing skills…. keep it up😊👍🇨🇦
So I move furniture in the states cross country, and my shipper gave me an old upright piano. The finish is worn down, faded, rings all over, kids stickers all over wood and keys, keys are yellowed, etc. this here is the finish I want emulate. Cant wait to get back home and get started
I don't pretend to know why, but you're the best at helping me start to work on the mounds of furniture in my house that I need to refinish, both MCM and family antiques. I'm grateful.
I watch hours of furniture flippers, and they are great, but when it comes to flipping you are in a different league. So smart and so creative. I love how you stage, and the MUSIC is perfect!! You go girl.
What else is there it say, but AMAZING! Your work is unbelievable. I'm so excited when I see another video is up. Thanks for sharing all of your knowledge and beauty of your finished pieces.
Another amazing piece! This one was interesting because of that incredible repair and because it showcases the fact that some pieces don’t need any paint at all. Sometimes a more modern finish is just the thing to revive an older piece.
Fantastic!!! I think is one of your best instructional videos to date!! I learned so much that I have often wanted to learn how to do and then avoided pieces that would have required that skill. Now I'm ready to give it a go!!! Thank you! You always amaze me and I am so grateful for your kindness in sharing and teaching!!!!
This is the lesson I was waiting for!!! I have what I think is about a 1930s bedroom suite that was damaged while it was in storage. The veneer has come loose in spots and or has broken off. I was hoping I wouldn't have to review the entire top. I will attempt to patch it now. The finish is very dried and flaking off in many places and your scraper is a godsend! I love watching how you transform ugly damaged pieces and turn them into beauties again!
I have a MCM dresser that belonged to my late Mother-in-law. Since my husband passed, I've been wanting to have it refinished and one drawer repaired. It's going to our son, and really wish you were closer to Texas! I would trust you with it, without hesitation. ❣️ .....and the patchwork on this was stellar!! You rock!!
You always get a piece looking like new, or even better than when it was new. Details like using 7 or 8 coats of poly gives it a quality it wouldn't have had when it came off the production line. Excellent as usual.
Restoration pieces are my favorite. It’s great that you took the extra time on the finishing. Most people would just paint it. A good subject for your business channel would be time spent on restoration vs painting or paint stain mix.
I wish I could find those mid century pieces! A grocery store paper bag also works very good for those small nubs! Again, another beautiful piece, especially that patch!
I JUST found my first MCM Dixie dresser for 80 dollars! And I AM COMMITTED to fixing it: started watching your channel and have learned so much! So excited to begin!
As always another beautiful piece. I love the long videos. And I love that you show your steps and explain what, why and how your doing it. A lot of other UA-camrs will just fast forward so quickly and I'm like, " but how did you do that?" Lol. Great job Angie! You are truly talented.
Watching this repair and restoration was therapeutic! I’ve never watched someone replace damaged veneer. For someone in the business for only a few years you do great work. It’s inspiring!
Oh Angie! This turned out so amazing! You work is admirable, not only because you save furniture from the trash, but because you make the world a more beautiful place.
Just came across your channel and as a fellow refinisher your projects are very well done. I appreciate the time you spend to do it right. I get a lot of Frankensteins where someone has slapped it with paint or made bad repairs just to flip it. Thank you for showing folks how to do it right.

Love this because we keep it away from landfills.

A sad looking piece that is now beautifully restored!
Thank you for bringing it back to life! 💖
Totally impressive. I would never have believed it was the same piece if I hadn't watched the video.
I just love that you do a wonderful mix of complete restoration to its former glory and painting projects that would have otherwise been trashed.

I ALWAYS watch every second of your videos. They are never boring and always informative. You do careful and beautiful work
Oh, darling! This piece's finish simply glows. Wonderful job.
You have made me fall in love with MCM and unpainted furniture again. Thank you for your expertise.
You are so welcome!
I love Angie she explains everything she is doing I think she is my favorite you tuber
Wow! What an amazing piece to restore 🤩
The time and dedication you applied to this one was so worthy for the beautiful finish of the end product. This armchair viewer loves to watch and marvel at your patience and expertise to restoring and giving new life to otherwise rejected pieces of furniture 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
Fantastic work! I love the restoration rather than painting over anything and everything!
I love that you didn't paint - you restored it all. Some pieces really deserve staying as they were made. You're very good!
Awe, thank you so much!
Once again, you're really on of my favorite DIY gurus here on UA-cam! What a gorgeous dresser you made!
Loved watching that patch become a permanent part of the piece...wow, Angie 💐 so hooked👏
Find myself dancing to the reveal music😊! Beautifully done!
Your channel is one that my wife and I can agree on. She enjoys the finishing and I like the recycling aspect of your work. Great job as usual.👍

You're so welcome! I'm so glad they're not too long! 😊
I love your longer videos. I learn so much. Thank you. Your creations are exquisite!
This would make Thomas Johnson proud! Amazing work!
I love that you save the wood when you can.
Nailed it 🔨... Again.
Nice work Angie. The piece is beautiful.
Wow, what a beautiful dresser. I so enjoy your videos... the longer the better.
This is the second time I watch this video...hands down my favorite piece ❤️
I like seeing the full.effort. As a serial owner builder doing good things to homes I like seeing the whole.
Thanks for watching!

Thank you so much for watching!
It really turned out lovely. Now a piece that can be handed down. You have impeccable taste!
I have to say, I am really enjoying watching your work...
The patched corner... awesome... 😎
Your finishes are much better than the original! Lovely!
Love that you love a piece you have to work on to bring it back to its original beauty.
Omg this transformation is beautiful. That repair is so well hidden I'm amazed.
Love that you showed the patched area at the end👍 great job
Yes! I was hoping she would show it.
Great repair of veneer installation and use of tints and EXCEPTIONAL completion.
Thank you kindly!
So I move furniture in the states cross country, and my shipper gave me an old upright piano. The finish is worn down, faded, rings all over, kids stickers all over wood and keys, keys are yellowed, etc. this here is the finish I want emulate. Cant wait to get back home and get started
This dresser is absolutely stunning Angie. A lot of hard work, but it sure paid off big time.
I don't pretend to know why, but you're the best at helping me start to work on the mounds of furniture in my house that I need to refinish, both MCM and family antiques. I'm grateful.
Another top shelf refinish, Angie! You can almost hear that piece shouting, "Hallelujah! I've been redeemed!" You are gifted, indeed.
I watch hours of furniture flippers, and they are great, but when it comes to flipping you are in a different league. So smart and so creative. I love how you stage, and the MUSIC is perfect!! You go girl.
What a finely done finish,rich and satin/ velvet. Thank you for showing the details with care.
All the pieces she restores look 1000 times better than the furniture sold in modern stores. These are definitely items worth saving.
Thank you very much!
What else is there it say, but AMAZING!
Your work is unbelievable. I'm so excited when I see another video is up.
Thanks for sharing all of your knowledge and beauty of your finished pieces.
Another amazing piece! This one was interesting because of that incredible repair and because it showcases the fact that some pieces don’t need any paint at all. Sometimes a more modern finish is just the thing to revive an older piece.
My word, Angie, your skills amaze me. The care you take on every piece you refinish is phenomenal! What a beautiful dresser! 👏
Guuurrrrll! That is magnificent. What a transformation! You are indeed very gifted!!
Fantastic!!! I think is one of your best instructional videos to date!! I learned so much that I have often wanted to learn how to do and then avoided pieces that would have required that skill. Now I'm ready to give it a go!!! Thank you! You always amaze me and I am so grateful for your kindness in sharing and teaching!!!!
Wow I so enjoy watching you doing your magic. Every piece looks fantastic and and you are so thorough. That's something I really like. It's quality.
Absolutely beautiful patchwork on the top corner!
A truly handsome and dignified piece. Anyone would love it!
Thank you so much! 😊
This is the lesson I was waiting for!!! I have what I think is about a 1930s bedroom suite that was damaged while it was in storage. The veneer has come loose in spots and or has broken off.

I'm so glad I could help June! Thanks for watching and best of luck with your bedroom suite!
This piece is beyond gorgeous. Great Job.
the patched area is virtually indistinguishable from the rest. excellent work!
Stunning. The poly really brings out the grain. Love it!!
Another gorgeous piece you did. Man I wish I had talent like that.
I have a MCM dresser that belonged to my late Mother-in-law. Since my husband passed, I've been wanting to have it refinished and one drawer repaired. It's going to our son, and really wish you were closer to Texas! I would trust you with it, without hesitation. ❣️
.....and the patchwork on this was stellar!! You rock!!
Thank you again Kristi!! 😊
Another awesome restoration. I love your attention to detail. You stand out.
You always get a piece looking like new, or even better than when it was new. Details like using 7 or 8 coats of poly gives it a quality it wouldn't have had when it came off the production line. Excellent as usual.
I appreciate your showing us each step you had to go through to finish this piece. It reminded me how time consuming rehabbing furniture can be
Beautiful Angie, as always 😊 Great patch job, it’s not even visible, brilliant 🤎
That is my dream dresser! Absolutely stunning. Thanks again for rescuing it. Thumbs up for long videos, too
Angie, I learn from every video. Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge and experience!
Angie-I’m learning so much!! This veneer patch technique you’ve developed is genius and pure artistry as well. ❤
I'm so glad!
Angie, this renovation is why i truely love your channel. Your skills are of expert quality. You are amazing 👏👏👏
It turned out beautifully! The Nutmeg stain is my favorite. You give us so much good information in each video. ⭐️
Thank you very much!
You are definitely gifted. Just beautiful! I love watching these videos!
Restoration pieces are my favorite. It’s great that you took the extra time on the finishing. Most people would just paint it. A good subject for your business channel would be time spent on restoration vs painting or paint stain mix.
Love that idea!
My Lord. This is outstanding!
A beautiful restoration. The patch is perfect. I love your videos and your honesty about the techniques used. Greetings from Spain 🇪🇸
This was an amazing transformation. Your attention to detail gave this piece a new, beautiful life.
I wish I could find those mid century pieces! A grocery store paper bag also works very good for those small nubs! Again, another beautiful piece, especially that patch!
Beautifully rich!! Well done! Your a pro in every way! Your attention to detail is phenomenal!
Superb result as a reward for gentle attention!
Great job! You nailed it! 😄 Thank you for showing the patch work with the chipped veneer that was very helpful.
Wow! WOW!!! Absolutely beautiful piece. Love your attention to detail. Thanks for sharing.
I JUST found my first MCM Dixie dresser for 80 dollars! And I AM COMMITTED to fixing it: started watching your channel and have learned so much! So excited to begin!

Beautiful! And you couldn't tell there was a patch!
Love your work Angie…you’re a great teacher.
As always another beautiful piece. I love the long videos. And I love that you show your steps and explain what, why and how your doing it. A lot of other UA-camrs will just fast forward so quickly and I'm like, " but how did you do that?" Lol. Great job Angie! You are truly talented.
Fabulous job! The patched veneer looks nearly invisible with your creative blending skills.
Great work on the repairs and grain matching. Thank you.
Beautiful restoration! Warm rich color...want to run my hands along to top to feel the silky finish!
I always learn something new when I watch your videos. Thanks for sharing! Waving to you from rainy Vancouver 😊
Your patch work is LEGIT, girlfriend! In my next life; I’m gonna be Angie 2.0! Get after it!!

Absolutely brilliant! You remind me of the care Dasher gives his pieces.
Beautiful work on a timeless piece of furniture.
Really excellent work blending in that veneer patch, so good
Hello from Greece!!! New in this channel and I spent my time watching and learning how to do beautiful restorations!
Great collective work!
Yes! Another great piece !!
Good job 👍🏽 it reminds me of Frank Lloyd Wright !
What a great demo on patching. Thank you.
Can't tell from the camera where the patch even is! That's a well done patch job in my book! Very nice!
Downright Gorgeous! What a stellar job. You are a genius! ♥️
Jaw dropping . Absolutely amazing transformation
Thank you kindly!
Beautiful job!! Another amazing piece renewed & given a new life. Thank you x
WOW. What a beautiful finish.
You have a great eye and are an artist in wood refinishing. Beautiful as usual!
What an amazing job! You are certainly gifted! God Bless!
Just came across your channel and as a fellow refinisher your projects are very well done. I appreciate the time you spend to do it right. I get a lot of Frankensteins where someone has slapped it with paint or made bad repairs just to flip it. Thank you for showing folks how to do it right.
Wow!! You never cease to amaze me. Beautiful restoration. 😊
Thank you so much 😀
I just love all your videos!!! I'm learning so much from you!!! Thank you Angie 🥰
