    I think it looks great! I like the way you made the upper and lower fit so well together and I think making the top a little darker will make it look even better.

    It's looking fantastic!👏I would personally take a little bit extra time to do the bottom of the closet again if you ask me🙃 I think it's really worth it. Then 1 extra old wood in the bottom of the chest,some doors/handles and and a dark stain at the top and voilà! 100% restored,beautiful and fully functional! You're doing a very good job guys! Bravo❤🎉👏

    I think it looks amazing, I'd personally burn the wood for the wardrobe rather than stain , and add rope handles for a rustic look,
    But I've no doubt it will look amazing no matter what you decide 😊

    It’s beautiful! So glad you preserved the rustic patina on those planks. As always, love your music choices. The only thing I missed was David saying “Bye bye” at the end; that always makes me smile. You’re both so adorable to watch. Thanks for the video!

    It looking so much nicer then i though ! And when you put stain on the closet it will match even more with the draw part of this closet ! Nice video and a nice job !!

  • @minime7375
    @minime7375 15 днів тому +18

    I really like the result❤ For the sides of the drawer fronts (the ones that bother David) and even for the wardrobe maybe you could try burnishing instead of staining? Like you did on your front door, with a blowtorch, then oil it.
    I didn’t realize what you were trying to do, I thought the base would be wider (like those old kitchen pantries with the wide base and narrower cupboard on top) but you were trying to match the width😊 Got it now.

    Came out so great! So many were freaking out about the size of the bottom compared to the top and obviously you two knew what you were doing!

  • @nicolenicrylee1266
    @nicolenicrylee1266 14 днів тому +1

    I love it - it's awesome and suits your house and other projects. I would do exactly what you mentioned - use the wire bush on the top section, stain and wipe. Oil the bottom. Well done guys 🤗

    Old Farm wood restored like an antique. I like it. Always a learning experience. Very Kool, and as always little expense. A bitty tip, jus a reminder when pushing wood thru the table saw. it is the wood between the Blade & Fence that pinches, and kicks back. Push that part all the way thru. 👍👍.. Be blessed🙏🙏

  • @davidnaudi2601

    Can you tie a beauty piece between both pieces plus it would hide the end grain also.
    Love what you did with the draws

  • @colleendoss5366
    @colleendoss5366 14 днів тому +1

    Very nice I love the old wood and staining the top the same not so sure about white washing the doors on top do you have the old doors ? Or making new ones i think it would look awesome with door frame and maybe tin with joles punched like flowers or a desing or a screen

  • @e-billy1855

  • @Deeply-k3t
    @Deeply-k3t 14 днів тому +1

    The solution to lifting the cupboard is excellent but I think you should sand it some more. The grain will not be lost and it will look cleaner.

  • @mariannesvensson3660
    @mariannesvensson3660 14 днів тому +2

    Stain only your repairs! Let the old one be natural. It looks good as it is with a darker bottom. They will never match in style so just let them be this much unmatched in colour too. If you’re very keen, take a picture and change it in photoshop first. You know everything doesn’t have to be dark 😉 Sometimes you need lighter things inside, especially in such a dark corner.

  • @pattimeredith9621
    @pattimeredith9621 14 днів тому +1

    I think your ideas to finish off the closet are spot on. I knew you had a plan to make it look rustic to match the top. A little dark stain and the whole piece will look fabulous!!

    Didd you treat them for wood worm? I think you should have experimented with sanding the board a bit more. If you oil it it will get much darker.

    I do love old wood. Reminds me of summers with grandpa. We'd find something that needed building or repaired and head to his old stockpile side of the shed.The oldest, scruffiest, dirtiest pieces would turn out the prettiest with so much character once cleaned up and stained. Such good times. Thanks for the flashbacks.
    Absolutely love the armiore base. I think that making the top match in color is a great idea, I'm not so sure about the white wash, but you twos eye for style never fails.

  • @jeanelliott7491
    @jeanelliott7491 14 днів тому +1

    Oh wow, this is wonderful. I do think that you should stain the top to try to match the bottom. . I can't believe how nice that bottom looks ...of course I shouldn't have questioned it because you always do such a good job. Wonderful! I'm always anxious for the next video to see what you're going to do next. You both do such good jobs. I do miss seeing more of the animals though.

    I think it looks great as is! Love that old wood you used for the bottom. i wouldn't use any metal for knobs or handles. The waves in the drawer fronts work to pull them open. But if you really want handles, maybe you could make something out of wood. Great job!

    The bottom does look like a real old chest. I really like the vision for it. Great job you guys for picking out the wood and cutting it to fit the Chester drawers. Can't wait to see the finish product.

I have a very old house too, and we have used old dark wood we have had to rip out (ceiling beams etc) to make new things like a long bathroom vanity with fancy sinks on top. It took us much longer to figure things out than you though! I love reliving our triumphs as you both discover how to make new things. Thank you!
