This piece turned out stunning I just love the wood on the top and the paint and the distressing really helps everything to pop thank you so much for sharing have a great evening and God bless you and your family
Thank you Cathy! Always appreciate your comments! Bless you!
I vote Leaf blower. LOL The piece turned out so beautiful.
Lol love it!
Absolutely beautiful! Would love that piece in my home😀
Thank you! 😊
I use my leaf blower all time on my furniture
LOVE it! cracked me up when I went back to input the video footage!
Loved it! It looks so refreshed. I love the details in the door. About to start out homeschool back up as well on Tuesday!!! Man juggling it all is very busy! Good luck my friend, Sarah
Thank you friend!
This turned out beautifully. Keep your goals transparent- not that it’s anyone’s business what you do with your profit.
Thank you so much! Yes it certainly helps us meet them!
Looks great!
I love all the details on the doors!!! And now you can actually see them.
Thank you!!
Love your creative reimagining of your pieces. My only comment concerns your background music. I understand it can be expensive to purchase but if you have to use free music can you keep the volume as low as possible so it doesn’t distract from your wonderful work.
You guys are awsome!
Wow that gave it a new life looks awesome
That's absolutely stunning! Great job!

Beautiful 😍
Andrea Roth Thank you! We appreciate you watching!
What an amazing transformation, it is beautiful! I’m curious about what, if anything, you do with the top of this piece? I’m a new subscriber and haven’t had time to binge watch the rest of your videos, on my to do list. I also have to commend you and your husband on turning the unfortunate loss of his job in to an amazing opportunity for your family. You’ve epitomized the American dream! Best wishes for the continued growth of your business and channel, and thanks for sharing.
Thank you so much for your sweet comment! Thanks for watching!
Watching him angle the sprayer to get all the details makes me think this would not be fun to paint by hand! Beautiful transformation!!
Girl! You know it! thanks for watching!
Really pretty 😍
Thank you friend!
Of course you could have used some gilding for the decorative bits.
Wow! What a difference the white makes to the design. Before, you could hardly see the pattern. Very elegant. The distressing was perfect.
Love it, beautiful. The white with the natural stained top made the piece gorgeous. Love how you brought out the details. I’d add crystal glass knobs to it, give it a little sparkle. Would you eventually do the top of the hutch and put it on tall free standing legs?
Thank you so much! No, we sold it as is. Unfortunately hutches don't sell as well as media cabinets down here.
I love your content...thank you! Just wondering do you add water when spraying the Sherwin Williams chalk paint? Also what type of needle do you use in your hvlp spray gun?
Thank u! Yes I add a bit of water to cover the top & that seems to be enough. I use the same needle that comes w the spray gun.
When I tried using the Watch Wipe On Poly topcoat and I found the “paint lines” never settles in! Any suggestions?
Painting the knobs in gold would have given a more high-end look.
Looks great. Do you list it as a dresser or sideboard? My husband and I flip furniture also. We had a piece similar to this and we kept the bottom for our dining room. With the top we are going to put feet on the bottom of it, remove the middle doors abd add bead board to the back and are selling it as a bookcase.
We listed as a buffet/media cabinet/dresser. Buyer is using it as a media cabinet. Hope that helps!
Did you added legs to this dresser?? Thank you
So beautiful!!
How can we know, when we need to use primer in a furniture. Thanks
When you clean it and you have reddish tannins in your water or a brown color that looks like it’s from the furniture & not bc it’s dirty, you’ll have to prime it. If it’s a lighter wood, like what we had once we sanded it & it has shown no signs of bleeding when cleaned, you should be just fine! Hope that helps!
Thanks a lot for your response🥰
I think I would have distressed the handles by hand for more control
Yep that’s true!
Quick question…you seemed apprehensive about using the oil based polyurethane…wouldn’t the oil based poly be more durable overall ?
They both have a certain amount of cure time & after that, they are both super durable. The oil based poly I had was a wipe on that I hadn’t tried before but I was a bit nervous that it would be streaky. It wasn’t at all! It self leveled as it dried. Thanks for watching!
Where do you sell your flips? Asking because I have redone several pieces for family and would like to get into it for profit. Thanks, Joe
Mainly on FBM
@@LemonstoLemonadeFurniture Thanks and keep up the great work. I really enjoy seeing you transform these pieces
You didn’t need to use primer?
You do not need primer for this paint ? Thank you
I had no tannins in the water or when I wiped/cleaned it off. It was a lighter wood underneath so that's usually a good sign that you can save that step. Thanks for watching!
@@LemonstoLemonadeFurniture thank you so much for your answer!! Love watching your videos
Those men just have to use something with a motor?
It was so plain. Sorry to have a negative comment. I was expecting something done to the inside. Most of the channels I watch would have fancied it up. They would have done that outside and in. I would never pay that much for this piece. Thank you for the video and allowing me to give my opinion. 😁😁
All good! Different strokes. I cringe at details inside. I have challenged us to do one with stencils or decoupage in the future just because it is so out of the box for us. Honestly we are minimalists in our home so I think it comes out in our aesthetic. I do try to play with color. But we have sold this one a few times over now so I stuck with basics. I really wanted to help my friend out with the proceeds sooner than later so we stuck with what would sell quickly. But I get it! You might like our next video airing on Sunday if you like details ;) Hope to see you there!
Glad to find your channel! Love the flip and the white. Did you detail paint with brush on top and sides of doors after spraying? Also I would like to try the sherwin Williams chalk style paint. I love that you used the knobs they are perfect.
Yes and yes! Love Sherwin Williams Chalk paint. Thanks for watching!
I love this piece,,she’s so feminine
The expression “up to speed” means that someone has knowledge or know-how about about something. I think you’re searching for the phrase “up to date.”
Thank you for the lesson.
Why would you waste time cleaning the top when you're sanding it down to bare wood?
Because if there is dirt, grease, oil etc on the piece you will sand it down into the wood and then when you stain it will bleed through it and show.
@@LemonstoLemonadeFurniture . Unless there's a pool of oil or anything in liquid form sitting on top when you start sanding it will turn into sanding dust before you get through the clear coat and stain. I've been doing wood work for almost 30 years as a hobby and supplemental income and I'm a carpenter by trade so I'm speaking from experience. I'm not trying to criticize you just pointing out a way to save time because time is money
