That's awesome!! Thank you so much!!
When she said it's not up to her standard to sell.
Little did she know that a lot of people would die to have that in their home. It's a great makeover LOVED IT
I LOVE this transformation!!! The color and pulls are so good, and way to go building the base for the first time!
DIY wife bases are next level 👀
I love all your projects. God bless and keep up the beautiful work.
What a reveal! That dresser is crazy handsome! You took a big yawn piece of furniture and turned it into surprise party exciting. The deep rich green, the warmed honey tone of the base, combined with the copper jewelry transformed that bland piece into mid-century marvelous! Well done!
I’m floored by the effect that wax has on the oak! It makes the oak match the pulls, it perfectly sets off the green… Stunning.
Christina you didn't give yourself enough credit, that piece turned out beautiful.
I really loved the style of filming on this video. I also loved learning how to grain fill! What a great trick. The transformation was great and it is definitely a to a higher standard than you felt at the end. I hope you sell it for a nice profit.
Not perfect? Looks pretty dang good to me! This is one of my favorite transformations I've seen you do! Love that you stepped outside the box and thank you for always encouraging us furniture artists to do the same! Love love love!
I've loved the look of that base ever since I saw Andrea do it on her channel. I want to try it, but that would involve buying a miter saw, kreg jig, clamps, etc. lol
This is my favorite piece yet!!! I audibly gasped when I saw it at the end! I hope you sold this piece because it is so special!
You don’t need to do pilot holes, but definitely clamp the pieces together (highly recommend the right angle ones to keep it square!). For added strength you can also add wood glue between the two pieces. 💙
Christina,it always shocks me how the transformation occurs, i know it’s not as quick and easy as the videos show,, but its amazing and it does not matter how many of your videos i have watched, i am still blown away each time 👏👏👏
Big Mama's Butta? Exactly what l need to nourish and restore the wood beams in my home. Ty for all the tips using Dixie Bell's products and brushes - that wax brush is mine! As a former filmmaker, l really appreciated the innovative camera angles and editing. As a woman, loved you at the helm of the power tools. Well done you! 💖
I have a matching chest of drawers and never in a million years thought you could modernize the rounded oak edges. Gorgeous!!
Thank you Christina for sharing in your DIY Wife Challenge with this piece. The Collard Greens DIxie Belle Colour is superb and so pleased I have discovered this as I have the perfect piece to paint with it for my very first Chalk Paint project. It turned out beautifully with the hardware and red oak legs. Full marks and a tiger stamp for you for creating this lovely makeover! Also thanks to you and Dixie Belle Paints for offering another competition for us furniture and chalk paint lovers! :::SmileS::: Mary-Kate :-)
WOW! That green is amazing! Paired with the wood legs, it make that dresser very snazzy looking. I love making over wood furniture, but it wasn't until you ladies started your lessons on better ways to do things that I really got excited. Thanks to you and all your fellow ladies for the excellent tutorials.
She's not perfect, she's exquisite! Love the look. Really nice job 😃🌠
This turned out amazing!! I love that green colour, and the contrast with the natural wood legs and the gold hardware looks so good!
I only recently started furniture flipping as a side hustle while being a stay at home mom but building a base is a great idea to transform a piece!
I’ve never seen someone use Big Mamas Butta as a topcoat/wax alternative, super interesting! It gave it a lovely satin glow. Love the pulls that you chose, it ties the base in perfectly and I think the whole thing looks sleek and modern. Yay for stepping out of comfort zones!
I have loved her base from the first time I saw it. Will I try it? Yes...my husband will try it 😉 while I’m painting a piece. Hee hee.
I appreciate your high standards, but the whole makeover was fabulous. From the new base to the color to the hardware. Thank you for being brave enough to share your insecurities with us and inspiring us to work outside our comfort zones.
I’ve watched this video a few times now (it pops up in my feed every so often) catch something new to try each time. The big take away this time (besides this stunning transformation) is the filling the wood grain AND using Dixie Mud to do it! I’ve seen a few people do this and can never remember how, so I’m saving this video. I have a solid oak hutch to paint and the big reason I haven’t done it yet is the water based paint (using all Dixie Belle) “raising the grain”. So thank you for this tip/technique (and the many others in this video).💜
You rock, as per usual--I wish I had more room in my house to keep the stuff you've taught me how to do. I want to replace everything I own with re-born MCM pieces! :)
❤️
Christina, You did an awesome job on the whole piece. The base turned out great!👍
Love watching the ladies use power tools for these makeovers, gives me confidence. And my daughter and I would really like to try Dixie Belle products, she started making over furniture to resell about a year ago, keep the videos coming!
Stunning piece. And, she is perfect. Well done, Christina.
Never thought to water down Dixie mud for application. Brilliant.
I’m glad someone who is a professional is nervous to try new tools too...I would love to try and make this base too!
Fantastic job! I love how an out of date 80s piece can look so modern and awesome!
Pat yourself on the back Christina! AA for guts and AAA for the impressive end product.
Great transformation! The color is beautiful and the legs give it that modern look.
I have to try that Big Mama’s Butta! The base looks amazing. Great job.
Wow, a woodworker now, too! That transformation was great! Gotta get me some of that butta!
Loads of prep and building it better but, Soo worth it. Gorgeous makeover Christina! I've see someone else try this tutorial and it looks pretty straight forward. I think if I find the right piece I would totally try it too. Beautiful color!
Wow Christina I just ❤️❤️ the Transformation ! You Did a BRILLIANT Job 😜👍 You Rock girl
Truly beautiful transformation! Love the finishes you chose - especially the handles. 🏆😊
Painting DB Mud to smooth wood grain?!? What an ingenious idea! 💡
Because I’m all about that base, ‘bout that base, base, base, base.
We could never get tired of watching you !!! Just beautiful 😍
One of the best makeovers I’ve ever seen ! I’d have a hard time selling it!
Came out amazing! Sell that and don't go low! It's beautiful.
Christina, you took that tired and abused ‘ol piece of furniture and made it glamorous! The height alone really gives it a presence.
Unbelievable transformation. Absolutely beautiful!!
WOW.....a BEAUTIFUL PIECE! I'm sure it will sell. I'm going to try using my husbands tools too. This was a great video🥰
Your piece turned out nice. But the DIY Wife is still the creative furniture makeover Queen.
Yes she is!
So beautiful, as all of your pieces are. Using the mud to fill the grain and then Big Mama’s Butta to finish were great tips. Just finished a couple of nightstands and will use BMB to finish. Can’t wait to try it.
Christina this looks a million dollars, don’t be so hard on yourself. I would love to have this or any of your pieces in my home. I have almost been binge watching your videos, your work is amazing. I love how the wax brings out the colour in the red oak it matches your drawer hardware perfectly.
This is perfect! I've got a *very* short but long bookcase that my Mom made years ago and I've been trying to figure out how to raise it up to make it more practical. Another project for my 'to do' list!
Me too! Hope yours goes well!
Thank you for all the great inspo, and for being honest about how the piece turned out.
Christina what an awesome job! I love that color of green and the platform looks so good and lets not forget those pulls.
Yup, you're def being too hard on yourself. this came out beautiful. I think it would look great in a navy color as well.
I love the technique with the Dixie Mud and that bottom and that color! Oh my you did a nice job!!!!!
Your transformation of this piece is A-MAZING! The color is beautiful, but I think anything green is perfect.👌 You should be proud. Enjoy your life, Cheryl
🤩🤩🤩so gorgeous! Love the handle choice! Paint color beautiful. And that base! Thanks for making it real!
Sooo beautiful. Color is superb and base looks amazing. GIRL POWER!
The painted mud is a feast to the eye☺
I thought I wouldn't like the dull green paint, but I do, I love it!
Well you did an amazing job! Cool trick using water down Dixie mud to fill the grain.
Wow! What a transformation! It's beautiful.
I am obsessed with that paint color. 🥰
Awesome transformation! Color is great & love the drawer pulls. As always great inspiration you never disappoint. Thanks for sharing all your ups & downs...and keeping it real! Definitely want to try Dixie Belle's Big Momma's Butta someday the orange sounds amazing!
I think you did a great job, especially being the first time. And yes, clamps will be your best friend in screwing the pieces together when using pocket holes.
Wow! Great transformation. Andrea is pretty awesome. 😊
Wow! That color is phenomenal! 😍😍😍
It's beautiful! The color and the metal pulls are fantastic together! Love it!
I love the way the Dixie Belle looked on the piece. It turned out really well! Love it!
I love everything about this transformation, the color, the base, the pulls. Just beautiful.
Wow! What a transformation! It is gorgeous!
What a,great transformation. The new base looks great and so do the drawer pulls
She is gorgeous. Thanks for a real time oops and repairs. Thanks for sharing
Good job with the new base! Dresser looks beautiful! ❤️🌺
Wow!!! Lovely transformation!!
I love this transformation! Christina, every time I watch your videos I learn something new. Thank you for sharing all your knowledge and tips. This piece looks amazing!
Love the Dixie Mud wood grain filler tip!
WOW! What a BEAUTIFUL piece!! Great job! 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
I don't think I'm quite ready to build that base. Nor do I have the tools to do it! That color isn't something I thought I would like, but...WOW! I really do like it a lot!!
Yeah, it's awesome! Beautiful!
GURLLLLLL what are you talking about !!! cause this pc is AMAZINGGGGGG!! NOT UP TO YOUR STANDARDS??? WHAT?? JUST AMAZING...I HAVE NO MORE WORDS...LOL
Wow! Legs and me pulls made it cross decades! 😍 I'm learning so much from these tutorials and love seeing the transformations! Thank you.
Beautiful! Thank you for being so honest in what you have learned from while doing this piece!
Absolutely gorgeous
You knocked it out of the park!! 👍 I LOVE this look. I’m going to watch the YT tutorial you mentioned to get more info.
We are our own worst critics, it looks great!! I've had a kreg jig sitting unopened in my garage for over a year. I think I have the perfect piece I am going to try this on!
Absolutely beautiful! For someone who can do anything, you should never doubt yourself.
What a transformation! It is beautiful!
Big fan. Hoping for a d belle shopping spree. See what you started by continuing.
Love it! What a difference!
Nice transformation! Love the color and hardware.
Wow Christina, you did a great job on the build. I love how you clamped your wood before cutting at your miter saw so you could keep your free hand by your side, brilliant! I didn't know about doing the grain fill with a thin mud. Today I learned I can do the base build too, just need more Kreg screws. Great job today, it was fun seeing you so excited!!🌷
This makeover turned out beautifully! The base looked amazing and I love that green color.
Wow! I’m so impressed. You are very brave to tackle something new and outside your comfort zone. I’m just starting out and you have inspired me. Thank you.
Great information on watering down the Dixie Mud to fill in the wood. Never knew that could be done. This piece turned out amazing and I love the addition to the bottom. The natural color on the bottom looks great. This definitely was a huge change in a not so pretty piece of furniture to a modern work of art. Thanks for a great video !!
I told you, you’ve got this! Turned out great. Thank you for the mention! ❤️❤️❤️
Love the drawer pulls!
Wow Christina you nailed it!
ABSOLUTELY STUNNING!!! Amazing beyond belief!
Very nice transformation of that piece!
Omg Christina i love it. Amazing job 💐🌸🌷
Hi Christina! I've always shied (RAN) away from green paint, but your dresser looks so good that I'm tempted to try it on a small project. Thanks for your inspiration!
