    I really do like a lot of your stuff, but I feel like you could have used a crappy dresser instead of this pretty mid century one. It was kind of heartbreaking to see it pulled apart like that. I’m not hating, I love most of your pieces. You are so talented.

      This was water damaged, had broken legs that needed repaired, handles were cracked and needed removed and tons of chips and scratched down to the particleboard. I only upcycle and flip damaged pieces, I would never touch a perfectly good mcm piece.

    There are many brilliant mid-century pieces which should be restored rather than completely changed, however, that’s up to the owner. Knowing styles and periods would help people such as this young lady determine what to create and what to bring back. Unfortunately, many of these UA-camrs are too young to appreciate style. There are plenty of great ideas.

    That dresser was a classic from that period, I wish u you'd just fixed the original drawer handles and refinished it. However, since you have already redone this dresser, I don't think the 2 drawers with bamboo sticks match the color of the paint. A wash of the paint over the bamboo sticks would help it match better. Just my thoughts.

    I actually love this. I see a bunch of these kinds of flips in my feed but this is the first one I’ve been genuinely fond of in the end. I like that she sanded the sticks down to size after putting them on (the amount of time I see flips using sticks like that where they are all slightly off it annoying but not this). Don’t really understand why people be hating it. Also finally a piece that isn’t freaking cream / white.

    I'm thinking I'd have liked it better is all the drawers had been like the top two. Some will find in really great for their personal style, and love the bamboo and stain finish though. Thanks for sharing.

    You're honestly one of the nicest content creators I've stumbled upon. You answer all comments, even rude or hateful ones, with grace and kindness. It must be hard, but I'm happy you're able to be positive among all these negativity
