Holy cow I don't think I've ever seen someone do a curved base before. You blew my mind. You work so hard on your projects! I am speechless. Thank you for saving this ugly duckling and doing all that work in this heat. How do you do it!?!?!
I’m so glad you enjoyed it this was so much fun to be a part of. Doing stuff like this is like my stress relief it really doesn’t feel like work. Thank you my friend.
Because you are the winner, you should update the title of this video as the "The Winner." Your work is so amazing. People need to know.
As if the legs you made weren't incredibly amazing! Then you took what you saw as flaws to a complete other level! A level of perfection & so much imagination & creativity! A amazing piece of art work you created there!
I can see why Cory chose you as the winner. But geeze so many talented ppl. & beautiful pieces you all created! Congratulations on the win! It's truly a beautiful piece!
❤ I'm at a loss for words, I have been watching the flips all day , Your artistry is unmatched , I thought my favorite flipper did the greatest job. But sitting here at 12.30 AM If your not declared the winner I would be shocked , Magnificent job !!! You have a new subscriber , looking forward too seeing more of your flips .
Thank you I’m blushing ☺️ at your kind words! Welcome aboard and thanks for subscribing, I love your profile name! Fun fact several parts of that series was filmed right at my workplace.
Your comment made me subscribe before seeing the video!
Oh my goodness. You're a wonderful artist! This piece is SO INTERESTING AND BEAUTIFUL
This is a woodworking/painting/furniture flip of epic proportions! Mel, you work full time in a hard job and then get home and do this?!? Amazing. You should be very proud of yourself. 👏👏💕
You are a gem 💎 Lolly thank you. I totally love it but times always an issue.
This is the best base/leg instructional video i have seen to-date!! The work that went into this piece is amazing!! Although Boho is not favored in my area, this is a phenomenal piece!! And thanks for the Jassco stripper recommendation!! Great job !!
Velma,
Thank you very much I’m glad you found value in this video. FYI I have no affiliation with any products I only use use what I like and what works for me all bought with my own money. Honesty is very important to me on my channel.
Can I just say, "WOWZA!!!" Talk about inspiring. You went beyond the average flipping by painting that many do and really customized/pimped out this piece. I hit your subscribe button right away because you made me realize that I should not worry so much about others and use my artistic flair to be different. It pays off as you show in this amazing transformation.
wow thank you 😊
yes maam let your creative side run wild!
The art, the legs and the vision. Your work is incredibly beautiful. This is a swan!
Melanie~You did an absolutely gorgeous job on that 70s dresser! You certainly deserved to be the winner of this year's Ugly Duckling Contest! Bravo!! I thoroughly enjoyed watching many of the artists participating and while everyone was a joy to watch, you by hands down achieved what the Hostess wanted to accomplish...plus sharing the numerous creations and artistic abilities of all those who entered the contest. Loved watching your creativity soar!! Blessings! 🙂
Looks like our beautiful New Mexico Sunsets! I love how the lines of the legs are incorporated into the movement of the design. Very Pretty!
I’ve watched quite a few of these challenges and you went above and beyond. I hope Cory picks yours to win. I couldn’t sell it if I’d put so much work into it. Well done !! Now subscribed 😊
Thank you so much 😊!
Funny thing is I might actually keep it because my Pandy puppy seems to think it’s a great place to nap under lol.
@@coloredcaboosecreations Pandy has really good taste.
This is a winning piece! I was floored with your attention to detail. You showcased your talent on so many levels. I have so many new ideas for future projects thanks to your detailed explanation along the way. I appreciate this level of effort. Thank you for sharing.

Thank you so much Barry! I've been wanting to attempt these legs for a long while. although I do love painting I actually enjoy building and refinishing much more. started doing it when we bought our first home and I wanted to furnish with vintage mcm furniture but couldn't afford pristine ones so I thrifted and learned to refinish my own.
@@coloredcaboosecreations The pieces are special when you take the time to refinish them yourself. Amazing work!
I am amazed by this transformation, and your love of the little router has made my Christmas wish list longer. Thank you for making those beautiful legs rather than just buying new ones. Seeing the process to put them together was enlightening, and gave me a new appreciation for a different wood: fir…so nice to see something different than oak, walnut, or pine!
So glad you enjoyed it thank you for watching and thank you for your kind words. yes the router is fun hope you get your wish
Melanie, so OUTSTANDING! The other artists did wonderful work too, but this went from almost garbage to an anthropology piece. 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
I don’t know if I could bear to sell it.💜
I’ve made my through half of the playlist and you freaking nailed it!!! You should definitely take home the GOLD medal!!!!!!!
Wow, thank you!
The music, the artistic painting, the strong, slender and graceful legs. It's perfect.
First time watching you. I was moved to tears. Beautiful and spiritual. God bless your hands!
Thank you very much🙏
I am absolutely obsessed with this!!! You’re so unbelievably talented. I checked out your IG page as well and you do amazing work! Love the legs as well!!
Ok I’m blushing 😊 you did lol. Thank you so much coming from an amazing artist that means a lot!
Dang girl!!! That is an amazing transformation! For corn sake! As soon as you were done, I knew that you had to be the winner of the challenge.
You are so talented ! I am a child of the 70's but don't like most of the 70's. You dresser is the exception. You pulled out what little I liked about that era and gave me a good memory. Beautiful and thank you!
Wow thank you so much 😊!!
I often say I wish I had been apart of the 70’s but alas I was shy a decade lol. My friend let me know today that bell bottoms are officially trending I was tickled!
@@coloredcaboosecreations i reluctantly admit there were some good things. There was a spirit of hope amidst the prophets of doom and destruction. There were more people back then who knew and remembered that our ONLY Hope is in faith in the LORD JESUS. I wish you success in your business and peace with the LORD of the Bible.
I'm so glad you won, this is beautiful.
From some who was age 10-20 in the 1970s, you captured the time period perfectly. You are an artiste 👩🎨
Thank you 😊
First time watching your channel. This was not a furniture flip. This was a transformation into a work of art!
Awe thank you kindly ☺️
The two woods match brilliantly
You completely revamped this. I've never seen this done before. I have watched countless videos and for you to come up with something so unique my hat is off and gone to Africa for your amazing piece.
Thank you 😊
this is the winner....those feet are a work of art, and painting it showcased them much better. first time viewer now new subbie, girl, hope you use those legs again on another piece.
Those legs! That paint job! This piece is incredible!!
Absolutely the best I have seen. Those legs are so beautiful. Great painting.
No words. Beautiful. You’ve won the challenge 😀
That is the most gorgeous piece of furniture I believe I have ever seen!!
Awwww you did a wonderful magnificent job! I love the effect of leaving patches of stained wood on the front as part of the design. Beautiful!
Superb transformation! Colour combination is perfect and your execution of the legs, second to none! Fantastic!
Thanks 💚
Those legs are everything. What a beautiful piece. This is number one for me 👍
Thanks 😊
This has to be the most calming piece I have seen. That’s a piece of art. Great work. For sure subscribed.

For the legs alone wow but everything else…amazing ❤
I knew something good was coming our way Mel... but this was a real treat to watch. I'd have that piece in my house in a heartbeat. ❤
Marguerita thank you so much for being supportive for so long I greatly appreciate you 🤗!
I’m glad I didn’t disappoint
Wow….that is amazing….you have such talent. That base absolutely belongs to that piece. You did great!!!
Thank you Mary 🌼
Wow. Holy ducklings that is stunning.
I’m amazed, really, at what you did here. So beautiful!!! 🥰
Wow, that is so cool, love it.. And I LOVE that you leave some of the wood grain showing, which enhances the texture and beauty of the piece.
THOSE legs are beautiful; nice work, with basic tools even!
Thank you 😊
The dream is to one day have a proper shop but until thenI use what I got.
I would very much be interested in a leg video. So many pieces of furniture are enhanced by adding any type of leg elevation. I have been enjoying the ugly duckling challenge. Even though everyone has been my favorite I do believe your leading the pack. Good luck!
WOW!!!! The legs alone amazed me. When you added the paint, it totally blew me away. LOVE it!!
Awe thanks 😊
