    Wow!!! I was so amazed at her transformation I ran to the other side of the house to show my husband (who honestly probably couldn't care any less 😂🙈).
    But this is such an inspiration for an old bookcase I have of similar era.

    I graduated high school in 1980, so the 80’s was my decade. That cabinet looked soooo familiar. What a transformation! I especially loved how the VHS drawer now holds liquor. Great job!

    You need to have your own show on PBS or HGTV! They don’t have enough programming for regular people who diy. Your skills and creativity are equal to your wit and humility. I love that you are willing to show the imperfections of being a diy enthusiast. It makes me feel like I too can be imperfect and still enjoy repurposing!

    This turned out lovely! I have a love/hate relationship with that 80's built stuff. On one hand it's usually pretty sturdy and solidly built(even the veneer and plywood and/or mdf core). On the other.. it can be so dang OOOGLY and weird and that was my childhood era! Fortunately it fills and paints well. lol

    How coincidental, I had a 2 piece set very similar to this one, its cousins, when I lived in the Bay Area in the early 80s. At the same time, I read The Hobbit for the first time, followed by the trilogy. It’s about time I read The Hobbit for my fourth time. Awesome work, your’s and Tolkien’s. Yay, You’re next video premieres later today but I still haven’t gone to bed yet, but excited to see what you post tomorrow.

So creepy, disturbing. Do you traffic humans also? I don’t even answer my door to solicitors I can see and talk to in person.

    I love that wallpaper and used it as a backdrop behind my stove and under my upper cabinets. It's a great funky look and matches my color scheme, which has mix and match funky dishes, fiesta ware etc.

    Great flip, great story-telling, great voice work! I have the two matching bookcases to your tv stand in my stash. You have inspired me with your great design. Loved your faux bois, too! Subscribed!

    Unbelievable production quality for a UA-cam video. The only problem I have with your videos is I have watched them all. Please keep it up 👍

    Just finding you and loving what you do. I watched this because I have a big 80's TV cabinet that I am thinking of doing something with. Getting some great ideas. Thanks!

    I thought "Oh I've got to see this train wreck! You just can't turn that into anything good." Boy was I wrong! The only thing I could after watching this (and also enjoying your sense of humour), was hit Subscribe!

    Haha that lock reminds my of the curtained section at Blockbuster when I was a kid, I always wanted to go back there and naturally, wasn't allowed. This brings me back

      Oh man - I'd forgotten about that!! I actually remember video stores pre Blockbuster. 😂

    I think you did an excellent job with filling that hole and mimicking oak. You definitely have an eye for color matching. I haven’t even gotten started with furniture flipping. But I’m pretty sure I wouldn’t have started with that set of colors. I watch a guy called dasher restoration. He actually starts with a base color then draws in the wood grain. It’s pretty cool.
    You Tube showed me your channel. First time viewer.

    This was a fantastic video.I am now on the hunt for a small piece to refurbish in that beautiful paint color.That Coconix kit is a great find.And the spray wax? I need that! Looks so much easier than the other types that I've used in the past.Looking forward to more of your videos.🙂
