LOVE - love - love real milk paint. Been using it for years. Such good coverage.
yes! this is great!
Retired art teacher here. To keep glue bottles from clogging, always dry off the nozzle and close it tight. Never stick anything into the tip. If it gets clogged soak the cover in hot water and scrape the inside with a compass point (it’s small enough not to stretch out the tip). This probably won’t work with Titebond 3 or other waterproof glue.
For your glue, we have had success storing wood glue upside down. The air goes to the bottom of the bottle and the tip stays wet. Just make sure the bottle gets closed before it goes upside down. Sometimes we cover the tip with aluminium foil just in case they may drip. Also, keep your tips when you recycle the empties so you can use them on future clogged bottles, while soaking a clogged tip in hot water. Good luck!
Thank you for being so authentic and real.
The waterfall dressers were built in the '30s. Love love love what you did!!!
Buy some veneer and replace the little areas. I’ve seen other flippers cut out and gluing new pieces with great results. You should try it, I’m sure YOU can do it!👍🥰
I have that almost exact dresser. It origanlly had a matching head and foot board for a bed along with a vanity. I gave the vanity , foot and head board to a friend and kept the dresser. This bedroom set belonged to my husbands Grandma, who if she was still living would be about 110! The set is probably from the 1940. I love the deep drawers on this dresser, but like yours was, needs some love. Thanks for showing me how to bring it back to life.
i have the dresser and vanity
got a quote of 3000$ to refinish. nope
I inherited the complete set from my sister a few months ago when she retired and moved to Florida. The dresser, head board and vanity with mirror. I have all three pieces and they are in great condition.
Lauren, this is beautiful! I like your choices with the paint, the black border in the back, and the gilding wax on the hardware! The wood grain is gorgeous!! You probably could go higher than $350. This is a classic piece - sort of reminds me of an elegantly dressed man or woman.
I agree. I think that one could definitely be valued higher
I’ve worked on a few old pieces that needed veneer. It’s not Real hard, but you have to be patient & precise.
This Chest of Drawers turned out Great! 👍🏼 I just wish you wouldn’t have painted the small rows of the decorative veneer. It would have added another dimension with just hemp oil.
I think on the back of the bottle it will recommend you take the clear tip off and clean the glue out before storing it again. It works for me everytime. Only takes a few seconds.
I don’t like the waterfall dressers, but you made this look beautiful❣️ I love it❣️ You have such vision & skill.
These are my favorite dressers to work on because they are so lightweight. Plus, waterfall dressers are just so chic!
OMG! That’s my dresser!
Hit thumbs up before even watching 😆 I know it's going to be gooooood!
You do such marvelous work...very creative, too! i'm binge-watching your channel. This Art Deco piece looks fantastic!
You should charge more! I think $500 or $600 would be a good price for this classic piece!
I close mine with blue tac on top of the lid and then just peel it off when I need it!
Next time you come across a dent or scratch try steaming it out. Followed by a light sand. The steam might just help the wood fibers expand again.
Wow! Look at that wood grain INSIDE the dresser, on the inside left wall! It's gorgeous!
I agree completely, this dresser is gorgeous. appears as though you are elevating to a new level in upcycling aka, creative reuse.
My very favorite piece.
This is a 1930s piece with bakelite handles. I have one exactly like it. It breaks my heart when someone paints instead of restores these beautiful vintage pieces. 😢
Absolutely love this! I have a matching wardrobe, vanity etc that belonged to my grandparents. I too used a Annie Sloan black on the sides & trim leaving the wood like you have on the wardrobe. That’s the only piece I’ve tackled & plan on finishing the rest this spring.
Girl, seeing how far you’ve come since the beginning has been so awesome. Look how great your pieces are! You should be so proud. I think you could’ve posted that for much more…just sayin😉 I loved the final look…perfection!
You should try to learn veneer repair. You can also use an iron and wet cloth to pull light dents and scratches back to the surface.
Turned out really pretty
Not a fan of waterfall furniture but this chest of drawers looks really good.💕💕🤗🤗😃
My husband puts a nail in the tip of caulk for storage. Maybe that will work with storing wood glue.
You had me at art deco waterfall!! Ha ha
Put a tack or nail in the top of the glue nozzle ! It works
It looks pretty good... Possibly better (to me) than if you left more wood showing... However, I think it's time for FFT to start experimenting with a little veneer repair ;) So you won't be so stressed out or disappointed when you come across situations like this.
thank you! I dont really have a desire for the veneer repair skills just yet. maybe some day! ☺️
I love it.
Hulda from Puerto Rico 🎉Lots of Blessings. Merry Christmas
I love that you retained the wood finish on the top and one drawer. I think staining the drawer the same color as the top would have been nicer. Love the waterfall pieces.
Restoring a piece is 100 times more difficult than painting! I love everything you did on this piece! It's GORGEOUS! You brought it back to life and gave it another 50 years of life! I totally agree with your decision to leave the scratch on the top... it adds character to a vintage piece! Thanks so much for sharing. I enjoy so much these daily makeovers and your Christmas sweaters are awesome.
thank you (: I agree!
Although I love the milk paint result and the beautifull satin black finish after the hemp oil treatment, this dresser was worth saving in its original shape just with small veneer pieces replacement. You could try to damp and steam the scratch with iron, sometimes it helps to raise the dent.
Love it, it turned out beautiful. Kudos!
That chest of drawers is killer! Great job!
The glue bottles are difficult. I clean off the tip, put the top on it, then store it upside down, in a glass or something, so the bottle stays upright. The scratch on the top, you could try a wet cloth and iron, to try and lift it up a bit. Not sure if it was like “dented,” but this technique will swell the wood fibers and lift it up. Might not get it all out, but make it less noticeable.
Hi Lauren to keep your glue from drying out clean it off really well then dip it in Vaseline
Lauren! This piece turned out awesome! It is just lovely! Nice job, thank you!
I use medicine syringes when I put on wood glue. I’m always afraid when I have to squeeze the bottle really hard it’ll bust on me.
It is exactly like what was in my parents bedroom in the 40s and 50s!
My family owned a dresser just like this one, purchased ìn the late 40s. They also had a vanity in the same style😂
OUTSTANDING !!!!!!!! I LOVE THE BLACK !!!! Good job
It looks awesome ❤❤❤. Me at 70 years am starting my furniture flipping, jumping with both feet…. But I have you with me with all your great videos, And there is no doubt in my mind I am going to succeed.. You are a great inspiration❤❤❤
You can do it! That is awesome!
It is gorgeous Lauren! Love the 2 tone look! 🥰🥰🥰
Oh My Gosh! I had this same old dresser for countless years, way back when.. I paid $10 for it at a thrift store and I loved the look of it. It also looked bad just like yours did lol! I kept it clean but it always looked bad.. good for you my dear! From an old lady born in the early 1950s!!
Thank you for leaving that small scratch.
I have an exact copy of this dresser in my garage, picked it up last week. Thanks to you I now have an idea of what design to refinish it into.
It's beautiful! And it still looks old, in the best way.
Looks amazing! Thanks for sharing this! 💯 ❣️
Beautiful! We had a chest of drawers just like that many years ago. Not sure what ever happened to it.
invest in some furniture veneer and repair. You need to aim higher in your repairs. It will elevate your following. Repair your veneer where missing instead of covering with paint. I hope this helps. This is an aide from LOVE!!! Please consider watching " John's Repair Furniture" from Canada. She taught me so much. Lesterle
Totally agree! You need to start elevating your knowledge. Don’t just paint everything. Never paint art deco. There were more 😊parts of that dresser you could have left raw wood.
Watch the UA-cam show Transcend Furniture Gallery. She is brilliant. You can be too, you’ve got the drive!
my desire is in painting furniture not restoring. I enjoy doing what I can with furniture paint and leaving some wood elements when I can 😊
This is just a suggestion. Add another content to your channel. This is maybe what we might want to see@@FurnitureFlippingTeacher
@@FurnitureFlippingTeacher I’ve been also thinking that you might benefit from a work table now that you have the room. I hate seeing you do everything on the floor. It can’t be good for your back.
I currently have that dresser! I bought it used 43 yrs ago for $75.00. I used it with an antique bedroom set that I sold years ago. The antique headboard footboard and keyed mirror dresser Went well with the dresser. We refinished the headboard and the keyed mirror and dresser. It was green, and we brought it back to the wood. We put a clear coat over and you could set water. You could set a hot coffee cup on it. And it didn't damage at all the over 40 years that I had it. It was a set that I bought with my wedding money 45 years ago. I sold the set to a had been wanting. Something like that and had just come out of a hard situation. We sold a tour for a really cheap price. She cried .My son currently uses the dresser. When I bought the dresser many years ago I put a clear coat on it so it has withstood all these years. Yes the dresser is very very old, It was old when I bought mine. You gave The one you have such a beautiful transformation. I love it I couldn't believe how amazing it turned out what you did. But you always do great transformations with furniture.
That is stunning. I love the waterfall dressers so much and like that one so many of them are built in a very sturdy sustainable way, which is probably why they’re still working 130+ later. Whether you restore them or repaint them, they come out beautifully and they just never disappoint.
Thank you so much!
Beautiful work. Regarding some of the superficial dents and dings, have you tried steaming them out? It works really well, even on veneer.
When will you do a video of you organizing and tidying your work shop area? Seems like it's sort of chaotic back there. Would love to see you do a wall like you did in your garage. Shelving and organizing.
Very soon 🤗
I had a dresser just like that from my great grandma. She also gave me the matching headboard and vanity table.
Love how this turned out! I think you could be charging a lot more for your furniture. Like 300 to 400 more. Enjoy your utubes and work ethic. ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️🕊️✌️😀😃😄😁🤗
Loving how that turned out. My Aunt had a dresser like that so I would say its from the 30's - 40's area. Turned out beautiful!
Blessings

I love it!!! ❤
Lauren, it is lovely! 👍💖
Very beautiful renovation ❤
omg.... one of the best pieces you have done. bravo!
TURNED OUT BEAUTIFUL, LAUREN
I sometimes use wood glue for its strength in my paper crafts. When bottle tips get hardened glue in them, you can soak in 90 % alcohol like hand sanitizer or bathroom alcohol and it softens it up enough to poke it back out of there. I often put masking tape over my bottle top to keep air out of the tip. I can get that off pretty well. Some people use press and seal.
Gorgeous
Omgoodness? So beautiful ❤️
Love it😊
I thoroughly enjoyed this transformation!
Well done!
Beautiful!❤️
One of your best
amazing how it turned out.
So good 👍
Looks so good!!
I really like that one
Fantastic Job!!!
use a piece of painters-tape instead of the original cap to close off the tip of the glue-bottle
Looks great! Im inspired to work on an art deco piece I’ve had in my stash for a long time.
Fabulous
It's dope!!
OH Lauren! Thank you for keeping some of the original wood veneer. Yes, keeping a few marks preserves the Piece’s history. This piece matches my 1944 Lane Cedar Hope Chest’s style and veneer! You did an amazing job! The Real Milk Paint Co sounds like a wonderful company and I love that it has natural ingredients! B~}
