- The power is out! A storm of epic proportions has hit California which means my power tools are useless. Thank goodness there's enough juice in the generator to keep my laptop charged, because I've got a beautiful Fable to tell you...come with me as I recreate an abandoned Lane Cedar Chest, and share a sliver of a Family Fable as we "rough it" without power.

The red is so bold! And beautiful! And fun. As far as I am concerned, no further embellishments needed.
Great feedback, thanks so much! 🍭😊💗
Less is more, it's beautiful just the way it is! Love what you do! Enjoy watching you weave your tale of furniture rebirth!
Thanks so much! That's always how I tend to think too. 🍭😊💗
I like it how it is.
What a fun and fancy chest! I will be very interested to see how it sells. I love that you are not afraid of taking a furniture piece in a daring and bold direction !
Thanks so much! I'll keep you updated! 🍭😊💗
I personally think it is perfect as is. Love the rope "framing" really does add to the bakery feeling of the decoupage. Amazeballs as always Andy!
Thank you so much! 🍭😊💗
Andy, thank you for sharing your adventures with me. Not being a creative soul, it takes me a while to understand your vision. But, dear Andy, I trust you implicitly! You always follow your heart, so that is what you must do with this confection. Who am I to give YOU creative advice. Trust your heart, dear one. Also thank your family members for their cameos. Very generous of you all to invite me along..
Oh wow, so nice to read this, thank you so much! 👩🍳🧁🍭🍩💗
Sweet piece, no further embellishments needed! Reminds me of a Parisian cafe on a rainy spring day!
Oh, I love that! Thanks so much, Stefanie! 👩🍳🥮🧁🍭💗
Adorable!! I love the way you did the trim with the light metallic on every other twist! You are so darn creative!!!😍
Thank you so much! 🍭😊💗
Love it! The color really pops and gives it joyful life, along with the decoupage. Your creative eye brought this worn out plain jane to an amazing whimsical fun piece. Beautifully done and I enjoyed watching you transform another piece into something worthy of saving.
Thank you so much! So great to hear this. ❤️
It is PERFECT just the way it is. Thank you for sharing your work.
Thanks so much, my pleasure! 👩🍳🧁🍭🍩💗
I never thought it would as great as it did. It is beautiful, thank for teaching me not to judge, Until a piece is finished,
You’re so welcome, thank you! 😊♥️
I think it’s fine as it is. It’s very cheerful!
It is truly a bold piece, and being so, I say go for it with adding moulds! As always, I love your work. 😊
Thank you, great to hear the! 👩🍳🥮🧁🍭💗
It’s beautiful just the way it is. I love the color and whimsy and I wouldn’t change a thing! ❤️❤️❤️
Yay, thanks so much! 👩🍳🧁🍭🍩💗
You are without a doubt my favorite of all to watch with your makeovers. Along with your skits and Biff!
The chest is perfect as is. Less is more. So bold and creative👏👏👏
Many thanks!! ♥️
I Love how it is ❤The paper is quite busy and I think the mouldings would make too busy!! Loved the trim and coloring of them. Ted is a fav color too. ❤
Ok, great feedback - thanks so much! ♥️
I haven’t watched but part of your intro and I had to stop to comment! You and your family look absolutely amazing! So fun, creative and beautiful to see how your family lends a hand. I am a new sub and I am amazed at how creative you are not only with your furniture but, your personality shines through your videos. You are a true artist at not just repurposed/flipped furniture but, your intro, the way you explain the process and just everything about your channel! I cannot find the words to express just how amazed I am and how much I appreciate your hard work and dedication! Now, back to the video so I can be inspired some more!
WOW, means so much to hear this, thank you so so much!!! I'm thrilled you are enjoying the fables, as I know my approach is a bit "different". 😅 Again, thank you!! ♥️♥️♥️
Another fun filled video - a day in the life of Andy😊
The chest has a real nostalgic look, circa 1950, thanks to the paper and color . I wouldn’t mess with that as all things mid - century seem to be hot right now🤷🏼♀️
🙏❣️
Yay, thanks so much, so glad you enjoyed! ♥️
NO ! It's perfect the way it is. Beautiful job.... as always.
OK, thank you! 😊♥️
Love it, it's perfect as is.. but a touch of gold wouldn't go amiss
Thanks so much, and I love that idea - was definitely toying with it myself...🍭😊💗
Wow Andi. I love it. Leave it alone. Walk away. It's perfect the way it is
Hooray!! Thanks so much! 👩🍳🧁🍭🍩♥️
I love it, it's beautiful. The red and embellishment is perfect.
Hooray, thanks so much! 🍭😊💗
Looking good! I learn something new and reinforce some things I already knew every time I watch your videos. Thank you!
That is such a fantastic thing to hear, thank you so much! ♥️
This was a lot of fun to watch....the weather drama, your fur family and human family making the best of it and of course, the furniture...which I'd already seen but it was fun to see it again. Leave it alone....it's fine just the way it is.
Thanks so much!! So glad you enjoyed all the story telling. 👩🍳🧁🍭🍩💗
I agree, less is more. That red color is wow enough for me. I love your videos!
Hooray!! Thanks so much . 👩🍳🧁🍭🍩💗
the little molds collect dust! I love them but love this piece the way it is!!!!!!!!!!
Oh, great point....thanks so much! 👩🍳🧁🍭🍩💗
I’m in bc Canada and we are in the midst of a drought in the middle of winter. We are afraid of wildfires come spring and summer. At this point we would all be so grateful for a month or two of torrential rain. I love that you just rolled with it (or floated through it )❤
Oh yes, I know all about drought, living in California. I hope you get some rain soon! So glad you enjoyed that part of the fable. 😊💗
Lots of prep work paid off. The red is fun. I would not add more to it with molding, but I like a simpler piece of furniture so that it does not take over a room. That is my thought, but you do have an artistic eye for creating furniture. Great job!
Thanks for the tips, that's great feedback. Thanks so much! 🍭😊💗
You are an inspiration for putting in the prep work and finding unique furniture upgrades. Love it! @@FurnitureFablesbyAndy
Love the red color! Boy that was a lot of prep work and it looks great! I think it looks good as it is. No need for anything extra on this one. 😊
Yay, thanks so much! 🍭♥️😊
It's beautiful as it is. It's awesome!
Thanks so much!! 🍭♥️😊
It's a tasty confection as is. Great job and keep on dreaming with paints and patterns.
Oh, love that - thank you so much!! ♥️♥️♥️
This piece is just perfect as it is. You are amazing!
Thank you so much! 😀🍭♥️
Oh wow! This piece came out adorable !
Thanks so much! 👩🍳🧁🍭🍩💗
As a bakery owner, I love this piece! I’m totally thinking of doing this with mine❤️
Oh cool!! Many thanks!
I really love the look it has now. I love reds but wouldn't have chosen that paper. But it works so well! Time for me to get more bold! Thank you for jolting me out of my rut. Love this chest!
Hooray, thanks so much! It's definitely fun to go outside one's comfort zone now and then. Have fun! 🍭♥️😊
Sure do LOVE this! Love the paper patterns and the RED! ❤💞
YAY! Thanks so much! ♥️
Oh my stars..........red! YAY!!!!!! My favorite color and it looks spectacular - I love it!!!!!!❣
Hooray!!! Many thanks! 👩🍳🧁🍭🍩♥️
Perfect for a sweet Valentine gift! 💝 🧁🍭🍪🍫🍬🍩💝
Indeed! Many thanks! 👩🍳🥮🧁🍭💗
Just leave it alone. It’s bold and beautiful as is. Love that red!
Hooray!! Many thanks. 👩🍳🧁🍭🍩♥️
Nah, less is more, so you're done! Thanks for sharing this! 💯 ❣️
Thanks so much!!
Yes, go for the extra bling! This exciting chest deserves it!!
Ooo, my first vote of yes! Thanks so much! 🍭😊💗
Yep, that would be me lol! Always have different ideas.. just thought the white fancies you thought of putting on set it off nice. I’m restoring my mother’s 100 year old mahogany ladies spinet Secretary desk and I’m a month into it, omg, the pressure to not do too much on it is horrendous! My hubby keeps saying less is more.. but I adore your red chest and you and your family of fables keep me laughing and so entertained!
Andy, it’s perfect just the way it is. Less is more!❤❤❤❤❤
Yay! Thanks so much! 👩🍳🧁🍭🍩💗
So sweet I think I got a cavity! The window trim even gives Off a DQ swirl soft serve effect
Yay, thanks so much! (and love me some soft serve!) 🍭♥️😊
"practically perfect in every way," just as it is. love the bear 💗
Awww, thanks so much! 🐻❄️
It’s perfect just the way it is! ❤❤❤
Ok, thanks! 👩🍳🧁🍭🍩💗
I love this chest! It is perfect. My husband and I also love red. We have a new room my husband just put on the house (TV area and dining room)- we painted three walls medium gray and the accent wall red (more of an orange red). Our grown kids don't like it but we LOVE it!
Thanks so much, and yay for red! 👩🍳🧁🍭🍩💗
Yes! Add more detail! It would look great!
Yay, thanks so much! 👩🍳🥮🧁🍭💗
She’s absolutely adorable as she is. But I’m guess those ideas are pretty darn good ones- they ALWAYS are Andi! So, I guess if she hasn’t sold by now- take her over the top and see! I think she is perfectly perfect now. But something tells me your extra flair will make her shine even more! (If that’s even possible!! ). Good luck deciding! Thanks for sharing with us. I was curious about the piece in the original video. It was super fun to see this side of the flip too. All the work is fun to watch. I actually enjoy prep work more than the painting. So I usually drag my pieces out for my own therapy! LOL.
Yay, thank you so much! So glad to hear you enjoy seeing the prep. Many many thanks! 🍭♥️😊
I have redesigned 4 trunks, vastly different, and they always sell right away! My most expensive sold for $1100. You will definitely get your asking price! ❤
Wow, that is such great feedback, thanks so much for sharing! 🍭😊💗
I love the way it looks! The only idea I had, would be a gold keyhole, but it might not fit anymore. Love your work!!❤
Thanks so much!! 👩🍳🧁🍭🍩♥️
I think your instinct is right: more “icing”! Not molds though (again, I see you trusting those instincts) but a judicious amount of scrolly or geometric stenciling. Would send this over the goalpost, imho-and enable you to carry the decoration onto the top, where it’s needed. I’m pretty sure there are “rope” stencils, so you could have coordinating frames on top without interfering with the flatness. My three cents’ worth.
Oooo, so many great ideas!! Many thanks...lots to consider now. 👩🍳🥮🧁🍭💗
Hi Andie x Wow..I wondered what the heck you were doing… and the Red !!… wonderful as always .. different… and looks great as it is ❤
Yay, thanks so much! 🍭😊💗
What a playful colorful piece
Thanks! 👩🍳🧁🍭🍩💗
As a fellow Norcal resident, I have to say, that storm was a doozy! We also lost power, almost 24 hrs, which was not fun. Glad you got through it! And of course, I love this chest! And while I would love it just as it is, I'm always a more is more person. So I think a little moulding here and there would also look great and add to the whimsy and fantasy. I'm sure someone will snap this up and love it.
Yay, thanks so much! And so glad your power is back - ours was out for 4 day, ugh. Woo-hoo - another vote for more! 👩🍳🧁🍭🍩💗
@@FurnitureFablesbyAndy Goodness, 4 days?!! You are a trooper!
I love the red that you chose and I think the chest is just fine exactly as you finished it.
Awesome! Many thanks! 👩🍳🧁🍭🍩♥️
OH How Sweet it is just the way it is!
Hooray! Many thanks! 👩🍳🧁🍭🍩💗
A wonderful job as always love the colors. Very good job bravo
Thank you so much! 👩🍳🧁🍭🍩💗
Well there you go! I have used that very red on two tables and a chair! Love it!🌹Beautiful as it is!
Oh, that's awesome! Many thanks! 👩🍳🧁🍭🍩♥️
Enjoy you and your projects. Happy❤ Valentines Day! 🙏🏻🐞
Thanks so much!! 👩🍳🧁🍭🍩♥️
Very whimsical!😊
Thanks so much! 👩🍳🥮🧁🍭💗
Agree less is more. I too love cherries. 🍒 I’m a sucker for Susan Branch style art. I was thinking that even if you had gone a more subtle direction with a neopilitan ice cream color scheme it would be beautiful too. Soft pink,brown & vanilla.Really loved the rope trim with the touches of gold. You did a beautiful job someone is very lucky if they can buy it from you 🍒 Happy St.Valentine’s Day!
Oh, beautiful ideas - love that Neapolitan ice cream color scheme! Many thanks. 🍭♥️😊
Chef's kiss perfection as is!
Huzzah!! Many thanks! 👩🍳🙏🤩
You’ve probably told us before, what makes the locks dangerous? Love all your pieces. Even if some wouldn’t fit into my home, I’m always amazed by your creativity and new life you breathe into them! ❤️
Many thanks! Those locks have been recalled - it's possible for a person (child) to become trapped inside a trunk. Thanks again! 👩🍳🧁🍭🍩💗
14 children died when they became trapped in trunks because they can’t be opened from inside. If you have a Lane trunk, you can contact the company for a safer replacement lock, or replace it with a safety lock from a hardware store.
@@sharilambeth9062Lane will replace a lock for that aged piece? I have one with the same lock
Hey Andy, the trunk is fabulous… my take in it would be to switch the molding for a narrower option maybe more “leafy” or “flowery” which then would work well with the moldings you made and didn’t use… Just because you asked!!! Wouldn’t presume to question your creativity and taste!!! Thanks for your videos- I enjoy them immensely!!!
Great feedback, thanks so much!
Andy, as I said in a comment on your holiday special, this piece is MUSEUM QUALITY! I love it exactly as it is now. I was surprised in the holiday video that such a magnificent makeover was a plot element and not the star of the show, so I'm happy this episode gave it the lead. Kinda like "Rhoda".
OMG...I love that!! 😂♥️ I remember that comment...I think I always will. I'm so glad you enjoyed seeing the full, detailed story - thank you so very very much! 👩🍳🧁🍭🍩💗
I absolutely love how this turned out ❤❤
Yay!! Thanks so much! 👩🍳🧁🍭🍩💗
@@FurnitureFablesbyAndy 💜
So sweet! No on the sprinkles, though!
And glad y'all are okay!
Ok, thanks, and many thanks re the storm! 🍭♥️😊☔️
More is more with a piece like this. Ive seen ginger bread cookie molds somewhere, and there's tuns of candy molds, and you could add a cushion with whimsical finges, and on and on.
What a Fabulous Vision!
Thanks so much!! 👩🍳🧁🍭🍩💗
Family harmony 🎼🎶 at the end just made this video a masterpiece! And the cedar chest re-do is perfect for a little girls room. I’m up for a bit more molding, but it would need to be painted the same red. Any other color would just compete with the sweet decoupage paper and trim.
Love that idea, and thanks so much!! Great to hear you enjoyed the full fable. 🎶🍭♥️😊
This is wonderful just the way it is.
Many thanks!
it turned out lovely, you should be able to get at least twice that for a lovely lane
Thank you!
Leave it as it is! It's great!
Thanks so much! 👩🍳🧁🍭🍩💗
🎉i love that red and the paper and the whole project. Adorable!! Maybe the rope frames could be smaller size?
It's so fun, just perfect!
Thanks so much! 👩🍳🧁🍭🍩💗
Enjoy it as it is
Ok, thanks! 👩🍳🧁🍭🍩💗
Go for it!
Yahoo! Thanks! 👩🍳🥮🧁🍭💗
It´s perfect just the way you designed it. For me, it doesn't need any else. Thanks for showing your work. Greetings from Spain ❤❤❤
Yay!! Many thanks, Maria!! 👩🍳🧁🍭🍩💗
No walk away. Honestly, the only thing I like is the red paint. ❤ I would have loved seeing some stencil work myself. I always love your stencil painting.
Thanks - so great to hear that about the stenciling!
I love love love it, fabulous colour xx
Hooray, and thank you so much!!! 👩🍳🧁🍭🍩💗
I love it, love it, love it!!!
Hooray, many thanks!! 🍭♥️😊
Keep it like it is. Super cute!
Thanks so much! 🍭♥️😊
I think it's beautiful just the way it is! If it wasn't such a bold red color, then maybe it would work with more embellishments on it, but it's perfect now!
Love that, thanks so much! ♥️
Love it the way it is.
Hooray, and thank you! 👩🍳🧁🍭🍩💗
Wow! It's perfect. I love the red
Hooray, and thank you!! ♥️♥️♥️
You did really great with the music background. Music was awesome today.
That is so great to hear, thanks so much!! 🎶♥️
No- It's beautiful just the way it is right now. The bold red paint is enough so nothing more is needed. I think you priced it just right for now, see how it goes and maybe adjust for future pieces. I still remember another incredibly gorgeous chest you did a couple years ago with Alice in Wonderland theme perhaps? and how I so wanted to buy it! Great job Andy!
Thank you so much, such great feedback! 👩🍳🧁🍭🍩💗
Leave it as is. The red is so bold & rich that you don't want to take away from it. It's a statement.
Ok, thanks so much! ♥️
Trust your instincts! I think it's a very fun piece.
Awesome, thanks so much! 👩🍳🧁🍭🍩♥️
If you can add embellishments that look like candy or frosting I say go for it in a big way - it would add to the whimsical feel of the piece. Glad you made it through the storms - they were quite the event here in Santa Cruz!
Love that idea, thanks! Oh my goodness - yes, I'm sure they were - hope you and yours are good!
Such a nostalgic piece. Reminds me of a bygone era where looking at treats through the window and longing for one was a thing (no baby-cino’s back in the day!
Thanks so much, and oh my goodness - I had to look up "baby-cinos"! 😂
More is more, take it all the way!
Oooo, love that!
Oh my goodness, your creativity just boggles my mind. This is such an incredible piece and I feel that you used just the perfect amount of trim. Any more embellishment, in my humble opinion, would have made it just too busy. But I'll love seeing you go all wild on another piece! I was glued to my computer screen watching this one.
Hooray!! Many thanks, so great to hear this. 👩🍳🥮🧁🍭💗
Love it! It’s just perfect!
Yay, thank you! ♥️♥️♥️
Amazing transformation! I love Fort York Red as well. Here in Placer County, Ca we experienced the atmospheric weather also. Lost power for about 8 hrs.
Yay, many thanks! Yes, was quite the storm, wasn't it? Glad your power is back! 👩🍳🧁🍭🍩💗
Yes go with more molds for sure
Wooo-hooo, thanks!
It's perfect the way it is.
Yay, thank you! 👩🍳🧁🍭🍩💗
Looks great! Wouldn't change a thing!
Thanks so much! 🍭♥️😊
I think it’s perfect just the way it is.
Hooray!! Many thanks. 👩🍳🧁🍭🍩💗
Love it just the way it is😊
Yay, many thanks! 🍭♥️😊
I just wonder how the trim would look gold. Gold and red is a elegant combination and gold seems really popular right now.
Ooo...very pretty, I'm sure....👩🍳🥮🧁🍭💗
