  • In today’s furniture makeover video, I am giving this thrifted desk a gorgeous transformation. I love turning trash to treasure and this desk was trashed. I had to strip all the old paint off using Citristrip. Then primed and painted it. I used Dixie Bell’s chalk mineral paint in two colors to give it a gorgeous blend. I stained the top in a rich Walnut color and revived the hardware with bronze and gold gilding waxes. I added Dixie Bell’s best dang wax to the corner of the drawer fronts and the gorgeous WoodUBend appliques.

    I have a bedroom set that is exactly the same style and hardware. It was a night stand , vanity with mirror and bench, tall dresser and two sleigh style beds. Wood I was told is mahogany. I had it refinished. Used it for my sons room. The refinisher told me he could see a sticker behind the mirror that said 1940. My aunt originally bought this set when she graduated from high school and started working at General Electric lamp division in Warren Ohio.

      Oh wow, thanks for the information! I had a feeling it was mahogany, but I didn’t want to say it just in case I was wrong 😂

    I wish there were television shows about furniture refurbishment like this. If there are, I haven't seen many. Tons of house flipping but this is calming, educational, teach people to save instead of throwing everything out. Teaches people to plan and learn etc. I could watch stuff like this all day a d we truly need to learn to appreciate quality and save things and reuse them. I am sure a car refurbishment show would be great, too. I do love furniture rehab tho. You did great with this piece. Beautiful!

      I agree! Have you watched the Furniture Flipping Teacher? She has a furniture flipping show in her patreon group. I believe it’s $5 a month. I think the money pays for the competition and all the production and everything that goes into it. I’ve heard it’s amazing. Those two are so talented. I’m not a betting person but if I were, I would say they’ll have a show on Netflix or something someday. I haven’t signed up to watch yet but I am going to soon!

    The project came out fabulous. I wish all the cool products that you ladies on u tube use to do your furniture magic were available many decades ago when I had the furniture rescue bug. I mostly did solid wood pieces, sanding, using those awful smelling strippers, and I finally purchased a dremel tool with attachments that really helped those tricky areas and designs that back in the day furniture had. I loved this, wish I could do this creative stuff, but alas I am an old lady and all I can do now is watch, but I so enjoy doing so. You go girl

    Fascinating to watch you in action. I’m In Australia and have done a few pieces, mainly for myself but have sold some (much to my great surprise). I have just bought a MCM stereo gram, the front is not material where the speakers are, it is striped pieces of wood in perfect condition, and so is the top but the sides are damaged and it is all veneer so I want to,preserve what I can and just paint and repair the little marks on the sides and do those gorgeous MCM legs in black. It,is going to be for my large tv. I do have a lovely ultra modern white one but is has no personality so my sister has bought it. Our weather has been so hot that I haven’t been able to start anything outside yet so tomorrow, fingers crossed, when can get the orbital sander and just do a very gentle sand and clean. I love these MCM pieces, they are a little older than me but just so stylish. It even has the record player stacker arm for more than one album to be ready to go and then drop down to play. Thank you for the inspiration that you give to those of us who are not great at this but really love doing it. Beautifully done!
