You and your husband are awesome ! I love how you jump in and explain but you don’t drag the video out. I have watched videos that drag on and on and sometimes I don’t even finish them ! Love you and your family!
If you wanted it to look like it was rotting in a barn after several terrible paint jobs, you achieved it 100%. Having said that, I am sure some will love it, as I have loved the majority of your projects.
i can't believe how incredibly rude ppl are! i love this video i think she was very brave to step out of her comfort zone and do something different..ppl she has a channel for a reason to help teach ppl DIFFERENT techniques, is she suppose to paint everything white? if u cant say something nice keep it to urself... they are just normal folks trying to support a large family by doing what they love and i commend them for that. Its easy to sit on this side of the video and be rude but it takes guts to put your work out there for the world to see! Jami i loved it! You go girl!
I am new here and i am so glad i found you guys. I want to do this but i have never done it before. Your furniture that you paint is amazing. I have not read the other comments but I trust that they have been rude. You siad it very well Brittany Weisz, good for you! You are very right. You said it all. Unfortunately there is always rude people and they are usually to stupid to understand.
I know this look isn't for everyone but I like when something is unique. I absolutely love it! I wish you were in my area. I am going to have to try this out myself to get a piece like this!
Your style is so awesome, this is my first year painting and your method just clicks. I didn’t even know about the vinegar with water. Thanks a bunch. Makes me rejoice.
Phew! What a journey! It was like “Whaaaaat? Just where is she going with this!?” I almost covered my eyes when you were spraying the white paint/water mix. But as always, out of your vision, a most fabulous piece was born. It’s stunning!
Wow! Watching this was like reading an international detective novel. I wasn't quite sure where it was going or how it would end! But, it did have a happy ending. The armoire is a work of art. It's gorgeous.
Jamie, congratulations‼️ I truly loved it, the colors are beautiful. Some time ago I used to give away wooden tables, chairs, etc. What I do now is give my old furniture another look as wood is so expensive. So going through UA-cam for ideas I ran across boho, chippy paint cause want to paint a wooden furniture with shelters I have in my walk in closet so I’ll think about the colors and give it a try. I’m from Guatemala and live close to a colonial town called Antigua where there are excellent carpenters who design & manufacture wooden dressers, wardrobes, chairs & doors in chippy, boho or vintage style (expensive too) and many nice hotels are decorated with that exquisite style. Too bad I don’t think I can find that DIY paint in my country but I’ve invented how to paint my kitchen cabinets, pantry table/chairs and other small wooden products at home with latex paint and have turned out really nice. I sure understand the hard work and effort you do with the wooden pieces, I’ve hand sanded (not with an electric sander) and I was regretting it when I first started with the chairs & table in the pantry but once I began had to finish them as there was no step back. 🤨🤨🤨 When I read some comments just couldn’t believe it. What’s wrong with the human race? Uneducated, rude & mean, where did values and principles go? I taught my son (now 22) think before speaking, don’t ever hurt peoples feelings, respect your teachers, friends, girls, Ladies, seniors, etc. if there’s gossiping keep your mouth shut! You’re doing it for a great cause and that’s what matters, your work is absolutely lovely, nice for you to share your gift, at the end there’s your masterpiece ‼️. Blessings “Kindness is a language which the deaf can hear and the blind can see. Mark Twain” “Be kind to unkind people - they need it the most. Unknown”
Love all of this! Thank you for your kind words. The furniture you paint sounds beautiful. I love painting Boho style pieces. It’s very artistic and lets me work on my creativity. The look isn’t for everyone, some people have strong feeling about it lol. Have a great day!
Jami Ray Vintage totally agree with you, it’s not for everyone. It’s in style now & decorated with modern pieces and houses look so beautiful, too bad there’s not an option on UA-cam to send pics of furniture or hotels in Antigua, Guatemala for everyone to check them out and see how modern these masterpieces you decorate are in” truly beautiful‼️ keep up the art you are gifted and thanks a lot for sharing.. you know I had never heard of this boho style☹️🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔?
My first thoughts on this armoire were: Colors blended in such a way that showcases a silent, visual metaphor of a fully matured woman that is in control of her life, she knows she's a woman, she knows that no one could make her doubt the choices she has made, she feels sexy in her skin and knows that it's impossible to see beauty without having plenty of ugly to compare it to and if she could...she would live in an Alice in Wonderland(the original) kinda realm but her character would be giving the very good advice! I love love LOVE this piece, it's a bit creepy and whole lot of bold blended in with unique ,sexy ,womanly charm!
As I love all things bono, this cupboard appeals to me. It would look !lovely in a bedroom with soft floating curtains, boho bedcover, scatter rugs on the floor.i would love this in my house.
One of my favorite pieces you have done, Jami! You look beautiful in this video, by the way! Love your hair and makeup! Thanks for sharing your fabulous creations!!!
This is a compliment! I have been watching a family living in Morocco and this piece would definitely be one that would fit right in with all the bright colors. I can honestly say I love it. I don't know where I'd put it but I can see this style taking on in the future of the Chalk paint world. You're on the forefront Jami Ray! Way to keep moving ahead in your design.
I really like this idea. Maybe not these colors and maybe not such a large piece of furniture BUT small accent piece with different colors that compliment my home decor! Yes!!! I love it!
You made this piece, a work of art. I can appreciate true artistry. True artistry has a mind of it's on, it just flows, like the wind. This is what makes it unique. I enjoy and indulge in all arts, and I can respect the knowledge and passion behind art. Art is not specific, it is freedom!!! Great Work!!!
Ola! Jami Ray, Thanks for this video. We want to decorate our spare room to look mediterranean and have been looking for the effect of really old chipped paint walls. I have now found something that we can run with.
Found the water / spray bottle techniques helpful and it gave me some good ideas. The final piece was not to my taste but I'm sure someone will love it.
Jami Ray Vintage I’m so excited to use this technique because here in Texas with the serape being on trend this style has blown up, and will come in handy so thank you for sharing! Brush off all the hateful comments! It’s not for everyone just as modern single colored pieces are not everyone’s cup of tea either.
Hello there Jami Ray....My name is Maxine-Michelle and I live in Perth....Western Australia...I think that you are awesome!!!...you have the best videos on Shabby Chic painting on furniture....I am just learning how to do this...I teach Mixed Media and Art here in Perth so I will have a go at anything...I just sit and watch all your videos...you hubby is so great too and your gorgeous children...I have been to the States 5 times with my hubby ....we adore America...I have 3 daughters and one son and 10 grandies...I just love and adore them so very much...this video is absolutely gorgeous!!!...Have an wonderful day....hugs Maxine-Michelle.
Very unique, great use of color...it lends itself to a fairytale theme ...magical ...whimsical....animation come to life. The piece could have been beautiful on its own , but you gave it a signature transformation with this painting technique. It is obvious that this style is of particular taste, however the technique is well executed and the operator is talented. Personal taste and the look you are trying to achieve is always important when transforming a wood piece. painting wood is always controversial. I would use this type of technique on an unrepairable veneer or a salvage piece. Great for hiding imperfections!👌😀
LOL, Jamie, reading these comments made me laugh. Remember, Picasso was misunderstood too !! I too love artsy creative work so I think you did a great job, it's lovely.
Love the end result....the blend of colors is lovely. No this isn't "farmhouse" looking but that doesn't make it ugly lol. I personally love the boho look and the artistry that goes into painting it.
Thank you for explaining sealing the piece. I didn't know if I needed to seal before or after dark wax. Sense you said it can be done either way but the sealing before keeps it from changing the colors too much, I think I know what I need to do on my next piece. That was great. See just that little bit of information I looked at others for didn't say and I had a feeling after watching other videos that you'd cover it.
Kissing Booth is a beautiful fucsia pinky/red. Although this isn't a piece I would choose for my home. I appreciate diversity. I'm a New Englander and can see this piece in many beach home's. Great work.
Maybe you forgot, but to move heavy furniture, you use those plastic things you put under each leg and it slides effortlessly. To move it from one place to another you can roll it with a dolly.
At first I was like HEEELLLL NO!! But the last finished pic dropped my jaw!! ABSOLUTELY BEAUTIFUL AND UNIQUE!! Reminds me of a NEW SPIN on shabby chic don't know why but this piece reminds me of denim!! I love ur think out of the box....try it attitude...keep WINNING!!
Reading some of the comments on your feed truly disappoints me. Honestly though, if a person says something negative, without being constructive or tactful, their opinion loses credibility anyway! ;-) I absolutely admire the tremendous talent youve demonstrated in this video. Very inspiring, and I plan on implementing some of your techniques in the near future. Looks totally bad ass. Thanks for sharing!
It's a public forum. If a person does this they can't be this sensitive. Not everyone will like every piece. No one was rude with their comment. Jamie asks for opinion, so I'm sure she wants all to be truthful. You can't grow, if you're too sensitive.
You and your husband are awesome ! I love how you jump in and explain but you don’t drag the video out. I have watched videos that drag on and on and sometimes I don’t even finish them ! Love you and your family!
If you wanted it to look like it was rotting in a barn after several terrible paint jobs, you achieved it 100%. Having said that, I am sure some will love it, as I have loved the majority of your projects.
I'm a huge fan of Debi's DIY paint! It's the best ever not to mention she's just the coolest most creative soul I think I've ever met.
We sure love her! 😊
I think the underlying message or lesson that I am taking away from this is really just not to be scared!! ....Just GO FOR IT!!!
You got this!
Pieces like this are featured in some of the most exquisite films ever made. What a living treasure you have created. I would never re-do.
Probably my favorite all-time piece!!!
Very adventurous.
Very unique.
Very colorful.
Very unpredictable.
Fun to watch the process.
Very inspiring.
❤️❤️❤️
Thanks!
That's very pretty in a unique way but I love things that are different! Beautiful
i can't believe how incredibly rude ppl are! i love this video i think she was very brave to step out of her comfort zone and do something different..ppl she has a channel for a reason to help teach ppl DIFFERENT techniques, is she suppose to paint everything white? if u cant say something nice keep it to urself... they are just normal folks trying to support a large family by doing what they love and i commend them for that.

Exactly❤
Wow so cool looks like a beautiful piece of art that was left out in the rain
I love this ! I think it turned out great. Don't listen to the haters, boho style isn't for everyone. Ill definitely be trying this. Thank you !
Thank you! Would love to see what you paint.
I think it’s cool to, but as a lifelong bohemian, I can see this is hippie boho esque, but not sure it’s true boho.
This style may not be for everyone but I love how unique is, in the right room this would look fantastic! Now I want to give it a try
I know this look isn't for everyone but I like when something is unique. I absolutely love it! I wish you were in my area. I am going to have to try this out myself to get a piece like this!
Hmmmmm, its unique and can see how someone would like it, though it not my cup of tea. Very creative.
Love it, it reminds me of Moulin Rouge
I love that it looks like a GHOST WARDROBE! It looks like it weighs SO MUCH LESS! The wood is SO HEAVY LOOKING. I REALLY like it.
Hehe. Zeb moved it. He says it’s still heavy lol.
You took this piece to a whole other level. I love it!
Worried here and there, but it turned out fantastic, love it.
Omg Jamie...how have I never seen this before? Girl....this is simply the best!! You had better won every which way there was!! Love it!
Thank you! A more traditional piece won but this piece I did earned a lot of money for my charity!
Now I like boho because of this.
+lady kayefceee thank you!!
Lol me 2
This piece is Everything! Just gorgeous.
Your style is so awesome, this is my first year painting and your method just clicks.
I didn’t even know about the vinegar with water. Thanks a bunch. Makes me rejoice.
This piece is BEAUTIFUL
Phew! What a journey! It was like “Whaaaaat? Just where is she going with this!?” I almost covered my eyes when you were spraying the white paint/water mix. But as always, out of your vision, a most fabulous piece was born. It’s stunning!

Love! Love! LOVE! And amazed with the whole process!
Wow! That's huge! Love it! Beautiful work!

In the description of this video there is a link to our Facebook sharing group where people can post pictures and things.
Your hair looked fantastic in this video !
Wasn't sure at first but the finished piece is stunning. I need to give this a go .
Emily Malcolm warning its super addictive lol

I think it's pretty! Definitely something I'd put in my office!
You should prob invest in a pump sprayer. They are available in most hardware stores. 5 gallons and 5-6 minutes of spray after you pump it up.
As I love all things bono, this cupboard appeals to me. It would look !lovely in a bedroom with soft floating curtains, boho bedcover, scatter rugs on the floor.i would love this in my house.
absolutely beautiful
This is gorgeous! I love watching you and your husband! When I am feeling stuck in my work...i watch you and you all inspire me! xo
Thank you!

What did u use to seal it this would look great in a princess theme room as well would look good with some of golden ticket added in ther
That wax was magic!! 😍
Love it. Colors are amazing together
❤️❤️
I know this is your most controversial piece but it’s one of my favorites!
Absolutely hands down one of my favorite pieces either I've done or seen. Love it love it.. Just beautiful ♥️

That looks fantastic. Gave that piece so much character. Very Bloomsbury Set-ish. Shows what a great designer you are.
Thanks! ❤️❤️
so gorgeous. ..the look
reminds me of something that you would find in a gypsy caravan
tammy sirianni exactly :)
Why ? No Gipsys don't paint like that.
Ola! Jami Ray, Thanks for this video. We want to decorate our spare room to look mediterranean and have been looking for the effect of really old chipped paint walls. I have now found something that we can run with.
Awesome! Your room is going to be so fun!
I love the colors! LOVE IT! AWESOME JOB!
Thanks! ❤️
Found the water / spray bottle techniques helpful and it gave me some good ideas. The final piece was not to my taste but I'm sure someone will love it.
Very pretty!!! Almost shabby chic
Wow!!! Very, very gorgeous!
Thanks!
It looks amazing and a thousand times better than it did before you started.
Thank you Dana!
Yesss I love this junk gypsy vibe it’s beautiful and so western
Thank you! I had so much fun painting it!

Great job you went for it😊 and you got it!!!!
I Love it!!! Beautiful!!! Thank you for the demo!!
Lovely work. You have quite an eye for color mix and contrast. You elevated a piece that looked old and dated.
Thank you!
Jamie, I'm so inspired and excited about your project. It's enormous and yet you made it look doable. Thanks so much!!!
Alice in wonderland ❤
Absolutely loved this!!

Creative out of a box piece! 💕

I absolutely love this ... I have never tried something like this but am wanting boho for my craft room
LOL, Jamie, reading these comments made me laugh. Remember, Picasso was misunderstood too !! I too love artsy creative work so I think you did a great job, it's lovely.

Love the gypsy bohemian look. Very creative nicely done 😜
Thank you! ❤️❤️
This is beautiful! Great Vision!
Thank you!
Initially, I was no way! The finish product is fabulous!
Thank you!
I like feeling the paint vs seeing it...so much better
Really special looking. I want it!
Thanks!
Absolutely LOVE your creative vibe!!
So so gourgeous
Love your boldness. This is unique and I like the way it turned out. :)
Thank you!
Kissing Booth is a beautiful fucsia pinky/red. Although this isn't a piece I would choose for my home. I appreciate diversity. I'm a New Englander and can see this piece in many beach home's. Great work.
Thank you! ❤️❤️
THAT IS SO COOL!
I absolutely adore this
❤️❤️
Jamie you nailed it! Dionne will be proud! I love the colors, I love the end results! But girl get yourself a better spray bottle! LOL
Thank you! ❤️❤️
I just love this!
Maybe you forgot, but to move heavy furniture, you use those plastic things you put under each leg and it slides effortlessly. To move it from one place to another you can roll it with a dolly.
I wasn't sure about it a few times, but it turned out really beautiful. I imagine finding it in a fancy old french house.
Thanks! ❤️
Looks awesome...never seen this process before..
Thanks!
Love this look!
At first I was like HEEELLLL NO!! But the last finished pic dropped my jaw!! ABSOLUTELY BEAUTIFUL AND UNIQUE!! Reminds me of a NEW SPIN on shabby chic don't know why but this piece reminds me of denim!! I love ur think out of the box....try it attitude...keep WINNING!!

I love watching all the techniques and all the projects you guys do! Good Luck! I hope you win!!!
I like certain parts of it. I didnt quite like how the orignal wood was showing through it kind of made it look trashy. I love the ghosty look it has
