    Old Buffets OR NEW? Some don't like the updated look but some swoon for it! What do you prefer? Thanks for being here! Be sure to check our LILLY MOON PAINT and use coupon code LEMONS. I know you will LOVE it as much as I do!

      Thank you! About the very first step, what is that "simple green"? Personally I use "simple transparent", but I wonder :)

    Just found your channel on this buffet and I was hooked. Not to mention your not blah blah blahing more than you are showing your expertise. I subscribed for two reasons, quick video and not a lot of gabbing. Beautiful work. 😍

    What can I say? Green is one of my two favorite colors, and this one is so beautiful. Perfect tone, I would say. Your work is perfect and you guide us step by step. I was wondering why you had long sleeves if you live in Texas. Then you said it's about 50 degrees there. I laughed, because 50 degrees here in Massachusetts is perfect for me. I wish it was like that all year. Contrary to you, I can't stand the heat and humidity. I love cold weather. Thanks for a great video.

    I really like this green for older pieces and the beige really brings new life in this beautiful piece. I dislike dark browns and black on furniture as to me it overtakes the craftsmanship of the piece. These new colors add so much life to these pieces it brings joy to my heart.❤😊

    Even though this was a lot of work, you used the k-i-s-s theory in your design plan. Good choice. The color/s are neutral, and you kept the top and bottom in line with a natural wood look which gave it the look of a high end piece. Kudos to you.

    Love the colors! I notiice you design similarly with other furniture. My hunch is you figured out what sells in your area. Beautifully, I might add. Did you do a lot of research to see what might sell in your area or did you do mostly test runs on furniture to see how long it would take to sell? Thanks!

    Lemon Lady, I painted my house that same grey/green, not done yet though. Minor accent trim is like a pale marigold yellow (tan looked too much like New England, and I am in FL). The ormolus you took off kinda looks like there is something missing in those two areas, might not have looked like too much when painted. Did you try to put some brass rub and buff on the doors' raised molding? That piece was nice from the get go, you really did update it and I especially like how you did the wash basically the same color as the rest, it ties the whole thing together. Good call to use the same hardware. Of course I am being nit picky, fantastic result, and no wonder it went so fast. This should be in one for your top ten list.

      I just finished a piece that shows you exactly what I am talking about. Too bad you don't have a junk email to send you pics. BTW, the putty you used it about the best it gets, that I know of. There is a shot of this buffet resting on 4 1/2 pint cans and that 1-2" of lifting it off of the floor, makes these chunky pieces look so much lighter. The paint of course does the most of that. But this is your strong point, you know when to say when, I need to do that more, allot more.
