  • In this video, I’m embarking on a journey to transform a colonial-style chest of drawers that was given to me for FREE, into a modern masterpiece. This furniture piece had seen better days, with damaged veneer, outdated design, and in need of some love. I’ll walk you through each step of the process, from cleaning and repairing to applying the stunning new finish. Plus, I’m sharing a heartwarming plan for the profits from this project. Don't miss this inspiring makeover!

    I think this makeover is top notch! This is the type of piece you'd see at West Elm, Article, Urban Outfitters and other high-end furniture boutiques.
    You have an excellent eye for marketable pieces. Thank you so much for supporting the food banks. The need is great and their donations are down. Bravo Katie 👏 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟

    The wood filler in a baggie idea was great! Then snip and squeeze filler into crack just like a baker would apply frosting. You win the prize 🏆 for thinking outside the box and adapting for a simple, easy and elegant solution. ❤🛠️

      @jarcha4200 7 місяців тому

      I personally don’t like the new bottom. I think it’s a poor design choice to not leave adequate space between the bottom of the dresser and the floor. It is not durable, it’s going to get banged into by shoes/ boots, vacuum, cleaners, toy cars cars, and anything else within an inch of the floor. Furthermore, it doesn’t allow for easily cleaning underneath the dresser (without moving the entire dresser on those tiny little felt pegs). I need furniture that I can clean around and use without damaging it. That’s why wood furniture is supposed to actually have legs on it.

    Donating to your food bank is an awesome thing to do. I read an article that made me think about what to donate. Items I never thought about. Canned food is a given but I know meal kits are donated. What is not donated is what goes into the kits. It also lists personal items for women and babies. I'm not sure if my food pantry is equipped to store cold food and essentials. I intend to call.

    • @salvagedbykscott
      @salvagedbykscott  7 місяців тому

      So true! We donate regularly but with this project we’re specifically planning to purchase a bunch of perishable dairy items (milk, butter, yogurt, cheese) to help out for the holiday weeks when the kids are home from school and may not have access to their regular breakfast/lunch programs at school.

    Thank you for this video! I picked up the desk bureau version of this exact piece for $10 at a consignment shop and wondered how in the world I would make it over. It's in pretty good condition but the front piece screams 'take it off!'. Thanks, Katie, for another amazing flip.

  • @miriamjames4140
    @miriamjames4140 7 місяців тому +1

    Love how this piece turned out! I also wanted to mention that often food banks have deals with food suppliers to buy food at a discounted cost, so donating the equivalent money to a food bank rather than actual food can go further, and they can get exactly what they need. That being said, obviously anything helps and I think it's really admirable that you donate the profits from the sale of this piece!
