AMAZING RESTORATION of a TRASHED mid century desk - ODIE’S OIL on teak

- There are a couple of things I'd do differently were I to do this all over again. I skipped the oxalic acid on the dark water ring, and probably shouldn't have. In fact, I might redo that small section before I sell the piece. The other thing I'd have changed.. is that I would have replaced a rectangular section of veneer over the large hole and the area where the veneer was missing for some reason. It would have been a much better blend into the new finish than trying to use filler etc. Sadly, it wasn't an option at the moment, so it is what it is. haha. Even so... this piece is a million times better than it was and I'm happy to have kept it from ended up in the landfill! PLUS- I had this really cool teak chair in storage, JUST WAITING for another teak desk to come along. They go perfectly together!
This beat up, marked up desk was FREE on FB Marketplace. I knew right away it was a Domino Møbler piece, but it had been "modified".. the right hand set of drawers was completely removed, there were holes drilled all over the piece, and someone had used metal brackets screwed into everything to hold it together.
I knew from having worked on these desks previously that they are usually pretty sturdy, so I was happy not to have to use any of those brackets (filled all the holes) and the two right legs were supportive enough that I didn't need to re-attach their modified cross piece.

That desk went from being completely forgettable to a beautiful piece of furniture! Also, I think even a restored piece of vintage furniture shouldn't be totally perfect; it's those small imperfections that give it character and tell a story about its life.
lpp
My parents had 2 huge credenza and hutch units which my daughter now has. The finish is so dry and faded I've given her my blessing to paint these once beautiful teak units. After watching this video, I am sending her the Odies information. She LOVES the teak and you've convinced me these heirloom pieces have a chance for new life.
People seem to ignore the fact that wood dries out and needs oiling. It makes a big difference.
I’m not a carpenter and I have no skills but some how I really enjoy your videos. I like your voice and comments I find them funny. You are a wonderful human being and I wish you all the happiest in the world. Thank you for sharing
You’re like a furniture magician! Every time I see one of your videos I am shocked and in awe, you are so talented. Wished I lived closer to you so I could purchase some of your pieces
I was just going to say she is the dr for furniture. Amazing work Angie and I think odix should sponsor you.
Right! A Furniture magician!!! 👍
I agree, she's a furniture magician.
This piece came out beautifully.
Me to!
You should definitely be sponsored by odies because you make me wanna buy it straight away. Your work is AMAZING and definitely the best restoration channel I have come across.
I hope Mr. Dashner is watching you as well. You did a great job as usual! Perfect partner to the chair.
Ah, you and Dashner, two of my top favorites.
Mine as well.
The chair and desk look like they have always lived together. Very accomplished transformation! Ms. and Mr. Odie should deliver a gift basket to your workshop. There is no better proof of the magic their products can create than this video.
Aww thank you :-)
You're nothing less than a magician. It's an unbelievable transformation
Awesome job
Nice job!
Hey I watch your channel 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼🇺🇸👍🏼 subscriber I am 😄
omg hi!! yay you both are great!!
I’m an old fart so I remember mcm, especially Danish Modern from pieces in my own home and everywhere else. You really renewed this desk and chair beautifully. You respect wood. 😆🙂. I’m thinking they took out the right side drawers to make the desk more user friendly. Glad you got rid of all those brackets. They were pretty ugly. Nice restoration!
Ok, is it weirs that I fall asleep to Dashner, his voice is so soothing. You both are two of my faves.
Angie, you are an Old Beaten-Up Furniture Angel! This piece turned out beautifully and the chair is perfect with it. 🥰
Thank you! 😊
🐼 Big Bear Hugs from a 68 yr old grandma in Kirby, Texas, USA 🐼 ❤️ 🎀 ❤️ 🎀 ❤️
I'm becoming more enchanted by MCM furniture with each piece you redo. Considering I started by thinking the only style worse was industrial, that's saying a lot! This is beautiful and to me, the few remaining imperfections tell a story and show there's history in it. Love it! 😀💖💝💕👍
I love the fact that u used Odie's on the sides of the drawers. Also, I love Dashner's channel. Fantastic job. 👍
The color of the wood with just the oil....just beautiful! And what it did for the vinyl on that chair! It really is an incredible product!
Thank you very much!
Dashner is amazing! So are you 😉!
You need to send this video to Odies and see if they will sponsor you. You do such a good job restoring pieces and featuring their products. This desk turns out beautifully.
I’m told they don’t actually do sponsorships.. but the main contact in Canada actually just moved back to Nova Scotia and lives about an hour away. He’s been a wealth of information for me and has gone out of his way to thank and acknowledge what I’m doing with their products. Maybe if they do it in the future, I’ll have a shot! Haha :-)
Easily my favorite furniture UA-camr. Amazing work, looks so beautiful!
This became an absolutely gorgeous!!! I thought you might paint it but with your magic touch and Odies it didn't need paint! I'm in love with this girl! Thank you.
Excellent job, if Odies isn’t a sponsor they should be. Anyone looking for a 20 plus year old piece expecting it not to show its age is being unreasonable.
We love how you're able to fill and blend the wood for an almost invisible repair! The chair is the perfect match for the desk. Love it!!!!!💗💗💗💗
I love those drawer knobs
Just WOW! I am so impressed with everything you do. I wish everyone would treat MCM pieces with the respect you give them. You are taking furniture that most people wouldn’t give a second glance to and bringing them back to life for another generation to appreciate, but not only that, what you do is proof that not everything needs a coat of a paint. A beautiful wood grain brings so much life and warmth to a space. Very well done Angie, you worked your magic yet again! Thanks for showcasing the beauty of MCM!
Another jaw dropping rescue- Angie, you are a furniture superhero! Yes, that's it, you definitely need a cape!!
You inspire me to want to disassemble my grandfather's old and in-need-of-help dining table.
YOu have shown me that you know your stuff! I like watching professional dancers, singers, and speakers, and you are a professional. That means that you know what you know, what you don't know, and you have the intellect to figure it out and pull through. I like that.
It is nice to see you actually refinnish that desk instead of painting it. I do like some painted furniture but this had a classic look to it. Loved it.
You are the WOOD WHISPERER!!!!! Stunning, as usual.
Hi Angie, I hope you got your tea's ok, I'm a bit confused on Canadian money & ours, but my best friend is from Canada so I will have her explain it all to me! I'm 71 & she is 72 & we have been friends since she moved here from Vancouver when she was 11 yrs old, I told her how much I loved to watch you create master pieces, she said Canadians do it better!LOL!!! I taught her how to paint & she taught me how to sew & she kept making me tear my stitches out & do it right, I just called her names!LOL! I shared some of your videos with our little flipping furniture group so I hope some of them come & see you, by the way, this piece was breath taking also! I loved how you put one piece on the 4 wheeler & the piece you were working on, on top of that, I have crippling arthritis of the spine & it really hurts my back the way I'm doing it now. Thank you for so much!
Wonderful! Also a big fan of Dashner.
It must be a great feeling to be able to use a finishing project that you can use on your bare hands.
Well done! I like how you restored it instead of flipped it. And as a half Dane I'm going to say you can't get more Danish than this. It's the epitome of Danishness and it reminds me of many Danish homes I've seen.
I love the fact you used the Odie’s product to show. I love it. It truly brings out the wood grains. It is beautiful. 🌹❤️
Looks perfect to me! I love when you use the Odies Oil it makes the wood grain come to life.That desk was blessed when it found its way to your workshop.
Thank you! Cheers! 🙂
What a beautiful little work desk. You've worked your magic again. Most people would have thrown it in the trash. Most flippers would have just painted it. I've been thinking of you as a flipper, (since your channel came up along with several flippers) but I've come to realize that you're really are a furniture restorer. You took the time to take this piece apart and restore each inch of it so lovingly that the transformation is really breathtaking. And paired with that chair...WOW!
Jeepers! I'm pretty sure you look for the most damaged pieces. 🙃 You work absolute magic and the time you put in is absolutely incredible!! Also, Odies should ABSOLUTELY be sending you free stuff! Wish we got it in SA!
You're a wizard, Angie. Pure and simple. Beautiful work!
I'm running out of words to describe your masterpieces. So this time all I am going to comment on was your patience and painstaking repair that made this desk shine like new.
Thanks for teaching us about Odie's OIl. You've got me hooked! We bought a "ready to move" home to live in while we reno an old house. It has some very old cabinets that need a light sanding and seal. Oak doors, Odie's Oil. Great thanks!
This turned out so beautifully. You really can't even see the wear that was on the front part of the top. You do amazing work, Angie😊😊
Thank you very much! 😊
OMG. I love Dashner too. You 2 are my favorites. My main watches on UA-cam.
Excellent restoration. Good to go for another 50 years!
I love that you RESCUE the pieces and not just strip and paint. I have loved this about your work from the beginning. You are a restorer and not a makeover-er (not a word).
Oh, wow! I’m a woodworker and didn’t know you can use Odie’s Oil on other materials. I can’t wait to try it on other things. Thanks!
That is a beautiful finish. Treated with sensitivity.
Birdy
You cannot convince me that that desk and that chair are soulmates. They look stunning together. I love the desk.
Angie to the rescue!! From being one small step from the trash, you have brought this desk back and made it so beautiful!! I wonder if any of the people you get pieces life this from ever buy them back from you!?!
No, I've never had that happen. 🙂 Thank you so much for watching!
Each video is edging me closer to refinishing my own piece.
I love that! You can do it!!
Recently found your channel. Currently binge watching while recovering from mild illness. Thank you for the great content! The work you do is beautiful.
Welcome!! I hope you healed up quickly!
Wow. That’s beautiful. You cannot even see the spot that’s been filled in. ❤️
Your shows are the best. Your skills just blow me away. I love the look of Odie's oil on this desk and chair.
Thanks so much for watching Pam!
Again - a great job! I am always happy when a dumped piece of furniture is brought back to life. Occasionally I buy small, rotten old furniture just for the veneer that I store to repair damage to furniture. Dashner is also one of my favorites, alongside the great antique restorers Thomas Johnson (Maine) and Lothar Jansen-Greef (Germany). Thanks to his videos, I almost only use bone glue. Jansen-Greef stands for a sustainable concept of life with his videos.
When you first showed the desk I would have bet that you would have to bring out the paint. Once again an amazing transformation. I love this sweet little desk.
What I love about watching you work is that you remind me of someone rescuing a little puppy and putting all your love for it a real true rescue .so lovingly rescued .it touches my heart .thankyou for the soul you put into your work .
"Perfectly imperfect"!! Katie Scott said that. You did a great job Angie!! And you already know I'm gonna compliment the staging photos. Hoping all is well, Dirty Jersey out!!
When I saw the small hole in the top I thought to myself 'well I guess all she can do is fill it and paint the top' but you worked a miracle on that piece! It's beautiful! I love Dashner too ! Been a long time subscriber to him . He and Tom Johnson (have you seen him?) would be so proud of you 👏!
Angie you are so incredibly talented and meticulous in also the work that you do on these furniture pieces. The love that you put in this work is noticeable and inspirational.
Keep on doing a great job!
Thanks so much for watching!
This poor desk was seriously abused. You gave it a great make over. That chair looked like it was made for that desk.
What a great job you have done. It amaze me to see danish furniture all over the world. For many, this table would just been thrown away, other will see the possibility to reveal the hidden beauty.The design are more or less timeless and blend well with both older and newer furnitures. I'm glad you get rid of those terrible white brackets.
Wow! This piece turned out so beautiful. You are a very talented young woman
Your work + Odie's= lovely furniture.
Thank you so much! I really appreciate that! 😊
You cannot beat natural wood for absolute beauty. Mother nature knows what she's doing.
What an incredible transformation! It took a lot of skill & patience to bring out the beauty of this piece. You're amazing!
Thank you so much!
Perfect Atomic styling at the end Angie, with that lamp and clock!😍PERFECT
Thank you! 😊
It warms my heart every time I see someone rescue a piece of furniture.
I love your work. And that you work with natural woods. The things that cannot be sanded off. But they tell a story of the piece
Wow this video is very timely. I inherited my moms teak furniture and I really need to get some Odies oil lol. Looks amazing.
I’m going to start calling you the Great Wizard!! Just beautiful!!!
Teak is my favorite wood. It's so incredibly beautiful!
Nothing matches the richness of wood treated with care and respect. And so perfect to have a chair that fits perfectly with it!
Gorgeous 😊. When a piece of furniture touches my heart like this does, I know it is special. Thanks for sharing it 🎉
You are so welcome!
Gorgeous! As usual! I like how you take the time necessary for the smallest details to elevate the piece that much more. Like the small discoloration, the wood filler on the edges. You don't leave those things undone like many people would bc it's tedious work. But that's what makes your pieces... masterpieces! Great job!
A quick update from last year, when this video was posted! Meanwhile, Odie's has an improved formula that cures the quickest, therefore allow to cure for 1 to 3 days before you expose to liquids, you can use your piece immediately but don't clean or expose it to liquids until fully cured! And, a good tip you can match your color filler using our stains/ powdered pigments!
Kudos Angie to your amazing work!
I’ve recently also been trying out the pigments for patching as well- trying to cover up irreparable damage. It’s been working well! The pigments have multiple uses and I love them. :-)
Well done, looking great. I too watch Dashner, such a calming voice, as well as informative. Xx
Still one of my favorite pieces you've done on this channel! It's beautiful!
Thank you! Cheers!
I am thrilled by Odies oil, wonderful. Have been hoping for something like that forever.
I'm so glad! Thanks for watching!
I literally have that same chair in my garage waiting to be refinished and I had no idea what to do with it - I do now!😊
Oh my heavens! I often love what you do with refinishing furniture and bringing things back to life (I'm not a MC fan, but you are beginning to turn me into one!). This desk is fabulous! The color of that teak is absolutely gorgeous!!! Terrific job! I agree that a piece that is old shouldn't look absolutely perfect - if it did, it would look fake, imo. If, at my age, I didn't have a few wrinkles I would look fake, right? So why shouldn't it be the same with furniture - it has lived and had a life already and small imperfections give it character and lets the furniture share some of its story with us. Gorgeous job, Angie!
Thank you so very much Gayle! I'm glad I might be changing your mind about MCM too. 😉 I do enjoy a bit of character with my pieces !
WOW!!! Beautiful finish and that rich colour with Odies Oil really is superb! I can appreciate why you love it so much! :-) Beautiful companion set! Thanks so much for sharing with us. :::SmileS:::
Teak is such a beautiful wood, and this desk is just awesome. You did a fantastic job refinishing it, and anyone would be lucky to have this piece in their home!
Oooh I like it sooo much better when the thumbnail doesn’t give away the “after” photo 👍👍👍
Glad you like it!
You are a true genius! What you do with these neglected and damaged pieces of furniture is just amazing. I would trust you to refinish even my most prized antiques. Thank you so much for all that you do!
If some one is in need of a little desk for doing paper work or for a laptop, this is the one for you.
Beautiful finish Angie great job.🤩👍
What you said about the chair actually answered the one question I had about Odie's oil. I was thinking about using it on the cabinet of my 1882 White Sewing machine instead of the Feed and Wax I've been using twice a year for a decade; but it's original finish is in good shape.
I love mid century furniture. Watching you restore these pieces is a real joy.
Oh I'm so glad! Thank you so much for watching!
Beautiful desk, and I think Odie's should sponsor you. You give them a lot of praise.
Thanks so much for watching!
WOW! glory to GOD! This is literally a " HALLALUJA " worthy job! I am absolutely INCREDULOUS!!!! WOWZA! GREAT work! I am going to get some Odie's oil!!!
Insane transformation! That looks FANTASTIC! Once again you have the magic touch!
I had the 2 drawer version of this desk as a kid, I wish I still had it! Outstanding job yet again!
Dashner was the first furniture restoration channel I ever saw. I was hooked. This piece is magnificent. The chair completes it. 👩🍳💋
You did a wonderful job on this piece and chair to go with just amazing.
Wow! And, that chair compliments the desk so well. Looks amazing. I think Odie's oil is just the thing for an old oak dresser I have that needs some loving care.
Wow! This piece came out absolutely gorgeous!!
Wow! Stunning job!
Stunning desk set! Beautiful restoration!
OMG Angie, you did a fabulous job. I love mid-centry Danish Teak pieces.
Thank you so much! 😊
Oh my. What a beautiful desk and chair. Another spectacular rescue.
Wow!!! What an amazing job you did on this piece. I can’t believe it’s the same desk. 😍👏
Wow. Absolutely fantastic
