    Which one was your favorite?

      #4 blew my mind. Such a simple process to restore something that would grace the most elegant of settings. . The Victorian Velvet piece was cool too, even though It's not really my style. Agree with you 100% about supporting small businesses for the upcoming Holiday shopping. I frequent a Mom and Pop (or more accurately, a 'father and son') thrift store that is also a food bank. They source the vast majority of their (often jaw-dropping) inventory from storage facility auctions. It is SO easy finding great stuff--often times new--for gifting. I was also able to completely redo both my living room and library with HIGH quality pieces from that store......for mere pennies on the dollar. Some of them needed a bit of tlc/refurb but that's the fun of it all, right Corey? LOL

      My mother had that exact piece, the second dresser that was in the worst shape, in our dining room forever. Weird to see it again in such bad shape.

    I loved that side board that you both did. Surprisingly I got teary eyed because it reminded me of when my husband and I were stationed at Ft Bliss in El Paso, Tx he had found a sideboard that I needed so badly. On base you could get furniture if you didn't have any and in the warehouse there wasn't one to be found, but he got me one! Where he got it I didn't have a clue, but got me one he did! That was the nicest thing he ever did for me when we were married.

  • @claudiamandini
    @claudiamandini 2 роки тому +1

    If you need to “repair” a glass window like this one, you can use a product called “liquid iron”. It is a paste that dries out, pretending being the iron borders used in the stained glass big windows, used in churches and art works, you just need to secure the pieces not x them to fall off. Then, use this paste to cover the scratches and keep on making other false scratches, so the look of the glass is pretty uniform. You may leave it that way, or precede on to really stain the spaces among the lines made with the paste. You can search for the paste in Michaels or even in Walmart. It comes in a pomade tube with a narrow peak for it to get the look of a vein, when applied.

    Wow!! There wasn't a bad one in the bunch! I'm partial to the piece you made for your family member in the assisted living facility. My parents live in one and I redid an antique entry table for my dad to use as a desk. He is in a wheelchair and the table worked out so well. So, that was my favorite, but I really liked all of them!
