- This Victorian antique piece was in such a state when I bought it & arrived with a lot of challenges to solve!
In this vid I show you how I tackled those challenges, including prep, peeling veneer and potential lead poisoning!
I also had a lot of fun creating the perfect purple and smoky blend, for the perfect Victorian fairytale finish.

It's your piece of furniture, your piece of art. Don't ever listen to people who say otherwise. If they don't like the way a piece is handled they should just keep it to themselves. It's beautiful and amazing.❤
I have no problem with differences of opinion, or healthy debates, just not rudeness 😅 thank you so much for your kind comment though and I'm glad you like it 🥰❤️
Absolutely love this, esp the distressed gold leaf application. Dreamy and sumptuous!
Thank you! I'm so pleased you like it 🥰
The piece looks so pretty, I don’t understand why people are so upset, aren’t they aware you are a furniture artist.
Thank you Carol! I think some people are upset because it is an antique, but they don't understand much passed that in terms of it's value and the damage on it🙂
You are a very talented artist, doing a project you want to update and create. They have NO RIGHT to verbally abuse you online. They are lonely, troubled humans!!
Ah thank you so much and I agree. There's nothing wrong with a difference of opinion, just in the way it is expressed 🙂
The colors are perfect and your vision to age this piece Is lovely
Thank you so much Christine! ❤️
Absolutely gorgeous. You are so creative and daring. I adore your art.
That's so kind and you always make me smile, thank you 🙂❤️

Thank you Linda... wise words for sure 🥰
Such an absolutely beautiful result, really stunning 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
Thank you so much 😘
Beautiful! Great job!
Thank you! 😊❤
You made the piece look stunning! Don't listen to the people criticizing you. ❤
Thanks so much Tracey! The criticism is fine my issue is just more with how people express themselves online & I just wanted to be honest in that as I know other furniture artists experience the same! ❤
Beautiful! Love it, olde worlde and purple so lovely! Forget the haters. Its a free world you can paint it if you want. 🤗I think it now is the way it was supposed to be ! Thanks for sharing!
Thank you so much lovely. I'm so glad you think that! And don't worry, I don't pay much attention to them, I just like to be honest in what can be experienced as a furniture Painter sometime. Have a lovely day 😘
Amazing !! You have crazy talent!! ❤️
Ah I appreciate that so much Kelly... thank you 🥰
Wow! What an interesting piece of furniture. I did see this on your Instagram so had to look it up here. I just love it. I does have this magical vibe to it. I could just see this on a movie set for Wizard of Oz of Cinderella with a witch making their magic brews! And love your more vibrant purple inside. Of course it has to be purple. Those mirrors are so cool.
Thank you so much! And yeeeess... Wizard of Oz definitely! That was my favourite film as a kid 😘
@@jodieflavell Oh yeah, as an adult too! I took a mythology class in college and my final essay was to pick a hero or heroine so I picked Dorothy in the Wizard of Oz. Nobody else picked a female. It's such a classic and the perfect Heroine story.
OMGoodness!!! I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE this piece!! Your art is so inspiring. And yeah, ignore the haters - haters gonna hate and what they really are is jealous! Victorian antique/distressed is so what I love and... that Dixie Belle Amethyst paint - oh wow! That color is to die for. Thank you so much for sharing your technique and your art. Sending love from Montana, USA!
Thank you so much Gina! That means a lot 🥰
The Victorians loved their luxurious colours & I thought Amethyst would be perfect for that, so I'm glad you liked that too! 😘
Absolutely gorgeous 🖤
Thank you ❤️❤️
Sorry people were hateful! It was a beautiful piece of furniture before you painted it, however I think it’s so much more beautiful since you painted it! I think you did a beautiful job and personally I think it needed to be painted! Unfortunately, people can be mean for ridiculous reasons! Thank you for sharing your art!!!
Ahh thank you so much for saying that... differences of opinion are totally fine and debates can be healthy, it's just the way people express themselves online can be sh*tty sometimes I guess!
I'm glad you like the piece though and the final outcome 🥰
@@jodieflavell I agree different opinions and healthy debates can be good and should be good. I also agree that people can be sh*tty online! They hide behind a computer and insult people and I think it’s very sh*tty! I love the way you express yourself through your talent and I appreciate it! Keep doing your art because it’s beautiful and it’s a healthy way to express yourself!!! ❤️🙏
Holy guacamole!!! Your stuff is just STUNNING!!! I just walk around my house watching ur vids and just groaning lol! Sooooo niiiice urrrrgh!!!
Ha thank you Kara!! Really glad you're enjoying them! It means a lot. Have a lovely weekend 😘❤️
It turned out absolutely stunning, Jodie!🤩🤩🤩
Thanks lovely! 😘😘
Such an elegant transformation Jodi...I'm sorry you have to deal with internet trolls and just plain ugly hearted souls....I absolutely love how you edited and the music Soo fitting for such a regal work of Art 🥰👍❣️
Thank you Debra! So glad you liked the editing and final outcome!! Ahh and they're just a given on the Internet these days, but what matters more is people like yourself are enjoying the vids 😘
@@jodieflavell aww ..yes I agree ...Focus on The positive Vibes..in my many years of Existence I've learned most times when negative people rear their heads Is Mostly Kuz They Want What YOU'VE Got...Hope this gives you a giggle .Have a wonderful and Creative Day my dear🥰🙌🙌
Jodie, that is absolutely stunning! The colors and the gold made that a beautiful piece again and you brought her back to life. Think of it; there she was covered in dust and junk and you saved her! 🥰🥰🥰 I must try the dixie shine, I love that you don't have all the speckles and waste of a regular gold leaf, simply lovely. Also adore your music - PERFECTION (as always, my friend). xo
Thank you Cat, that means a lot! And exactly! I almost missed it myself when I was in the shop & was so pleased to have found it... thanks for the sweet comment ❤
It's gorgeous!
Thank you Jane! ❤️
Stunning piece
Thank you 🥰🥰
I absolutely love what you've done! It's beautiful 💜💜💜💜
Thank you so much!!
Stunning!!! Just stunning. As far as the negative comments go, just block them. As you said so not worth engaging with them.
Thank you! Totally agree! No reasonable discussion to be had with them, so blocking is the best way to go! ❤️
I used a soft nail brush to rub the gold foil on, it worked great
Ohhh that's such good advice! I'm going to try that next time, thank you! ❤
It's beautiful Jodie 🤩
Thank you so much lovely 😘
That is so beautiful 😍
Thank you Genie 🥰🥰
Too pretty!
Thank you! 🥰
Stunning 🌹🌹🌹🥰
Thank you Rochelle 🥰🥰❤️
It’s absolutely beautiful! Even if it was worth millions we can paint it! People can just be mean :(
Thank you Wendy, that means a lot! And I agree! I feel like there is a real lack of understanding with some people around the benefits of painted furniture too!
Great choice of colours and I love the final result however I personally wouldn't have painted it. Not because it was an antique or anything lol I have no hesitation of doing what I want to the furniture I own ;) Besides, it's just paint for heavens sake lol. I just liked the original wood and I'm currently at the stage where I'm looking for a challenge to repair veneers and such. Regardless, it's easy for randoms to be a jerks on youtube while hiding behind a computer. The hard part is posting a video you edited after slaving over a piece of furniture you worked on. Keep on doing what you love, read the comments and ignore the rude nasty Trolls that have nothing to lose. Xo
Thank you Diane... I'm always open to differences of opinion if done respectfully 🙂 I did think about restoring it and did consider how replacing the peeling veneer at the bottom of the piece a good challenge. However I still don't think it would have had the same value as it being painter, I guess it just depends how much if a "wood" purist a person is.
Good luck with your challenge! It's always good to try new things 🙂
Ohmygoodness Jodie, this piece turned out so beautifully! I love what you did with it.
For some reason I have been unsubscribed from your channel? Anyway, I’m back and its so good to see you!
Thank you so much Kate! Hmm I have no idea why, it's so easy to accidentally press buttons on my phone though I find 😂
Eye candy my friend. Hope is warmer there then here in Tennessee ❤
Thank you Cassandra. Spring is just peeking it's head here at the moment, so hopefully warmer days to come 🙂
I’m sorry some ppl give u a hard time, the haters! It’s a shame their lives r so miserable they take it out on ur beautifully done work!
Thank you so much Mary! The haters just need to learn how how express an opinion respectfully 😂 but I agree!!
The engraving is pretty cool! It looks like Roman Numerals XXVI = 26 in Arabic numbers, I'm not saying for certain that's what it is just that it could be. The finished product is beautiful!
Thank you Pamela! The numbers are interesting for sure! I thought maybe it was someone's age or date? Who knows!
that piece is crying out for paint, no one would want it if they were not painting it but you can see what it can become.
Lovely unusual piece beautiful results
I agree Susan... antiques don't always equate to value! Thank you so much... really pleased you liked the outcome 😘
I was always under the impression that you want to put a stain blocker on furniture before painting no need in this case?
I would only use a stain blocker if I was painting in a light colour & I was sure the wood was oily enough to bleed through 🙂
You gave that piece of furniture a brand new life, one of pride of placement and the subject of future family squabbles. Beautiful and inspiring work! ✨️ ❤️ 👏 🎉
That's very kind thank you! It's already waiting to go to it's new home & that makes me happy 🥰
That piece was made for you!! From your custom color to highlighting the carving♥️
It’s elegant and beautiful 😻
Thank you Kimberly! Really glad you like it! 🥰❤️
What did you use to clean it x
I like to use Dixie Belle's White Lightning 🙂 x
Great makeover but there's nothing fairytale about it. It's gothic
Thanks Debbie... the original FairyTales by the Brothers Grimm were influenced by gothic literature... you're probably thinking more a long the lines of Disney🙂
Kind of creepy?
Ha! If you think back to British Victorian times... it was kinda gothic and creepy 🤷🏻♀️, but in a cool way😉
