Вставка
- Опубліковано 4 жов 2024
- Left by the side of the road by some college kids who were moving home, this colonial style table was headed to the dump, for sure. But with her quality construction, she was absolutely worth saving! Come with me as I take a relaxing approach to this makeover - inspired by the "Coastal Grandma" trend, and with a dash of The Queen's Gambit, we'll refresh this little table into such a beauty, you won't believe your eyes.

Hooray! She's back!
😊❤
What a perfect game table for a screened porch, better yet cottage by the sea
Thanks Patricia, I agree!! In my fantasy, John and I throw it into the back of the car and take it out to our fantasy beach house. 😂🐚💙
Great 007 music/acting at the beginning! Aren't you CLEVER!!
LOL, thanks!! Apparently SHE is an international WOMAN of mystery! 😂
Oh wow! It really came alive again and once again the correct handle changes everything
Many thanks! Yep - "the power of the pull". 🤓💙👍
Omg your back,iv missed seeing your videos,..idk if I could attend the live because we are at work..but I will see the video on break..🤗🤗🤗
Thanks Tonia!
Ceramic pull!! And Checkers!!!😁 Average Jane here lol.💗 It turned out beautiful!!! The color is so nice!
Hooray, me too!! Thanks so much Selina, so glad you liked it!
Forgot to say previously…I like both drawer pulls. Wooden for Autumn and Winter. Ceramic for Spring and Summer. Then your shelves could have seasonal decor too. Have a wonderful day. The wait for your videos is always worth it. 🐞
Thanks for sharing!! Love that idea. 😊
I so look forward to your videos….entertaining and instructional . I recently lost my 93 year old Mother…that piece in its original finish was all through her house…good memories ❤️
I'm so sorry for your loss, Carolyn. Yes, I think many of us remember this type/style of furniture! Thanks so much for sharing. 😊❤️🙏
Stumbled on your channel today. Can I just say....You. Are. ABSOLUTELY FABULOUS.
Wow, thank you, Kathy! 😊❤️🙏
Andy, Heywood-Wakefield are very much still in existence having made furniture following the times.
Showing the quality of their furniture and the love put into it by the local people working from them.
When they started, you could have found members of a whole family working for them.
If you Google them you can see some of their mid century pieces going right back to much older pieces.
You might even be able to get an idea of the age of your piece.
Remember, anything over 100 yrs is considered an antique.
I'm so glad you rescued it.
I watch you from Northern Ireland, but missed some episodes, can't watch tv lying down when I'm unwell.
Catching up. 🥰
Thanks so much for sharing that, Janet - that is so great to know! So glad you are catching up, and wishing you the very best of health. 😊🙏♥️
Same here. Great idea for this little gem. So happy for a new fable.
Thanks, Tamara! 💙🐚♟
Oh I love it, I love the blue handle too 👍
Thanks so much, Wanda! Me too. 💙
The ceramic pull all day long! Love the rice paper.
Hooray! Thanks for that feedback Vicky - so great to hear. 😊💙
Love the blue handle!
Yay, thanks! 💙
Love this paint wash technique. It creates the feeling of driftwood.
Agreed! Thanks so much, Lisa. 😊
I love how this trash table turned out to be a sophisticated game table. The ceramic handle is perfect!
Thanks JoAnn, LOVE how you framed that!!! 🤓💙🙏
So glad you came back with that ceramic pull, it just topped it off! Stunning!
Hooray, thanks so much!
Welcome back!! Don't stress over the horde LOL Consider it job security hahaha
CERAMIC pull all day long. And I think it will help to get the amount you are looking for. Great table
Lol, thanks so much!! Love that point of view. 😅🤓🙏
I love your chess table. Given the choice of drawer pulls, I choose the fancy one. Thank you for another relaxing furniture fable.
Hooray! Many thanks, Gina. 😊💙
I love the transformation the wash did to the style of the table.
I definitely prefer the wooden pull because it lets the other details you added to the drawer have more focus.
Awesome! Thank you, Bozhi - I love your insight!
I painted a checkerboard table for my husband and grandson years ago. I embellished it with their favorite team colors and logos. Then I managed to find an old box of wooden checkers, original box, too. That was the icing on the cake for me. Fun project! I like yours, too. 🙂♟️
Wow, that sounds amazing! Love it. Thanks!
Love the final result … wooden pull is best IMO!!
Yay! Many thanks, Joyce. 😊❤️
Thank you for sharing your talents, not only with your furniture creations, but with your wonderful stories! I look forward to your videos!!!!! God bless you and please keep doing what you do! ; )
Thank you so much, that is so encouraging to hear!! 😊❤️
Ceramic pull. Small wheels to highlight game function allows table to be pulled anywhere with ease. Checkers!
Thanks Kali, and what a cool idea! 🤓👍
Keep doing what your doing great work
Thanks so much Paul, great to hear that support!
I absolutely love watching you make something beautiful out of something that might have ended up in a land fill. It’s so inspiring!
Thanks so much, that's so great to hear!
Yes Your Back!! I missed you and your fables and furniture and Of course The Queen as well...and Who could forget Biff (was that his name in one of your fables?) 😂😂❣️..love the table🥰👍
Thanks so much, Debra, so glad to be back!! Yes, Biff was quite the guy - a really handful, ahem, if I remember correctly! 😂 So glad you enjoyed. 🤓💙🙏
You always go the extra mile and then some! I love the fact that it is a gaming table - and with the drawer for the pieces? So smart!
I hope June brings some R&R for you!
Thanks so much, Dana!!
Oh the Fable was FAB!!!
HOORAY!!! Thanks so much. 🤓💙🙏
How enthralling a story. Thank you. And I could do this for just such a table.
Yay, thanks Nancy!
I want to be just like you!! I love this table and I love your work!!
Aw, too sweet!! Many many thanks. 🤓❤️🙏
So glad you're back! and ceramic pull is my preference, but both look good depends on your personal vibe,
Thanks so much, Jane!! I'm with you - liking both, depending. 🤓👍
Have a gig this morning, so I'll miss it live, but can't wait to watch! Like all your fans, I'm so glad you've had time to make a new video!!

Definitely the blue & white handle. A fun piece with class!
I love that one too. Thanks so much!!
I really like the blue ceramic handle! Adds just a little sparkle.
I agree! Many thanks, Janet, 😊
Adorable as usual. 🌼
Thanks so much, Martha! 🤓💙
SO happy to see you again! Beautiful piece!
Thank you so much, Kelli! Happy to be here again!
My fav is the ceramic pull. Great job on the table!
Awesome! Thank you!
Amazing. I wished I lived closer so I could purchase one of your pieces. You are a true artist.
Thank you very much! I've been asked a lot about shipping lately - I'm thinking it's perhaps something I'll look into. 😊🙏
Good to see you back!
Thanks Cherilyn!
Love it ! I found a broken down, oval topped table with beautiful inverted bobbin legs. Painted the body a very
,
Oops...cont.....very deep teal. Stained top with dark gel stain and added teal checkerboard. Aged it all with blended dark wax. SOLD !
Thanks so much!
Oo, that sounds so cool! And encouraging that it sold...🙏🙏🙏💙💙💙🤓🤓🤓
I love the little table make-over. I do love ceramic anything, including that drawer pull, but I must admit I think I prefer the beachy vibe of the wooden one in this case.
Cool, thanks so much Marilyn!
Well, you had my attention at "100% linen" Well done! Oh, I like the ceramic pull!
Lol, YAY! Thanks so much. 🤓💙
The ceramic pull just made it pop... especially with the blue side draws in blue!
Great to hear that! Thanks so much!
I prefer the wooden pull. It is a touch of rustic/masculine that balances the rice paper. I love this! Sanding down some of the side rice paper was genius!
Thanks so much!! Love that insight.
Turned out so pretty 🤗
Thanks so much, Gina!
I love it !!! How clever to make a chess table That coastal decision was spot on
Thank you!!
I'm so happy you're back!! I've been hoping for a new video. Your videos bring me such joy😄
I'm so glad! Thanks you for saying so, Kimbra!!
Agree 100%!
it's adorable! I love the easy going vacation mode look! If I had a beach cottage i'd snatch it up!! Thanks for another fun half hour Andy!
Yay, thanks so much!
Absolutely love the finish and fun chest board! Also the analogy
Yay, thanks so much!
Love the table, so happy to have you back again!
Yay, thank you!
Love your character of the
Lady sipping on Martini playing chess with you! Gorgoeous job on your refinishing the table and chess board on the top!
Thanks so much! And SHE will be thrilled to hear that! 😂🙏❤️
Now you’ve given me the idea to turn a small table like this into a cribbage board table! Thanks for the awesome inspiration!
Oo LOVE that idea!! You are very welcome, Kimmie - best of luck with your project, and thanks so much!
Yay! You have a new video out, they’re always such fun to watch!
You did a beautiful job on the table. Thanks for sharing.
Thanks so much, Paula! So lovely to hear. 😊❤️🙏
It’s so refreshing! I like the wood handle a little better. It fits the casual “vibe”.
Thank you!! I agree - very modern/fresh/casual.
Wow, what a nice job! Indeed beachy. Love the rice paper and the ceramic blue and white knob. I love the music you select --- it embodies creative energy. Very relaxing and lovely result all the way around.
Thank you so much, Virginia! So happy to hear that. 😊
I enjoyed this so much! I did prefer the blue and white handle but the wooden pull looked good also. Great story, production and table!🥰
Thanks so much!
Loved the ceramic one! Love games, period! Lovely work! Lovely style!
Thanks so much! 😊 Great feedback - truly appreciate that!

Yay! Thanks so much!! Right? Such a neat effect. 😊
I love the ceramic hardware.

The blue 💙 handle blow me away!
Hooray! Thanks!!
That little table is beautiful, I have a thing for little tables. My favorite pull is the blue and white
Yay! Thanks so much Angela. 😊
Was delighted when I saw there was a new video! The little table has been given new life! Of the two I prefer the ceramic handle, but can see a not-too-fussy, solid metal one working as well.
Thanks so much, Carrie! Yes, a modern metallic pull would be great too!
Perfect. I love your sassy alter ego. This was great timing. So much terrible going on right now. Your videos not only show us your talent and humor, they relax us and take us to s place of much needed beauty and joy❤❤
Thank you so much for that - makes me very happy to hear. 🙏❤️
Glad you are back. The blue pull for sure
Thank you, Chalma!! 😊💙
Happy to see you back. Checkers and ceramic but all is good either way.
Thanks Shirley, great feedback!!
What a wonderful surprise this episode was! I was just thinking that we hadn't seen a new episode in a while. Nice to see your smiling face.. I'm a checkers girl who loved the ceramic handle and the sanded back drawer sides.
Thank you so much! Love that feedback. 😊💙
Chess definitely! I like both pulls. It is a very good redo of a not so interesting piece. As always, your presentation is the highlight of your show! Can't wait for the next one!
Thanks so much, Leisa - and well said about this very ubiquitous piece! Looking forward to bringing more next week. 🙏❤️
The blue ceramic pull is perfect.
Thanks Lynn! 😊💙
I'm so glad you're back too. I missed you! That little game table is perfection. You could sell it 10 times over here in New England. Whoever buys it will enjoy it for sure. Thank you for another great furniture fable. ❤️
Thank you, Ann! That's great to hear! 😊🙏
Brilliant!!! Inspired!!! Love the concept, both the finishes and the gaming And it's chess, of course. Hope it sells readily. A bargain at 195

I was so excited when I got a notification that you had just put up a post. As usual you are amazing...just one talented lady.
Wow, thank you so much, Donna!!
I love the ceramic pull and a game of checkers
Thanks for that feedback, Joanne!
I grew up in a house filled with Heywood Wakefield in that pattern and am flipping a few of them, including the little sister to this table, but it only has one shelf and is wider. Love this look, love the blue pull best.
Oh wow, that is so cool!! Yes, I think I know that little sis table you're talking about. So glad you liked the look! 🤓💙
It looks so nice and I love the blue pull. Glad your back.
Thank you so much!
Yay! You’re back! Not missing this for the world! ♥️♥️♥️♥️
Yay! Thank you! ❤️❤️❤️
I thought the same thing - threw in some frozen pizzas for the kids and camped out in my car to watch it lol. Hey, mama needs some uninterrupted “self care” time :). Great to see you back!

Bravo Andy! It's great to see you again. That little gem came out beautifully! As for checkers or chess, I stink at both. I'm more of a backgammon kind of gal. Can't wait to see your next adventure.
Many thanks, Rhonda!! I'm not too great either - more of a cards gal. 🤓
Lol- I needed the laugh from the stolen painting from the Louvre!
😂👩🎨😂
ceramic pull, all day long. so good to have you back :)
Thanks so much, Tawney! 😊💙

Hope you deserved your well earned break - we all need them. Lovely to see you back though. I loved this, colours and decoupage beautiful. I liked the blue and white handle. Wendy (North Wales, UK)
Thank you so much, Wendy! 😊🙏❤️
this gave me an idea for a old white laminate nightstand I have, that I was already going to paint and give to a family member.
Oh I'm so glad!! 🤓💙
Ceramic pull. A stunner!
Yay, thanks so much!
I was so happy to see a new episode! Love the wood pull personally. Thank you for sharing your beautiful soul with us. Love your videos!
