i think you're going to win, this is superb!
Omg. I’ve seen a LOT of ugly furniture “upgrades” by “civilians” but this is definitely the ugliest. This now gorgeous again piece deserved you coming back into its life. Fabulous job!
You wonder what "improvements" they rejected before deciding that faux brick wallpaper was the best idea!
@rosehughes599 😂😂😂😂😂😂💩😂😂😂😂😂
Thank you 🤩
You didn’t see the upright piano my mom painted and wallpapered in the early ‘70s…
@@janvafa9959 share that gem please 😂😂😂
"I've always wanted a glasstop vanity with faux brick sides and fire engine red drawers!" said nobody, ever.
Lovely restoration of a furniture abomination.
I remember the 60's and 70's very well. Most of it is best not remembered - a lot of avocado green and shag orange carpets that made me ill, even back then. But this is what the best designers were aiming for; a futuristic look with clean lines and functionality. This would look at home in a bay on the S.S. Enterprise! Very well done!
The shag carpeting was excellent when playing with little plastic horses, especially the green carpet. Prarie as far as the tiny toy horses could see😂
Thank you 🖖🏼😂
I remember all the green and orange and dark brown! My parent's bedroom was dark blue shag - thank goodness they didn't have shag all over the house!
I don't know...not sure this would go well with the aesthetic on a space ship. Wait, wrong Enterprise? 🤔🖖🏾
@@Restorology 😂😂😂😂
If I had to pick a project that encapsulated how much you've grown as a furniture artist...this would be it! I love everything about this desk! Wonderful work my friend!
awwww so kind of you Emily 🤩 thanks 😻
You gave this piece its dignity back. I imagine that Travis, wherever he may be, is grateful to you. Gorgeous! just enough brass accents to set this beautiful desk off.
“Dignity” -perfectly said!
🤩
Walnut, walnut, walnut. I am sooo tired of it. I like these restorers, but honestly, have a little imagination!! Does anyone ever. Like any OTHER kind of wood or wood veneer??!! 😖
@@aaabbb8812 Lay down if you’re tired 💁🏻♂️ diet change perhaps?
@@Flippingdrawers Well said! (maybe they should cut dairy from their diet?) 😉🤣
Anywho, I love what you did and blends very well with the rest of that room. This piece is stunning!
I do not care what style it is, this came out beautifully! It was a real eyesore to begin with, but your TLC brought it new life!
This turned out SO well. The black beveled edge was a choice decision. My desk is an old kitchen table. I'm jealous now. 😂
Well, Ive seen comments saying that your dresser was one of the favourites in this challenge so there's that 🤩 and if it works 💁🏼♂️😂
As a mid century lover, I have to admit that you did a fabulous job on this piece, but I also loved the original dresser too. The floating glass shelf was killer imo. None the less I do like the desk and I know you did this for your own personal piece and that's what matters..
I've read through a lot of the Comments and everything I wanted to say has been said already Jay. So, Congratulations on yet another Masterful Makeover, and I hope you do well in the challenge. A win would be so well deserved.
Much appreciated 🥰
The brass rod supports were genius, and look like they’ve always been there. A desk is a much more useful piece of furniture than a vanity. When you first put the top on, I was thinking it didn’t look very mid century, and said to myself, “those edges need to be beveled”…and seconds later that’s what you said! I didn’t think of edging in black, but you’re right - it makes it look thinner, and echos the black at the base. Great piece!
😊 Glad you liked it , Thank you
We had a stereo cabinet from the 70s made of MDF covered in veneer with black edging. This is so much cooler.
The brass rods are perfect. Yes, the black edging was the right choice. Since I grew up with MCM, I don't care for it. But you truly shocked me with the amazing upgrade on it. Glad Hugo was there as your cheerleader to lift your spirits in the tough spots. Now off to see the rest of the lineup.
much appreciated 😻
Absolutely BEAUTIFUL . Travis had his vision and you elevated it to it's perfection.
ha ha 💪🏼thank you
You would never realize this was ever that design abomination someone "transformed" a fairly nice vanity into - very well and nicely done, with a modern interpretation of MCM. I think the elevated desk top is genius as it definitely gives an intentionally airy look to this piece. The brass posts were a nice touch too!
Thank you 🤩
Love the brass "supports" you added under the desk top
I binged all 13. I’m torn between your project and Restorogy’s, both are exceptionally well done. Thanks for spearheading this, what a great way to spend my last day of being 59!
Thank you and yes I think Matt did a cracking job @restorolory
I agree, I am torn between these two as well.
I was voting for @Flippingdrawers until he removed the brick paper. I would have left it on for the win! 😉😅
That is one unique desk. Perfect for you, Jay. So many techniques were used on the desk. I realized at the end that there was space for objects under the desktop, on top of the drawer boxes. So much stylish storage space and worktop space.
Thanks so much! and yes , I love it
That’s lovely! It looks so different now without the paint and wallpaper, with the lovely brass details! You’ve done an amazing job ❤🇬🇧
😻
Jay, that is one of the most beautiful desks I’ve seen! Everything about it is perfect!!!
🥹
I like the black apron smart The creation is as usual amazing
Hard to believe this is even the same piece, there is such a huge transformation. Stunning work!
Thank you very much!
Another wonderful transformation. It's a very special piece, which you can use and be proud of for many years to come.
Thank you so much 😀
It looks nothing like where you started. Thank goodness! Just beautiful. I can't wait to watch all of the rest of the videos.
😻
Jay, you’ve outdone yourself on this one! BEAUTIFUL!!!!
Thanks so much!
This is brilliant! Thank you for giving this lovely thing a better life. Whomever wrecked it needs to take a long, hard look at their life choices.
😂😂😂I will tell the that 😂 and thank you 🙏
Holy smokes, Jay- this is a truly night and day makeover. I’m not usually one to judge what people do with their own things… but what in the hell was that brick wallpaper?!!! 😂😂 Fantastic job.
So kind of you Angie 😻 I love this desk and edited the end of this video at it 🙂
Шикарный стол получился! Вы великий труженик и умелый мастер! Браво!!!❤
The attention to detail is incredible. Massive success!
🥰
I love your very meticulous way of working. Never taking the short cut, never brushing over imperfections, but working away until it is as perfect as it can get. I love what you did with the floating top and the black brim, suits a computerdesk very well. And I really love your quiet way of working and talking in the voice over. You are my favorite furniture restauring channel. I have watched you working away on the curbside and now lokk at your setuo!
I love the one thousand years later - an eternity later 😅😅 great job 👍👍👍
Thank you so much 😀
What an absolute treasure that desk is now. Wonderful job!!!!
I agree 🤩
This has to be one of the most amazing transformations I’ve ever seen. It’s now a truly gorgeous piece of furniture!
🥹🤩🙏
Ugly duckling turned into a gorgeous swan. Wow Jay beautiful. Well done
🥰🤩
Looks fabulous! I never would have thought it could have been restored/renovated to such a high standard.
I am gobsmacked by this transformation. Despite the brick wallpaper, the lines were excellent.
The finished piece is exquisite, and now I have better ideas as to how to restyle my very expensive (but worn) black lacquer bedroom set.
Thank you for the eye candy and inspiration.
A friend from southern France once called a former design in a house before I refinished it with him as You Glee. Spell I said. UGLY,says he. This was the thing before. Now your best companion is Magnifique! I thank you for believing the image you had. And Hugo for his constant help encouraging us all.
Another major win! Congratulations on a superior and well-designed product!
😻
The original hardware looks perfect on your new desk!
Oh, WOW! That’s beautiful! No one would even know it’s the same piece! Bravo!
Amazing! The ugly duck became a beautiful swan. Great job!
WOW. It looks amazing. I'm so glad you kept the original handles and legs. You've given them a new lease of life in themselves as well as being kept as an original feature. Another great project.
A TRULY MAGNIFICENT MID CENTURY MODERN REMAKE REMODEL PIECE...WELL DONE
!!!
🤩
Holy Moly! That turned out nice!
Thank you! Cheers!
WOW! That is Stunning!
Ah, Jay, your creative bent always shines through! None of us could have guessed what the final reveal would be. The color is spot on for MCM, and the floating table top gives tons of eye candy appeal. You're a lucky guy to have this for your new desk. Many thanks to you and to Hugo, your General Manager. Cheers from Oklahoma!!!
Thank you 🤩🐾
WOW! WHAT A UGLY DUCKLING TURNED SWAN PIECE! You always do really excellent work but this time you outdid yourself sir! 🤩🤩🤩
Great job! I enjoyed doing this challenge with you all! 🎉
Thanks Anders 🙂 the pleasure is mine 😉
Oh WOW! Love it!
Beautiful. I realized I need to train my eyes to see what is under all of the “mess”. 🇺🇸.
That brass polish is the same kind my drummer husband uses to polish his cymbals!
Absolutely stunning!!!!
Gorgeous!!!
BEAUTIFUL!!!!!
Wow. Seriously great job. It's so common to remake a vanity into bedside tables. This was a wonderful, unique idea and a fantastic result.
🤩
Wow. What a great transformation.
Well that’s an improvement ❤
Wow! That is awesome!
Breathtaking!
Wow gorgeous!!!
Stunning!
OUTSTANDING!!!
I’m telling you this is the most stunning transformation I’ve seen! You brought this MC vanity back from the dead & turned it into a Beautiful Desk! My Husband who is sadly no longer with us, was a master craftsman woodworker he is applauding you too! Your workshop is the most organized I’ve seen amongst all the YT contributors & I love it! Great job & thank you for not painting this beautiful wood I love the brass tub😂es you used to enhance the floating look & the tasteful black edge to the desk top making it look thinner.. Blessings from Dozer Butter Bean & me in Texas, USA
Wow! What a transformation. That is awesome.

Definitely mid-century, and exquisite! I don't blame you for keeping it for yourself. What a masterpiece!
Gosh, I'd love to be let loose in your workshop to learn how to use all those amazing tools! I nearly didn't watch (but I know you can do miracles) & as ever, this piece is absolutely lovely. The original creator of it would be so proud now
Beautiful, love it!
Bellísimo!!❤
Wow! Fantastic job!
