Love your videos - no self promoting bs, pleasant music not overdone, good quality camera work, specific instructions - just a pleasure to watch. Thank you!
Good job! A couple tips from a woodworker.. use a heat gun to take the stickers off, and when using pocket screws, clamp the pieces together to stop them from moving when you drive the screws in.
Women teaching women! Such a wonderful act of caring. My dad, brothers nor husband had the patience to teach me. But I have watched DIY videos and learned to overcome my fears and accomplish my goals. Fearless ladies -- my heroes!
Can I just say I LOVE when you say you’re not sure how to do something but you’re willing to try and figure it out anyway! I love that you’re willing to work with “less desirable” pieces which would take up just as much room at the landfill and in a shorter amount of time. They can still be gorgeous useful profitable pieces. I just snagged my first curb alert 3 drawer bureau so here goes nothin! I want to turn it into an “anything you want it to be” modern cabinet with a new base & legs. Excited!
Back in the day, chests like this cedar one, but usually with a solid lid and not glued on tapestry, were called "hope chests". A young lady would crochet or embroider linens for the home she hoped to someday have. If she was fortunate enough, she would inherit nice linen table cloths or napkins. The bed linens were always new, and she would embroider the trimming on them. 💘
I have a similar piece. It has the same base. Different top. It was the first ever piece of furniture I bought. It was the summer after I graduated. 1993. Lol. I’m handing it down to my daughter. I’ve planned on painting it. But a new base is a great idea! I’m a woodworker and I already have a Kroger jig. So I’m set. I’m super proud of you making your base. Awesome! I love this piece.
NataLee from Designed to the Nines always encourages women to use power tools. She would be so proud of you! I think you did a fantastic job and was really surprised that this was your first time adding wood work to a piece. 💕

I looove that colour! To me it looks more green but a neutral one…if that makes sense. It’s really calming and soft. Congratulations on your first wood working venture. You did great! Those saws scare the jeepers out of me! Beautiful result❤
I really like and appreciate that you went outside of your comfort zone and made that base and took us along for the ride. The base looks very professional and the finished piece looks very smart. Well done you!
This looks exactly like the stuff the DIY wife does. I wonder who did it first. The furniture flipping is becoming like live edge tables. EVERYONE is doing it. Good work.
Thank you so much for this. The fact that you AREN'T talking about how 'easy' the base is to build, is boosting my confidence. I might actually get brave enough to try it now!! 💛
Great job! Pro tips: use clamps to hold pieces to your work table before screwing them together. Once you get a hole in the piece you are screwing to, it’ll be hard to make adjustments without the screw wanting to find the old hole. Also, use a bar of soap to coat your screw threads in. It’ll make the screws go in easier.
Loved the satisfied nod you gave when you knocked off the piece of trim on the bottom! Kudos to you for trying something new. You breathed new life into this piece. It looks tons better.
U’re. Awesome! I started doing this 20 yrs ago, but I can’t do it anymore due to chronic illness that limits my mobility! I so enjoy watching u! This piece is stunning! 💜🥰😻2U!
You did a great job in this one! I think you have opened a whole new world for yourself with the wood build. Looking forward to more masterpieces from you! 💖💖💖
Listen Katie Scott, I know doing something new on camera was nerve racking but I had no doubt you would slay! You are so smart and so pretty and I believe in you. You are the first person to show me how to paint furniture and you give this girl faith that I can do it too.
I was so happy when you just hammer off the top trim. That along with taking the handles off made a world of difference. I feel like you described it best, remove all the things you don't like to start. Even if you don't know what you want to do, sometimes the vision comes after that.
It’s hard to ask top $$$ for “made in Taiwan” particle board 🤷🏻♀️ but it’s still a useful & beautiful piece that I had fun experimenting on 😉 thank you so much for watching!!!
Thank you for sharing your very first experience in building the base. You did a wonderful job Katie. And that colour is a beautiful green. Well done again.
I have a cedar chest from the 70’s and all I’d have to do would put a base on it and I’ve been wanting to try …. You have given me the inspiration to try. Thank you. Love all your videos.
@@czeidman8908 what an odd, gross, random comment... you do realize your not screaming into the wind. That's so rude to say about someone you don't know. Just because your anonymous doesn't mean you have free reign to hurt people... We're adults are we not. Let's not bully.
@@Forever-And.Ever-Amen Sometimes someone just rubs a person the wrong way. C. Zeidman didn't call him names or say disparaging things about him. There was no bullying. They just said her husband puts them off watching that channel. It happens. We're all adults here, I presume. I think we all acknowledge that there are people who appeal to us & those who don't. That's life.
@@md61211 she said he was off putting.. . I'm sorry, didn't realize "off putting" could ever mean something positive. Go ahead... you can agree with her and continue to gossip and bully on an open forum but please.... let's just call it what it is. It's no wonder there's such an issue in schools today if this is how the adults act. I mean "if you don't have anything nice to say then".... you know the rest...
Katie you are a miracle worker! That outdated chest looked like "crap" (excuse the language), but the truth is welcome in Heaven...you completely updated it and even though it was beige in the workshop, it was definitely a dry sage in the house and beautiful, It was!! Girl you are amazing!
Katie, although I am a huge fan of Andrea of DIY Wife, you are second to none. If you lived in my area of the USA, I would be a frequent customer. I love your transformations. And ofcourse your spirit.
I love that you made your own base. So beautiful. I have also wanted to use the diy wife tutorial to try my own base in the future. Great job learning how to use the kraig jig! They are kind of complicated at first! But a very useful tool!
Congrats on that awesome achievement. Such a satisfying feeling to know you’ve made something yourself and figured out how to use new equipment. Awesome result!
I recognized that base the minute I saw it in the thumbnail. Was sooo glad you gave credit to DIY Wife, whose videos I also watch (but not as much as I watch yours) & whose signature base was the one you used. Was really pleased you gave her that shout out. Love your channel even more now (is that actually possible?).
Always gotta give credit where credit is due! It’s super important to me to build up and shout out all the genius ideas that come out of our furniture community.
I wish I would of followed my heart and took wood working instead of home economics in high school. But I was a girl growing up in the 70's and when I mentioned to my friends I wanted to take wood working all of them laughed at me. So I learned how to cook, which I hate to do! But now I pass time by watching youtube videos and learning from people like you. Your piece came out beautiful and am inspired to do what I always knew was in my heart to do. Thanks for sharing.
I have a bench in our bedroom that is in need of a make over. This just gave me the push. I am doing my dining room set over… chairs are done. Your coffee table makeover was amazing!!!!
Omg. 10:33. Same I am a painter, I’m kind of afraid of power tools. But I have her video saved in a list. Thank you so much for doing this, maybe I can move past my fear. Because I LOVE these bases!!!
Wonderful results! You are blessed to have the garage space and compressor for spraying your finishes, but exploring outside your comfort zone is the real victory!
1. You are so funny. I love your personality. 2. You explain things so well! 3. Your show is SO great. I look forward to it every week!!!!!! Thank you for posting. I really appreciate it.
Hi Katie, I loved watching the transformation of this piece, it is absolutely amazing! I think the color is more green than beige. I'll be joining you on the daring task of building your own base.

Also teaching man jajaja, i do furniture and i always see her vudeos to know stuff i dont know and ofcourse to se all the beauty things she does.
Same here darling....power too the women 😘
Man here, I refurnish furniture.
So proud of you Katie!!!! Job well done! That chest totally looked taupe in your garage, but inside the house, it is definitely green!!

You’re hands-down the best at re-styling and transforming pieces. Amazing transformation!
Ok… I’d say it’s creamy gray green! It’s lovely and that color would be a lovely wall color!
You can really see the sage green undertone of the paint in the bright, natural light. Great job! I love this piece!
I have a similar piece. It has the same base. Different top. It was the first ever piece of furniture I bought. It was the summer after I graduated. 1993. Lol. I’m handing it down to my daughter.

Oh yeah.... I see green.
Way to go, you built that base like a pro! And of course the transformation is beautiful as always!
WOW!!! This went from a frumpy old bench, to a very classy bench. I have a dresser that could use the beautiful modern legs, so thank you, mucho!
NataLee from Designed to the Nines always encourages women to use power tools. She would be so proud of you! I think you did a fantastic job and was really surprised that this was your first time adding wood work to a piece. 💕
Well done Katie!!! I love Andrea at DIY Wife as well… she is absolutely delightful!
Sincerely, Susan
Claims not to be good at something and then knocks it out of the park! Another beauty.
On the contrary, I think this means you really are a woodworker. Beautiful work!
I love Saturdays with k.scott! Always so fun to watch you flip furniture and see your designs come to life!
What a terrific reinvention of a cedar chest. Super impressive.
Congratulations on the DIY Wife inspired new base legs --- it looks superb --- the whole piece does!!
The dried sage color is perfect for the chest!!

The amount of detail in this video is amazing....
You were as clear as day in explaining your processes. No worries.
Honestly kudos to use for trying something new it’s really scary going outside of your comfort zone It looks absolutely beautiful

Congratulations on your first wood working venture. You did great! Those saws scare the jeepers out of me!

I love Andrea too. She has made me want to try this. I’m so glad you tried first. 😂
ABSOLUTELY BEAUTIFUL! And I’m super proud of you as well for trying something new!!!

Thank you so much for this. The fact that you AREN'T talking about how 'easy' the base is to build, is boosting my confidence. I might actually get brave enough to try it now!! 💛
Amazing transformation, you are amongst the best of the furniture flippers and I am learning so much from you. Thank you from the UK.
She truly is, isn't she!!

Congrats for building the new base all by yourself! You have a lot to be proud of!

Great job, it turned out beautiful! I have no doubt that you can continue learning the carpentry skills to enhance your flips. ⭐
It's high quality,now because of how you transformed it! I think 325.00 is definitely a fast sale for what you did. You deserve to ask more girl
Yippee Katie!!! Must feel so good to get that base built all by yourself! Another awesome job!
Usually I don't love furniture with green color but this piece looks extraordinary and it is real precious after the refurbish! 👍👍👍
I was so happy when you just hammer off the top trim. That along with taking the handles off made a world of difference. I feel like you described it best, remove all the things you don't like to start. Even if you don't know what you want to do, sometimes the vision comes after that.
Sage as in the plant is a pale dusky green so I think the colour is spot on
Well done Katie with your new skills
YESSSS !! Ever since I've subscribed to your channel, I've been hoping you'd start using power tools.. You've totally got this !! Legs look great !!
That color is a sage green , starts off as beige , then it turns green ! Good Job !
Admire your making that base! Love that feeling of doing something you've never done before and loving the final outcome! Whoot!
That was an incredible transformation and I feel that it's a steal at that price?!? Excellent job!
It’s hard to ask top $$$ for “made in Taiwan” particle board 🤷🏻♀️ but it’s still a useful & beautiful piece that I had fun experimenting on 😉 thank you so much for watching!!!
I agree. People do pay to get quality, but also pay to get style. That's a super stylish piece. She should up her price!!!

Absolutely Beautiful!! You do such great work ! So talented!
It definitively looks more green to me than brown. Beautiful transformation
I love your work- wish I lived closer so I could buy some of your pieces! Keep doing what you do 🤩 - a bit of love from Cali
Had me on the edge of my seat when you made the base using the Gregg jig!
I’m so proud of you! Your vision is unbelievable! I love what you did!
Wow. I always hated those tacky benches. It looks stunning. Bravo 👏 👏 👏

We are converting a school bus and the kreg jig is a total game changer! Looks great! You could've even kreg jigged the base to the cabinet!
This turned out so stunning! I love the color and I love the base you made! So inspirational! My favorite furniture flipper ❤️❤️❤️
Making a Chamfer at the downside of the legs helps preventing the wood to tear out at the brainwood. Greetings from Germany 😊✌🏻
So proud of you, friend! Killed it!
The furniture flipping community (or FFC as I like to call it) is so friendly, supportive and welcoming! Its It's refreshing to see this on UA-cam !
I wonder if you sold this. I made one exactly like it, can't sell it.
Like Christina said, You killed it! WhooooHooooo!!!

Like you I would have liked woodworking better, but in those days we weren't allowed the option.
Several years later, girls were given the choice.
That looks great! I have a chest to make-over, so you gave me great inspiration 👍🏼 thanks
Definitely better with out hardware. Great job Katie!❤️
LOVE this

Love it! Funny how beige while painting but definite date when done and inside! Love the natural base!!
That red oak lumber looks wonderful as a base, especially with the natural finish.
Very nice - leaving your comfort zone is how you grow … good for you
Katie, you are a magician. Absolutely stunning.
That base is wicked, well done. DIY Wife and your channel are my favourites.
Definitely Green. Sage green. Very beautiful color.
The breakdown of time and costs was real interesting too, thanks for doing that !!
I’m so proud 🥲 of u mama I’m over cringing over the tools but you gave me confidence 💕💕😭😭 God bless u 💜🙌🏽 great video
Beautiful piece of furniture. It is definitely a peaceful shade if green.
Love it. Beautiful. GREEN undertone for sure. Lovely.
Awesome Katie!! 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽 I’m a huge fan of @DIY Wife and her Base. I think everyone should have a Craig Jig in their toolbox.
You are amazing at repurposing furniture Katie.
Brava! Brava! Great job on the oak base. The final result is so sophisticated and modern.
I absolutely adore this piece, well done! And the colour is the most perfect neutral with a twist you could ever find :)
Hi Katie, I loved watching the transformation of this piece, it is absolutely amazing! I think the color is more green than beige. I'll be joining you on the daring task of building your own base.
Such a beautiful piece, we (women) can do anything we put our mind to...You have encouraged me to buy a table a table saw and build my media wall>>>>
love you I've refinished furniture for over 50 years and you're the best I've seen on you tube
Kudos to you for working outside your comfort zone. Another job very well done.
