Bold choice and it WORKS! Everyone always wants to "save the wood". I say "do whatever you choose so that you can enjoy it!" Great video!
This is so random, but the more I watch your channel, the more I appreciate that you are unapologetically who you are. I like that you are fun, quirky, and you fully embrace who you are. You're setting a great example for girls and boys who watch you.
Thank you that means a lot
This totally broke my heart! It was so beautiful I love the look of natural wood, to me it brings in nature..ugh my heart!
Oh no, the wood was lovely!
although i love the finish look, i have to say that this video broke my heart 💔 that piano has such a beautiful wood and it was in such a great shape! 😭
I understand what you're saying completely but she brought life back into it with how beautiful it is.
Yes, I agree. The wood was so beautiful.
I absolutely agree with the people saying choose whatever makes you smile - you truly breathed new life and character into a piece of furniture with style. Looks beautiful Elle!
I didn’t realize people would be so split about this! I love it. You did an amazing job!
The boys are very cute😊
Came out great Elle! I personally prefer the wood it gives character, but it’s all preference.
I had mixed feelings like a lot of other people, but it makes you happy that's what counts x
New fan 🎉 I'm painting my piano🎉
You did an amazing Job, Elle. My choice is the orginal wood grain, but to each her own. I kept thinking someone through the years will be DIY back yo original, that the circle of life. Same as Sourdough and Mcrame is resurging now.
This is exactly what I was looking for! I have a very similarly shaped piano in a much darker finish (no longer shiny) that is making a corner of my livingroom very dark. I am currently using the Annie Sloane chalk paint to transform outdoor Muskoka (Adirondack) chairs and have used chalk paint in my kitchen, so I think I'm ready to tackle the piano. Thanks for this, and I love the taupe...it's very clean and classy.
Gives me hope to try it!
And the boys that was so sweet!!!!!! Coan is sooooo big!!!!!! Hugs to the family!!!!!!.
I’m all for painting wood UNLESS it’s that gorgeous honey tone that your piano was. 😔. However, you did a nice job painting it. Taking your time was the key. Ok, Elle, no more painting over beautiful honey colored wood tone pieces. 😝. As usual, I love your videos!!!! ❤️.
LOVE this transformation! So simple but makes such a big impact! 🙌
It really does!
Ah it looks great! Good work. Oh my goodness the boys are too cute, Cohen is just 😂😂
So glad you took the plunge! Follow. That. Heart. ❤️
We upcycled an old fireplace and now it's one of my favourite things! Great job!
It turned out beautiful but I have to say my favorite part of the video is when your boys made their debut 😂 I laughed so hard at their harmless goofing around!
Definitely love a good diy! There is something so therapeutic about getting to create and then enjoy a finished product. Loved the look of the piano!
Both the before and after are so so stunning. I love this
We remodeled out house and my grandma’s old piano does not fit in. I can not bring myself to get rid of it. I’m so glad I found this!. This is exactly what I’m going to do. Even the color will be perfect.
I personally prefer a nice old wood piano and I think it looked really nice in your home, but you did do a nice job! And at the end of the day, my feelings are... whatever will make you feel inspired to play it!
Anyone else here from the future, trying to scrape white paint of gorgeous wood pieces? 😅♥️
I had so many 1:18 moments in the last couple of weeks, going places in my apartment where I hadn't been in a loooooong time. (Paint seems fantastic.)
Me too!!! Satisfying to clean it out though right?!
@@elle.lindquist Sometimes even the highlight of the day.
Save the wood yes but this was more aesthetically pleasing. Loved it! Id totally do
This because i have ocd and I have modern interior and I want my piano to be lookin like the final result
To be honest, I thought this would look great afterwards, but I think it fell a bit flat. It’s too blended. Perhaps painting the inset where the sheet music goes would make it pop a bit? A bold black is what I would do. But if you like it then 👌🏼
Super nice job. That was a big project. I love the turnout.
Fun to watch.
Gorgeous! I know the feeling of why did you do that? We had an older home before this with tons of wood all the trim doors was the old wood and I painted it all white, the whys did not help but at the end of the day what YOU love is what matters! Also time to paint more trim that’s long needed painting in our new home thanks for the painting motivation! Haha
Looks fantastic and more in line with your home decor.
Love the transformation!! well done!
So glad you like it!
WOW Elle You really outdid yourself I mean you do all the time everything that you touch you do a beautiful job but this By far Is absolutely exquisite . you've brought it up many times in videos That you thought it was a eyesore. Deftly not anymore besides being beautiful...
Did you paint the back of it I’m thinking of painting myself but no shows whether or not to paint the back sending love🥰🥰
Looks great, I like the paint. It goes better in the room. 👍
Love the video and the background music, straight to the point and entertaining as well 👍
great job... glad I watched this .. I'm about to use Annie Sloan on my old piano... this helped a ton! your little helpers are also adorable!
Beautiful and great job!
wonderful !!!
I love the paint job!
Wow, fantastic job! It looks so good Elle. I enjoy watching your vlogs. The music you apply to your vlogs is neat. I like the insert "curiosity" part. Made me smile. Have a great day!!
Great job!!! looks beautiful a clean simple look with your scan design. Elle your boys are so handsome. Love your videos!!!
Wow, amazing transformation!
I think the green would have been bomb But the lighter colour is definitely more friendly for a home so I can see why you chose that color. It absolutely is stunning. I’m sorry, but you made that look easy! I think that being in the space of contentment and slowing down and staying true to your 2020 goals allowed you to be so successful in this project! Look at you go! 🎹💕
I usually am in favor of keeping the original wood, but in this case you did amazing and it looks great!
A vibe! Love a transformation! 💗
Bold move! I was nervous but what a good job you did and looks really nice!
Great work Elle! Your boys are presh!
I’m gettin ready to paint mine too. Thnks for ur help. Good video.
I like the wood but, ypu did an AMAZING job on that piano. I have a piano that I've been contemplating paintjng. Our home has an amazi g farmhouse look, light greyish color walls and dark walnut floors. I'm thinking of going with a darker color gray or black chalk paint. I've done some chalk painting on some furniture that turned out beautiful . I'm not afraid to go for it but, I'm not so brave as to just jump on it right away. I'm trying to just find the right color so...cross tyour fingers with me and hope for the best. Yhank you for your video and, again what a wonderful job I absolutely love this new look.
will the painting affect the acoustic properties of the piano?
How many cans of paint did you end up needing? I’m about to paint mine!
Girl.... this is my fav yet
How much paint did you buy? Did one 1 qt do it?
great job, I plan on spraying on, but seeing what you did was very impressive
Nice color....and I give up painting my piano....whatching your video it is more work need than I though🤣🤣
That turned out really nice you did a good job
Beautiful job! 😍 So satisfying to watch 🤤
At first, I thought you were making a big mistake - but it’s really nice after! Definitely more your style!
Brilliant work! Looks lovely
Will painting it change the tone you think?
Great job!
I’m inspired! I may want to do this to ours as well
Great job!💗
It looks great! And, your boys are hilarious!
Haha aw thanks !
Looks great!! The stalmaster brushes are amazing! Maybe next time try using one of the flat ones. It would be much quicker for you and give less brush streaks. That one you are using is best for small more delicate areas. Just a tip that might help you for next time
Super helpful! Thank you!
I love the lighting and that color you painted it! I was one of the ones who chose the green but now I can't wait to see what you paint next! :)
Oh no ...you never never never paint a piano! I changes the natural sound! Love you Elle..but this oh no...
The sound wasn’t really good to begin with to be honest...this isn’t a high quality piece!
@@elle.lindquist ok. It does look good! And i understand you wanted it to look different 😉☺
It looks great! Tempted to have a go with Annie Sloan, I’m not a super meticulous person though, so I suspect my finish won’t look so good. Random question, is that a pony-o hair tie? I’ve noticed it before, is it any good?
It is!!! Yes I like it
Beautiful quarter sawn white oak piano and you paint it. Not very hygge anymore. Quite sterile.
How does it feel to the touch after the wax coating?
I made my own chalk paint so I can pick any color I want.
Could you link the brush please? Love it looks great
❤️ the piano
❤️ the spoken word segment
❤️❤️ the boys photobombing the video. But sadly I’m not a fan of the music, had to mute it, I miss the jazz feel.
Love it!! How many cans of paint did you use?
And how do you keep the chalk paint from scratching off?
Beautiful job! (I have been known to be called Mrs. Rush...haha!) Has Forde begun piano lessons yet? He would absolutely thrive with them! Loved your background music, too! Thanks! :D
It looks amazing, but how does it sound. Musical instrument tone is determined by the age and breathability of the wood, among other factors. Personally I would only paint an instrument if I were using it decoratively and didn't plan to play it.
The music to this video was incredible. Loved it
do you play or is it for decor?
I wish I played! It’s a family heirloom and I hope my children play one daun
💗
Beautiful job. I was @ an auction last year, and an upright sold for $1! I’m kicking myself I didn’t buy it.
👍🏻
Will the paint not peel or chip even though the wood wasn’t sanded first?
Nope! That’s the beauty of chalk paint!
Elle Lindquist That’s awesome!! It saves so much time and mess!
How are you going to maintain it?? I have been thinking about upcycling few pieces using chalk paint.. But I am not sure, if it is easy to care or need touch up often..
From what I’m reading as long as you finish it with the wax it’s very durable
Have the acoustic properties of piano changed after the painting?I am hesitating painting mine, because of this reason..
FRIEND WOW JUST BRILLIANT AS ALWAYS!!!!! ITS PERFECT! I LOVE IT! ITS SUCH A MAKE OVER ITS AMAZING!!!!!!AND BEAUTIFUL!!!!!!!! WOW♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡
U needed to show how u painted the foot pedals. And the paint u used.
I did!
Elle Lindquist didn’t see that I’ll look again Thnks
It turned out so good!! I know lots of u wouldn’t paint it but I think it looks professional.
I want to do mine but scared!!
Oh I am so sad. 100 years old and now painted.
The wood on this piano was very beautiful. It's too bad you painted over it. I'm all for chalk paint on furniture that is in bad shape being brought back to life. But this was painful to watch. It's like painting chalk paint over the Mona Lisa.
this is horrible and the piano look awful
Please NO!
You destroyed the beauty of the natural wood...
