You take your time to explain as well as show us the differences between all the methods. For me, a beginner, I'm very appreciative to see the different techniques. I get hesitant to try something different out of fear it'll be a disaster
What a nice comment! Thank you so much! I really appreciate you taking the time to leave an encouraging note. I like hearing my videos are helping people.
I would love to see the black over green. That’s actually exactly what I’m thinking about doing.
Oh that would look lovely black over green.
Great videos! So glad I found your channel.
Welcome to my channel! Glad you like them!
This is an excellent comparison of materials and techniques for creating an antiqued look. It's just what I was looking for. Thank you.
Awesome to hear! I'm glad you found the video helpful.
after looking at many videos on this subject, yours was the most helpful. It's been hard for me to decide how to glaze my ornate chair and you really helped me with your samples! Thanks so much!
You are so welcome! I love comments like this!

Terrific video. THANK YOU!! YOu did a great job and I learned so much. thank goodness I watched this before I started my project!
Glad it was helpful!
THANK YOU!! This video is exactly what I was searching for! I have a huge french headboard and I've been stuck at this step decision but your demo helped me decide and made the step clear!! Thanks ♡
Pamela OBrien I’m so glad you found this video a good resource for your project! I hope your project turns out beautiful. 😊
Great class!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!☺
Glad you enjoyed it!
This is exactly what I needed to know. 🙏🏻 Thank you!!!
You're so welcome!
Thank you I’m just starting out and this was very informative!
You're so welcome! I'm glad it was helpful!
I really love the way you explain and show everything, so easy to follow and understand.
I am working on a cabinet that I painted white with chalk paint and I added flower appliques with a lot of detail using casting resin. I want to use the brown glaze over it but your video definitely showed me I should seal it first. What should I apply the poly with and how do I avoid drips or pooling around the more ornate pieces with the poly?
So helpful! Thankyou!
Thanks for watching and commenting!
Thank you so much!!!💕
No problem 😊
Love your videos! Do you have to seal over the general finishes glaze once they dry? Or do they have a sealer built in them? I've been using just oil based stains for glazing but I hate using oil based poly. I prefer to use water based products when possible because Polycrylic Is my favorite lol
I'm so glad you like my videos! Yes I usually seal over the glaze once it's dried with a water based polycrylic. I've also used oil based stains in the past for glazing going for that muddy/dirty glaze look. Polycrylic is probably my favorite topcoat over paint. Granted it has a learning curve to it but it's superb in my book.
Thanks for the very informative video! Question, I already chalk painted my cabinets and do not want the muddy so I’m going to add a poly coat as you demonstrated in the video and then wax or glaze on and then off. Do I have to add another poly coat after I either add glaze or wax? What’s the difference between a wax or glaze? Thanks.
I’m glad you found the video informative. Wax is used as a protective topcoat. You either use wax over chalk paint OR use water based poly over chalk paint. Most people do not mix the two on a project. Make sure your poly is water based. Glaze is not a topcoat it is used for dramatic effect. So in your case I would paint, Poly, glaze AND then another coat of poly. I would highly advise against waxing your cabinets. Cabinets are high traffic and need a more durable topcoat than wax.
I like the last look.
Please let me know what products were used.
Thank you, Cheryl
Great technique information
Glad you liked it!
Thank you so much for providing video on glazing and waxing. I am getting ready to do my kitchen cabinets and have never tried this. I especially like the wax but am wondering if I can put poly acrylic over top. My concern is that in day to day cleaning I will end up wiping or smearing the wax. Thank you!
Thanks for watching! I would highly advise NOT applying a wax as a topcoat over kitchen cabinets. It will not hold up over time and the heat of a kitchen will break it down. I would recommend a water based topcoat.
I loved your video, very informative!
Do you always use chalk paint or can I use mate paint? My color will be red with a muddy look with brown glaze. I’m looking for a rustic look for an accent piece of furniture
Glad you enjoyed this tutorial! I don’t always use chalk paint. Sometimes I just use plain ole latex paint. Depends if I’m going for the chalky look or if I’m going to distress heavily. You would be fine with just matte paint.
Hi, thanks for your response, it was helpful. I would love for you to do a video or two on the business end of all of this. I'm a 78 year old who would like a little extra income. I'm an artist already, but have never done anything with furniture. I haven't had to deal with paypal and that sort of stuff, so I'd love it if you could do something like that. I'm sure other new comers to this sort of thing would find it helpful too. I think that you're the best educator in this field. I haven't watched all of you videos yet, always looking forward to the next one. Thanks for all of the info. Loretta
Just an add on, it's kind of discouraging on the shipping if one got lucky enough to sell a piece that needed that service.
I tip my hat to you wanting to learn more about the flipping business and want to earn some extra cash. Great suggestion for a video for me to do a business side aspect of refinishing furniture. I’ll add it to my UA-cam To Do List. I keep a list of videos I want to film. What kind of art do you create? I would love to know.
Hi, I'm glad that you like the business idea. I grew as an artist after I move out here to Oregon twenty years ago. I guess it's safe to say that my art is very eclectic. I'm working with rust on canvas right now. I dabble in photograph of various styles, paper mache' and different kinds of art using paper pulp. I want to do more real copper art. Sometimes my head gets full of different idea's. I'm beside myself right now, my first furniture flipping adventure is putting rust and patina on a desk and chair that I bought for $20. I'm really frustrated with it. I think that the desk is done, but I had the chair so it looked ok, but then I decided to change it and now it's gonna take some thought to get it where I'm happy with it. I was thrilled with the video about how you get you furniture into your house. I have a set of eight or so steps that I won't be able to get some things into my house. I admire you for you perseverance to overcome your circumstances. I'm sooooo glad that I found your video's. Keep'm comin. @@madelinejeanantiquesrestor9074
Neat video! I have an antique buffet with a lot of detail, perfect for a glaze. I don't want a distressed, shabby look, so I'm assuming I can use latex followed by the glaze? You mentioned in another response to a comment about using a matte latex but I read that it should have at least an eggshell or satin finish so the glaze will glide on better. What do you think? Thanks!
If I want a clean glazed look. I use a matte/flat latex paint THEN I apply a water based topcoat like Polycrylic. THEN I apply the glaze and wipe off where need be. That's how you achieve the clean glazed look. The Polycrylic serves as a barrier between the paint and the glaze. Makes it super easy to wipe off the glaze.
I love your videos, they are so informative. Do you ever have to ship anything? Could you do a video on that if you have?
I have not shipped any furniture as of yet. Mainly because of the high costs of shipping. I know Etsy brags about shipping being free BUT all the sellers are marking up their pieces 2x, 3x as much to account for the shipping. So normally a dresser is $400, they mark it up to $999 and higher to account for the shipping costs. Most furniture artisans used Uship as the company to ship. I've heard good things and then horror stories. Btw, thank you for watching my videos! Much appreciated!
Thank you so much for the description of all the various glaze methods. I always wondered how to get that look now I am so excited to try them. Do your rags go in the garbage afterwards or is there some way to wash them? Glazing unfortunately seems to be a very “wasteful” process but an absolutely beautiful one, I’ll have to just accept that as hard as it is. Lol
Glad you found the video so helpful. I guess you could wash your rags. I keep mine in a dirty pile and then reuse them for clean up on other projects.
when glazing or waxing a small end table with straight legs, no curves where dp you pit the deeper colors of glaze (wax)? edges> and which gives more protection? can i top coat or either? ty
Glazing works best on areas where the glaze can settle into crevices, grooves and ornate areas. You can still apply it to smoother areas you won't get the same results. Waxing does give some protection, not as much as a water based topcoat.
I saw another video and the person said to use a sander especially made for glazing by Makita. Do you use this method as well?
I have never heard of glazing with a sander. Hmmmmm. I do most things by hand when it comes to creating finishes.
Do you apply a poly acrylic finish coat over the glaze to protect it?
I do not apply polycrylic over the glaze.
Great video! How long would you let the polyurethane dry before glazing
It needs to completely dry before you glaze. That depends on the product.
If I’m not using chalk paint (I’m using Benjamin Moore), would you recommend to apply a top coat before glazing as well?, I’m going after a clean looking not muddy
Yes, absolutely I would do that if you want the clean look.
@@madelinejeanantiquesrestor9074 thank you so much, I just found your channel and it’s just amazing, suscribed already!
@@ariadnamaloney9273 I appreciate you subscribing! Thank you so much! 😊
nice job
Thanks!
I love the videos.. what brand of wax do you recommend? Thanks
My go to wax is this brand:

I also did a review of Maison Blanche's wax on another tutorial. Hands down the best wax I've used. Goes on like butter and super easy to buff. You'll love it!
Muddy vs Clean Look? Never heard of that! Here I'm thinking the antique glaze I purchased is horrible. Lol :) I have a veneer dresser that I can't decide whether I should paint or try this technique. I definitely want the clean look. Would this work on veneer?
Yes it should work. Just make sure you prep your piece correctly.
Would the polycrylic yellow the white if you weren’t to glaze after? Trying to find a durable topcoat for white/light colors..
Scowzer Yes any oil based polyurethane over white paint will yellow it. I would use either clear wax or water-based Polycrylic over white paint.
Great! I’ll try the water based polycrylic! Thank you!!
Scowzer You are very welcome. There is a little bit of a learning curve when it comes to applying Polycrylic I’ve done a couple videos on it.
I will check them out. Thanks! I don’t try anything before learning a lot about it.. I’m a very nervous painter, I guess you could say lol..
Do the glazes need a sealer of some kind???
Yes. Usually I apply either a wax over them or water based Polycrylic.
After the glaze do you add a clear coat
Yes I usually do apply a coat of topcoat
@@madelinejeanantiquesrestor9074 thank you
Very knowledgeable only problem is you need a camera man to zoom in when your putting your glaze on
Yeah this video was uploaded many years ago when I didn't do many multi camera angles or close ups. Thanks for watching anyways. Hopefully it still was helpful.
What is the barrier you used...
Any type of topcoat would work. Clear wax or a water based topcoat like Polycrylic.
I used urethane enamel paint why would I put a top coat on that before the acrylic glaze , I thought after?
Where can I buy these stains?

Great tutorial showing the differences. Can glaze be applied to furniture that has epoxy paint?
I personally have never tried it.
I cannot see what she’s doing
