    So much furniture was made better once upon a time and even if it is ugly or worn out can be so beautiful and not become landfil. I'm buying a beautiful repurposed piece this weekend and for a really good price and it's so nicely renewed. I couldn't be happier and so glad it is saved and not costing me 4 or 6x the price for a less quality piece. Love what you make and how you do it. You are a blessing.

    Beautiful, this is the video I was looking for. My husband and I rescued a solid wood table with a leaf, from the roadside. Beautiful lines, but dinged up and needing restoring. I'm all about the natural and black look (I have about 5 mismatched wooden chairs, which I've repainted black, and for which I will make chair pads using a a black and white toile fabric). Also found an antique solid wood sideboard, made in Vancouver, again just being thrown out. Will probably re-do that one with a natural top and black everything else.

    I purchased a round table for 4 that was very similar. The base of the table and chairs is an off white, which I love. The table top and seats are just like yours in that brown finish. That brown finish showed scratches so much! I stripped the top like you did but did not do any staining. I finished it with three layers of polyurethane.
    I decided to take the 24 seats to a local furniture covering business. I had my color palette with me and I asked Mr. Kamahl to help me choose a durable woven fabric. We now have covered, cushioned chairs that we love.

    So glad I found this video. I have a solid wood table my Dad made for me almost 20 years ago; only problem is that it is stained a very dark red oak. I've stripped and sanded the top back to the bare light birch wood, but I planned on painting the pedestal white and the trim around the edge of the table top black. The edge is routed, and I can't get some of that dark red stain out of the crevices. Using this method, I can paint that routed edge black and use the thinned down paint method to keep that beautiful light birch wood top. I'm getting so much knowledge and inspiration from these furniture flips!

    Absolutely beautiful and I know what hard work this is. I have done small pieces and to do them right it takes so much time and hard work. You make it look easy but its very taxing on the body especially to get down low and into the grooves of things and lets not even mention how hard sanding could be too depending on how large the piece is. Taking ur time and not rushing through is key and u have what I like to call the GREATS lol …A great sander, a great sprayer, and a great work ethic !! Love that u are able to give this piece away it would not be so simple for me to do ! God Bless

    You inspired me to do my own dining set. I used fusion mineral paint, recovered my seats in a chenille fabric and I bought a big roll of the thicker black landscaping fabric to make the dust covers on the bottom. It just looks neater stapled over the raw edges of your upholstery fabric and wood bottom.

I used that same Alkyd paint 9 years ago on my current kitchen table and chairs and it has held up extremely well.

    @institches2750 Рік тому +2

    Beautiful work, as usual. I love the black with that pale wood. The whole vibe is so elegant. The material for the chairs is not a good match, in my opinion. The lumpy fabric clashes with the sleek, smooth lines and high contrast colors of the wood, and the color is a close-but-not-quite mis-match to the tabletop. Plus, I've found that textured fabric really grabs and holds onto debris--straw, sticks, splinters, grass, etc.--so it's hard to keep clean.

I am fortunate to have had the opportunity to purchase a Habitat house in Asheville, NC last fall. My sweat equity included working at the ReStore as well as working on my house and my neighbors' houses for a total of 263 hours. It was fun to see how much furniture moved through the ReStore and to imagine the transformations they might receive. I would encourage you to see if there's a Habitat family that could use this lovely dining set. It would certainly become a family heirloom. Thanks for all you do!

    Great video! I particularly like the watered down paint sealer. As one who use to do a lot of furniture flipping (I stopped most projects because after adding up all the cost my return on my investment was dwindling because people do not want to pay a reasonable price for the finished project). My new favorite refinishing technique is chalk paint as it needs very little preparation. I use a spray clear coat and a paste wax finish. I have also used the tinted chalk wax with good results.

    Not sure I am aligned with the bouclé fabric, but it is trendy & modern. I might have gone for something more hard-wearing and classic - however that would likely be more expensive.
    A great project, and lovely to see your 2-legged & 4-legged helpers! 😊

Just a thought on the legs and the loose connection, if you look inside those corner reinforcement wood pieces, you can tighten those screws from the inside vs creating a new screw hole on the exterior. I have tightened many coffee tables and chairs with those corner screws. Good Job!
