      It’s due to what it’s made of. A true antique would be made of a heavier, sturdier wood made to last decades.

    When I was pregnant with my 10 year old, my grandfather gave me his mother's rocking chair and my dad completely refinished it in cherry to go with my daughter's crib. Later, I had also inherited my grandmother's mother's folding rocking chair from the early 1920s. She was only 4'11" and it was made for her, so it was little, but in only 5'1" so it's The perfect size. The fabric wasn't in good shape and one leg was broken in half, so I left it with my parents when I was moving between apartments and kind of forgot they even had it. That Christmas, they gave it back. My dad had restored all of the wood and fixed the break. You couldn't even tell after he refinished it all! My mother redid the upholstery. It was just beautiful. I thought it was in my storage unit with my other furniture so my mind was extra blown. I still have both.

    I have no need for restoring old furniture just yet, however, I still find myself watching good ol’ John because the voice this person has is so bloody relaxing. I could literally listen to John speak about spoons for 3 hours and still love every minute

    I once made a ball of wood with my grandpa and he encarved my lucky number in it. I remember lacquering it so thickly I almost passed out from the fumes xD. After I filed it down it looked so elegant I decided It would be what I pass on to my children.
    Filing a sphere so it looks smooth was hell on earth it took me 4 days to make it even, (I eventually ended up with an almost smooth paper to have the finest grain ^^). Today I'm 20, it was 7 years ago but I'm still so proud of myself, It was the first time in my life I showed so much patience and effort on something, trully changed my mind. :D

    Also John again: "I'd ALSO like to present you with this small village I hand crafted earlier too..."

      Stacey Sabot lol😂 I'll be far too busy shopping to acquire everything that is required to lacquer my furniture so it is seamless, all whilst awaiting for John to upload part 2 of this fil'um and tutorial. But I do sincerely have a deep appreciation for your supportive concern. It has had a profound affect on my ability to deal with the emotions that often do come as a result of one's failures. Accepting ones shortcomings is a natural and necessary task in the growth of one's being. I bid to you a marvelous weekend and do take care xx

    Ok John, you have such a fascinating and engaging persona that I really feel you could do an entire lifestyle series. People would be interested in anything that you do. I see talks on more of this -furniture, but also shopping with John, cooking with John, decorating, collecting, music, literally anything. Just sharing your unique and interesting world with a fan base that will continue to increase. I’m so glad to see you doing master classes, please consider expanding your range of topics, I see so many exciting possibilities for you. Our world needs your grace and sophistication now more than ever. Bless you.

    If he isn't the most gorgeous androgynous person I've ever seen in my entire life then I'm not turning lesbian or bi curious of whatever humdrum labeling you wanna come up with. Like, he seriously needs to start narrating books or the news just so I can hear his voice everyday or at least see that gorgeous face light up the daily news. I guess I will settle for youtube and stalking his IG 😍

    You are helping me get back to refinement and are such a blessing. What an amazing looking piece of furniture. You have taken me back to my childhood because my Great Great Grandfather(from Cullen) was a carpenter and built many beautiful pieces of antiques for Hotels and for their own home. Thank you so very much for this as I am so keen to learn what my Great Great Grandfather did. I too think it's very sad that there are so many sacred antiques just thrown either to 2nd hand shop's or forgotten about. I myself love the antique dresser I have and my drawers. I'm loving your tutorial because I'm on the lookout for certain pieces then try and do the lacquer process you have shown. I would absolutely love love love to see your own works of art..that would be such a special treat. With love and Kindest regards Luna..Namaste ❤🙏🌹

    Not sure if you'll see my comments John, but I'll ramble on anyway. I have the same style. Very much into more detailed, ornate, embellished, antique style things...not just furniture, but pretty much anything. I refurbished a TV cabinet that I bought last year, it's solid quality wood and the woman I bought it from considered herself a furniture restorer. She had spray painted it black and blue and had these god awful country style metal stars nailed to the cabinet doors. I patiently and lovingly sanded it down completely, laquered it, painted the doors and inside, and painted the center and corners of the doors using a beautiful medallion stencil. It looks completely different now. It was the first time I'd redone a piece of furniture and I absolutely loved it. It was definitely a labor of love and something I'm excited to do again.

When I first saw this title I thought it was about nail polish, now I'm more intrigued rather than just amused by him.He effected this change in outlook seamlessly,sorry I just had to say that.

    You come off as educated, refined and as someone who enjoys making things lovely/lovelier.
    I would very much enjoy a future film about the process of epoxy coating the top of the table! I could probably watch you in films doing or talking about nearly anything, but I enjoy films or instructional demonstrations on fixing or restoring items. This was wonderful 💕

      @rainbo777 6 років тому +3

      People will always bite iconic personalities/idiosyncrasies. I mean, who doesn't want to be as seamless and refined as Lord Maclean? It's pretty clear that John is authentic to his own expression and style, so no one would think that he is the vernacular thief. Those who copy are either doing it as a loving homage, or they will have to live knowing that they are unoriginal and engaging in the type of trend-following that John himself despises.
