Hi Loves! I would love to know if you liked this more "vloggy in depth" style of tutorial! I can 100% do more of these for larger scale projects so give this comment a thumbs up if you would like to see more! (ALSO, the total cost of this project is in the description box if you are curious!)
Definitely love seeing u out and about shopping. There’s a lot of time u put into these projects I did not realize how time consuming it can be. U always make it look so fast and easy.
I’m obsessed with rattan everything at the moment so love this diy. I kind of think not being able to remove the glass is a blessing in disguise, it’s an added layer of protection for the things inside so they won’t get as dusty.
Right? I would leave the glass in on purpose because I hate when everything gets dusty. This way you can even vacuum the rattan with the nozzlebrush because its sturdy.
Only problem I see is if you live in a high humidity area. Even with the air conditioning on my closets get musty inside if I don't leave the doors slightly open. The cane in furniture was meant to allow air flow so the contents inside don't get mildewed or musty before air conditioning was invented. Obviously where Drew lives this is not a problem and has the advantages you mentioned of keeping things dust free. I'm going to try this DIY but for my situation I need the air flow of the cane. So glad Drew did this DIY.
He has amazing ideas, but honestly, I think he still has some improvement to make to go straight to Netflix. His finitions aren't the best, yet. That being said, he's still really good and has really really great ideas ^^
I agree! It also helps to keep dust out.. I have 3 dogs so I appreciate any shelving that has doors or glass on it to keep fur and dust from getting on everything
One thought: if you want to use a wider mesh cane, you could use brush-on glass frosting or frosted film or Contact paper. It would knock the shine right down. I agree with the commenter who said having the glass in place will help help keep the inside of the cabinet and it’s contents from getting dusty.
I love the longer DIYs on larger items! It shows more detail and is easier to follow! It’s also helpful to see how to do a more useful item like the book case! Good job! It turned out wonderfully!
Hey dude, i really like your vids. Love your up-cycle projects! Safety-wise...I would really love to see you using gloves and a mask when dealing with epoxy. You use it often and it worries me every time. In the woodworking trade we have a principle that goes like this: "if you there is a substance that have the same properties then a known toxic one, use the lesser toxic substance." this goes for toxicity for humans, animals and nature in general. Always choose the lesser toxic one. (In Denmark, woodworkers and not allowed to use epoxy unless they have completed a safety course in how to handle it) Epoxy is great for a lot of things and when it's hardened, it's stable and wont de-gas. There's many kinds of epoxy, but common among them is during the application of it, it releases fumes that are known to contain carcinogens and contact with your skin can lead to rashes and allergies towards any product containing Isocyanates (the active substance in epoxy and MANY other things). Also if you heat it up again, it will release these fumes. So say fx. cutting it with a power saw, drill or the like, fumes release again. Also the fine dust when sanding is bad. When in our private homes we don't deal to often with these toxins, but I often see DIY'ers use the stuff a lot because it's strong and convenient, but you are running a risk. Please please Please, wear a gloves and a mask when dealing with it. Keep up the content and stay safe my guy :D
The good part of this tutorial is that is easy enough for someone without a ton of tools. A lovely piece for beginners. I think removing the glass would have been possible, but not really necessary and as others have mentioned helps keep dust from collecting inside the book case.
@@She.Follows.The.Sun. Thrift stores are awsome though because then you make it your own due to thrift stores generally only having one of a kind pieces. It forces you to get creative with what you have so that way your not copying tit for tat. I do agree though that this was an awsome D.I.Y that everyone can make and it's fool proof since the item is chain store bought. ✨😃👍✨
In that case the shelf doesn't fit hangers, but tension rods can actually break apart cheap furniture due to the pressure it puts on them. There are proper "devices" at handycraft stores, in case you ever do such a project yourself. As a poor student I literally depended on preventing my furniture from falling apart >.
I'd love to see you take that cheap furniture in Wal-Mart, the black coffee and end tables in the boxes that screw together, and show us how to make them prettier 💖
I really love these longer format DIYs! The quick and easy ones are cute, but these bigger projects are the ones that give you a really great, quality new home piece!
Drew, I would love to see DIY versions of trendy Anthropologie/Restoration Hardware furniture! Similar to this concept with other boho/rattan trendy items that are SO overpriced at most stores! One of my favorite DIY's yet :)
Gorgeous, I'm glad the glass was left in, it will reduce dust for what's inside and possibly over time the cane may have gotten saggy once things like humidity, or moving house again come into play. I stumbled on your channel due to being on sick leave and I swear I'm binging I'm so addicted. Suffice to say 'subscribed' and yeah go the vlogging format, you're a natural.
Omg this turned out ahmazing! Who else can’t freaking wait for the day the Drew buys a house and we get a full series of home remodel/decor vids from him. It will literally be my home dreams embodied.
I loved this video. I am a 78 year old lady who loves decorating and this is a great great way to do cane. As it gets drier it will be likely to split and the glass will prevent that. I have had rockets and many lovely old pieces split! Looks great. Am having fun following you Am a new subscriber.
I loved this! I think the glass helped make this easier and keep the material sturdy on the panels of the cabinet/shelf. You can barley tell it’s there - only when you open it up. Thanks for sharing! Do more like this please! XO 💕🤗
To those who don't live in the US, most things can be purchased online, I believe. As a US citizen, I will say that since downturn of the 2009 slump in the economy, choices in stores and brick and mortar stores, for that matter, are slimmer than before. :(
Ohhhhh my god this is the most beautiful thing ever!!! I cannot believe you did that!!! Saves so much money and looks absolutely beautiful and so expensive
Woven fabric may say over time w Especially a loose weave like jute. And it would downgrade the finished look. Cane brought the bookcase into a higher realm >. Very classy !
This idea would work if you applied the fabric to the glass with a decoupage technique. This would prevent the fabric from sagging over time. Plus decoupage dries clear as well.
Love this type of video. I watched the whole thing. It gives me confidence to try this type of project myself and shows me how to elevate IKEA pieces to look higher quality than some of them actually are. I’m inspired. This Billy/Oxberg cabinet came out so so good! ✨🎉
This was very interesting to me. I’m thinking on how to do my billy bookcase with the o berg doors. Mine is white. Maybe some lace. I’ll have to think about it.
@@lestranged Lace atrakts dust. but meby trie with stainglas peint. putt the lace on the glas, spry over it and then remov the lace. that wud giv it a nice afect.
Man, never thought I could be made to be interested in interior decorating until I found your channel- is there nothing you can't do with furniture!? Can't stop watching!
This turned out so cute! I actually like the look of the glass on the inside, it gives it another layer of texture that looks refined. I can't wait to try making this!
I love this. Like seriously. I have open bookshelves in my bedroom and it gets soooo dusty so I decided to get something with doors. I was watching DIY with KB and she showed a picture of this project (I’ve been following you for a while so I’m not it sure how I missed this video) and I fell in love. You’re a genius, I’m so doing this. Thank you for all that you share with us. 💛
I love this type of video where’s it’s kinda half DIY and half blog! Super helpful to see your entire journey from brainstorming, to getting your supplies, making decision based on availability of supplies at local stores, to the construction of your project. I hope you continue to make videos like this 💓💓💓
I like the in depth DIY. Sometimes you guys are so good at this, that it feels like I’m watching a magic trick! This is all new to me, so the more information, processes & techniques that you share, the more I learn. It’s challenging for me to imagine the creative possibilities. It’s even more challenging to actually bring the design to fruition. The devil is in the details & it’s hard sometimes to explain the steps that are seemingly natural. I thank you for the break down, it’s helpful, IMO. The great thing is that people can fast forward to skip ahead if the pace is too slow. However, as a beginner learns, the smaller steps are like the thread that strings the project together. It’s my yellow brick road 🤓
you have to completely mix the epoxy somewhere else first, and then apply it. if you just squeeze from the tube like at 7:17, they don't mix properly and epoxy that isn't properly mixed doesn't properly cure. It looks beautiful tho!
I think the type of epoxy he got has a double syringe and is in instant mix, so it mixes in equal amounts of resin and hardener so you don’t have to mix it elsewhere(: I know for other epoxies that you want to mold or apply you have to mix it, but even on the company website it says it creates the adhesive regardless because of the application mechanism(:
@@makaylarillamas5147 I was going to say that I've used plenty of double syringe two part epoxies before and that the syringe is only to make sure the same amount of each is dispensed, and then you have to mix it yourself --- But you're right, I just looked up that specific brand and it does emphasize that it instantly mixes. Super weird then that it didn't cure properly.
The drawback turned into a nicer piece I think! The birch veneer looks so expensive compared to the beige and having the glass in the door means more protection from dust for whatever is inside! Love it :)
Wow, adding that cane strip edging makes a huge upgrade. Great idea. I was pondering doing exactly the same thing. Thanks for making it happen in the real world. Thanks for sharing. Lucky to live in an area where IKEA and Cane is available. My IKEA runs are 4.5 hours each way. Good thing they have lunch there. lol. The downside of living remote. It is so neat that you are sharing knowledge with a fellow flipper/upcycling creative. I love these furniture flipping people. Not having cut throat attitudes is rare these days. Such a pleasure to watch. As for the vlog vs. instructional video format, both are awesome.
I am dying over this DIY, thank you for sharing!! I've been wanting to do a cane webbing DIY project.. and I love how you make this one so simple. I want to do something like this for my IKEA malm bed frame, and add cane to the headboard and frame around it. I'm seriously going to get this cabinet though lol
Awesome, awesome, awesome !!!!!! I always wanted one of those but like you said, they can get very pricey...but now I can make one myself and get the look AND stay in my budget!!!!! Also, I think getting the bookshelf in that natural wood finish was actually perfect and probably better than the beige one!! Oh and btw, I hadn’t watched any videos in a while but I definitely missed watching yours!!! Always cool, fun, well made, with tons of beautiful DIYs!!! Oh and you always crack me up at some point in every video!!! I love your personality !!! Ok I’m gonna stop now but great job!!! Lol!!
That is absolutely one of the most brilliant hacks I've seen with the Billy bookcase, incredibly elegant and would fit in just about any room or with any decor, love the fact that you gave detailed instructions and what type of materials to use, love the longer format, wish you all the best with it
I love the blog style! I literally have been binge watching your channel ALL day! I would love if you showed the original inspiration decor with your finished product so we are able to compare them during the reveal! That would be awesome, I rewind every video just so I can see the difference, just an idea! I absolutely love your videos! I think your the best DYI/decorator on UA-cam!!
Yes please.... btw I’ve been using only gorilla glue sticks since you (I think) mentioned it on a previous video... it works sooooo much better than other glue sticks.
How lovely that the color of the cabinet and cane were basically identical. Great job. I think I'll try this on a small cabinet I already have. Thanks for sharing!
Loved this DIY! Just incase you weren't sure the epoxy glue needs to be mixed before trying to adhere it, that's why it comes with 2 syringes so that it can be mixed then applied! Hope this helps for future projects as it's a really handy thing to use ☺️
I would never have thought this would be my style but I loooooove this. Nicely done! I really enjoyed the video blog style too, hope to see more of that soon!🧡
This is so well done. You have a great eye and mad skills that can't be taught, (I sound old, yup, I am), and yes, you should definitely do more of these. Curious if you attended design school?
Great project and a beautiful result! Here is a tip: If something comes rolled up like your cane did, if possible roll it up backward (inside out) for a few minutes to relax the bend in the material and it will lay flat faster aso less need for heavy objects, in some cases (depending on the material) it can almost lay completely flat. Really enjoying your channel and the tips and projects you are sharing. Nice work! Love to see more videos like this :-)
I love this style of vlog. I love seeing your thinking process through it all and how you overcame obstacles. This piece is beautiful! Thanks for sharing!
Omg . I wanna kiss your hands of gratitude 😩👏🙏😍😍 wow!!! I always wanted a cabinet like this but they are so expensive. But now I can make my own. Thank you so much
It's weird how almost everyone in my country(India) is throwing out cane furniture because it's "old" and "ancient" and it's trending in other places lol XD
I would be that person that would find this furniture years later at the thrift store and be like *gasp* "someone covered up these beautiful glass doors. I wonder if I could strip it off..."
He was alone so he wouldn't have needed Covid mask in any case ( if his roommate was filming that's OK as they are a household anyway)! He needs a mask to protect from outgassing fumes during gluing & painting, sanding etc., otherwise he's going to mess up his lungs for the future or even risk cancer.
You are a life saver! Thank you! We have one of those and our baby who's quickly turning into a super strong toddler likes to hit the glass with various toys, which makes us super scared. This is a perfect solution for baby proofing as well as visually!
Yes - watched the whole video - great project and so glad you went with the beach colour ... looks better than the lighter one would have. Loved that you are using three birds renovation book ... those girls are amazing.
I did this "pinterest thing" yesterday- with those one dollar shop swimming- mattes. I wanted to upcyicle my antique cabinet for years - it is a "fly closet" from the time before people had freezers. And there are lots of spaces to fill with rattan- would be very expensive. So i "risked" 3 euros and tryed.. it came out that pretty! I am very proud on myself - and thanfull to you, because when i saw you doing the pinterst hack, i gave myself a push trying it the cheapy way
This is so genius!! I'm converting a billy to a freestanding pantry, and was looking for a way to easily add unique and high end looking doors! Thank you 😍😍

If you removed the glass, it would be so much more difficult to glue. I think this looks even better than those super expensive ones you showed.
I agree! I realized that I needed to keep that glass on! Also if you leave the glass on then you can add command hooks on the inside and hang jewelry!
I agree! It also helps to keep dust out.. I have 3 dogs so I appreciate any shelving that has doors or glass on it to keep fur and dust from getting on everything
@@lonefox That would look so cute!!
@@daniellerose9323 I can imagine, I have 3 fluffy fat cats and open shelves are not a possibility cause they climb everywhere.

One thought: if you want to use a wider mesh cane, you could use brush-on glass frosting or frosted film or Contact paper. It would knock the shine right down. I agree with the commenter who said having the glass in place will help help keep the inside of the cabinet and it’s contents from getting dusty.
I’m actually glad you left the glass in, if anything it just makes it easier to clean since dust wont accumulate and get inside

is it dangerous to use epoxy in the bathroom? with the heat would it release these fumes everytime?
Wtf that's a lot of writing
Thanks for educating us! I didn’t even know that.
Certain Epoxy products yes, but not all epoxies have dangerous chemicals.
The best thing about the internet is being able to share info. Thanks for the explanation about health and safety :)

I would love a series where you revamp thrift store items and furniture into something aesthetic like this!

Drew you’re literally so talented. Honestly your DIYs are always so legit. This looks INCREDIBLE!
That’s would make a great small closet for a guess bedroom, just take out the three or four top shelves and add tension rods for hangers 😚
Yes! Such a good idea ❤️
The depth of Billy bookcase is only 11". It doesn't fit hangers for adults +clothes on them. Otherwise, it looks very nice with the caning.
In that case the shelf doesn't fit hangers, but tension rods can actually break apart cheap furniture due to the pressure it puts on them. There are proper "devices" at handycraft stores, in case you ever do such a project yourself. As a poor student I literally depended on preventing my furniture from falling apart >.
Lara very true. But the same caning technique could be used on a wardrobe with doors.
Or for your shoes and bags in the closet 🤗 I thought I might’ve wanted an open display one but this is cute too!
Seriously one of my favorite pieces you’ve ever done. It looks like you purchased it like that. No glare from the glass, to glue showing, perfection!
I really liked this style of video, kind of lifestyle, decor, dyi, everything together, seems more you.
Amanda de Oliveira agree
Yeah! It felt a little more fun to create :)
Totally agree
@@lonefox like the subject and will be doing this soon. Where to get the caning in Philadelphia area is the puzzle so we will see. Wonderful video.

I love when you’re more detailed in explaining what you’re doing. I plan to remake many of your DIYs when I get my house 😃
If we just had "cane supply" stores. I feel like that's such an American thing to have a huge store for literally EVERYTHING lol

I used to live in the US and I miss the economy of scale. So many people and so... so many choices.
Its such a California thing lol

@@lindaartz3297 me too
Ohhhhh my god this is the most beautiful thing ever!!! I cannot believe you did that!!! Saves so much money and looks absolutely beautiful and so expensive

The cane with the glass actually looks way better than it would without! Killed it 10/10
Woah! I’ve been agonizing over how expensive cane furniture is and now I feel like I can do this!

The thing I love about this is that you can have it over the glass like you did, or under the glass to give it another look. Love it!

It is so neat that you are sharing knowledge with a fellow flipper/upcycling creative. I love these furniture flipping people. Not having cut throat attitudes is rare these days. Such a pleasure to watch.
As for the vlog vs. instructional video format, both are awesome.
I've watched so many lone fox videos that I'm starting to hear 'rotonne' as correct! Ahhh! Rat-tan!
It looks SO good.
I am dying over this DIY, thank you for sharing!! I've been wanting to do a cane webbing DIY project.. and I love how you make this one so simple. I want to do something like this for my IKEA malm bed frame, and add cane to the headboard and frame around it. I'm seriously going to get this cabinet though lol
So glad you enjoyed the video :) you should to totally add cane to the headboard!
Awesome, awesome, awesome !!!!!! I always wanted one of those but like you said, they can get very pricey...but now I can make one myself and get the look AND stay in my budget!!!!! Also, I think getting the bookshelf in that natural wood finish was actually perfect and probably better than the beige one!! Oh and btw, I hadn’t watched any videos in a while but I definitely missed watching yours!!! Always cool, fun, well made, with tons of beautiful DIYs!!! Oh and you always crack me up at some point in every video!!! I love your personality !!! Ok I’m gonna stop now but great job!!! Lol!!
That is absolutely one of the most brilliant hacks I've seen with the Billy bookcase, incredibly elegant and would fit in just about any room or with any decor, love the fact that you gave detailed instructions and what type of materials to use, love the longer format, wish you all the best with it
Thank you so much!
I love the blog style! I literally have been binge watching your channel ALL day! I would love if you showed the original inspiration decor with your finished product so we are able to compare them during the reveal! That would be awesome, I rewind every video just so I can see the difference, just an idea! I absolutely love your videos! I think your the best DYI/decorator on UA-cam!!
this is seriously so beautiful!!
The benefit of living in LA having all these cool stores and materials to do all sortsa stuff
This tutorial and the result is awsome, love your work and creativity!
Yes liked the format of this video more in depth but not dragged out. Thanks
This is AMAZING! I love that with the glass you are also able to keep items dust free. This is beautiful. 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
This looks amazing, wish we had stores like this in Europe 😞
Yes please.... btw I’ve been using only gorilla glue sticks since you (I think) mentioned it on a previous video... it works sooooo much better than other glue sticks.
The finish is so good like it looks amazing honnestly, when this quarantine is over imma try this whith the fourniture i already own like damn!!!! ❤️💕
Yay! Do it :)
How lovely that the color of the cabinet and cane were basically identical. Great job. I think I'll try this on a small cabinet I already have. Thanks for sharing!
Thanks so much! 😊
Loved this DIY! Just incase you weren't sure the epoxy glue needs to be mixed before trying to adhere it, that's why it comes with 2 syringes so that it can be mixed then applied! Hope this helps for future projects as it's a really handy thing to use ☺️
I would never have thought this would be my style but I loooooove this. Nicely done! I really enjoyed the video blog style too, hope to see more of that soon!🧡
This is so well done. You have a great eye and mad skills that can't be taught, (I sound old, yup, I am), and yes, you should definitely do more of these. Curious if you attended design school?
Yeees I would like to see more videos like this. Snd by the way, drew, all your projects are amazing
I’m addicted to your DIY videos. And I love your personality...it’s like your speaking to me personally.
Thank you so much 🤗
Great project and a beautiful result! Here is a tip: If something comes rolled up like your cane did, if possible roll it up backward (inside out) for a few minutes to relax the bend in the material and it will lay flat faster aso less need for heavy objects, in some cases (depending on the material) it can almost lay completely flat. Really enjoying your channel and the tips and projects you are sharing. Nice work! Love to see more videos like this :-)
Love you so much all your stuff is amazing ❤️
IM ACTUALLY SHOOK HOW THIS TURNED OUT FSFSFS GOING TO DO THIS !
❤️❤️❤️
Been excited for this since you posted it in your ig 😍
You should be on TV!! Such a confidence!
I love this style of vlog. I love seeing your thinking process through it all and how you overcame obstacles. This piece is beautiful! Thanks for sharing!
Great job! I would put different knobs on it though. Those were too plain. Just found your channel! Love it!
I love the simplicity of the handles. They allow the cane to be the star. I'm so glad he left the handles.
Ten videos ago: wtf is cane
Two hours later: Ah yes, cane, the mother of all Lone Fox DIY projects!
hahahahaha
Your videos deserve more views😭💯💯❤️ GIFTED HANDS 😻
LOVE LOVE LOVE. Only thing I’d consider changing are the knobs. I’d choose a darker wood or metal
Omg .
I wanna kiss your hands of gratitude 😩👏🙏😍😍 wow!!! I always wanted a cabinet like this but they are so expensive. But now I can make my own.
Thank you so much
“Here’s my lovely 100lbs of wood.”
Oh myyy 😅
I feel like you read my mind, I was just looking at this on pinterest
It's weird how almost everyone in my country(India) is throwing out cane furniture because it's "old" and "ancient" and it's trending in other places lol XD
Its so amazing how the woven rattan and the bookcase you got are matching colors!
Love, love the bookshelves and rattan lined doors.....it's beautiful! Please do more of this kind of projects.
I can't afford the rattan sooooo I guess I can use a loose burlap and wood edge veneer!
I would be that person that would find this furniture years later at the thrift store and be like *gasp* "someone covered up these beautiful glass doors. I wonder if I could strip it off..."
i was like ' why isn't he wearing a mask???' til I realized this was before covid lol
He was alone so he wouldn't have needed Covid mask in any case ( if his roommate was filming that's OK as they are a household anyway)! He needs a mask to protect from outgassing fumes during gluing & painting, sanding etc., otherwise he's going to mess up his lungs for the future or even risk cancer.
I’ve never seen a diy I’ve liked enough to do myself and I think I’m actually going to do this!
You are a life saver! Thank you!
We have one of those and our baby who's quickly turning into a super strong toddler likes to hit the glass with various toys, which makes us super scared. This is a perfect solution for baby proofing as well as visually!
Wait am I first😳
I watched you for the first time and loved this video. I am in my 70’s and have redone a lot of furniture and yes, I did pick up some tips.
Yes - watched the whole video - great project and so glad you went with the beach colour ... looks better than the lighter one would have. Loved that you are using three birds renovation book ... those girls are amazing.
I did this "pinterest thing" yesterday- with those one dollar shop swimming- mattes.
I wanted to upcyicle my antique cabinet for years - it is a "fly closet" from the time before people had freezers.
And there are lots of spaces to fill with rattan- would be very expensive. So i "risked" 3 euros and tryed.. it came out that pretty! I am very proud on myself - and thanfull to you, because when i saw you doing the pinterst hack, i gave myself a push trying it the cheapy way
This is so genius!! I'm converting a billy to a freestanding pantry, and was looking for a way to easily add unique and high end looking doors! Thank you 😍😍
