- My Most Frustrating Makeover Yet.
Hey guys! Follow along to see how I make over this old dresser/nightstand set. I helped my client save $4000 by duping the famous Pottery Barn Sausalito finish. I've got some good tips and tricks in the video so I hope you’ll find them helpful. Products and tools I use or talk about in this video will be listed below :)

What do you think of this makeover?? And if you've done this finish before, can you relate? 😂
I am shocked! What a time intensive and nerve intensive job this was! I can’t imagine a beginner like me doing this for all the pieces you did nor doing it well. This is a skill that must take practice to achieve at least a level of confidence that it will work out. Good for you showing us the tips and tricks that you found helped you achieve such a professional level finish. You knocked it out of the park! WOW it is stunning!
3 DAYS?!?! Girl!!! Get a few shades of Behr’s water based wood stain and play around with those. I’ve done my own versions with those and they only take a few hours to dry. These came out gorgeous though!
I know 😭😭 to be fair it was pretty cold out so that made it longer, cause I’ve done this in summertime and it did dry faster. But YES I’ve seen yours with the Behr stain and the flogging- if the client hadn’t reached out with Rebrushed by Maddison’s reel doing it this way I would have played around with that technique! Thanks for watching Katie! ❤️
It would have taken me 3 weeks.
You have definitely done the best job with this finish and I totally agree with all of your "rants" lol. Your attention to detail and the extra taping paid off!
Lol! Thank you so much ❤️ I swear everyone’s on here not acknowledging how fast it can start looking messy hahah but I don’t have the steadiest hand so maybe that plays a part too 😂 thanks for watching Maple!
PB isn't my jam, but you killed it in this makeover 👍 I'm with you in calling bs on beginner friendly. I'm a beginner & it terrifies me 😵💫😉
Thank you! Honestly it depends on the piece, it’s a lot easier when you have one that has no trim. ❤️
These turned out beautiful. You rocked this! 3 DAYS? ❤
Thank you!!! Omg yes it was cold when i was doing these so it took a longggg time to dry 🫣
I appreciate the taping that you did. I have seen other flippers ignore that and I don't think the finished product looks as good as yours. Extra work and time but it is worth it.
Thank you, It makes a big difference! All the little details add up ❤️
OMG, absolutely perfect. I agree with all the "rants." I just finished a dresser doing this, and omg, I feel you. You did an amazing job ❤
Thank you so much!! No one talks about the struggles of it looking like crap if you don’t follow 100 steps 😂
So this one just came up in my feed.... Oh Girl... this is where the true Artistry comes out..and your work just shines!!! . You have done a amazing job on these.... that finish is exquisite!!! Well done!! I am envious of You... wishin I had a partner in the shop some days... everything is so much easier with two.. I think we are related too, somewhere in a different lifetime... those older Chevy/GMC's in the background are making my heart go flutter... HAHAHAH... I drive a 96E/C 2500 and I love my beast. Great for moving furniture!! Oh was gonna mention, I love the monetary breakdown you gave, as our markets are pretty similar... My busiest is always spring time.. this time of year.... Ill be heading back to my shop usually end of March, but if weather holds, might be sooner. You are definitely giving me the boost I needed.. and I love that you share all the products, good and bad. Thank you so much. Great upload, and amazing work .. and Auntie looks like an absolute HOOT too... You two make one hell of a good team, with Puppers in background, supervising. 🤣 Two thumbs up from me on these ones!!
Great info on the challenges of this finish. Your clearly did a very very precise job with the finish. It looks amazing!
Thank you so much Mary! I’ve done this finish before and each time there were always little grievances I had with it 😂
These turned out amazing Holly!
Thank you! My name is Charlie btw, Holly is our dog who passed away in early 2022, we named the channel after her 🥰
Great job! Thanks for explaining how this is done. Love your dog.
I hope I did a decent job explaining! Haha thank you, he’s a good boy 🥰
Those turned out really pretty.
Thank you! Glad you like the final result 🥰
They look awesome!!! Super high end looking for sure!
Thank you!😊
You know it! My first time trying this "beginner friendly" technique had me wondering what the heck was wrong with me...loved your rant and can relate.
Lol! Right like where is everyone getting their nice flat pieces from?!? Thanks for validating my experience I definitely had those thoughts 😂😂
yay Auntie Power, and yes good job.
Thank you! Hahaha yes auntie power 💥
Rigatoni Ridges! Perfect example for those of use who are visual.
The end result of all of your hard work and attention to detail - absolutely fabulous! Thank you for your amazing tutorial. Well done!
Lol! I’m glad you like that comparison ☺️ I definitely understand things better in terms of food 😂 thank you so much Audrey!!
These are amazing! Kudos to you. Attention to detail 100%. I’m defs following you after watching this 🌸🦆
Thank you so much! Yeah I kinda had to, I’ve done one in the past that I wasn’t super happy with. It looked great from a bit away but once you got really close the little details bothered me haha 😅 welcome to my little corner of the internet!! 🥰
Hi Charlie...I love this makeover, no I haven't done this method before, it scares me, lol...These pieces are gorgeous, great bottom line too....Take care...cheers !!!
Hi Martine! Thank you so much! With the right piece it is a lot easier so don’t let it scare you! ❤️
Rigatoni. Perfect example! I need to start doing this finish again. I used to do it in grey, but I should do the Sausalito...Great job!
Try it! It turned out so nice and I love the colour 😍 lol! Can you tell I’m always thinking about food 😂
You are so right. I tried it on a coffee table but i was so frustrated that i decided just to paint it
Lol! It can be so tiresome! 😂
You did an exceptional job
Thank you! ❤️
Came out beautiful! That was a big set! I have everything I need to do this look... Just waiting for it to get warmer because it's too cold in the garage. 🥶. I hope I can do it. 👍
Thank you Linda! Yeah the cold weather definitely doesn’t do this finish any favours 😂 a heater would warm up the space to make it dry a little quicker although you don’t wanna forget to turn it off 😅 yes I’m sure you can! Let me know if you end up doing it, I’d love to see!! Thanks for commenting ❤️
I love it so tedious but well worth it it's beautiful
Thanks Oreo!!! Ken Doll was like "Where's Oreo?" 😂❤
@@hollysgarage Ha ha hi!! Ken doll ❤️
Looking pretty great! Good job! 🎉
Thank you!!
I have watched a ton of UA-cam videos on this finish. You are absolutely correct, everybody says it’s easy, it is not and yours is by far the best I’ve seen. They turned out awesome! I was hesitant to try this but you gave such a detailed tutorial that I may try it on a small piece… with no trim 😂
Thank you so much!! I’ve done this finish a handful of times and each time I learn something new to make the next one better, so it’s definitely practice too! Yes you should try it, it is a lot of fun and it’s even better when it starts coming together ❤️
Yes they look incredible!
Thank you! 😊
WOW!!! As always you out did yourselves!!!!
All three pieces look spectacular!!!
Amazing job… each piece you both do just gets better and better!
By the way, I think your aunt loves you very much ❤️❤️❤️😁
Thank you! ❤️❤️ we love our auntie very very much too!
They came out great! Love it! ❤❤
Thanks so much Carol!! ❤️
Thank you for your honesty!!
Lol! To be fair I had a difficult piece and I was doing it in the dead of winter 😂
I LOVE the finish! It looks fantastic!
Thanks Glenda!!
I love this finish and have done it often. However … I just did a piece this weekend that, for the first time, wasn’t completely flat. There was trim like yours. So yes, it can be a little tedious. But truly this is the best technique to do when there are lots of nicks, dings scratches etc in the wood. Your pieces look great. Great profit!!!!
I totally agree! It can camouflage so much, and that’s super helpful when you want to save time. Where are all these flat angel pieces?! 😂 thank you so much I’m super happy with the result ❤️
They really look great 😊
Thank you so much! ❤️
That is the best faux look I have seen so far 😊
Thank you so much! ❤️ tape was both my best friend and my worst enemy in this one 😂
I can vouch for all the issues you mentioned. The most annoying to me is finding a spot or area that’s not quite right and having to do the whole surface again . Ugh I’ve tried several times to make it blend fixing one spot but nope looks like crap. It isn’t easy per se like you said . I didn’t find it to take 3 days though but maybe it was warmer or less humid where I was doing it . Your end result looks awesome!
Omg isn’t that the worst!!! You literally can’t spot fix something or else it looks like poo poo. Yeah I was doing it in the dead of winter so that had something to do with it probably. It’s so give and take though, if it dried fast then it wouldn’t be so workable to get the whole section right in time. I still prefer this glaze over the other glazes I’ve tried cause it’s extra slippery so you can spread it out farther. Thank you for sharing!! I knew people just weren’t talking about it 😂
WOWWWW 😮..GREAT JOB 👍THXS FOR SHAREING 😊 LOOK FOWARD TO SEEING UR NEXT VIDEO
Thank you!! 😊
Great job!
Thank you! ❤️
This technique is difficult for the lines of that piece, I spent so many hours on a similar project, so I feel your pain. Plus it looked pretty cold outside, which I hate working in the cold. It turned out beautifully. Instead of using the glaze product, I also have tried polycrylic mixed with paint as the "glaze" in a 50/50 ratio approximately. Dries super fast so you can proceed to your next section sooner. You can add a bit of floetrol if you want to extend the dry time. Choose a paint color similar to the glaze color.
Thanks Heidi! It’s such a give and take, I love the workability/fixability of the rustoleum plus the slipperiness of it, it just takes a long time to dry. I’ve tried a paint/glaze mixture but that one wasn’t spreadable enough for me, even though it didn’t take as long to dry 😂 maybe I should have added floetrol like you said to make it more slippery 😅
Thanks for sharing Heidi!!
These look really good!
Thank you Pam!
Beautiful work
Thank you so much!!
These came out great and I agree that the finish is hard to do on anything with detail. So far I’ve only used it on the tops of furniture and it looks really professional.
Thank you!! I agree! If it’s done right it looks super good 😊
Came out great! Thanks for sharing the struggles. I did a side table in the finish, but I used Dixie Belle voodoo water based gel stain, but did lighter stain color. It was flat on top and sides the drawers were rattan, so I painted them the base color and just did the frame around them which were rounded. It came out so good.
Ooo I’ve been wanting to try those out for a while now! Those sound pretty, do you have them up? I haven’t done anything with rattan yet although I like the look of it. Hahaha the struggle was so real for me in this one, especially inside the nightstands 😂 thanks for watching and commenting! ❤️
I agree that yours are The Best I’ve seen❣️
Thank you so much! ❤
Turned out great! I can see why it was frustrating for you to complete. Cool result, though
Thank you! yeah definitely challenging at times but I like how it turned out 😊
Great job! My only suggestion is that next time perhaps you can give your aunt a little more "jig" time.
LOL! I’ll let her know 😂😂
Omg too funny 😂, but definitely a labour of love. They turned out beautiful. Great job!!
Thank you Sandra! Hahah it was hard work but everything turned out great 😊
Thanks so much ch first being honest about this finish. It’s not easy 🤦🏻♀️
You are preaching to the choir 😂 if theres no trim then sure yeah it's fair to say it's easy, but once you get that trim involved, theres so many opportunities for it to be messy. Thanks for sharing! ❤
This is not the only finish on You Tube that can go bad😳 try bleaching wood!! Do you know some wood bleeds🤣🤣 also Easy Off stripper is not reliable 😫 I have tried it ALL and wood is persnickety😜 and sometimes crazy things happen and stuff can turn out perfect or NOT!! Your video was great best of luck🌷
@@paigeroussel6133 I’m sure I’m only scratching the tip of the iceberg!! I’ve never tried bleaching wood actually, the one with the two part mixture at least. I’ve also heard of spraying household bleach and letting it dry in the sun to lighten wood but again never tried it myself!
It turned out so good Holly!! When I did this finish- I found having a fan blowing on the glaze after I finished help dry it faster! Granted I did mine in the summer/fall so I had warmer weather and it dried quick! The taping off is key!!! Turned out so great!
Thank you so much Maddison! This client actually sent me your reel on Instagram as the inspiration, so I think it's so awesome that you've found it! I actually did this back in October/November so it would have been so helpful to have had a fan going. The taping off was definitely essential to this finish, especially with all this trim i had going on 😂
@@hollysgarage 🤍🤍🤍
Lovley job, looks very time consuming 😊
Lol! It was one of my longer projects 😅 but still very rewarding when I was able to get it right ❤️
I’ve done this finish twice now. I can’t say I love it. If possible, I’d rather sand to raw wood and just do a tan wash.
I totally agree! Real is always better 😊 I guess the best time to do this finish is if you have a laminate piece that has clean straight lines. I hope you didn’t run into as many challenges as I did! ❤️
Wow!
Thank you! 😊
What sheen was the beige Sherwin Williams paint? It turned out really nice.
Satin! I like to use satin paint for that little bit of extra durability (the higher gloss, the more durable) and then seal with a matte top coat. The finish usually turns out somewhere in the eggshell range 😊
👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
❤️
This is a hard finish for a perfectionist 😅😅😅
Oh my gosh tell me about it 😂
Gorgeous! But how can u go wrong with 2 pyrenese supervising u. 😁😁😁😁😁😁🐶
Lol! Exactly 😂 they’re maremmas! Super closely related to Great Pyrenees but a little smaller apparently. They’re still huge to me hahah
😅 15:38
What happened? 😭
Way too much work. The finished product is lovely, but there are other lovely finishes that are not as labor intensive. I hope you had fun doing it, which would make it worthwhile.
Hahah seems like it right?? This was a requested finish so I didn’t mind, but I definitely wouldn’t have done this finish on these specific pieces on my own accord just seeing the open nightstands and all the different trim 😂
Great job!
Thank you so much! Glad you enjoyed ❤️
