    Just an FYI-when your wood filler dries out, add water a little at a time (don’t worry, if you get to much, leaving the lid off for a little while in that Texas heat will fix it). Mix the water into the dried wood filler well. Let it sit 10 min and see if you need to add more. Since Wood filler is mostly wood with water added, you will soon get it back to the texture it was when you got it. Or the texture I prefer it to be. Either one. I discovered this out in an emergency one time. Now- I do it all of the time. And it works like a CHARM!! I never throw wood filler out any more!! Money saved!!! Give it a try! Your dresser turned out Beautiful. I love that color!! By the way, your hair is freaking adorable!! It looks fabulous on you! Rock it girl!

      Yea, I do with the ones that aren't gorilla brand. I think the gorilla one has a bit of their glue in it! lol For some reason I can't get it back to a good consistency. Thanks for watching!

    Very beautiful and absolutely I would use this in my home. The gloss finish makes it look like a brand new piece from a furniture store and to me that’s hard to achieve by painting. I think the high quality dressers you choose to flip makes a huge difference. Great job.

  • @BeveerlyHerring

    I don't personally often choose a glossy finish for my own home (enhances the visability o f dust) but the look is beautiful. You really brought this piece back to life.

    It looks 10x better and I love a glossy finish bc to me it’s so much easier to wipe down than a matte/flat finish.

    The dresser turned out beautiful!!❤❤❤ I’m more of a matte finish person, however I would definitely reconsider for this one. I was gonna ask you how the summer heat affected your business. I live in Texas too about 1/2 hours south of you and my sister is in Grand Prairie. I also paint furniture. Hunting , transporting and getting ready for sell slowed down a lot!

    • @LemonstoLemonadeFurniture
      @LemonstoLemonadeFurniture  Рік тому +2

      Summer was brutal but if I could get a project done it would sell. I ended up having to bring a few inside. Ready for the cooler temps! Thanks for watching!

  • @maple9326
    @maple9326 Рік тому

    To keep your wood filler from drying out in your heat, place a damp piece of paper towel in the container. For anyone in a cooler climate, check it periodically because it can get a bit of mold growth if too wet for too long.

    LL, you chose the right word, "gorgeous". That is my very favorite style, does anybody know what to call it??? The pulls were also loverly.
    These professional painter guys that go around repainting kitchen cabinets always prime first because they say it makes it obvious exactly where to caulk. Like a hairline space in a miter joint. There is no substitute for feeling to check for imperfections.
    I am sure that is good wood under it all, and you preserved that. It will be current for at least 10-20 more years, maybe even classic.
    Heck of a risk to use the high gloss, but WOW, so well worth it. That would blend with almost any style. So classy and high end looking, it was good furniture to begin with.
    I wouldn't be so vulgar as to ask how much and how much did it sell for, but what was it and how fast??? I would have paid up to 200 for that before the makeover, job VERY well done.
    That Proven has done you miracles, can't wait for mine to get here! 50% OFF, is GOOD!

      Always look forward to you comments as you know = ) You will love the Proven system, I saw it on Shark Tank awhile ago and always wanted to try it! I haven't sold yet just listed but its at $650. That dresser would look great with any finish on it, it is such a nice piece, great bones. I knew it didn't sell at auction bc people were afraid of that crazy layered paint job. Nothing a sander can't handle! Have a great week!

But fresh from the factory. Wow, you have a keen eye, so proud and happy for you. Just a PERFECT decision with the color and high gloss and keeping the pulls. I am so impressed.
