    I was a little concerned when that green started going on but after it dried, the color actually turned out beautiful. Love the top, love the hardware upgrade, and love the legs. Nice job!

    I absolutely love the finished product. I have two questions. What is the turntable that you put your drawers on to paint? Also I noticed when you are spraying the dresser overspray goes inside. Do you clean that up or do you just leave it. You’re one of my favourite flippers.

    Hello found your Chanel and love your work. I have a question about the over spray inside the dresser cabinets. Is this not a concern for customers that the over spray is inside the cabinet area even though you may not see it when you put in the drawers? Thank you for your vids. I have subscribed.

    I have a question I’m hoping you can answer. I am refinishing an oak end table in the same style as this gorgeous dresser. I used a gray color wash on the bare wood top. But I’m having trouble getting the finish to come out even. I have darker and lighter patches. I did half the surface at a time, then wiped it back as evenly as possible. Do you have any tips or tricks for this?

  • @shelleycoleman1760
    @shelleycoleman1760 3 місяці тому

    Hmmmm. I have those feet and an American Drew cherry wood dresser with the scroll feet. I have not been able to figure out how and where to use those feet. But now I see. The Cherry will not stain light as that maple. So I will have to figure something out. Thank you for the great idea(s). Furniture is moving very slow here in the PNW.

  • @zellasmith2540

    I have been dying to try paint wash. I just painted the bottom of a side table with a pretty green and when I watched this I said, "Maybe I should try it now". I didn't sand this table so I am not sure how it will do. But I can always go back and put green paint on it if it doesn't look right. Thanks for the inspiration you give. I am in Denison and can't those kind of prices.

    Interesting flip....cool to learn what finishes are trending in different parts of the country. My first thought when seeing the outdated drawer pulls was to perhaps verify to see if they're actually solid brass...sometimes the older quality stuff like this dresser had hardware which was the 'real deal' as opposed to being merely plated. :) They could be given a new life in their natural state for some "Old World" type of decor setting. Just a thought. :) Always enjoy your videos, thanks for posting.

    Do you find that people don’t care about the spray getting inside the dresser? I think I’d turn on my heel and not buy it. And I am not trying to be snarky. I simply would worry that it would make the drawers hard to open especially on a hot day in Texas. Do you find that it’s an issue with any buyers? How hard is it to protect the inside? Is it really that hard? I don’t flip furniture so I honestly don’t know. Thank you! It is absolutely beautiful by the way!

    • @LemonstoLemonadeFurniture
