    I sold my childhood Dixie furniture except the desk. I wish i had it all back now! I painted it yellow with the white top and solid white with the white top. I love it all white best with new crystal knobs! The old knobs were white with gold ring near the center as shown in your video. I think im going to try and hunt down the dresser with perfume jewelry box mirror, bunkbeds and nightstand ! Id love to use them in the bonus room when we finish the remodel on there later this year!

    This was so fun. I think I like the other faux wood grain you've used in the past, but the owner of this peace myst be thrilled, as it looks fantastic! Since you asked us, yes, I love bold colors. In June, I'm going to put up paintable wallpaper in my foyer and then paint it Benny Moore's Sedona Clay. It's on my entry door and it's stunning. The ceiling is already a pale salmon. In a Victorian home like mine, filled with flame mahogany, burled walnut and cherry furniture, I use bold colors throughout, with my neutral, grounding color of Black. IMO, every room should have black. Keep on flipping:)

    Question: Did you wipe back that last, lighter stain color used at the end (prior to applying LM top coat)? The only reason I ask is because it looks much more opaque upon application.
    Or does that particular stain become more transparent once fully dried?

    I think you did this piece on a faux wood comparison video where you had like 4 different pieces you had done. This was my least favorite of them all but I do remember you saying that it was for a friend. The only reason I was not fond of it was the body color. Otherwise, nice job but I don't like the faux wood choice for the top. It needed a different graining tool not the one you used.

Very neutral boho in her decor and bedding paired with a large wall mural with this orange color mixed in paired with the orange dresser! Ugh so adorable! I would have loved this at her age! It’s fun to paint those loud pops of color sometimes that’s for sure. Thanks for watching hope to see you next time!

    @sophiachristo7546 11 місяців тому +1

    The only thing I would change is the use of the fake wood tool.... I don't like the intense lines it creates.... I would have used a harsh brush to create the modern look of wood, but it's just personal preference. Furthermore, you usually modernize the bases of furniture but you left this one look dated. I guess your friend preferred it like that. Totally fine.

I thought you were gonna show us less work to get this dresser repainted but you ended up having to do pretty extensive prep work imo... and a stripper may have actually been faster here.. Ive seen those knobs but never seen anyone use them. they look cool... also that little round sander is super nice.
