    I love the Diamond in the rough:) That color choice is beautiful. thank you for sharing your journey, mistakes and all. It is fun watching. I am learning along with you. I bought a bench and omg I found 3 layers of paint, was going to stain it, but so many little nicks and dings and mistakes that ultimately I ended up just repainting it. But it looks cute on my back patio. Happy new year! Look forward to watching what you do this year. 😊

      Thank you! It was a little out of my typical safe element but I’m glad I went with my gut on it. Yeah sometimes a piece just doesn’t allow us to do what we hoped. Three layers of paint is so much to strip through and remove.🫣 The bright side is that you’re giving it new life now. Thanks so much for following along! I appreciate your support.🩷 Happy New Year to you as well!

    I liked all of them but 2 do stand out to me the most… the 2nd & 3rd makeovers. #2 I loved that dark green color from Wise Owl Paint, pole wrap panels, and the stained top color. Wow! It’s a perfect tone for any room, so beautiful to look at and appreciate the work behind it. #3 Going with a lighter stained top and a lighter paint color is an excellent choice - blended well together. Loved the drawer pulls, I’ve bought those before and they just bring a nice touch to the piece. Definitely appreciate the sentiment behind the work that went into this makeover. Thank you for the recap, I was hoping you’d share one. May you have an even more prosperous 2025. 🎉

  • @rachelk2169
    @rachelk2169 7 วันที่ผ่านมา

    Amazing recap! Congrats on some very successful flips and thanks for all the amazing tips! Quick question: when doing the scratch test and going back to resand if it fails- do you just sand it more with the same grit you previously used or do you lower the grit to get more texture ie. instead of scuff sanding at 180 grit, do you go back and use 150 or 120 grit? Also, what grit do you find to be the best for scuff sanding?

    • @Restorations.by.Rachel
      @Restorations.by.Rachel 7 วันที่ผ่านมา

      Thanks so much, Rachel! It honestly depends on how well the primer is coming off or the surface I’m working on. For the laminate top, I used 80 grit bc it’s plastic. I use that always now on that type of piece. For the green Drexel dresser, I believe I used 220 bc I was trying to get a smooth transition from the bare areas to where I left primer. I didn’t want there to be a visible line when I painted over it. For scuff sanding 180 or 220 is great. If a piece has a lot of texture in the old finish like the faux bamboo dresser, I will start with 120 to get rid of the texture. You could follow it up with 180 if you feel like it’s too rough looking, but you’ll most likely be fine bc of the light sanding between your coats of primer and paint anyways. Hope that helps!🩷

    • @rachelk2169
      @rachelk2169 7 วันที่ผ่านมา

      ​@@Restorations.by.RachelThanks for your very helpful and thorough response! I've had a few pieces that the paint just didn't want to adhere to even after sanding so this is very helpful knowing the grits you use and how to fix this issue. Sometimes it can be discouraging as I will invest in a new brand of paint due to great reviews by other refinishers and then when I use it, it just seems like a fail. So now I will have to go back and double check that my sanding was thorough enough. Blessed New Year Rachel and thanks again for all your encouraging and helpful videos!

    • @Restorations.by.Rachel
      @Restorations.by.Rachel 3 วันที่ผ่านมา

      ⁠@@rachelk2169you’re welcome! I’m sorry you’ve had some bad luck with paint adherence. Another key thing is to make sure you’ve cleaned the piece really well with some kind of degreasing agent. Simple green is good if you want to be able to spray it on. Dawn dish soap is great, too. I’ve had primer not stick bc I didn’t get all the furniture polish off even after cleaning. It will vary piece by piece how dirty it is, but that’s another key factor for making sure your paint adheres correctly. Keep trying and learning! A lot of learning comes from our mistakes, which I know can be frustrating with all the time and money invested.

      Thank you so much! I loved that set, too, but I also am partial to French Provincial sets.😍 I need to get better at tracking how many hours I spend on each piece, but since I am often working sporadically or getting interrupted by my sweet kiddos I haven’t done it very well. I would say it’s somewhere around 15 hours on a typical dresser, less if it’s in great shape, and more if I add detail, am stripping it or have repairs. That also includes me picking it up, moving the camera around to film, taking before and afters, etc. My next project will actually be a bed frame for Audrey!😀

    Absolutely STUNNING!! You did an exceptional job bringing this piece back to life. Also, thank you for showing your stripping process with Acetone. I’ve been liking using it more and more too. It seems to work faster and it’s a bit more thorough than some of the other chemical strippers. Re: how smooth the oak veneer felt after sanding. I’ve noticed that too on some older pieces. I wonder if the older woods have a tighter grain (old growth trees) so they’re harder to scuff up with sanding (?)

    • @Restorations.by.Rachel
      @Restorations.by.Rachel 19 วันที่ผ่านมา

      Thanks so much, Amy! I appreciate the rave review coming from you! I’m glad seeing the acetone stripping was helpful. I, too, like how thorough it is. You’re also dealing with less gunk like you do with a typical stripper. It’s nice to have options since stripping isn’t my favorite.😅 That’s a really interesting theory about older wood. I wouldn’t be surprised. I had an antique Eastlake dresser I redid recently that seemed to have really tight grain, too.

      Thanks, Brenda! I’m really happy with how the repairs ended up, too.☺️
