I cant even believe thats the same chair! You completely transformed it and i know that wasnt an easy project. You are a true artist. Thank you so much for joining in on the challenge
Thank you!! Coming from you that means so much! I have been admiring your work for years and you were one of my inspirations to start flipping! 😊
@@diamondzfromtheroughDIY that makes me so happy!!! Wow!!@
This was super fun to watch! Love this video! Can't wait for the next one! Dapper Dan is incredible! Such creativity! I'm always amazed at your functional art pieces! 🎨
Thank you sweet friend!
I cannot believe that decoupage paper can be a chair back! I loved how you painted it in and blended it into the chair. I have never seen gilding done before, I was impressed - especially since I am a glitter hater. This was inspirational. Thanks
Oh yay! I'm glad I was able to show you something new! Redesign with Prima gilding waxes are by far my favorite (no I'm not sponsored! Lol) easy to apply with a brush or your finger and it's easy to wash off your hands. Great stuff for adding the finishing touches!
Just gorgeous! Thank you for sharing trials and errors too. Very inspiring!
Thank you for watching! There will surely be more mistakes to see in the future! Lol I make them every time! 😉
Love this Leora, you did an amazing job, the tenacity you showed to battle through win’s accolades. Bravo and well deserved, keep up the fabulous recreations 👏🏻🙌🏻🥰
Thank you Barb! I appreciate it so much!
A chair fit for a queen! Beautiful!
Thank you! I'm working on "the king's throne" now, and video to follow!
I would never have thought to do decoupage on fabric. This is such a cool piece.
Thanks! I learned the technique at the Daydream Apothecary Masterclass earlier this year! I was so excited to try it when I came home I immediately started looking for just the right piece! 💙
Definitely a big diamond! Beautiful job. Thanks for sharing the trials and tribulations behind getting this done!
Thank you! I look forward to sharing even more mistakes in the future! 😆 Believe me, they happen every time!
Well, you knocked out of the park! Very stunning and love dapper Dan his so handsome 😊! Extremely creative! Good luck!
Thank you for the kind words and for watching!
Congratulations! You are the winner of the End of Summer Ugly Duckling Challenge!!!
OMG THANK YOU SO MUCH!! I am so grateful to have been included in this talented group! 💙💙
Wow. Just wow. I love it ❤❤❤❤
Thank you! I'm about to start working on the companion piece for this guy. I hope you tune in the next week or so to see that transformation! Thanks for watching!
Great work! Thanks for sharing your amazing work with us! What a transformation!!!
Thank you so much! 💙
That chair is an amazing one of a kind gem. You did a fantastic job. Great creativity. Congrats on your well-deserved win!!
Thank you so much, that is very kind! 💙
This is absolutely FABULOUS!!! Wow what a wonderful result and turnaround!! Well done!!💕
Thank you! I really appreciate that!
Coffee makes you a soul sister, LOL. This is so cute. I love the kitty cat, and I’m also a steampunk fan.
Thank you! I just put out a video for a steampunk armoire you might like! Also I run on coffee and Pepsi in the studio; it's the only way to go! 😁
Incredible. Thanks for sharing all the tips and ideas. Great job.
Thank you so much, you are welcome!
Love love love!!!!
Thank you!
Yes I am biased but I do live in a beautiful part of our world. Enjoy when you come back again❤
Love, love, love💚💜fabulous work….love from Scotland🏴🏴🏴
Thank you so much! I absolutely loved Scotland when I visited last year; can't wait to go back!
I watched all the Ugly Suckling Challenges and you were hands down the clear winner, innovative as well as beautifully executed! Great job!
Wow! Thank you so much! That means a lot to be a viewer's choice as well as the judge, so I appreciate the vote of confidence! Thanks for watching 😊
Oops Duckling, thick thumbs typo
@@60something4 I figured that's what you meant but it did make me laugh! 😂
Wow!
Ooh la la!! Your Dapper Dan chair is stunning!! I love it 😍💜💚
Thank you!! 😊 I just love a good steampunk cat!
Wow! Just started watching Desert DIY videos and came across this challenge. You are a true artist! Really love your aesthetic! A steampunk cat!!! Fabulous!
Thank you so much! That means a lot to hear, I really appreciate it!
Bless you- you didn’t stop! I love your personality and you are very talented and artistic! You teach well from knowledge and skills. Thank you for sharing this and participating in the challenge! Yes definitely, it’s a Diamond from the Rough. It isn’t my style but it’s an outstanding piece. Great colors!
Idea: A series on animals that are going extinct without more help from humans (?) - just a thought. You have a great eye for details!
Thank you so much for the kind words! I love a theme; that's a great idea! I am not sure if there are already papers with those images, but the maker of Whimsykel papers is always taking suggestions for imagery we want to see. I can suggest endangered animals!
Steam punk. I love it...❤
It's one of my favorite styles! I'm a sucker for anything with gears and clock parts!
Definitely a swan!!! I thought it was so cool 😎
Thank you!! Mission accomplished! 🦢
Congratulations on you first challenge. You did an amazing job
Thank you very much!
Awesome job! I love the funky cool vibe and the bright colors. The gold added the perfect sparkle ✨
Thank you! My favorite is bold and bright!
fabulous!
Thank you!
Wow - I wish I could find a chair like this one! It's seriously cool. Even better you went steampunk kitty.
I found two! One at a garage sale, and this one at Habitat. You do have to sort through some hideous stuff to find it though! Lol
You did an amazing job. I have subscribed, in the hopes of seeing more detailed painting in your work. Doing projects with paint, yarn, and silk flowers are a few of my favorite mediums. My main reason for watching this challenge, was for the painting part. I like to do murals, faux finishes, and trompe l'oiel and have been doing so in homes and businesses since the 80's, til 2017, when I married and relocated. Now my home is my forever canvas. I look forward to your next project.
Thank you joining to see the challenge and for subscribing! In my next video I am getting into more details on the paint and decoupage process. It should be out this weekend! 😊
Beautiful!
Thank you!
Amazing transformation, I love how it turned out 👏🏻💪🏻😍
Thank you! I am so happy with this one as well, and I'm working on the companion chair video now!
Love the chair. Keep up the good eye.🎂
Thank you!
Love it!!!
Thank you!
A good idea to do an upholstery is to use the old fabric to produce a pattern to new one, like that, it makes easy to re-do de odd shapes like the ones on the side of the sitting cushion.
You are absolutely correct! That is how I have my other chairs in the past, but for some reason forgot to do that this time. 🤦♀️ It was how I cut the second attempt at the seat cushion and I was kicking myself for not doing that in the first place!
@diamondzfromtheroughDIY i love furniture updates, but there's no market for this here in UK, we did try to update to sell them, but here people are used to get furniture for free, and are not willing to pay a worth price that
Could pay for our work so i re-do furniture for my house, almost all my furniture is from free furniture that i revamp and use.
That is sooo cute, and I’m not even a cat person. Well done.
Thank you so much! It was hard to let this one go! 😊 Thanks for watching!
I'm SOOO UPSET WITH MYSELF! I JUST FOUND YOU? WHY? YOUR WORK IS GORGEOUS😮
THANKS
Thank you so much!! It took me a year to work up the courage to actually post the first video! Now it just takes me weeks to edit each video! lol
I love that chair! Great job
Thank you!
I just love your teaching and personality. the aspect ration is difficult to see on a PC so look forward to seeing MORE!
p.s. just love how you show your mistakes and how you keep going!
Thank you so much! I am happy to report my newest video was filmed in landscape, so I hope that fixes the ratio problem! Thank you for watching! 💙
@@jewels7291 mistakes are going to happen no matter how many times I do it, so I had better show how to soldier on! Lol
Hi there watching from the UK 🇬🇧 you did an amazing job making over that chair ... fabulous end result x
Thank you for watching!
Dan is one badass dude. Fun video, and very creative of you!!
Thank you very much! And thanks for watching!
The Elton John cat & flowers are not my taste but I love how you brought out the design in the carved wood. Loved the deconstruction/ construction tips too.
Understandably this design is not for everyone! I love the description "Elton John" cat though; that's perfect! I'm glad the tips were helpful!
Oh my goodness! You are absolutely adorable & hilarious! “Change number two hundred eighty seven…”I haven’t finished, yet, but I had to come comment. I love how real you are in this. I know that this will turn out beautifully.
PS I just finished the video. The chair is GORGEOUS❣️ WOW!
Thank you so much! If it's one thing I'm terrible at, it's "scripted acting"! 😂
What an amazing transformation!!! WoW-wEE! 'Supercalifragilistic' demo on what to do and also what not to do. Goodness knows, all of us make mistakes along the way and have to backslide and fix our errors. Plenty of times out of frustration I've given up, but you didn't, demonstrating that determination produced an absolutely top-notch piece of furniture art! My hat goes off to you for your entry in this 'Ugly Duckling Challenge!' Oh, one more thing, this video deserved to be viewed larger. I assume you don't have a means to film this full screen, but in time hopefully, you will.
Thank you so much! I have learned to film my next video in landscape, and hopefully that will make it easier to view in the future! 💙
First time here. I have to say it was a super fun video. And wow that chair is absolutely amazing. Job well done
Thanks so much for being here! I only just started this channel, so your support is very appreciated! 💙
I don't know how you could see the potential in THAT chair.
Actually I saw potential in a different chair I bought at a garage sale (the subject of Part 2 of this video) and then spotted this one with a matching frame while thrifting. If I had seen this one first... I don't think I would have!
Amazing job, I love it ! Stunning!!
Thank you!
This has left me speechless! In a good way. It’s amazing. I just HAD to subscribe to your channel; I want to see more.
Thank you! I am so happy to have you here!
Love it 😍 For me you’re a winner of this challenge
Oh wow, thank you so much! That is high praise!
You gave this chair a beautiful whimsical look that not many could have accomplished considering the old heavyweight chair you started with. Nice job! Enjoy your life, _Cheryl (a new subscriber).
Thank you, and thanks for subscribing! I love letting loose and doing something out of the box sometimes! Actually most of my flips are outside of the box... Maybe I don't know where the box is! 😆
I think ots amazing! Well done ❤
Thank you!
I love it!😊
Thank you!
This came out really well
Thank you very much!
Oh my gosh … how did you do this?! You are truly an artist!! ❤
Thank you!
Congrats! I love your very informative video! It sure helps me feel better cause sometimes I think I’m the only one who has to back pedal!
Very creative!
Thank you! I absolutely have to correct mistakes on every project before it's done, some big, some small. But problem solving is one of the best parts!
@@diamondzfromtheroughDIY It certainly is!!! Doesn’t matter how many videos you watch 🤣
Your killing me with your creative genius girl!!! Wow!!! What a piece of art 🤗
You are too kind! Thank you for the support!
I have subscribed, you rocked it!
Thank you so much! Glad to have you here!
No doubt…had to subscribe. Loved the transformation and your personality. Also looked at your other work, and I’m heading over to Pinterest and fb to subscribe and save some videos to my refurbish furniture board for inspiration and guidance. Thank you for sharing!
Wow, thank you so much! I'm so glad you enjoyed my work! 💙
Turned out cute
Thanks so much for watching!
I love Dapper Dan
He was a "must have" as soon as I saw it!
Great job!!! Great tutorial…new subscriber!
Thank you so much, and thank you for subscribing! 💙
I was just given two chairs, very similar, yet different than yours ! 😂wishing I knew how to reupholster!
I can't recommend Wendy Conklin's Chair Whimsy course enough! She walked me through every step (which I could rewatch any time because I now own the rights to the videos) and was very easy to follow. I have ZERO sewing experience and still haven't tackled sewing double welt cord, but I'll get there! Her course was about $350 but you also get into her private Facebook group so you can ask her questions in real time. As a true novice it was better for me than trying to find a bunch of free tutorials in order to know exactly what I needed to get the results I was after. Good luck!
What a gorgeous design. Absolutely luv the colors and direction you went with this piece. Well done!
Thanks so much! I don't get many chances to use bright green, so this was fun!
hi there!!! new sub here!! love the paint couture brand paint! omg when i see my husband and kids using my fabric scissors!!! I GO CRAZYYYYY!!! i love the decoupage paper! this turned out really really great!!! i love it!! great submission for your first time!!
Hello! Thank you so much, I have watched and enjoyed your videos in other challenges! I am so excited to be included with this cool group of artists!
So happy you joined!!!❤❤
So funky and cool! Props on taking on upholstery, too!
Thank you! I was questioning my sanity a couple of times for tackling it for this challenge! Lol
Wonderfull transformation❤😺😺😺
Thank you!
Wish it was in full screen nice job
The next video I have done in landscape, so hopefully it will be easier to see! Thanks for watching!
Awesome!!!
New subscriber here!!!
Thank you for joining me! I appreciate the support! 💙
❤❤❤
This blew me away. And I love cats. May I make a suggestion to use a different aspect ratio on your video. It will make viewing on the tv so much more enjoyable. But what an incredible transformation.
It’s funny you mention that, because when I saw that this video didn’t flip, I realized I needed to turn my camera landscape while I am filming the companion chair makeover! Hopefully my next one will be easier to see! 😊
@@diamondzfromtheroughDIY awesome! I made that mistake on my first youtube video, too. But you have such a great talent, it needs to be shown on the big screen!😊
@@mistyglendiy_1976 oh wow, thank you for the compliment! You are too kind!
Adorable!
Thank you!
Beautiful from ❤ Chile
Thanks for watching!
Next time you use valvete wait until curtin go on sale. A lot less expensive.
Excellent tip! And you'd get a ton of fabric from that too.
👍
My experience is that old foam will deteriorate - it will powder and my asthma will notice before I can see it or feel it. Just replace the old foam, please.
That is a fair point for consideration. I have deconstructed chairs that had mostly good but some crumbly bits, or parts that feel hard, and those are definitely replaced. This felt like it had many more years in it.
Love your work. Could you position your camera/phone for a wider screen? I could not see most of the work being done.
Thank you for watching! Yes, I'm working on part 2 of this video and trying it with the camera on landscape. I hope that helps for easier viewing!
Please turn phone landscape for full picture.
Definitely! I'm pretty new to this process, but the video I'm doing now is filmed all in landscape.
WHIMSICAL!
Thank you! I think it's so fun!
Excellent!! You have a new sub.
Thanks so much! I'm so glad to have you here!
