Oh my goodness your finish is a work of art!!!!! I have always wanted to try turning those vanities into 2 side tables.

This turned out STUNNING!!! I found you about 4-5 days ago, and you are already up there with my top favorite Furniture Artists!! Your work is Amazing !! ❤
What a beautiful piece of art. I am so glad I ran across your channel. Thank you for showing your techniques in detail. So much appreciated. ♡ New subscriber!! Can't wait to learn more. Sammie-B.F.H.
Oh WOW, I’m in love to watching your creativity! This ugly out dated buffet/dresser you turned out in two pieces of Art. Fantastic job I enjoyed watching. Well done ❤️❤️
I'm glad you enjoyed this I love art on furniture something unique that no one else can own. I'm really glad you enjoyed our video but I'm also grateful you took the time to watch us. Lel ♥️
Oh Lel! You and Martin have outdone yourselves. What am I saying?? Your work always leaves me with the anticipation of how you can possibly top the last piece, yet you always manage to surprise and amaze me. Perhaps my favorite so far. So glad you joined this challenge ❣️
Thanks so much, you are really very kind I'm glad you enjoyed it. I'm very grateful for you watching I've not had a chance to start watching everyone's what with the decoupage launch.... But marty and I thought we would sit down tonight and start watching x Lel x
Thanks so much I'm thrilled you like it, yes I liked the colour combo here normally use use very bright boho colours so was good to do a moody vibe..... Thanks for your kind comment and for watching us. Lel x
I absolutely love what you did. This is my first time watching one of your videos and now this is my taste I love it it’s perfect and would work fantastic especially in my bedroom😁. I really enjoy how you went about creating it to this look.
Awww Mikki thanks so very much for your lovely comment and for watching. We do lots of furniture art so have a look at some of our other tutorials.... X x x Lel ❤️
Yes we have different skills but when put together we get a job done..... Or so my oldest daughter says. Thanks so much for your kind comment and thanks for watching us. Lel x
Yes it all worked out well. I quite like a little bit of drama with a deco style but I never do it. It has reminded me to not just look at boho... Thanks Alyson for watching and supporting us as usual. Lel x
Hi Barbara, Wood Glue is a little stronger than PVA watered down or not. If the decoupage paper you are using is like ours and a little more robust than others then we are sure it would be fine. Cant speak to other lighter decoupage papers, sorry, thats not a great answer but we would suggested testing on a spare piece of wood or a board and seeing what happens if its not one of our papers. Hope this works for you. Martyn and Lel xx
I am so happy that I found your channel! You have given me so many GREAT ideas that my husband will probably want to divorce me because I am having him drag items out to my garage workshop as I type!
Thanks so much I wanted something moody and boudoir esk..... It must have worked as they were snapped up as soon as I finished them. Thanks so much for watching. Lel x
Morning coffee with you and Martyn before work and what awesome way to start the day . Love these and what a awesome tribute to your beautiful papers 💥💖
what a cool piece!! i love the barely twist legs!! definately a perfect canidate for splitting into end tables since its missing the drawers! they turned out absolutely beautiful!! great job!
I believe the skiff is the trash? It’s amazing what you and have done with this! You’ve taken something that was being thrown away, and turned it into a work of art! I would love to have these as night tables. They are a little tall, but I wonder if you cut off the very bottom part where all you had was the beautiful turned part of the leg if that would damage the work? Or if it would bring it down in size to where it would be more useful? I hate to even suggest that because they turned out so gorgeous! Just beautiful!
I guess interior design now trends taller cabinets and I'm selling them this hight so I find it on trend. I guess yes if you were doing it you could cut them, the legs I felt were way to pretty to cut ... They were snapped up. Yes a skip in Scotland is what you might call a dumpster I think. A big metal container where large items go to the landfill sites. Thanks so much for giving me some feed back and thanks so much for watching Lel X ❤️
Janene I do get paint all over my clothes.... Then I just wear them for painting till they get so bad I move onto others.... All my clothes have paint on... Ha ha I am a very very messy painter... Do you paint furniture? Are you a tidy or clean painter? Thanks for watching. Love Lel x
Wow what a transformation! 🌸 so glad you were able to create two useful nightstands out of that ugly duckling. The colors you chose are gorgeous together and I love the stenciling and the flowers 💐 great job guys!
another masterpiece! any time I see art deco piece am proud to be from the same country, where Mucha was born. You are so talented! From trash to treasure, what a wonderful job you and your husband are presenting to us. And btw. that piece on your left, I could not get my eyes out of, sorry for not following your tutorial all the time, sometimes I had to stop to admire your both pieces together! thank you, thank you, thank you
Thank you thank you are so very kind what a wonderful comment. I'm glad you liked it the piece at the side is called lola there is a tutorial on how I painted her. Thanks so much for watching and commenting. Lel x ❤️
Wow~ Your choice of color and art are so outstanding that I can't help but wonder. Can you give us a link exactly what product you used and what color you used?
This is seriously perfect for my bedroom just like I’ve been imagining doing for the last year but my health has been an issue and money lol. But you took this piece of dumped furniture and turned it into a literal masterpiece❣️❣️❣️
I'm so sorry to hear your health is not the best my thoughts go out to you... As for finances find a free piece and but some cheap paint and try to do a little bit when you can... It will make your emotional health feel better and your mental health.... Creativity is a good way of keeping your mind of all the bad stuff... Lel x x
Ohhh mein Gott...das ist echt ein Kunstwerk was du da machst...ich bewundere dich sehr führ deinen Mut...und bin begeistert davon was davon rauskommt❤ Bitte mach weiter soooo😊
Vielen Dank, ich schätze Ihre freundlichen Worte wirklich und werde weiterhin mein Bestes für alle meine Zuschauer geben. Ich wünsche Ihnen einen schönen Tag xx
If you live in the uk Judy it's guild Lane paint.... If your in the states try typing gold guilding acrylic into amazon I think they sell on there to. Hope this helps if you have any trouble let me know and I will get marty to drop you a wee link x
Awwwww Linda I hope so but I have an amazing memory and will not forget people like you linda that were here from the begining..... Thanks so much Lel x
I subscribed to your channel. You've made me want to see other projects you've attacked. Have you watched Kacha? You remind me of her (which is a compliment.)
Ha ha yes I'm a fan of Kacha.... I love listening to her accent it's fabulous. I'm so glad you subscribed. And we are very grateful that you watched our video. Lel x x
First time I've seen Martyn! 😇😇😇 The legs on that piece are beautiful. Nice of the person who put it in the skip to have put it in upside down. I didn't realize that separating the cupboard parts from that crazy piece in the middle would require so much work. Good thing Martyn showed us what they looked like after he separated them, just in case I should try and do something like this myself.😱 I watched you mix that first dark blue color, Lel. How did you know that was the color you wanted? I see that as the mystery/vision part of what you do. Did you already know you were going to paint the tops black? I was holding my breath watching you do the stenciling. Just holding it with one hand, painting with the other, and at the same time knowing just how it was going to frame Morag. Me? I would have been measuring, taping, AND holding my breath for fear of messing it all up. It's your casual confidence that reveals the artist who knows exactly what she's doing. Blows me away. Every. Single. Time.😯😯😯⭐⭐⭐The staging is perfect BTW.
Yes it was good I saw those legs As for colour choice I generally plan in advance my colours so I know they will work.... I pick colours from decoupage or transfers or any interest even handles.... Just have a good look at your colours together before you start just to make sure they work. Or buy a cheap colour wheel from Amazon this will help you pick complimentary colours etc.... X x x
Nice job as always! Love the color scheme. The furniture had cool legs--always love those curved/wavy shaped legs. Is there a specific name for that? Loved the video with the two of you. I loved how you address the upside down/bottom side of furniture. As a graphic designer I loved any packaging project because you address the top/bottom/sides/backside, etc. I do the same now with furniture, cabinets, etc. I love a pop of color inside the cabinets or inside drawers. I love how you think about all of that. I hope you win the challenge. Just love your very artsy, painterly way.
What a comment.... Thanks so much. The legs are called barley twist legs but wavy curly works for me. Yes packaging especially as I ship a lot to London often it has to go upside down and I like it to look good from that angle.... And I have often have customers meet us at out van with excitement and don't like when the bottom faces out I need to make sure there are no drips underneath. Even if they will not be seen. I'm with you a pop of colour inside just adds an extra element especially if your selling... Thanks so much for watching us and being there from the begining. It means lots yo us. Lel x
Hi Mia, It's Martyn. I thought I would answer this one. The paper we use is a specialist paper we had manufactured for us. It's not something you can just buy off the shelf somewhere. It's a very low GSM weight paper and we had it made to work with our printers and our designs. You would not believe me when I say we tested hundeds of papers before we settled on the one we have made for us now. Sorry I cant be more help. Thank you do much for watching and commenting. Martyn x
So much about this worried me- the not sanding, not fixing broken bits but…. Wow. It’s beautiful. I do think the transfers took away from Morag. But overall beautiful.
I do furniture art I'm an artist, I'm not a restorer I don't want a factory finish in fact I do not want smooth at at all, I want lots and lots of rich texture. With Annie sloan paint no need to sand or prep..... so no need to worry... Thanks Lel x
Wonderfully transformed small cabinets from nothing much to upscale creations. Never satisfied with a nice but uneventful decoupage technique, adding the stencil added so much. OK, so I checked out many of the others who joined in this Ugly Duck challenge, and although many took pains to reconstruct broken and damaged pieces, the finished product more often than not, was not eye catching. Honestly, I was disappointed as I scrolled through and found nothing unique, none that came close to compare with yours. As I said, some put in a lot of work that transformed old and ugly pieces to something useful and pleasant. But in my estimation, you WON! Kudos kiddo.
Ha ha thanks my lovely friend sydni.... I missed a trick I was supposed to tell everyone to go and vote on the play list but forgot.... Ha ha never mind I feel you sydni restoring and furniture art are different.... Anyway I'm taking part in another of these for Halloween so there's a spooky creation coming.... Love to you sydni x x

May I ask whether you can use wood glue slightly watered down to attach the decoupage papers.
Hi Barbara, Wood Glue is a little stronger than PVA watered down or not. If the decoupage paper you are using is like ours and a little more robust than others then we are sure it would be fine. Cant speak to other lighter decoupage papers, sorry, thats not a great answer but we would suggested testing on a spare piece of wood or a board and seeing what happens if its not one of our papers.

Hi Mia, It's Martyn. I thought I would answer this one. The paper we use is a specialist paper we had manufactured for us. It's not something you can just buy off the shelf somewhere. It's a very low GSM weight paper and we had it made to work with our printers and our designs. You would not believe me when I say we tested hundeds of papers before we settled on the one we have made for us now. Sorry I cant be more help. Thank you do much for watching and commenting.

So much about this worried me- the not sanding, not fixing broken bits but…. Wow. It’s beautiful. I do think the transfers took away from Morag. But overall beautiful.
I do furniture art I'm an artist, I'm not a restorer I don't want a factory finish in fact I do not want smooth at at all, I want lots and lots of rich texture. With Annie sloan paint no need to sand or prep..... so no need to worry...
Thanks

Wonderfully transformed small cabinets from nothing much to upscale creations. Never satisfied with a nice but uneventful decoupage technique, adding the stencil added so much. OK, so I checked out many of the others who joined in this Ugly Duck challenge, and although many took pains to reconstruct broken and damaged pieces, the finished product more often than not, was not eye catching. Honestly, I was disappointed as I scrolled through and found nothing unique, none that came close to compare with yours. As I said, some put in a lot of work that transformed old and ugly pieces to something useful and pleasant. But in my estimation, you WON! Kudos kiddo.
