    OK, I know you probably won’t ever see this comment because this video was from such a long time ago. But I remembered you doing the smoked glaze and I thought it was so pretty. Fast forward to now, I just finished the top of a small three drawer chest with the smoked glaze. I had painted it with Fusion‘s little lamb and so it was gray. But, this smoked glaze made it beautiful! I am in love. Thanks so much for inspiring me. They say you can’t teach an old dog new tricks, well, I am 75 and I just learned a new trick. Take care, stay safe.

    I think we have all been there with the "infamous spray can fail" you were way more patient than I would have been. But, I have tried the following things to some degree of success. 1. Take the tip off and throw it into the hottest water and let sit for 15 minutes. Works 8 times out of 10. 2. Switch the tip with a known working can. 7/10 3. take the tip off and clear both ends with a needle. sometimes works. 4. Send the husband to the store for a new can and take a break. Works every time! Thank you for sharing your work and your encouragement.

    I purchased a dresser and nightstand over 20 years ago, and I've always hated the circular metal pulls on them, but I've never felt secure enough to buy new knobs and change them myself. You have really inspired me to look for knobs that I REALLY like and change them out myself. It's moved to my #1 project goal!

      You can do it. I changed the pulls on all of my kitchen cabinets and they look awesome! I bought them at Amazon. At first I bought the wrong size, and I exchanged them. I didn't even need a fancy tool, just a screwdriver. Trust me, if I can do it you can. It's a joke in my family that I am not handy. So my kitchen pulls are my proudest moment

    Hi Lauren, primer of any brand is sticky and hard to clean up so if you stop at any point, even for a few minutes you need to turn your can upside down and spay till the content comes out clear. This will extend all spray paint, especially sticky primers.

    I stumbled across your channel and am glad I did.😊
    I have a 1969 china cabinet made of mostly veneer over heavy composite board and some wood which I got last year for $75 ("My parents bought the best top-of-the-line set in the store and my Mum was so proud of her dining room", said the seller) and a 65+ yr old table and chairs of (HEAVY!) solid oak I bought last week for $250 ("It was the first suite of furniture my parents bought after they bought their first house." said the seller, then her 94 yr old Mum added, "I saved up for it by putting a few dollars in a cookie tin every month for 2 years and my husband surprised me because he was doing the same, so we felt like we really had something when we brought it home and set it up!" - both from FB Marketplace. Crazy thing is, they look like they are a set, even though the table and chairs from one and the buffet-hutch from the other were sold to other people before I saw either item. I want to paint them white and I have never tried painting furniture before so your videos are just great. I am more concerned about doing the proper prep than the painting, and then the right finish. I don't want it to look amateurish. Plus being that one is almost an antique and one is a vintage piece, they will require different approaches. Also, the wood filler thing is good to know.
    I am Canadian so not sure if I can get the same products locally, but I can show the ppl your video and get something close!😄
    Thank you for being so easy to follow.

      I'm 68 and bought a large hutch, 4 doors up and 4 down, i seperated top from bottom, took all top doors off, turned upsidedown, rebuilt the plain base to a shaped curved base, cut the top section down 8cm, added moulsings to the uprights of the top, painted it white chalk paint, added black metal handles and knobs, screwed it all together and now I have the most beautiful French wallunit.
      Because I live in an apartment where power tools are not allowed all sawing, cutting, sanding, drilling and screwing were done with hand tools.

    You need to run a candle or some beeswax along the drawer runners. The drawers should run much more smoothly once you've done that. You can also use a bar of soap. I'm sure there are commercial products that work too but I've never needed them. This trick can be used along the bottom or top of sliding doors too. Works a treat.

    One painting tip I use all the time when painting trim is to use a small pan and roller and roll the paint on the trim then stroke it out with the brush. This works with furniture too and really speeds up getting the paint on the surface.

    Spray paint not coming out right? Try turning the spray can upside down after even one use and spray paint out. Do this every time. Look at the hole in the nozzle. Be sure it’s not clogged. If it is, use a straight pin to unclog it.
    Love watching you and how thorough you are. Strong work, Lauren. Thank you.

    If you have a harbor freight around you they have a sprayer for 20$ (at least in my area). Get the gravity one but you also need a air compressor. If you like the spray cans you’ll love that more. Just add some paint from the can and a little bit of water and spray away. Saves time and money. Win win.

    when you get bum cans like that you have to hold them upside down in order to get them to spray. It is a malfunction of when it was filled. But if you hold it upside down it may work for you.

    I like the ease and speed of spray cans. But I’ve also found what you have. One can may spray great and the next we frustrating. Or not spray right at all. I also think it doesn’t last as long and is more expensive. So I stay away. I have an HVLP gun and love it. Again... I still use more but not much. Also, I really love that glaze you use. I had never tried it until I saw you. I bought some and fell in love. I did find the same ting you did. That first wipe needs extra glaze on it so that you get a more consistent look.
    For drawer hardware... the tape should keep the wood from tearing out. I have the kreg jig for hardware and I LOVE it. Got it to install my kitchen hardware and now use it for furniture.
