- I found this old farm house table on the side of the road, along with an old trunk and a bag full of baseball bats. This is the perfect opportunity to restore the table, and apply a few stain washes from general finishes.

You can't go wrong with a guy who refinishes furniture while watching " OLE YELLER " !!! 🤣👍🤣👍🤣👍🤣👍
This little table is a "make-up" table for a young girl's bedroom! I had one just like it when I was a girl!!! You did a good job bringing it back to life! (I am 79 now!)
How nice to trigger childhood memories❤
This is a vanity table, just like Jan Thompson says and, at one time, it had an oval mirror base attached to it or had a mirror hung on the wall. My sister and I shared one of these in the late 60s/early 70s.
You've done a beautiful job of restoration, but I must admit, I nearly cried when I saw the very dark stain come out. This piece of furniture, in my memory, was usually light, lighthearted, light wood or light colored, depending on the decor and taste of the young woman who used it. Lovely work, though, very lovely work. Always a pleasure to watch. ❤
Trish, you are correct. I had one for years that I got from my Grandmother. There was a sweet chair, also kidney shaped with spindle back, that went with it. My brother, now 79, had his first birthday picture taken while sitting on that chair. I hated parting with that table and chair, but passed it on to my cousin who has little granddaughters and I hope they find joy in using this dressing table. Oh, and there was always a frilly skirt on it and the drawer was for hiding secrets.
Yes we had it in our house too. My grandmother took fabric and pleated it and wrapped it around the table to the drawer on each side. She called it a vanity table and kept her little suitcase ( trunk of supplies underneath hidden by the cloth. Some people called it a writing table too.
@@annkoler3705 Mine was pink and there were swing arms that opened and closed the pink and white gingham skirt at the front.
Thank you to so many of you who suggested this was a vanity. I'm certain you are right, so thank you. This was in many ways a simple project, but I just couldn't say no when I saw all of the makeover choices : ) Big restoration coming to the channel soon! Thank you for all the support! Barry
OK, so no you've mixed stains. Now try to thin them. This way, you don't have to be in such a rush to wipe it off and result will be very contiguous. (even - sorry). You could always add another coat or change the color.
Have you seen this blond woman, professional, John's Refinishing? Now she does everything "the right way". She is just amazing. Will send you the link if you don't know her already. Don't "trust the process", but know the concept. MY 2 cents. Props for going into the story behind the desk. Nice touch, makes it interesting.
It is always the simplest pieces I love the most. Loved the dresser in the background...looks amazing!
Barry is way better than her.
@@ericbowen3813 It's not flattering to disparage one person in an effort to uplift the work of another person. I don't think Barry would appreciate that at all.
Since Trena learnt her craft from her professional Dad from being a kid, she has years of experience and knowledge to draw on so naturally what she does is going to be different from any other person doing a similar task.
I watch both her and Barry - as well as others who do similar things - and learn from both in different ways, and I appreciate that both share their experience with us. Thanks Barry. 👍
@@rockshot100 I do watch her. She is amazing, and I have learned so much from her. I am always open to criticism.
I love the fact that you left the note on the inside of the drawer. Such a considerate touch towards the history of this piece of furniture!!!!
That was fun to do
@kotsifou - I liked it, too! Mad City Modern is unique in how he restores/preserves a pieces history and tells a lovely story in his buttery voice 🤗
I love old pieces of furniture, and I love that you restore them. I appreciate Old Yellar playing on the TV too. 😊❤
Watching “Ol’ Yeller” while working in the shop…a great way to spend an afternoon.😊
Yes!
Beautiful! Magic! You’re not just preserving that table, you’re preserving Americana!
Thank you
It went from kindergarten play toy to nice little table, compliments of Barry.
I always enjoy your narration, nostalgia, and skill.
"Lassie" in the background.....classic in context, style, and overall class....nice touch.
Antique’s Road Show is really about the stories.
This table reminds me of one in my Aunts home. She covered the top in fabric and added a skirt all round in the same fabric. There was a chair from a car seat also covered in fabric. It was called the Princess bedroom as she did it for my 16 year old sister to escape the new baby at home, me! That was 76 years ago. My aunt was the person who taught me to sew . I still think of that bedroom and the work and love she put into it. Thank you Barry for doing the same with your furniture pieces.
Absolutely precious that you left the x/o’s on that wonderful table. Thank you.
My newly-wed wife and I refinished a family table like this as a first project together. This table now graces the bedroom of a 1937 bungalow we are restoring back to its original witness marks (as sensible). The table continues to remind us of our commitment to improve each other as we grow together. Thank you for your calm insights.
Wow- I don’t often hear that the younger generation has chosen to renew a house/cottage back to it’s original state. The world to me is more eager to bury the past, rather than renew it. Thank you for the breath of fresh air. 😊❤
@@Tiger-Heart The younger generation is doing this all the time now because it's what they can afford with today's housing market.
lovely, and now we get the gun show! thank you spring and summer!
Oh Barry! I had no hope for that poor little table, and it came out being just lovely. Well done. I love the gentle charm your channel has. So relaxing, and I learn a lot. Thank you.
Thank you Molly
Когда я смотрю Ваши ролики, я думаю о тех людях, которые его изготовили с любовью, о тех, кто купил этот столик, чтобы порадовать себя и свою семью, передавал его по наследству...каждая старая вещь это крупица истории. Спасибо Вам за Ваш труд и любовь к простым вещам.
That curved type table was often used as a vanity. I had one for many years that was a hand-me-down from my family. It had a matching stool.💜
Yes, that is what it looks like. Thanks.
Once again, BRAVO Sir Barry
I still have one that belonged to my husband’s family.
My cousins had one as well.
Some of the old kidney shaped ones had swing out wooden arms that a curtain would be tech two.
Best Furniture Guy on the Internet!!
Wow
Love the vignette at the end! Gorgeous stain against the yellow rug!
Hi Barry, you manage to ‘tick all the boxes’ with each and everyone of your videos:
First class craftsmanship.
A history lesson.
A very soothing and calming voice-over.
The end result was beautiful, especially when you opened the drawer to reveal its history. ❤️
Sending you best wishes as always. 🙏🤗🙏
Wow. This really means alot
@@MadCityModern we all look forward to videos each week.
Keep them coming my friend. 🤗
The tree it was made from lives again ... Thankyou ❤
When I saw the newspaper, I wanted to share with you a story. Today at our farm we are clearing some ground of old buildings, an old ice house to be exact. This farm belonged to my husband's mum and dad. We found an old newspaper inside the year was 1974! I enjoyed the comic strip section 😂. Pretty neat find .
So fun. Thank you for sharing this
Very nicely done! Loved the fact that you kept the magic marker “score” on the top of the drawer face, unseen for the most part, but not forgotten. I really like your thoughtful approach and commentary, and have subscribed to see more. Thanks!
I’m so loving this series of found treasures .
Barry, it looks great!!! Thanks for preserving, not disgarding!!!
I’m so happy you kept that small detail. And the colour is great
Your restoration of this well-used table was the spotlight of the video. 👍 But i couldn't help but notice Old Yeller was playing on the TV. That old movie made me cry when i saw it as a kid. I still like vintage movies and TV, and love watching you rescue old furniture. 😊
Love this movie
Love the old typewriter on top. Very funny. First time I laughed out loud today.
Whatever the restoration, you can't go wrong if you have "Old Yeller" as your companion. The grey looks very nice on that piece
I am just amazed how you caringly restored what was an inexpensive piece of furniture, and gave it a new life and purpose. The table is even better than when it was new. You have a heart and passion, and it comes through in your videos. I watch your channel because of the stories and how you respect each piece you work on. (Most refurbish, paint, and flip projects will not survive the test of time.) Love your dry humor.
Thank you so much!
That would be beautiful in an entrance hall with a vase of flowers. Beautifully done :)
Great idea!
I adore that final touch. Leaving the markings on the drawer was brilliant.
I truly love the way that you honor the story of these pieces. Beautiful job too. It makes for an excellent typewriting desk.
I enjoy the stories almost as much as the furniture restoration.
That made for a nice restoration. That is certainly a late 60s or 70s vanity. That was an old table cloth on the top. Many times they were used as plant stands with a cover like that, then turned over to kids. That stain turned out well. I usually use a sealer or even a thin coat of shellac to prevent blotchy finishes. Get an sandpaper eraser stick and clean your sand paper to make it last. I have been using them with success for 30-40 years. If you don't have a wood lathe you can make one fairly easy, maybe not for turning wood but to sand those kind of legs. A relaxed atmosphere, even watching old westerns allows for better work.
Gorgeous. Loved that you kept the writing on the inner drawer.
One of the goals in life is to own of this man’s pieces
Wow
5:05 my fav movie of all time OLD YELLER 🥺🥰
I always enjoy your unique style. It’s wonderful to hear the stories and yes you have a very calming voice
Such a cute little table. It deserved to be rescued. I don't think I would've used such a dark colour but it still looks good.
I’m actually in the process of renovating and restoring my parents’ house which was built in 1952 and have found all sorts of memories in walls and under floorboards. Old newspaper clippings, my mum’s school canteen rosters. It’s an ongoing journey.
When you find furniture thrown out and dissuaded it seems to me that the restoration of the piece is far more important than any history that the piece has been through. Usually it has been thrown out because no one thinks the history is important. Getting a piece back to the beauty of its beginning is far more important. You are doing a great service and I for one appreciate it. THANK YOU That is absolutely beautiful now.. ...
Might be a simple table but your finished piece is very elegant.
Cute little table and turned out so nice too. I think its probably from the depression era. Reminds me of The Waltons.
Looks good. Good job on the table. It looks like you're watching "Old Yeller".
I have this EXACT vanity. It was my moms, given to her in 1949 when she was 15. In the drawer, it has a photo of her, taken looking in the mirror, with her mom putting her wedding veil on her. She brought back to our home after her parents deaths in 1980s. I had it professionally refinished 6 years ago, and it looks identical to your refinishing job! I imagine it was regionally made, as yours came out of WI, and mom grew up in MI.
Hello Barry, please continue to tell the story’s beyond de the furniture that you restore 🤩🌷🌷
The table turned out beautiful Barry. Well done. 👏👏👏👏
Thank you kindly
I love the end of the video when you show shots of the piece before the restoration, and when finished. It always amazes me how beautiful they look, and how it's new lease of life will mean someone else gets the pleasure of using it for the next 20, 50, or 100 years.
I absolutely LOVE the stain!
pretty little piece. like that u left the doodle on inside edge of the drawer
Turned out beautiful and thinking maybe this was in a child room 🤗
I think you made the correct choices with this piece. It is absolutely beautiful!
Barry, I just loved this video. I’m so glad you left a hint of its history on the drawer edge. It is very pretty.
Thank you Lucretia
@@MadCityModern I loved this video. Always, Rasputia
I just want to say how much I appreciate the pace of your videos, thank you for amazing content
That's an old vanity. You'd put a skirt around it. Sometimes they'd have a small mirror.
Thank you for sharing this
This is such a cute table that would look great as an entry way table. I love how the color turned out.
Lovely job Barry. I'm sure if the table had thoughts it would be very grateful to be rescued.
It may not have been an expensive piece in its day, Sir. But you made it look like a million bucks! Great work! :)
It looks like a desk now. Just beautiful.
Thank you Rena
"Old Yeller", always makes me cry.😥😥😥
Same
I would hand that table to my daughter and she to her daughter. It would be a much loved family heirloom. We have a lot of furniture from my paternal grandmother.
I really appreciate the fact that you have turned a table that was bound for the tip into something really useful again .
That table would have been perfect to make into an ironing board. 😊
This table maybe somebody else's throw away. But I believe it's absolutely wonderful, you did an amazing job bringing it back to life.
Thank you
It's a wonderfully elegant little table. I think it is the shape of the legs, and its new "coat", as it were. That wooden trunk it just like the one I "rescued" in 1973, here in Canada!
Such a cute table and I really like your choice in the finish. Gorgeous dresser in the background at the opening.
The baseball bats are the best find! 👍👍👍 $$$$$$$$
What a great transformation using the dark stain. Your commentaries are excellent and so enjoyable. Best wishes Alison
Thank you Alison
Oh Barry! Good job on saving that memory detail! Such a personal touch. After a big day doing for others, I find your stories and voice soothing, restful, like I’ve learned something, too.
This is an old vanity, I think from the 1920s or 30s. They were often painted and skirted by ladies to use in their bedrooms. Lovely stain job!
Such a cute vanity. They sometimes a gathered material skirt around them. I love your videos!
Nicely done. I have this kidney shaped Vanity Table with a matching mirror laying over the top. It’s supposed to have 2 wooden arms that come out between the table top and drawer but they were removed. Their purpose was to spread aside the attached vanity skirt so you could access the drawer.
Thanks❤️
A* ⭐️
You go to the head of the class!
Perfect description!
I love the provincial color stain. I have used it on most of my unfinished red oak pieces. I usually cut it with 1/3 natural stain so it isn't as dark and the red from the oak doesn't show through. It becomes a nice golden oak color. The little table in this video has such a graceful shape, and the color makes it elegant.
Great suggestion. I will be trying this again. Thank you
Pretty little piece, I like what you did😊
I love your stories, and you have a great voice for telling them😊
Barry, that came out absolutely lovely. I love the stain choice.
Thank you Leslie
I have a lot of pine furniture left from the previous owners of my house. I sanded everything down and refinished them in amber shellac. I love the warm beautiful glow.
Wow. Awesome
Oh Barry. That piece turned out spectacular. Well done my friend.
Thank you
Love it. Beautiful job. All dolled up waiting for her new life.
I love small pieces like this one. There’s always a space somewhere for this type of useful piece. Turned out lovely!
When I heard it was pine, I immediately thought of the steel in vinegar trick to make it black. It’s beautiful the way you did it.
This turned out really great. Love that you left a little bit of its history.
Great job! As always. I so enjoy your commentary, tips and general conversational vibe.
Gorgeous doesn't require perfection. That piece is great.
Wow.. what a transformation.. now it is a table to be treasured ❤
I really like these videos but more than that, this guys voice is so soothing!
I was surprised just how lovely the top was even before the stain. I tend to prefer the warm, amber, honey color of pine but this darker stain is also quite nice. Elegant in its simplicity. Well done. Another one saved.
I love the dark stain!
Beautiful, you chose the right colour imo, made it look more elegant than pine. Thank you
I Love that desk!
You made an ugly table beautiful again Barry! Someone is going to be thrilled to own it! 😊
Thank you
What a great save, thanks again for sharing you talent with us!
I llike the finish. Makes it look as though the piece is old, but cared for--a patina.
Thank you
That little vanity table turned out beautiful and looks rather modern with the finish. You always do very good work.
Really like the way it turned out.
I would definitely make a place in my house for that lovely little table ❤️
What an interesting shaped top that little table had. Haven't seen one like that before. I'm sure it was glad to be rescued from the roadside
Your beautiful stories always make me cry :) What a lovely piece with a message from the heart . XO Barry
Thank you
Wow what a terrific transformation!
This is probably my favorite piece I've seen you do. I remember seeing this table at my grandmother's house when I was a little girl. It was in her bedroom. She used it as a makeup table.
Years ago, I donated a antique side table to a yard sale that was raising $$$ for a local organization.
I had the piece kicking around the house for about 20 years...using it for this and that.
When I helped the older lady who purchased it load it in her car, I flipped it upside-down.
There on the bottom my daughter (who was standing next to me) had written her name in crayon!...most likely when 5 years old.
My daughter, now an adult, smiled at me and said, "busted!"
