The hutch is so much better!! You could lighten a few more spots or just leave it. Great job Zeb!! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Love the hutch. Perhaps white wax? Would love to see something like that in the next part of the series... XO
OMG, that is absolutely gorgeous!!! I would just wax.
Love the three farm tray stand! 🐑🐄🐓
That brush attachment worked a treat on those nooks and crannies! Excellent job, Zeb & Jami! Happy Birthday, Jami!!! I think a wax finish, or even a hint of white wax would be a lovely finish. Its beautiful. Whatever direction you go, it will be lovely.
Use the clean strip liquid, cover with saran wrap to keep hot/moist, and it will be ready to go in 15 min. works awesome 👌
Citrus Strip stripping gel works great!! I use it all the time.
The buffet looks amazing. I look forward to seeing how you finish the piece.
I love the hutch after being stripped! So warm and aged looking!
Leave it as is! What a gorgeous piece. Happy Birthday Jami!
Happy Birthday Jami!!
I LOVE the way it is now!! I use the orange gel stripper, it works amazingly well!!
Stunning unusual olive wood tones! Your hutch is a prized 1880-1900 French antique "buffet or vaissellier". Many families still proudly display them in their formal dining room. Excellent refinishing by Zeb. So relieved you haven't painted it yet. Truly a high end piece for your beautiful home.🎉😅
Oh please leave it……I love the way it turned out
Wait to see it on the new floors then YOU decide. Already the detail is popping way more than before!😍
Looks so much better lighter but personally I’d either paint it or give it a paint wash so you still see the wood coming through. I’ve a similar piece that I bought here in France for €30! Bargain and I painted and distressed it as that suits my decor and it looks incredible 🥰 Can’t wait to see what you do to yours 😊
Wow! The hutch is definitely an upgrade with that thick stain gone. Such a beauty ❤
Let it soak in awhile… the perfect thing to do with it will come in time 😊
Happy, happy birthday, Jami 🎉 I hope someone baked you that coconut cake you shared with us years ago! It was amazing!
The hutch looks so much better stripped! It goes with your decor. It is a beautiful piece. I love the color you painted with today, too!🩵
I love how the hutch turned out. I kinda like it natural wood. The little tier trays are super cute
Love the color! Just wax and leave as is. Great contrast with the white and more modern farmhouse!
I think you should do the bleach technique! I would get the pool cleaner, on sale at Walmart, it is same as the “soft wash” used by house cleaners (pressure washing)
Hi y’all. I received my 2 planters, milk glass cake stand, Big Top and Golden Ticket yesterday! My planters will be used in 2 guest rooms I still have to remodel and am anxious to try out Golden Ticket!😃💕 Thanks a bunch to the girls getting everything to Texas in perfect condition.😎
Yay! Thanks for your support. Enjoy your spoils ❤❤❤
I love et the way et is..
I Love et stripped!
Well Done..
You two are such a Great Team!
I would start with a white wash 50/50 paint and water . You want to see the wood grain it’s beautiful it just needs to be lighter. Maybe do a 2nd paint wash with a linen 👍🤗🙋♀️
I love the music! Sen did an awesome job on the hutch!
Looks so much better!! Excited to see it finished & what y’all choose to do!! I know it’s going to be beautiful ❤❤
I have a set of plates similar to that. They are seasonal with snow scenes I can't wait to use them for Thanksgiving and Christmas. I bought the set a while ago in Galveston. Paid around $300 for the set of 8 with some extras. BTW, love the natural wood look. It looks great in contrast to the walls and floors.
That Blue Hills mix is awesome.
Love it as is for now. You can always paint it in the future.
It looks beautiful! Natural is the way to go. It looks great in your room
Looks waaaay better! Man, you got a lot done on that intricate piece in just one day! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
I so prefer the wood look rather than paint. A nice medium brown would look amazing. When I use oven cleaner to strip I use the water blaster and it works so well and is way less work
This is a really beautiful antique hutch.Gorgeous!
That was a great compromise on the buffet. Loved how it turned out!
The hutch looks great, such detail!! Beautiful
Happy Birthday Jami! ❤
Loved the thrift haul and stripping of the hutch. Beautiful hutch. Enjoy your holiday weekend.❤
Looks good! I like this version. It sells like crazy in my market and gets top dollar. Lye on pine creates this color that everyone wants.
It turned out gorgeous 😍
Oh….. it is getting there ! I didn’t realize HOW dark it was until you stripped some of it off. Hard decision…I 100% trust your decision on what to do…you two amaze me with your work and visions for items!
How cute is that 3 tiered tray/stand is !
Again you two…WELL DONE ! 🧡🧡🍁🍁🧡🧡
Love all the sheep things, my granddad was a sheep herder way back in the day. We love all things sheep. Your hutch is awesomely beautiful.😊
The hutch does look old and it’s very beautiful❤
That looks like an early pc of furniture. I got just a glimpse of one of the drawers and that dovetailing looks hand done.
I agree that it's an old piece -- the size & dark stain made it look imposing & not quite endearing ... Now that it's lighter -- you can see all the details & carving & it's not scary anymore ! You want to get close & examine & admire it ... And wonder about its lineage & age ....
But then what do I know !!😂
It is beautiful with the lighter color.
Love the natural color! Clear wax
It looks Edwardian to me. Here in the UK there are many of them. I had a very big one which I bought in New Zealand when I lived there. It had originally come from here, travelled there, was loved then dumped into a basement which got flooded and finally ended up in a charity shop where I bought it. I decided not to paint it and loved it after I restored it. Sadly after downsizing we needed to get rid of it. However, we couldn’t get anyone to buy it or even get an antique dealer to take it. It’s considered to big for todays houses. So I had no choice but to take it apart and salvage as much of the parts as I could. They are currently on my to do list to up-cycle.
Happy Happy Birthday Jami!!!
It looks much better!❤
I really like the non-finish 0f the hutch. I wish there was more of detail example of your process, but I kinda got it. It looks great!!!!!
Happy Birthday Jami!
We had a buffet that we stripped and clearcoated. It's in our living room on a wood floor. Looks great. I guess I'd just look and decide. But either will look fabulous I'm sure.
It does look better than originally but i would still paint it because you can't see the detail of this beautiful piece.
I would paint it, in a bold colour so that it becomes a focal point in the room
Cheers, love your show!
Marlene
It looks fantastic! I like it just like that.
Anything you choose will be perfect! ❤❤❤
You guys should invest in a soda blaster/ sand plaster. Was one of my best purchases. No more toxic chemicals, I strip the furniture in a tent so that I can collect the used soda and reuse it. So it’s cost effective too
Oh I'm so glad you didn't paint it. I was afraid to watch 😂
Gorgeous piece! I love the original finish so it would look good with a new dark finish but the way you lightened it up also looks nice.. this hutch is too beautiful for paint in my opinion..
I love this!!! I think I’d try bleaching it!!!! I’m sure it’ll be amazing with whatever you choose.❤
Wow it turned out gorgeous, all the work put into it stripping I don’t know but I think I’d leave it for now. Live with it for a bit, the raw wood is really appealing right now. ☺️💕 decide after the floors are finished 👍
Oh I love the new look!❤
I have this same hutch. except mine doesn't have the glass cabinet doors on top, mine has solid doors just like the bottom does. I looked and looked for a cabinet to turn into my Apothecary...i absolutely love love this hutch..I would have been so disappointed if you had painted it but I know to each their own. I love the brass like hinges or really they aren't hinges, I personally have never seen anything like them before they have to be inset perfectly aligned to get the doors to attach, very unique. So enjoyed this video.
I would paint it!
It's beautiful,leave as is!!!
It looks great ! So beautiful!
I am not sure. I like the look now. What about clear wax then white wax? It will look gorgeous painted as well! I trust your process! Me, I am Dionne Woods paint with lots of color, however might not be French cottage enough. Love your videos! I get so many ideas from your creations! And I am obsessed with Debi’s DIY paint! There simply isn’t any other paint like it! Go go Jami & Zeb! ❤
Looking good!
Hi lev like this nature wood is fantastic I love kiss from portugal ❤❤❤
I like it much more as it's been lightened. I would have to see stain color of floor and then I could make a better decision. I have a feeling it will be painted eventually, lol!!
We had a cabinet similar. Ours was an 1880s hunter’s cabinet.
Beautiful hutch! I vote for a clear finish/sealer. FYI the music gets really loud then the volume has to be turned up to hear what you are saying.
Beautiful!
I think it would look good even lighter.
Looks great. The lighter color isn't as imposing. I've always used Zip Strip. I've never had to use plastic wrap over it. MANY wood turnings have been devarnished with Zip, steel wool and/or a wire brush. Though there are really great Dremel attachments and soft sanding pads that can help get the stuff out of the turnings. I also used Minwaxes stripper cleaner works great. You might have to use Oxcalic acid if you have some tough areas, but I always love the variations.
Good luck on the floors I don't envy you that project! I just did a small section and trying to keep dog and cats off of it! Thankfully the kids are grown 😊 I now know why people used wall to wall carpeting over hardwood floors!
Where I used to live my boyfriend and I used to paint and refinish furniture. There was a place that did dip stripping. We never used it but I heard it worked beautifully and every nook and cranny got stripped. Maybe look around with big intricate pieces like that. ?????
I've tried everything; I end up sticking with citristrip. The older formula smelled better and worked a bit better. Great job on such a large beast
Happy Birthday 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
I pushed send to soon….I like citistrip…then sand then bleach and set out in sun…my piece turned out gorgeous…beautiful hutch you have…
Love the Johnson Bros. china! I enjoy watching you two work together. Either light sage, gray, or cranberry with a dark wax would make the piece pop.
The China is my grandmas ❤️
What about using a Carbide Scraper? Can't wait to see what you do with your Hutch
I definitely like the lighter color.
I’d paint it with your favorite SPMP mix that’s sierra like Apothecary - Flour Sack & (I can’t remember). Hopefully you’d get lots of chippy goodness followed by white wax though, dark wax would be over the top great.
I like how it came out, yeah you were right it was too dark and heavy looking before. Leave with it like that for a few months like that, and see if you decide to wax it (mate) or paint . Really like like that.
I love it now.
I have a Buffay piece so similar it looks like they might be the same manufacturer, I know I was told the piece is English late 1800s but who knows. The difference is my peace has marble or the piece you have is wood table top. We paid $1600 for it 20 years ago. I’m excited to watch your video to the end and maybe I’ll have the same guts to do something different to it😊
White wash it , maybe a grey wash over the detailed bits ?
It looks like a Mediterranean piece..now. I would have just chalk painted it is too much work to strip a piece with different pieces of wood and they never match...but you guys worked very hard and it's yours...think on it you'll figure it out! 🤗 Great video!
It’s beautiful as is but would be pretty painted too. I struggle with this problem ALL the time with pieces I’m refinishing for my vintage shop.
I love those dishes
I’d paint it in a pale sage or pale French blue.
I would brush several coats of bleach to brighten up even more and rinse and leave out in sun to dry. Then maybe do a tan or white wash to even out tones
You guys are smazlng!!!❤
Looks better than it did. Personally I like the wood without paint. That being said, I’m sure whatever you guys decide, it will turn out great.
Looks beautiful
Crockery...dark wax......it's beautiful
I would paint it.😊
My favorite stripper is Citristrip in the spray can (the gel form makes a gloppy mess). I usually let it sit 30-60 min. Instead of a scraper I use 0000 steel wool dipped in water or mineral spirits to scrub it off. White oil wax might be nice, but I think I'd really love to see you paint it! What about painting it the same color as the green legs of your bar stools in the next room to carry that pretty color through?
Where did that beautiful clock come from ....I never saw that last Saturday night :( love that color and how it all came out. Waiting for the big reveal ❤❤❤
It was thrifted ❤. It was on the haul but you might have missed it
Just dark wax!!!!!!!changed my mind !!!
I would paint it a cream color and then put a touch of dark wax on it! Then, decoupage the sides of the drawers with a fun color and pattern that goes with Grandma’s china. It will be pretty, no matter what you do! White wax over the natural wood could be pretty too. 🤷♀️
I like this idea, however if you can tone down the dark wax, I would.
It turned out beautifully 😊
Are the drawers dove tailed? Is the back of the piece wood slats with possibly an ink mark of some sort? Are there nails? Screws? All these things will tell some sort of age. It could be a piece that was made in another country.
It is beautiful!! I would not paint - just seal after needed fixes are completed.
