Well, To be completely honest I watched this video out of curiosity, and also to support your channel. But I did not think I was going to like this technique or the end result. So consider my mind officially blown🤯…. It turned out amazing!!!!! it really looks like wood😮 and maybe white washed wood/paint washed wood. I just think this was the first time you ever used these products. So great job going outside your comfort zone and trying something completely brand new.
After you used the wood grain tool, I was like this is a hot mess! 😂 The next step had me seeing your vision. Phew! Good job & thanks for bringing something new to the table!
They look great! I thought it looked totally fake until the final stain went on the pieces. Wow! That really tied it all together. It looks like real wood. You did an awesome job!
Always good. Not everyone can do what you do. Trust me. People with their best intentions. It's definitely an art form. When to stop, color combos. Even hardware choices. There's an artist inside you that creates some really beautiful projects. Good job, Lauren.
I love Retique it…I got the nerve to buy it finally a couple months ago. I didn’t have a good experience years ago with the graining tool, and I was skeptical that I could get it right. I was so wrong. You do have to practice, but there are videos to instruct. This has opened a whole new area for me…laminate is much cheaper to buy to flip. And my customers are crazy over it. I haven’t had any problems selling anything. Lauren you are very brave to start out with a round table lol I just stick with flat surfaces! Great job…they look beautiful
you cannot change the past but you can change the future . it's NEVER a late start, it's just a start and that could be today . it's only yourself that's holding your back, believe in yourself because the perfect time is now .
The process was amazing to see and I was skeptical as to how they would turn out. They are beautiful! Great job Lauren! Your creativity is wonderful! Congrats on the new store!
I can’t believe how beautiful these turned out, even as I watched the process, I was overwhelmed by the instant magic that this product produced, I imagined that you were almost feeling the same way , super great job 👏 👏👏
These look amazing! Great job. I used Retique It on my 70 year old laminate countertops and everyone thinks it is butcher block! An amazing product and easy enough for a beginner to use (I am beyond an amateur). Takes way more skill to do something round!!! Impressive.
They look great. Spot on dupe! I used Retique It on my kitchen counters to mimic butcher block. Turned out great. It is definitely a trust the process product. But all turned out well and Iove them.
I love these, plain and simple, no embellishments. My dad used this technique 60 years ago on their kitchen cabinets and I remember watching in awe as a kid. You did an amazing job as usual. 😊
I’m surprised to say that “I really do like them”! You do such good work. I wish you were closer. I just ordered an upholstery cleaner because you’ve inspired me. I’ve always redone furniture just because I liked nice things but never had the money so I’ve been shopping garage sales before it was “the thing” to do. Love your channel
Lauren, I had serious doubts about the outcome of those tables as the original laminate on them was horrible. I am absolutely stunned by the outcome, well done!
Looking forward to seeing the work on the storefront. This turned out way better than I thought possible. I would love to see you do it on something bigger. Or more elaborate. Keep on smiling, Lauren. You are on your way to the top.
I have used this previously on a end table that was in terrible shape in my home. It worked out well with the graining tool. Looks just like wood. Love this product. I am only updating my older finishes to update my decor at home.
I ordered the kit a couple months ago! I haven’t used it yet because I’ve been so sick but I’m definitely gonna whip it out now. These look pretty cool! I kept feeling like you were making a giant cake. 😂😂
I’m a huge wood grain/faux bois’ fan and artist. I find it’s good to keep the paint/glaze wet in small areas, not the whole top or circle. Then slide and rock the tool, gives more variation and knots along the grain. Great efforts and like that new paint!
I’m seriously impressed how these tables turned out! This style of painting kitchen cabinets was very popular in the 80’s, but it never looked as good as you have done! 😊
I was not sure about this product. But when you applied the topcoat I am stunned at how much it resembles real wood! It looks amazing! Thank you for sharing this new way to do furniture! Excited to see more videos on your new store! I hope you have a smooth transition with the store. B~}
Awesome job Lauren!! They look amazing!! Something you'd buy in a high end store for sure. They'll look great in the new store!! Can't wait to see how that all turns out!
Well, I had my doubts when you were using that wood graining tool. They were looking pretty rough. And to start using a new product like that on round tables took a lot of courage. It turned out awesome! Better than I could’ve imagined.
Thanks for the introduction of a new product. Ur project turned out better than I would have expected. Congrats to you for figuring it out. Great LQQK.
Wow! I had my doubts at first. I didn't think it would look good. But you did a great job and pulled it off for sure. I had never heard of this product before.
I truly enjoyed watching this process. What an interesting product, on really interesting pieces. They turned out beautifully. You should be so proud!!!😊
I have done some of this with the tools. I hated the way it turned out. Sooo that being said these turned out beautiful. I loved the color. Thanks for sharing.
Yep, like a bunch of other commenters here, I also wasn't sure how it would turn out and if I'd like it, but you totally changed my mind when you applied that last coat of gel stain before the sealer. What a fantastic outcome! Great job!
They turned out quite beautiful, years ago we (about 30) we did a dining room table with an antique kit and it turned out real nice too, used it for years and then handed down.

thanks!! appreciate your support! I loved it too and had to trust the process!!
Yes same here you took the words right out of my mouth. I was like let me finish the video and see the out come and they came out nice
I love the final result. They look totally different, a very modern look. I'd love to see you do a dresser or coffee table.😊❤
Oh wow this might be my favorite before after !
After you used the wood grain tool, I was like this is a hot mess! 😂 The next step had me seeing your vision. Phew! Good job & thanks for bringing something new to the table!
I thought the same thing!
Looks similar to a birch log. Looks great!
They look great! I thought it looked totally fake until the final stain went on the pieces. Wow! That really tied it all together. It looks like real wood. You did an awesome job!
me too! definitely had to trust the process! thanks for watching!!

I can’t believe how beautiful these turned out, even as I watched the process, I was overwhelmed by the instant magic that this product produced, I imagined that you were almost feeling the same way , super great job 👏 👏👏
yes I totally was! so glad I stuck it out! 😍
WOW, there was a moment there, halfway through, when I began to worry, but boy did you pull this off beautifully. Bravo!
Thank you very much! I was a bit worried to but so glad i stuck it out and kept going! 😍
I love the end result. You did a great job for your first time with this new product. I had my doubts at first but you nailed it. Great Job
These look amazing! Great job. I used Retique It on my 70 year old laminate countertops and everyone thinks it is butcher block! An amazing product and easy enough for a beginner to use (I am beyond an amateur). Takes way more skill to do something round!!! Impressive.
Great job Lauren .I love how you will try anything,and excited about the shop front.
They look great. Spot on dupe! I used Retique It on my kitchen counters to mimic butcher block. Turned out great. It is definitely a trust the process product. But all turned out well and Iove them.
You did a great job, Lauren! I love how they turned out. 😃
I like them better than what they were before you DIY's them. They are gorgeous. Good job!!
I love these, plain and simple, no embellishments. My dad used this technique 60 years ago on their kitchen cabinets and I remember watching in awe as a kid. You did an amazing job as usual. 😊

I'm excited for this one. I hate working with laminate.
All I can say is WOW! Cannot believe those are fake wood!
Loved taking the journey with you...loved it so much, I replayed for my hubby!!
So excited for you and Neman and the new store!!!
LOL the magic box!! Thax Niemann. The pieces looks Nice!
I didn't think they would turn out but they really turned out great. Good job.
Lifting those takes the place of exercise :) Bondo is amazing. What a fascinating wood primer and gel coat product. Lovely!
Awesome job! These are absolutely gorgeous.
WOW !!! Turned out beautiful 👍❤️
Spray lacquer thinner from a spray bottle under the laminate as you pull it up. Comes off much easier😉
Love how these turned out!❤better looking than your inspiration pieces!!!so inspirational watching your dreams come true! Congrats on the new store!
thank you and thank you !(:
WOW! That came out beautiful.
This is one of my most favorite flips. Love the color. Great job. Pcoff

Hi, you did great! They look real.
I grew up in the 60’s-70’s my mom did this technique in our kitchen. You did great!
Your tables came out….Beautiful ! I’m going to try doing this on a small side table I have .
Yes. They look amazing
I ordered the kit a couple months ago! I haven’t used it yet because I’ve been so sick but I’m definitely gonna whip it out now.
These look pretty cool!
I kept feeling like you were making a giant cake. 😂😂

Turned out really nice. Definitely a strong match
This is and amazing product! You need a furniture lazy susan to make projects like that easier.
Amazing job, great results, definately on my list of future projects. Thanks for the great tutorial!!!👍
Lauren, they came out beautifully!
Gorgeous!
They turned out quite beautiful, years ago we (about 30) we did a dining room table with an antique kit and it turned out real nice too, used it for years and then handed down.
Simply stunning! I would have these in my home in a heartbeat.
