Thank you for watching! We really appreciate your support! What do you think about routing that design on the drawers? Would you ever try that?😵
That design is a bit intimidating lol we would have to get some serious practice first lol
@@diytainment Absolutely! but the beauty of it is that the lines are meant to look hand carved and a little squiggly (or even a lot squiggly). Haha
@@secondchanceohana yep very true lol
So brave and ambitious! And it turned out spectacular. My fave of all the dupes in the series.
Well thank you, Jen! We have been at a painting class all morning so we haven't had a chance to watch the others yet but they are all extremely talented furniture flippers so will accept that as high praise!😘
Dani, you are a WILD WOMAN with that router! I think the BEAST is UNLEASHED! 🤣😂😘
Haha Mom, I think You😬😂😘 are a little unleashed!
The routing on this piece is awesome! Nailed the design. I know it was a true labor of love but definitely a dupe!
Thank you so much, Emily! Definitely worth the work!😀😊
You just out did your dupe piece!! You took on 5 drawers & Anthropology only took on 2. Amazing work ladies. I can’t believe how you took on the router like a Boss!! Absolutely amazing ❤️❤️❤️❤️
Thank you, Lindsey! It was crazy and fun!!!!!🤗
Wow!!! That is absolutely incredible. And a whole lot of work!
Haha.... it was a bit of work but fun. Thank you, Lee!🤗
Oh my goodness it's stunning. Well done ladies for coming up with the design and for executing it so well. Such a great job.
Thanks so much, Emer! Dani has been wanting to try this for so long. When Clara came up with the Dupe challenge, it finally convinced her to give it a go. So glad she did! Very fun!😊
Ladies! Oh wow what a stunner, amazing dupe!! Everything about this works. And it was hard work but soooo worth it. Incredible, gorgeous! 😍 BTW, thanks for the Fuji review, I'm considering a new one this summer so the info is super helpful.
Thank you, Jenn! The Fuji is pretty amazing compared to the other 2 sprayers we have owned but it is also quite a bit more expensive. Definitely worth it though. It can put on a beautiful layer of paint or top coat in minutes.😮😊
You guys!!!! Such a great job…routing intimidates me you guys did fantastic!
Thank you so much, Sarah! All power tools intimidate me (Sherry) but Dani loves them and is really good at asking for help from our "Big Gun" wood working friends. (And they love to be asked!)🤗😊
Amazing work ladies, I love how this piece turned out! It’s a high end furniture for sure! A lot of work but well done ! ❤️❤️
Thank you, Maggy!!!! So excited to have it done. Whew!!!! crazy project but a great learning experience, for sure!😘
It turned out so cool! Using a router sounds really tough, but y'all did a great job!
Thanks so much, Holly! I think this one was a little bit tougher than usual because it was all freehand. Usually you can use an edge or a guide. We are just really relieved we didn't mess it up completely! 🤗😮😊
James Bondo forever! Ladies, this is lovely! The patience with the router....nope....couldn't have done it! Wonderful job!
Haha! Yes, our good friend, James..... thanks Kara! Yes, it took a little patience but got it down to 31 minutes for each drawer after the first 2 (which were really sloooowww....)😬😀
FIRST OF ALL -- you two are the cutest. Love love love your commentary together and omg mom "maybe you're sniffing too many bondo fumes" HAHA!!!! Okay okay. Anyway, you did such, SUCH a great job on this piece. Way to go outside your comfort zone and try a bunch of new things! I'm so impressed and inspired. Thanks for participating!
Haha... Thank you so much, Clara! This was such a fun challenge. Thanks for hosting!😘
Not my aesthetic, but I can't love this enough! This came together beautifully 😻
Haha... Yes it is one of those pieces that I love but wouldn't work at all in my house. Pow we can find a buyer. Thank you for watching!😍
I seriously cannot believe you carved all of that! So incredible!!!
Thanks so much, Taryn! It was a little scary but got easier with each drawer. 😬😊
I have had that anthropology dresser saved in my to-do list for months!! Just waiting for the day I get my own router. Your dresser turned out gorgeous!!!
Hi Ash, thank you! Yes, absolutely. It was a worthwhile experience!😬😅😍
You ladies are the cutest! And also, WOW, WOW, WOW, it turned out beautiful!!! So much work but so worth it.
Hahaha ... thank you, Walessa! It was really worth it although we weren't sure at first. Even our "BigGuns" friend, Jim, thought Dani was a little crazy for trying the "carving".😂😬😊
Yowzaa! This is gorgeous! It must have been the “James Bondo” that helped. 🤣 Mom is the best! 👏🌹. I would grab this piece in a quick minute! Absolutely beautiful! 👏🌹
Thank you, Anita! Yes, it must have been James Bondo, haha! So glad you like it!😊😘
That turned out great! I love that your handle placement doesn't interfere with the drawer pattern. Very nice :-)
Aloha, Purplewombat! Thank you so much! Haha ... we actually thought the handles would stand out on the drawers because they are so big. We were pretty surprised when we put it all together. You can't even see them from 5 feet away when you are looking straight on at it. Happy accident...😂😮😍
Wow that’s a technique I’ve never seen! Well done ladies! You’re brave and just jump right in!
Thank you so much, Katrina!!!! This is Sherry and I can't take any credit for the bravery BUT yes, I agree with you ... Dani is a "let's try it, what do we have to lose" kind of gal. I have a LOT of respect for her and that attitude.Thank you for watching and for your comment!🌴😎🎉
That was amazing! Looks really cool
I applaud your patience and trying something new! I don’t think I would of been as brave with the router! It turned out Fabulous! So proud of you ladies ! You definitely rocked this challenge 🤩 I may have to break down and buy that Fuji sprayer !
Thanks, Larissa! I definitely would have never tried this and didn't really think Dani would be able to pull it off BUT she did! Very proud of her for even giving it a go with NO back up plan. And yes, that sprayer makes the painting and topcoating SO FAST!😵😘
Yes ladies you came and conquered !!
Thanks so much, Melanie!!!! Super crazy but love the results.😍
Wow!!! This turned out really cool you guys! I love the imperfection of it!
Thanks, Marissa! It was certainly out of the box for us and yes, imperfectly perfect!! So nice not to have to worry about perfect lines. Yay!😍
Oh my. Wow. It’s is AWESOME!!!!! Great job ladies.
Thank you, Tracy! We are so RELIEVED that it came out so well!!!😍👋😘
Amazing work guys!
Thank you, Shannon! So glad you like it! Aloha🌴🤗
This was so inspiring... You did HAND CARVING! How awesome is that?! Wonderful outcome!
Yes, I still think we were a little crazy to even attempt it.... but it all turned out okay! Thanks so much, Moranda! The highest compliment to us is when hear that someone was inspired!
You guys are awesome. And so brave! Turned out brilliant!
Thank you so much, Bree!!!!😠🤗
Wow! What an incredible project! It looks amazing!
Oh Virginia, thanks so much!!!! We really appreciate all the encouragement!😘
Just gorgeous!!
Than you so much, Marie! We feel very fortunate and surprised that it turned out so well!😬😊🤗
WOW!!! You did an absolutely amazing job😍😍😍😍😍 I didn’t hear Dani say she was looking forward to her next “ routing” project🤔😂
Hi Nancy! Thank you! Haha.... yes, it took her 2 days and a sore back to do those 5 drawers. She enjoyed it but probably is not going to do anymore big routing projects for awhile. 😮🙃😊
Stunning!!
Thank you, Kimberly!😊😀
Wow! Lots of router work! This piece rivals the Anthropologie one! Great job!
Thanks Jim and Cindy! The design is a little out there and crazy but we really wanted to do something different and I think we did!😵😬🙃
You guys kicked it out of the park again! ❤️
Haha... thank you so much, Elizabeth! "Out of the park" or "out of Africa"? 😵😂😘
Wow the work that you did is amazing for this piece, well done its gorgeous
Thanks Met!!!! We are so ☺ with how it turned out and it was such fun!
That turned out amazing!
Hi, Timbra! Thanks so much!!! It was a crazy piece but fun!😍
What a piece of art. This is incredible. You nailed it!
Wow! Thank you so much, K!!!! It was definitely risky and scary but fun! Aloha 😍
Amazing job! You inspire me. So brave trying out new tools!
What? We inspire you?That is high praise! Thanks so much, Sabrina!🤗
Fantastic! You nailed it.
So glad you liked it!!!! It was quite the project (but we think that about almost every piece... haha)! Mahalo!😘😊
One of the best dupes!
Thank you so much, Jill! There are some good ones out there! 😍🤗
Such a lot of work!!!! Turned out great!
Thank you, Gail!!!! 😀😍
Wow y’all are so brave to try something so complex 👏🏻 well done
Thanks, Sarah! Brave or a little crazy ... but glad we did.
Finally I got to watch your video! Love this so much, gals! You knocked it out of the park for sure! 😍
Hi Tarnya, thank you so much!!! It was a really fun project.😊
@@secondchanceohana ❤️
what a project! you ladies have a lot of patience! turned out great!
Thank you, Janet!!!! We do like to experiment....Aloha😍
So cool. I love it!
Thank you, Michelle! so glad you like it. Thanks for watching!🤗
Aaaaamazing
Thanks so much, Robin! Yes, we are so happy with how this turned out and her new owner is over the moon!😍😘
It is AMAZING....what effort you two put into this stunner
Thank you, Mary! WE are still in shock that it came out as good as it did!😮😍
Wow what a job it was, looks great!
Thank you Gina! The carving was certainly a challenge, Thank goodness the rest of it was pretty straightforward!😍🤗😘
Turned out so good! I love it! I am so jealous of your sprayer!
Thank you, Terri! Oh my gosh, yes!!!! We love that sprayer! It's a game changer. Thanks so much for watching!👋🤗
Girls this is wonderful ❤️ you did a great job 💜
Thank you so much, Nikols!😱😘
Wow! Just...WOW!
Haha .... that little word says a LOT! Thanks!!😊
You are so brave to have committed to routing out this beautifully intricate design. Wow! Way to go! Your courage is infectious because I think I would use a router (start on a small project) because you just went for it like you have been doing for decades. Also, I love the “around the neighborhood “ scenery. So pretty 😊. Thank you for your hard work
Thanks, Shayna! When we started working with furniture, we decided we have to try something new (to us) on at least every other project. Sometimes, it is really frustrating but this one was easier than expected. Yay! Thank you for all your support!🤗
This is awesome. Great work.
Thank you, Mrs. Jax! We were actually pretty surprised that it turned out so well! And it was pretty fun after we got over being intimidated. 😵🤗😘
@@secondchanceohana I would be intimidated as well and I could imagine it would take me a very long time.
Amazingly beautiful and brave! I love your choice of inspiration, the big challenge you put yourselves into e and the wonderful final result!!
Thank you so much, Graciela! We feel incredibly grateful that it turned out so good as it was a bit of a gamble but sometimes it is good to take risks.😮😍
Beautiful Job!!!
Thank you, Cindy!!!! We really appreciate you watching and commenting!🤗
How fun!
Thank you so much! Yes it was.😍
Very organic! Your bravery is inspiring! 😂 Good job
Haha.... thanks so much farmgirl! That was a fun one!😅
Great work!
Alpha Denise! Thank you so much!!!!😊
Wow nice job! I love you energy and love for life!
Thanks so much, Rina! We find a little painting and a lot of laughter to be very therapeutic.😂😀😂
Amazing!
Hi Edna! Thank you for watching and for your encouragement!🤗👋
What a labor of love! You ladies did a fabulous job, very beautiful! :)
Thank you so much, Rachael!!! It was a hard challenge but also a good one. And we love the results. Aloha🤗👋
Wow! What an ambitious transformation! I love it, even more so than the inspiration. I've been thinking of getting a router. Probably wouldn't have considered an application such as this but you never know🤷♀️ Fantastic ❣️
Thanks, La Vonne! I know! This was all Dani. I mean, I love it BUT I would have never thought to try something like this. Glad we did. It was fun!😊
WOOOOWWWW, what a job of work!! I'm far from being ready to try something like the routing you did but I might get there...in the meantime, you're both amazing!
Oh ... Tawny, that's so sweet! Yes, give it a try. It's a little nerve wracking at first but worth it! Thanks for watching!😍
Great videos, always happy
Thank you Decent! Glad you like them. We do enjoy our work.🤗
Such perseverance!! Beautiful job. Inspiring and creative. I have a router that was handed down to us when my husband dad passed a few year ago. It intimidates me every time I look at it lol. One of these days I’ll just have to commit to leaning it.
Hi Melissa. Thank you so much! Yes, it was so intimidating for Dani at first and I am not sure she would have attempted it on her own. It is so helpful to have friends (or family) that can help walk you through it at first. (Not because it is difficult but more just for support.) Now that she is comfortable with it, I imagine we will be incorporating it into more of our projects in the future. 😀
Great job 👏
Blanca, Thank you! 😃 It was a crazy project but really fun overall!😍
There is a whole poem called "When I Am Old I Shall Wear Purple". I claim it so can you, LOL!
Haha... yes, we know that poem!!!😂😅😂
That was so challenging love the end result
Angela, thank you so much! We are definitely relieved and excited to see how this came out. It was a little scary but fun, Thanks for watching!🤗👋
Wow!
Thanks, Cathy!
Nice job ladies, you were brave taking on the router
Hi Sharon! Thank you so much! This was the perfect piece to try it out on since it was okay that the routing lines came out a little squiggly. 😂😍😀
WOW! Tons of time!!!! Excellent
Hi Kelli, thank you so much! The learning curve was huge but by the time we got to the 3rd drawer, it wasn't too bad. Drawers 3,4 & 5 took about 30 minutes each to carve/ Thanks for watching!🤗😍🤗
Cuddos to trying new things. Next time I would use a finish router. They are lighter weight and easier to manipulate. Also, if you set your plunge stop it will prevent the gouging.
Hi Joe, Thanks so much for the tips. That router was borrowed but we may be purchasing one in the future so will definitely look for a finish router. Thanks🤗
Very nice! It reminds me of tapa cloth.
Thank you, Diane! 😊I had to look up tapa cloth and yes, it really does look like it.So I guess that design could be either African or Polynesian. Nice!🌴😍🤗
Gorgeous
Thank you so much, Stephanie! Aloha🌴😊
@@secondchanceohana welcome.
This is amazing! I wouldve just stenciled on the white design over black paint, but your carved-out design will be more lasting.
Thank you, Evie! That would have been a good alternative if we messed it up. Certainly easier and less scary.🤗
Good job 👍
Thank you, Connie! And thanks for watching!!! Aloha🌴🤗
It sure is beautiful
Thanks, Caroline! How are you doing this weekend?
That’s incredible that you could start out not using a router and do THIS!!
Thanks Leslie! It helps to have a good teacher and to spend a couple hours practicing first.😊🤗
I think your definition of cold and mine are definitely two different things. 😂😂 Great job on this chest of drawers. It looked great.
Thanks, Chanda!!! That is probably true about the cold. I think we are a little spoiled with our winter weather here in Phoenix. Where do you live? 😀
@@secondchanceohana I live in western Canada at the foot of the Rocky Mountains. We have 5 feet of snow and our temperatures were unusually cold this winter (-40) but thankfully we are back to seasonal temperatures of -5.
@@chandarussell Yikes!! Yes, we lived in Washington state for 25 years. I remember one year when it got down to -20. Too cold for me and a big reason that we live in AZ now, Brrrrrrr!
step away from the James Bondo fumes Dani haha
Haha .... yeah that stuff kills brain cells. Yikes!!!
Wow! That must have been an absolute bugger cutting that design out with a router. Fantastic job! I have a small hand held router. I tried to cut a rabbet on a set of folding closet doors. Screwed it up so badly😵. I need to learn more about using a router. 🙃👍👍👍👍
Thanks, Deborah! One tip we learned from our friend Jim is that you absolutely need a good sharp carbide tip and we spent quite a bit of time practicing and it was still a challenge but since it was supposed to look hand-carved we just embraced the imperfections. 😮😍
6:31 Love the commentary! 🤣
Haha... thanks, Beth! We get totally corny sometimes but it makes it more fun for us.
Wowsers You Ladies Set the bar REALLY High BUT I am NOT Forced to Step Outside my comfort zone haha ..As Y'all's Dresser Is TOP NOTCH...Just Gorgeous...and I Love it Soooo Much I'm Determined to Keep watching your video tutorial and Do Something Amazing ....I Just Pray it comes Out Half as Good as Yours🥰❣️❣️👍
Yay!!!! So glad to hear you are inspired to try it, Debra!!! You go girl!!! And thank you! You are wonderful and amazing!😘
@@secondchanceohana aww thank you🥰❣️👍
Absolutely lovely. What did you finish the surface with? Polyurethane or Shellac. Please specify the brand. TY
Hi Camille, thank you so much! In the carved crevices, we wanted a flat finish so used Modern Masters Dead Flat Varnish and over the paint we used Varathane water-based polyurethane. Both of those have Amazon links in the description above if you want more info on them. Thanks for watching!😀
wow guys! that turned out absolutely perfect. My delivery guy gave me a router, stll haven't been gutsy enough to use it
Thanks,Twitch! Oh you should just try it out on some scrap boards and get the feel for it. Bet you would be good at it.
Well done! Everything was beautifully aligned. I don't think I would use a router on a drawer or anything for that matter. But you guys did a beautiful job.
Thanks, Sally. Haha ... yes, we will probably not do another router project like that for awhile (maybe not ever?)😮🤗😊
👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
🤗😍😘 Thank you, Designabeej!
Nice work. However if i try, i think i will create a jig for my router.
That is a great idea, Brigitte!!!!
The piece turned out nice! Well done! That router is really no joke! Had one touch my finger at work once 😵💫 It wasn’t a good day after that heck wasn’t a good week because of the constant pain😅
Thanks guys!!! Yikes! Yeah, those power tools can do some damage! 😦😮🙃
@@secondchanceohana yeah drilling pain is a different pain from like cuts and chops. Cuts are usually a clean sever of nerves but a drill mints up those nerves 😟 😖
@UC3C1%E2%98%B9%F0%9F%98%A3FwrujWRDYDPmiy9Q1eA Ugggh! Have you used a router since then? I'm not sure I would want to after an injury like that....
@@secondchanceohana oh yeah it was someone that I was working with that accident tapped me with it lol. Had the same issue with a sander a few years back all I saw was white where my arm got sanded 🤣🤣🤣
It comes with the work lol 🤷🏾♂️
I would totally router furniture, but not that much. :-) It came out pretty good though.
Thanks, K! Yes, this piece is a very specific look and definitely not for everyone. Thanks for watching and for your comment!😀
Looks great - like African style - and it did not have to be perfect lines for that - I actually think it adds to the charm that it’s a bit uneven 😊👍🏼💚
Thanks Helene! Yes, we agree! It adds to the hand carved look! Thanks for watching and commenting!🤗😍
James Bondo 😆🤣
Haha.... I knew you would get a kick out of that Jenn! 🙃🤗
It’s better than the original.
That is so sweet, Sara! Thank you so much!😍
Bless your heart for spending valuable time with your mom and for trying. This just isn't your forte.
Well, thanks for watching anyways, Uoo Hoo. And thanks for sharing your opinion. 🤗
Why r u not wearing masking while you r painting with that spray gun.
Hi Shirley! That is a great question as the best practice is ALWAYS to wear a mask and honestly we do sometimes and forget to at other times. We also use paints that are no- voc or low-voc, work in a well ventilated area and use a superior sprayer with very little over-spray. Thanks for the reminder!!!!😀
This is sick! Y'all did an amazing job for a first time router! I would have made a mess of it. It looks so awesome! ❤
Haha ... thanks so much! It was risky but worth it!🤗
I like purple. Those drawers have got so many teeth!
Haha! They sure do. Thanks, Dawn!
M
Hi Caroline! Not sure what M means? Thanks for watching, sweet😘 friend!
My goodness
@@hephzibah1966 Yes, it was quite out of our "comfort zone" and usual style.
