I remember finding a ‘man doll’ from a family set when I was cleaning in the dark and scary recesses under the stairs. I felt sad that the set had been sold without him. Soon ‘man doll’ was in our community & local buy& sell Facebook pages looking for his family… climbing a chain mail fence, looking in the letterbox, sitting on a bridge contemplating his lost family ….. people really got invested in man dolls quest to find his family! 😂 It was a lot of fun. He never did find them and then because I’m a sentimental loser, I kept him, because we’d had good times together! He’s now in the spare room ….. which needs a big clean out! 😅
I felt it deep. I just returned from my dentist. I have a trumpet no one will ever play. I got rid of legos a year ago (wish I hadn’t so i could gift them to future grandchildren. I have a vintage Sorry set. I have ancestral violins,and other instruments in closets.. I could go on and on but will stop and simply say “the cat paws in the gap were a joy!” 🐈 oh! Thanks for the sneak peek! Bling!💍 No suggestion from me. I have an Ethan Allen white dresser from ten years ago 🫢
I agree.... Strip it and see what lurks under the paint 😊! I'm thinking a rustic look like the cabinet you did a a couple of weeks ago, very stunning! Congratulations on your new stage part. You're so sweet, don't know if you can pull off being mean 😂 though! However, your previous fable's are fantastic so I'm sure you'll be spectacular at being a Villain! Awesome job! ❤😊
"...the ancestral violins.." yer killin me 🤣💗 can't wait for the next fable, and yeah, no. bridey gotta go. maybe strip and beige-wash, with bronze or antique brass hepplewhite pulls? or green wash with stained top and legs? dunno, lots will depend on the condition of that veneer. can't wait to see - rock on, villainess!!! 💗😄
Isn't it satisfying to have the closet cleaned out and organized? Do you go back and open the closet door and just enjoy how nice it looks? (That's what I do 😂). Please keep us updated on your role in Mary Poppins. Sounds like fun. Congratulations! I hope you refinish the buffet in a natural wood and paint combination that you do so well. Maybe the doors and drawers in natural wood and everything else painted? Whatever you decide to do, it will be gorgeous.
I for one was anxiously waiting for a musical update! Wild idea, you could paint that piece like a Victorian painted lady house - for some reason, all the details on it really remind me of that style!
Last year I cleaned and organized both of my clothing walk-in closets. One of them had a pile on the floor 3 ft. deep I kid you not. It feels SO good now to open those doors and see organization, not chaos. Oh, no more cats. haha
@@vdruskas Try to find a declutter buddy. Maybe digitally or in person. Maybe a good friend of you just feels the same and you could tackle the areas which need it together. It's so much esier if you have somebody with you to keep you on track. And with time it's getting easier. ❤
Cleaning is always more fun with friends! 😆 We all support you in cleaning your closet, that's what we're here for. I think you should repaint it and bling it! Seriously.
Thanks for this glimpse into your closet and into your cleaning style! It really is more fun watching someone else clean out their closet than it is cleaning out your own closet!
Strip the body, change out the hardware, Steam and re-glue the veneer, wall paper the doors, Stencil the inside bottom of the drawers and door areas Paint the top in a dark color, If you found or have some dark paper, a color to match for the top, Chocolate, black, dark brick red (depending on the wood tone or stain. I love your closet clean out.
Always need more cats! I limit myself to 4. Would like to see a photo of you in your villain costume and makeup. As for the table, at least the legs and edges wood, I am concerned about what shape the veneer is in, and painting is an option. Maybe you could make eyes for the chicken and cat with the pulls.
I'd keep it a light color so we can appreciate the lines of the piece. I think it's beautiful. Congratulations on the stage part! You are so talented Andy! The closet looks clean and organized, so you deserve a good rest now. Thank you for keeping us in the loop!
I LOVED watching this video!! I swear I think I'd watch you cleaning out ANY room anywhere. I was having a bit of a melancholy day but this video just made me laugh and helped me rise above all the disappointments of my day. I think you are so talented and I love your personality and sense of humor. Congratulations on landing the role in Mary Poppins. I know you are going to do a WONDERFUL job...I for one would love to see any and ALL content from the production !!! Enjoy yourself with all the preparations for the show. Looking forward to the furniture redo....I think I would like to see you strip it , hopefully the wood underneath is lovely. Have a great week Andy!
Wow, thank you so much for this, Becky!! That's my hope, just to be a bit of a bright spot in someone's day, so I truly appreciate your sharing this. And can't wait to share more MP content!! ☂️ 😍
Of course you got the role. Congratulations. That was a very entertaining closet clean out. We all can relate. Your cats are so cute, especially the mischievous one peeking from under the table. I'm looking forward to see what you do with the "Bride". Catch you next time.
I would either do a painted look with decoupage on the door fronts or a two toned with paint on body and wood drawer fronts and top ..you can make a slice with razor on lifted veneer and iron and steam method to reactivate glue to flatten and hand sand ...I'm doing my closets too😂❤
Genius! Whitening your teeth while you declutter! I’m stealing that 😏 Very excited for your Villain role!! Growing up I always had dreams of playing the leading lady but over the years I’ve realized villains and other character roles are so much more fun! I hope you can share a few snippets with us of yourself on stage. As for your next piece, I’m sure whatever you decide to do will be divine! If the veneer is salvageable and all the solid wood is decent maybe something in a two tone stain with a surprise paper inside! Break a leg up there! On stage that is 😂
Yay, thanks for the update on your audition...was wondering about it! Keep us posted on when and where! This is a kind of crazy idea for the white piece but you could cut up a large mural of maybe a forest scene or fairy tale and do different panels on each side and drawers and do a complimentary color or subtle stencil on the top...maybe red riding hood and a cool dark forest on the top. Or a Beatrix Potter mural with pastel muted lake scene on the top. And yes, I remember going to the Z gallery Santana Row in the early 2000's and seeing all the blinged out furniture they called "old Hollywood" with white, gold and mirrored surfaces.
What a fun video! I had a smile on my face the entire time. I'm looking forward to whatever you will do with the furniture piece and would love to hear more about your role as the villain in Mary Poppins.
Oh. My. Gosh. I think I laughed harder at this than I did at some of Painterly and Biffs stories! Every bit of that closet clean-out is spot on for what happens in our house! The goofiness, the stories, the inanimate objects talking, the "where'm I gonna put this?", the "what the...?" Thank you for the laughs and another insight into your delightful personality. And thank you for the update on your stage role. Not familiar with that version, but it sounds like fun! As to "the wooden bride": you know you want to strip it... search your heart- you know it to be true. LOL I think a multi-tonal wood look would be cool, with maybe a contrasting solid color, or faux-finish (or something else creative) on the top. You could use Re-tique it if necessary. 🤷🏼♀️ In any case- you're awesome. Thanks again for sharing you time, talent, and humor with us. ...Oh no! Killer chicken! 🐓🤖💀 😂😂
After watching the LSU Lady Baseball team lose to Ole Miss Lady Baseball Team, I needed a pick me up. Your closet event was the best thing to happen this whole day. You were right on. I was going to clean one of mine today but thought recovering a Chippendale dining chair I aquired would be more fun. It wasn't. You made me feel good. Thank you Andy.💐
Oh dear, well I am SO glad my closet clean came to the rescue!! Isn't it amazing how cleaning can lift your spirts? (Even others cleaning...) So happy you enjoyed, thanks so much!!
Andy, you crack me up. Thank you for sharing a little piece of your normal life. Love your music choice and the editing/close ups are simply fabulous! 🤗
Strip the top and legs. A pretty beige or dark gray body. Good luck whatever you do! Congratulations on your part, you’ll be fantastic! What fun watching someone clean their closet. Now off to do mine that I’ve been putting off for a year! 😅
Thanks for making this such a fun morning. Such satisfaction and feel of accomplishment seeing YOUR closet cleaned, sorted and organized! I can't wait for the next furniture fable to begin. No suggestions from me. I'm stuck trying to choose one of two colors for a side table. I know I'll love whatever you come up with! Congrats on becoming a villain, I can't imagine you being one for real, but wish you all the fun in playing one on stage.
I too have an ancesteral violin... and a place under the stares where things go to never be heard from again. If it were my bridezilla buffet I would probably be turning it into a vanity. I would strip it and see what the wood looks like, I would either stain the frame and paint the drawers or the other way around.
This was fun - and one of the few times in my life that I’ve enjoyed watching someone clean! 😁 When you said the sideboard reminded you of a blinged-out bride, my mind went to her being jilted and deciding to makeover her entire image, you know, make him see what he’d be missing? But then again, my mind comes up with all sorts of crazy things! I can’t wait to see what your mind comes up with! Oh - and congratulations again! I’m betting that you’ll be awesome! 😊
Loving the vlog style video. I can relate, i am in the process of cleaning out my two bedrooms, so much stuff! I kept my son's lego pieces hopefully for his babies. Thanks for the sneak look ahead. I say peel back the layers and see what beauty is hidden underneath. Congratulations 🌹🌟 I think it will be so much fun playing the villian 🤩
Good job on the closet. I think it would be worth stripping the paint off and seeing the condition of the wood. It would be nice to give it a fresh coat of paint, if the wood is terrible, and update the knobs. It has a lot of potential.
You’re hilarious ….Never thought cleaning a closet could be so entertaining ..Love the kitties 🩷🐾 Congrats again on getting the role.. can’t wait to see you on stage again🎭
I've heard of Hepplewhite but have never actually seen a piece. Interesting. Just as I imagined. I think you should save yourself a lot of sanding and just plan on painting the whole thing - maybe 2 tone or black? Can you cut out the bubbles on the top then fill the gaps with bondo? I love the glass knobs - just not on the white but I hope you'll save them for reuse. They're bound to look good on something. Can't wait to see what you do.
What a fun closet clean out! I’m tackling my linen closet tomorrow…😬 When I saw the Pruneridge golf course hat, I felt homesick! I grew up in Santa Clara and Campbell and miss those growing up years. When I’ve seen you washing your furniture outside, I thought you must live in Saratoga or Los Gatos. So lovely. I wonder if you could embellish the buffet with some IOD transfers over a pretty paint color? It’s a great piece of furniture.
I just cleaned out closets but didn’t have nearly as much fun, lol. I’m excited to follow your acting adventures. That villain role will be a blast to play. Enjoy!
With the sideboard I would make the put on a new dark top or make it dark wood looking and take the bling off and put a different type of pool on it but leave the bottom part white.
OMG- as a fellow thespian, huge congratulations on earning the role of "Ms. Andrew" in MP 🥂🥰! As much as I loved (& related to) this video, I absolutely CANNOT WAIT to see how you interpret the sideboard. I have been quite taken with the Pantone color of the year "Peach Fuzz" as an accent; especially when paired with a beautiful navy blue. Maybe this combination is expected but it truly is a gorgeous pairing regardless of which color is the dominant 🤷🏼♀️! (You will be a wonderful Ms. Andrew and for once, I truly wish that I didn’t live on the opposite side of the country so that I may attend your opening night & cheer you on 😂)!
Oh wow - always so wonderful to meet a thespian friend here on the Fables! Many thanks - I LOVE your color idea suggestions...going to ponder that hard...and I'm so touched you would come to our opening - wow and thanks!!! 😍🎭🙏
After you strip or sand see what you have, then the inspiration with come.. As for hardware, I could only see the knob type with a ring. No idea why. Just have fun with it. I always can't wait to see what comes in the end.
Such a delightful vlog, Andy. You're so funny! I loved all the moments, and yes, I can definitely relate to the clutter of many years accumulating in a forgotten closet. I've been slowly trying to declutter corners of my house too, but somehow it's much more fun watching you. And I'm so thrilled for your villain part in Mary Poppins! I have to admit, I did a little sleuthing when you first got the part and did find something about the show coming up in the spring, with the cast listed as: "to be announced". And I wondered if that was the one you were auditioning for. Anyway, congrats again and can't wait for future updates.
Enjoyed your heroic closet-cleaning saga! :-) It would be interesting to make your next Fable an interpretation of the villain character that you play in the Mary Poppins production onto that sideboard.
There's nothing like a clean out the closet... unless it's a clean out of the garage. Which I had help with this past Saturday. Enjoy that clean closet.😊
I'm surprised Drea didn't show up to offer her "sage" advice on closet organization. That piece is lovely, the bones anyway. I am ordinarily a died in the wool restore it to it's former glory wood gal, especially if its antique. Only you know if it's worthy of the effort. I've been watching the new IOD release videos, so my first thought is floral and romantic. That would be perfect in my eclectic, fantasy cottage ... the one I'll never have.
As to the next fable piece... It might be nice to see a subtle wallpaper design on the face of the door panels. A subtle chicken theme perhaps. HaHa .. Really, any quiet, elegant design wallpaper would be a pretty statement. .... Love the menacing chicken peeking out from the closet at the end. LOL
7:59 "Why are *you* so pleased with life? " 😂 Best decluttering and reorganizing video ever. : ) 13:37 to 13:57🤣 Loved every single bit of it. Thanks so much for the laughs...I'm still smiling....and so thrilled for your having gotten the role you wanted! This was fun!
I love the Swan in the closet, so pretty. I can’t find one and I have tried! Your closet is looking good! I so enjoy your videos and how cute and funny you are all the time!!! I have to say that I love it when you create your works of art because you are so talented indeed!!! Much Love, Marley from Missouri
Oh Andy, I just love watching your fables, you are a delight! I am so excited about your part in Mary Poppins. I so wish I could come see you! I live in Mississippi though so it's not possible. But I would if I could. On another note, why do I feel like that closet was all "props"?🤣 It just gave me theater props vibes. Terminator chicken! HAHA!! I love that beautiful cabinet. When you said bride it immediately made me think of Father of the Bride with Steve Martin/Diane Keaton. Maybe you could pattern it after one of the outfits she wears after her wedding, or even from the second movie. Married, but not matronly. 😁 No matter what you do, it's gonna be amazing as usual. I can't wait to see. By the way, tell your kids, three cats is a cat owner any more than that and you're headed into "crazy cat lady" territory. Ciao
LOL, thanks so much for this! And I know just what you mean about props...🎭😂 Ok, LOVING the Diane Keaton idea!! (I'm a fan) And thanks for the cat numbers insight...😂😍
I've never had so much fun watching someone cleaning a closet!! ❤️😆
Lol, yay!

OH MY....THANK YOU FOR SHARING THIS!! 😍😂 Amazing...and very much something I would do too!! Not a sentimental loser, you're awesome. 👏👏👏
Best find: photo of YOU standing on a HORSE!
LOL, right?? Can't believe I used to do that! 😅😂🐴
Wasn’t that every little girl’s dream? To be a trick rider? So cool.
I Love your sense of humor😁
Wonderful news on your entry into villainhood! Please DO update! This episode was an absolute hoot! Thanks for inviting us into your closet!🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Thanks so much, and will do on the updates! You are so welcome - thank YOU for hanging out while I cleaned!!! 😂😍
My favorite part was the banter between the metal and wooden decor items! 😂
Lol, thanks...I was definitely starting to lose it at that point...😂
@@FurnitureFablesbyAndy 🥴
Loved the banter! It was giving me Gilmore Girl vibes!
@@m.c.850 😍
I loved it too. That and the satisfaction of a closet purge!
I felt it deep. I just returned from my dentist. I have a trumpet no one will ever play. I got rid of legos a year ago (wish I hadn’t so i could gift them to future grandchildren. I have a vintage Sorry set. I have ancestral violins,and other instruments in closets.. I could go on and on but will stop and simply say “the cat paws in the gap were a joy!” 🐈 oh! Thanks for the sneak peek! Bling!💍 No suggestion from me. I have an Ethan Allen white dresser from ten years ago 🫢
Whaaaaa??? WOW. Amazing. Many thank!! 😍
Spring cleaning, and teeth whitening all in one video! It doesn’t get any better than that ha ha ha😂
Right?! LOL 😁👍 Thanks!
I agree.... Strip it and see what lurks under the paint 😊! I'm thinking a rustic look like the cabinet you did a a couple of weeks ago, very stunning! Congratulations on your new stage part. You're so sweet, don't know if you can pull off being mean 😂 though! However, your previous fable's are fantastic so I'm sure you'll be spectacular at being a Villain! Awesome job! ❤😊
Thank you so much! Love that idea for the approach...😍
Do it!
"...the ancestral violins.." yer killin me 🤣💗 can't wait for the next fable, and yeah, no. bridey gotta go. maybe strip and beige-wash, with bronze or antique brass hepplewhite pulls? or green wash with stained top and legs? dunno, lots will depend on the condition of that veneer. can't wait to see - rock on, villainess!!! 💗😄
🎻 LOL and you are right - all going to depend on what is "unearthed"...but love those ideas! Many thanks! 🙏😍
Great job, Andy! Thanks for taking us along with you. That was fun!

Omg - this is amazing!! A full, completed, detailed plan!! I love it. Thanks so much, and so glad you liked the closet clean! 😍
Yay for the play!! Yay for vaulting too!! I did that when I was a kid as well. A long long time ago.
What, really?? That's amazing! Many thanks. 😊
You're going to make a wicked villain. The best parts.
Strip the top. Two tone. And don't forget wallpaper/decoupage.
LOVE those ideas, and many thanks...I agree!
Andy you are very talented. Whatever you come up with will be good
Many thanks, that is so nice to hear. 😊🙏
Always need more cats! I limit myself to 4. Would like to see a photo of you in your villain costume and makeup.

Your cats are so cute, especially the mischievous one peeking from under the table.
I'm looking forward to see what you do with the "Bride".
Catch you next time.
Thanks so much, awesome to hear!!
I would either do a painted look with decoupage on the door fronts or a two toned with paint on body and wood drawer fronts and top ..you can make a slice with razor on lifted veneer and iron and steam method to reactivate glue to flatten and hand sand ...I'm doing my closets too😂❤
Love it - and best of luck with your closet!! 🧹😍
You made me laugh so hard cleaning out the closet! I can totally identify.

Break a leg up there! On stage that is 😂
Thanks so much!! Yes - multitasking is the best, isn't it?? 😂 I will definitely try to share, and I love your suggestions for the piece! 😍
PS - I agree, the character roles/villains are soooo much fun and a lot less work than being the lead! 😅
Yay, thanks for the update on your audition...was wondering about it! Keep us posted on when and where!

Good job on the closet. I think it would be worth stripping the paint off and seeing the condition of the wood. It would be nice to give it a fresh coat of paint, if the wood is terrible, and update the knobs. It has a lot of potential.
love you Andy, keep the tubes coming!
Thanks so much, will do!! 😍
You’re hilarious ….Never thought cleaning a closet could be so entertaining ..Love the kitties 🩷🐾
Congrats again on getting the role.. can’t wait to see you on stage again🎭
Thank you so much, Kim!! 😍🐈⬛🎭
I've heard of Hepplewhite but have never actually seen a piece. Interesting. Just as I imagined. I think you should save yourself a lot of sanding and just plan on painting the whole thing - maybe 2 tone or black? Can you cut out the bubbles on the top then fill the gaps with bondo? I love the glass knobs - just not on the white but I hope you'll save them for reuse. They're bound to look good on something. Can't wait to see what you do.
Thanks so much, I love your approach! And I agree - maybe those pulls could look good in another context.
What a fun closet clean out! I’m tackling my linen closet tomorrow…😬
When I saw the Pruneridge golf course hat, I felt homesick! I grew up in Santa Clara and Campbell and miss those growing up years.
When I’ve seen you washing your furniture outside, I thought you must live in Saratoga or Los Gatos. So lovely.
I wonder if you could embellish the buffet with some IOD transfers over a pretty paint color? It’s a great piece of furniture.
Oh wow, what a pleasure to hear from a South Bay-ean!!! 😍😍😍 Many many thanks, I LOVE your ideas...
I just cleaned out closets but didn’t have nearly as much fun, lol. I’m excited to follow your acting adventures. That villain role will be a blast to play. Enjoy!
Thanks so much!! 😍😍😍
With the sideboard I would make the put on a new dark top or make it dark wood looking and take the bling off and put a different type of pool on it but leave the bottom part white.
Ooo interesting, thanks so much!
OMG- as a fellow thespian, huge congratulations on earning the role of "Ms. Andrew" in MP 🥂🥰! As much as I loved (& related to) this video, I absolutely CANNOT WAIT to see how you interpret the sideboard. I have been quite taken with the Pantone color of the year "Peach Fuzz" as an accent; especially when paired with a beautiful navy blue. Maybe this combination is expected but it truly is a gorgeous pairing regardless of which color is the dominant 🤷🏼♀️! (You will be a wonderful Ms. Andrew and for once, I truly wish that I didn’t live on the opposite side of the country so that I may attend your opening night & cheer you on 😂)!
Oh wow - always so wonderful to meet a thespian friend here on the Fables! Many thanks - I LOVE your color idea suggestions...going to ponder that hard...and I'm so touched you would come to our opening - wow and thanks!!! 😍🎭🙏
I LOVE MARY POPPINS! How exciting
Hooray!!! ☂️😍
OOO! I found a video of Mrs. Andrews singing Brimstone and Treacle! What a glorious role for you!
Oh that's so cool!! It's SUCH a fun role and SUCH a fun song. Many thanks!
After you strip or sand see what you have, then the inspiration with come.. As for hardware, I could only see the knob type with a ring. No idea why. Just have fun with it. I always can't wait to see what comes in the end.
Good plan, thanks!
Such a delightful vlog, Andy. You're so funny! I loved all the moments, and yes, I can definitely relate to the clutter of many years accumulating in a forgotten closet. I've been slowly trying to declutter corners of my house too, but somehow it's much more fun watching you. And I'm so thrilled for your villain part in Mary Poppins! I have to admit, I did a little sleuthing when you first got the part and did find something about the show coming up in the spring, with the cast listed as: "to be announced". And I wondered if that was the one you were auditioning for. Anyway, congrats again and can't wait for future updates.
Lol, I LOVE watching other people clean! 😂 Many, many thanks and will do on the updates! 😍☂️
So much fun! Why do we all have these crazy closets? I choose to believe it’s out creative spirits
Thanks, and I agree with you! 😍
Go metallic as in silver and with glass bead gel and raised stencil. New drawer pulls. Metallic in any colour actually would suit this piece.
WOW - I hadn't thought of metallic...🩶💛
Enjoyed your heroic closet-cleaning saga! :-) It would be interesting to make your next Fable an interpretation of the villain character that you play in the Mary Poppins production onto that sideboard.
Thanks so much, and WOW! Such a fun idea.....
I'm so excited for you and your role in Mary Poppins. You, a villain? ❤😊
Lol, I know, right?? 😉
IOD transfer or decoupage on front of sideboard. You do good with that style.
Many thanks! Love that approach...
Hi Andy, I would LOVE to call in for coffee - it would make my year! Anyway, I would love to see you do a raised stencil - PLEASE x
Thanks so much, and I would LOVE to do one for you!! 😍☕️
There's nothing like a clean out the closet... unless it's a clean out of the garage. Which I had help with this past Saturday. Enjoy that clean closet.😊
Oh WHOA - that's the whopper, isn't it?? Many thanks!!
I'm surprised Drea didn't show up to offer her "sage" advice on closet organization. That piece is lovely, the bones anyway. I am ordinarily a died in the wool restore it to it's former glory wood gal, especially if its antique. Only you know if it's worthy of the effort. I've been watching the new IOD release videos, so my first thought is floral and romantic. That would be perfect in my eclectic, fantasy cottage ... the one I'll never have.
Lol, if she wasn't on "vacation", I'm sure she would've! 😂 It's definitely tempting to try a restore, but also love the floral romantic idea too...
Andy, you are such a extraordinary person
Oh my goodness, thank you so much!! 😍🙏
Lol a glorious clean-out! And you ~*~clearly~*~ need more cats. AND OMG THE ANCESTRAL VIOLINS!!!!
🎻🤣🐈⬛
As to the next fable piece... It might be nice to see a subtle wallpaper design on the face of the door panels. A subtle chicken theme perhaps. HaHa .. Really, any quiet, elegant design wallpaper would be a pretty statement. .... Love the menacing chicken peeking out from the closet at the end. LOL
Ooo, that sounds so lovely, I love it! Many thanks...and watch out for robot chickens!! 🐓🤖
😄@@FurnitureFablesbyAndy
Paint and appliques for sure!
😍
so much fun!
Thanks so much!
How fun for you to play a villain and the Holly Terror too. Hope you can post photos.
Many thanks - hope so too!!
Great video. Congrats on the getting the role and I think you're going to change the white paint and put some kind of paper in the drawers!
Thanks so much, and wow - you're reading my mind!!
7:59 "Why are *you* so pleased with life? " 😂 Best decluttering and reorganizing video ever. : ) 13:37 to 13:57🤣 Loved every single bit of it. Thanks so much for the laughs...I'm still smiling....and so thrilled for your having gotten the role you wanted! This was fun!
Lol, yay! So glad you enjoyed this one, thanks so much!!
congratulations on your singing role. hope you will share snippets of the show
Thank you, I will!
What a FUN video! 😂 (And kudos for getting such a juicy role 👏🏽)
Thanks so much!! 😍🎭
I love the Swan in the closet, so pretty. I can’t find one and I have tried!
Your closet is looking good!
I so enjoy your videos and how cute and funny you are all the time!!! I have to say that I love it when you create your works of art because you are so talented indeed!!!
Much Love,
Marley
from Missouri
Wow, thank you so much, Marley!! Truly appreciate this, and swan says hi! 🦢😍
@@FurnitureFablesbyAndy ♥️
what a hoot! You really know how to have fun in a closet with stuff and things.😂
Thanks so much! 😂👍
Hi Andy, you are fun even when cleaning your closet 😂 Are you going to decoupage the doors & drawers? It has so many options.
Yay, many thanks! I love that idea.....😍
I see bold colors and stencils or wallpaper for the white sideboard.
Oooo...love that....
Oh Andy, I just love watching your fables, you are a delight! I am so excited about your part in Mary Poppins. I so wish I could come see you! I live in Mississippi though so it's not possible. But I would if I could.
On another note, why do I feel like that closet was all "props"?🤣 It just gave me theater props vibes. Terminator chicken! HAHA!!
I love that beautiful cabinet. When you said bride it immediately made me think of Father of the Bride with Steve Martin/Diane Keaton. Maybe you could pattern it after one of the outfits she wears after her wedding, or even from the second movie. Married, but not matronly.
😁 No matter what you do, it's gonna be amazing as usual. I can't wait to see.
By the way, tell your kids, three cats is a cat owner any more than that and you're headed into "crazy cat lady" territory. Ciao
LOL, thanks so much for this! And I know just what you mean about props...🎭😂 Ok, LOVING the Diane Keaton idea!! (I'm a fan) And thanks for the cat numbers insight...😂😍
Yes I’d love to see a build of a cat run!
Awesome!! 🐈⬛
I haven't watched to see what you did yet but I love it in white
I can relate to the glasses on top of your head.
🤓😍😂
Of course I have an opinion what you should do with the new piece! That would be: Strip the piece and decide after you do that how to proceed.
Brilliant!
Mixed wood and paint, I think would look nice. Loved this video 😊 please do more
Thank you! Will do!
Have you ever tried a Brushed By Brandy or Bella Renovare style paint blend? Take it from bridal to prom!
Yes, I have....and love the bridal to prom idea!
Loved the video! So much fun! I say strip and find out what you can do to make it sing ❤
Yay, thank you! Love that idea...😍
4.29 … OMG … for a split second l thought you were wearing the boot to walk the dogs !! 🤣🤣🤣 … but it was your black open toe shoes 🤣
LOL, oops!! 😂
Me too - thought we were getting a flashback scene for a second there!
Me too!
That did seem a little ominous 😂
Another great video! Much love from Nova Scotia!
Thanks so much!! 😍
You were sooooooo brave to tackle that. I have four large containers I need to purge. Wish you would have inspired me. But alas. NO. I CAN’T. 😊
LOL, I get it!! 😂👍
