Talent through the roof
Hahahaahah😂😂😂😂😂😂 anybody can do this
Love the idea to do the first coat of poly then do the sanding. I found myself accidentally stripping colour and I hated having to go go over it again. I’ll try that next time!
Ugh, I’ve been in that situation a few times 🤦🏻♀️
It would be better to wipe your wood with a damp rag after sanding to raise the grain or else use water based stain to raise the grain then sand. You don't need to worry about it raising twice and you don't want to sand raised grain with poly.
Anyone who strips, sands and finishes wood furniture knows the hard work that goes into it! You are the queen for sure! Beautiful job!!
It looks brand new 🎉
Another amazing piece by Katie ❤
Great job. Taking off the scalloped edging on the bottom and replacing it with a squared apron would boost the cabinet into the new millennium. The scalloped apron is very 70s/80s.
I have the same style bedroom set 😢
Amzing how a fresh paint and updated hardware on outdated furniture really brings it to date. Soooo beautiful.
I wasn’t sold until I saw the black hardware, you did it again Katie. Great job.
You do such great work!! I love how your channel has grown so much 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
Thank you so much!!
You certainly saved this dresser's life! Great work Katie 👍
Love the finish and how the pulls add interest instead of the usual knobs
You never cease to amaze me. Beautiful transformation.
I always smile when I hear that Pune is a soft wood. I’m from north of Sweden really far north and for me (and everyone in my region) pine is a hard wood. Pune grows so slow here so flooring and building wood is always pine. Up here we don’t have so much other wood to rely on, like oak bc they don’t grow here. Pine, birch and spruce, that’s almost everything. Birch is the hardest one and often used in furniture, like now I’m working with a table from 1920 and kitchen and chairs from 1950 both in birch. I’m giving it all the same finish so they will look like they belong together even if they’re from different eras.
Oh this is quite intriguing info! Thank you for sharing! And your table and chairs project sounds really nice, and I'll bet it has turned out lovely. As I'm typing, I'm realizing that I've made the same efforts in my entire home, to blend a 1940s/50s addition seamlessly into the rest of my home, which is from 1923. Vintage style, in both house and furniture, has such a warm and cherished feeling, doesn't it? It feels good to restore old things and enjoy them for many future years. I'm working on restoring an orange oak highchair to a soft blonde finish. Thanks for sharing your story! Best wishes from Minnesota, USA. ❤
The new black hardware totally popped this dresser ❤
You have a great eye. Pulling out and highlighting what makes each piece special. Very nice!
Fantastic transformation. Your vision is incredible, I would have never thought that ugly old thing could be refinished into something so attractive. Oh, and I love your "pinup" pose on the top of the dresser!
Thank you, thank you, thank you, for uncovering that beautiful wood. Pine is my favorite wood, and all of those gorgeous knots hidden under that dark surface was blasphemy. Thank you for showing her some love.
Turned out very beautiful ❤
The black pulls make an excellent contrast with the light wood. 😊
Wow, another fabulous redo on an old dresser that needed some freshening up. Love what you did. At first I wasn't sure why you left the very bottom with all the curves as is. I expected you would modernize it with a straight linear piece but seeing the final outcome it looks great just the way it is, and is very coherent in its design. Well done! ❤
I thought the same about the curves. I have the same style furniture that I stripped and wished I had removed those scalloped curves to give it a more updated look. However, it worked for this dresser.
Love the lighter tone and the new hardware and all the tips never fails that I don’t learn something new.
You took an ordinary dresser to a fresh clean yet still classic. Every thing you did was understated but in the end turned out so wonderful! I think this is such a great example that refinishing doesn’t have to have things cut off and painted wild colors to make them feel fresh again! Yay you
I'm not a huge fan of knotty pine but you knocked this Out of the park.
What a great piece that you can sneak into and blend with any home vibe. Well done Katie ✨🩵✨
Very pretty and great tutorial 😊
You're inspiring with the care you take with each piece to do it right.
Ugh! Knotty pine. But my goodness you made it look like new and modernized it - someone will love it :)
Furniture stripping is so satisfying! It turned out so pretty.
I just love taking your classes! I truly learn something new every time. After always struggling with sanding after my paintwash, yes, it removes too much color. Now I know I can wait until after my first coat of poly. Thank you!!
Love this! The pulls are a huge improvement over those similar ones that have a dome look to them. I hate those things. Excellent job ❤
I love pine furniture even though it does often have an orangey look. You did a great job on this piece. My daughter has a very similar dresser that was a hand-me-down from me. It’s probably older than she is but still doin the job. 😊
Again this turned out better than I expected as I watched. Great😅
Yet another great job Katie! I am currently working on painting kitchen cabinets for our basement. Spent 2 days removing hardware, cleaning, repairing, filling holes & taping. WHEW! This is so much work!
Great flip...hardware covers the previous drawer pulls perfectly.
Exactly what I needed... I started sanding a drawer which was heavily coated. Thanks!
Oh my goodness that’s beautiful!! What a perfect way to show the character of the pine without that dated golden glow (that the entire inside of my home is covered in!)
Absolutely love the dresser now.
I have this EXACT dresser! thanks for the info !! i’m going with chalk paint but you have me so much information about it that I had no idea! the final outcome looks fabulous!
Wow, from brown to beautiful 😍
Night and day difference - beautiful piece thanks to you!!!
One phrase is enough for this piece : Beautiful !!!!!!
Always a pleasure to hang out with you Katie xx
I always enjoy your furniture flips. You do such nice work. Could you tell why you use a sanding screen instead of sandpaper. Thanks.
And the dresser looks fantastic!
Beautifully done my friend!
Katie, it turned out beautiful! The new hardware is perfect for that dresser!
Once again, your talent shines through!
That would look great in a kitchen! As an island, or a coffee bar. Good job, as always Ms. Scott 🤩💕
Great job as usual! Love the hardware color. I usually opt for a deep brass with this color wood/wash. Will look at black in the future!
Great transformation, Katie.
This dresser turned out super nice!! I would not have thought about the drawer pulls that you put on this dresser but, they are perfect!! ❤
Every piece you tackle turns out wonderful and rich.
Absolutely Love the color!! Those handles are fantastic. You amaze me with each project you work on!!
Love this. Love the look,feel,smell of natural bare wood. You gave new life to a poor worn dresser. You are a master
oh katie, i wished i lived closer to you. i love your aesthetics in refinishing furniture! i have 2 pieces i wish i could have you redo. one is an antique marble topped washstand and the other is a drum table my husband made. you actually do a dying art. there are not too many people out there that refinish furniture anymore😔. keep up the lovely work!
Absolutely love this! I think I would have straightened out the bottom trim, taken off the curved parts to modernize the piece.
Such a beautiful refurb!!! You are so talented Katie🎉
Wow! Looks great. I didn’t expect to like it as much as I do! Well done, as usual, Katie!
I ♥️ it! Excellent choice of draw pulls and paint wash.
The paint wash is subtle. Just takes the edge of the yellow tone off. Lovely!
A classy classic 😊
I enjoyed every minute of your presentation. I, absolutely appreciate the opportunity to learn from you, while also enjoying simply relaxing and watching your work. Thank you.
That was so time consuming but it looks gorgeous compared to the start. Another great piece.
Excellent job, 🎉🎉, love that Algonquin color wash, but especially love your nail polish color, Mulberry comes to mind, it’s gorgeous. Thank you for pleasant time watching you work, Gramma,
A beautiful piece!
Katie, this turned out amazing! I love the whole process. Flipping is therapy!
It turned out just lovely. Another beauty. If you have too many pieces I have room. Ha!
So much talent! Looks so much better! I love it! You are such a star!
gorgeous!! love that wash!
Super cute. Love those handles you chose.
⭐️ NEW subscriber! I am so happy I found your channel. You are knowledgeable, innovative, and real! Your pieces reflect those traits. I love your process. And the effort you put into a piece when things don't go as planned. Thank you for sharing! I think I'll be doing some binge watching this coming weekend! ❤❤❤
Just beautiful, Katie, wow!
How Katie I love watching your videos with my kids my daughter I'd 5 and she keeps trying to make over my dresser she loves watching your different ways of furniture godbless hunni 💋
Well done Katie looks great!!
The pulls are perfection.
Gorgeous! I'm loving the hardware on this too!
Have pretty much exact same dresser (chest of drawers) along with matching bedside tables about to bring out of storage after 15 years. I know insane time but a long story. Already ordered same black handles which are on their way to me in Australia. Ordered handles before seeing this video as was thinking of painting set in a soft white. Am now rethinking as love the finish you have done here.
Nice work Katie. Pretty piece.
Wow!! What a beautiful job on the dresser. Transformation 101!
What an absolutely clear, concise, excellent video. I'm a beginner and this was so helpful, thank you! ps - your work is beautiful ❤
I love the way this turned out. Beautiful
Thank you Katie!! I’m getting a better idea what to do with my (too) dark finish living room tables - and maybe feeling a bit braver 😅
Another great job!
Wow, what an improvement!
Well done KT & thank you!
LOVE the final product
Me too! Thanks for watching today & have a great weekend.
Once again…….wow!!! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Loved the handles the dresser is beautiful ❤
Recently did a very similar project. A two piece knotty pine set mostly painted Algonquin with an Algonquin wash on the top drawers. I didn’t have the time to spend doing all that sanding. Great job as always!
Simple and beautiful! Perfect for a family. Love your meticulous work. More videos please.
what a transformation!! looks so chic
Love the satin poly finish with pine - I don’t think I have seen that before.
Awesome! It turned out beautiful. Great taste in the handles. It goes well with the piece. ♥️♥️😊👍👍👍🌟🌟🌟
Love the color! Pulls look great on it!
Excellent end result in this refinishing project 👍🌟😁 you've also addressed something I've been struggling with. I'd like to use the varathane at the end for table tops, chairs etc for my home,, but I have a small area to work in and I was worried about the misting that appears from the spray gun. I've purchased a tent and electric spray gun. I'll use your method here and try it out. Ty Katie. Your teaching methods are easy to follow and help me feel more confident to try new methods out. Very much appreciated. Your fan from Ontario 🥰
Love the hardware. Great job.
Absolutely stunning.
Katie I had a dream last night we were besties! Haha love your projects!! So inspirational! 🤍
Gorgeous😍 very detail oriented and very educational.
Turned out beautifully Katie. ❤
Beautiful upgrade!!! ❤
