I had a BUNCH of furniture that needed updated and you gave me the confidence and information I needed to start and now I’m so happy with how my furniture has turned out and I’m addicted lol
Awe, thank you so much for your comment! This is what keeps me going!! I am so glad you found this helpful, and I bet your furniture is amazing!! Keep up the good work, and enjoy your new hobby ;)
I have watched tons and tons of these videos and never have actually felt like I could tackle this project and now after watching this video I purchased everything I needed on amazon and can not wait for it to arrive so I can do my own coffee table and side table in my living room. Thanks so much for explaining everything in a way that is not scary or to many steps like some videos make it seem so hard when its really simple if you follow your steps ! Thanks again!
YAY!! Thank you for leaving this comment, it's such an encouragement to me, andh helps me keep doing what I do. I think this is something everyone can do!!
I don't comment often, but I have always wanted to try to do something like this. You explain things very well and explain why you do things. Most you tubers don't. I am so hooked to your videos because they are attainable projects. Thank you!
Your video was very informative for someone who has never done any furniture painting or sanding. Thank you for this video. I bought a dining set for $20 and will be sanding and staining it thanks to your advice
Thanks for sharing. My aunt just gave me an old coffee table purchased in 1990. It’s stained bright orange/brown and I’m going to try to make it more modern!
I needed to match a butcher block piece to existing dark top light bottom furniture, this video was so informative and came out great with an exact match for what I needed! Thank you!!!!
Hey! I would love to send you my very first staining project that I did thanks to this video. So so so helpful. You made it so easy to follow too. Thank you.
Amazing DIY ! I really wanna how much I appreciate your clear instructions makes me feel much more confident in refinishing my dining table and coffee table. Thank You!
Hi Jenny. I’ve just chanced upon your videos today (and subscribed.) Thank you so much for sharing your expertise. Best wishes from (an unusually!) sunny Scotland:))
Thank you so much for this video! You're instructions were clear & easy to follow. I just finished staining a night stand. I hope it turns out as beautiful as your piece did.
Very informative and helpful. I love the step of sanding before applying the 2nd & 3rd coat of the sealer. I don't see many people doing that but it seems like it would make all the difference
Very informative video... I will start my first project soon. So first use sand paper 80 after that 120. Stain first coat leave it for 24 hour top coat total 2 top coats. Is that right what I understood from the video. Pls confirm I need the same finish
I am looking to do this to my coffee table and end tables. I was wondering would you do anything differently if the tables had a glossy finish on them? Also, they are a bit scratched up so will the sanding most likely correct that? I loved the video!
No, the glossy finish shouldn't matter. If it's thick, you may need to go at it with 80 grit sand paper right from the start. The sanding should take care of all the scratches in the process!! Thanks for watching, good luck on your project!
Hey i love your video .. u gave great details on what to do.. on every step.. I want try this on a old T.V stand i have . Hope i have the same results.
Thank you so much for this very informative video! I began refinishing a coffee table and while sanding noticed that portions of the wood I sanded were turning pink. Did I over-sand those areas? Any tips on how to get rid of the discoloration? I was hoping to white-wash the wood instead of using a dark stain, but might not work with the pinkish areas. Thanks so much in advance!
Hi! So I just sanded, stained, and applied polyurethane for the first time ever. I'm super new to all this! Anyway, after the first coat of polyurethane there are crater like holes in the top coat. It's almost like bubbles were there and popped. Did I apply the polyurethane too thick?
I am looking into refinishing/ staining an old kitchen table, and this tutorial was extremely helpful! When you were painting the base, did you end up taking the drawers out at all to paint the inside, or did you want the inside to stay the original color?
Mikaela Bradley oh good! I did take the drawers out to get around all the edges, but I didn't paint the inside of the drawers. I don't usually do that.
When sanding, I like to take a pencil and scribble over the surface. I tend to lay the pencil over and use the side of the lead. When you have removed all the scribbles, you can change to a finer grit sandpaper. This not only ensures even sanding, it stops you doing more sanding than is necessary.
Thank you for sharing your knowledge! One question if I may. Most folks recommend using a stripper before sanding. Was that not necessary for your table?
I FOUND 2 END TABLES ON THE SIDE OF THE ROAD I'M NEW AT THIS I HAVE SPRAY PAINT CAN I USE IT??? ON MY TABLES THEY ARE WOOD UGH!!! I DON'T WANT TO STAIN THEM I ALSO HAVE SANDPAPER???? XOXO YOUR (NEW) SUBSCRIBER ❤❤❤
I stripped the paint off of my bathroom door to take it back to the wood finish. I sanded the door with 80 grit and then 300 grit, then wiped off the dust. I tried to apply a coat of stain and it turned out horribly blotchy. I feel sick! I never could get the wood to sand down as bare as your piece in this video. Is that why it turned out so blotchy? I have to fix it somehow because it matches all the other doors in my house. Can you help?
As this is a pine wood will I need to use the pre stain conditioner? I'm scared that I might end up with the dark patches? What would you recommend it?
Hi can u tell me name of wood finish oil based colour did u use please im trying to do my own coffee table i love finished look especially the top of table
Hi Jenni, I have watched most of your videos several time and really enjoy all that you share. Got my first Purdy brush and really love it! I am just getting started with refinishing furniture and have decided to tackle a roll top desk. I am staining the desk surface area and painting everything else. It is coming along good but I have run into a small problem. I am using a oil based stained and after I let the stain dry, I noticed that in some of the grain areas the stain didn't seem to soak in as well as the others. I wanted to go over those areas, but didn't want to make it darker. I'm not sure how to fix this. Do you have any suggestions? Thank you. Beth
My suggestion would be to give it all a clear topcoat. Once that is dry, go over it again (with a water based stain) to try to even out the color. This should work! Once the water based stain is dry, topcoat as necessary.
This looks exactly like the wood on the table I refinished for myself however I found that the stain was extremely lighter/darker in some places and the top finish (semi gloss) was blotchy and looks now like there's puddles of water on my table. I would love a video of how to fix annoying problems like that. I know it probably was because of the type of wood (which I wouldn't have ever known hahaa, beginner) but I have no idea how to fix it other than sanding it down and starting over.. oh gosh
So you don’t add at top coat ? I’m about to re do my hutch. I wanted to stain the top and chalk paint the rest. Any suggestions? I’m so nervous, this is my first big project!
Would you recommend using pre stain conditioner before staining? Or would it be okay without? Do you know the difference between water based and oil based? I'm unsure what to use
I had 2 questions. Why isn’t it necessary to strip the stain? Also, what do you do if your table’s grain goes two different directions. It’s like it has a border around the solid piece o there are the two end section that instead of the grain going vertical it goes horizontal.
I have a nice mid century credenza with scratches that penetrate down to the wood- they aren’t really deep but have left a pattern in the wood- would you use a stainable wood filler after stripping? I know Minwax makes a wood filler. I am afraid that if I sand down too hard over the scratches that it will leave an impression in the wood. Any helpful tips? Thanks!
Yes, I would sand the whole thing down, some times those scratches will smooth out with a sanding. Anything deeper, use a wood filler (mix a bit of your stain into the wood filler to color it - so it matches better when you stain the whole piece). I think that should do it!
Good video but couple Questions How did you distress the bottom of dresser? Also do u have suggestions for replacing hardware on dressers with the 2 holes per handle? Also did your drawers stick? Maybe taking them out to paint is better?
I distressed with 120 grit sandpaper, just scuffed the edges to take off a little paint. Here's a video that goes more into distressing: th-cam.com/video/LmV098YeLlI/w-d-xo.html I would replace the hardware with the same size handle, maybe just with an updated style. OR fill the holes and make them knobs. A good source for hardware is D Lawless Hardware! Lots of options at good prices.
I am trying to refinish the frame of my boyfriends mirror that his grandmother handed down to him and hang it in our living room. Can I follow this same process? Or can you gove me some steps for that? I bought steel wool to sand it and stain.
Yes, I think the process would be the same, just on a smaller scale! Get it down to raw wood and stain and seal it. You will probably only need one coat of topcoat at the end of the process!
Very informative! Thank you for sharing! I want to refurbish a wood table, but the only space I have is our cold garage which can get down to -15 degrees. Does temperature affect the wood stain and top coats? Thanks in advance!
Thanks for this video. It helps me a lot. Could you tell me your top coat is water based or oil based? I have water based General Finishes High Performance. I'm just wondering wood stain is oil based, so water based topcoat is okay or not.
Water based top coat. Yes, as long as your oil based stain is completely dry (1-2 days) you can apply a water based top coat! GF High Performance is one of my favorite top coats!
My table is coming out bad during the poly steps. I’m using winmax fast drying clear satin poly with a valspar all stains oil brush. I did not shake the can. There’s bubbles still and the table is sticky after 12hrs drying between poly coats.
I think you should have sanded the complete table BEFORE you refinished the top. The dust from sanding the bottom will find its way to your beautiful top. Just my opinion !
Michelle smile that’s pretty rude. her expertise and skills are the reason for making a video and why it has so many views. Otherwise it’s just someone painting a table. Her talking while doing it is the reason it’s so helpful. Go be rude somewhere else
Hi, Jenny. Thank you for sharing. I have been considering doing this to my dinning table, it is pretty beat up. It is a hand me down from my husband s Grandmother and it is well used and loved! Any suggestions?? Thanks
This method would be a fantastic solution to update and refresh your table! I think the sanding would take care of most of the scratches and dings and you'll be surprised at what you can do! Good luck!
This is SO incredibly helpful! Thank you SO much!! One quick question... after the 3rd coat of top coat, do you sand a final time or no? Thanks again!!
What kind of paint did you use for the bottom? Did you use regular paint or funitire paint? And did you add a top Coat? I’m trying to get into remodeling old furniture to use as it is cheaper.
This was actually latex, it was a custom color the client had already had in her house. I didn't add a topcoat to the base over the paint. Yes, I agree - remodeling old furniture is fun and inexpensive. Have fun!! Check out more of my videos... I have lots of tutorials that may be helpful!
the paint she used was Behr Premium Plus Ultra in a Satin finish and it can be purchased at the Home Depot I am just unsure of the color, and she said it was a custom color match.
No, you dont have to. You just have to let the oil based stain fully dry (24-48 hrs). Then you are free to use any topcoat. My favorite is General Finishes High Performance topcoat!
Your videos are the BEST! They’re perfectly informative and tell a person everything they need to know without leaving them confused or overwhelmed.

Thanks for sharing. My aunt just gave me an old coffee table purchased in 1990. It’s stained bright orange/brown and I’m going to try to make it more modern!
I like how you listed the sand paper grits in order of use and the other items also.
This was by far the most informative tutorial. Thank you for sharing! I’ve been wanting to do that to my dining table!
You are so welcome!!
Can you put that same oil based stain over the painted part to add that look?
So beautifully done! I’m going to re stain my table and reupholster the chairs so I have a big project coming up 🤪 this was really encouraging lol.
