Kudos for being one of the few flippers I view who goes beyond the surface and actually sands and oils the drawers , interiors and backs of the furniture. Great job.
I have just found this channel and agree that he is very thorough and professional, the only other flipper I have watched who is such a perfectionist is Transcend Furniture Gallery channel here on TH-cam, Angie is also an inspiration to watch.
The trick to avoid the bubbles while glueing paper on other surface is actually puting the glue on the paper, not on the wood. The paper expands because of the humidity in the glue and dryes perfectly flat.
When the glue is too thick for my project, I usually dilute it a little bit with water and use a brush or roller to apply it . Also using a scrapper helps to get rid of the bobbles.
What a TRANSFORMATION! WOW! To me, it looks like a console table found in a front entry. Perfect height for dropping off keys/mail by thr front door! WELL DONE!!
You attention to detail and going so far as to even finish the inside of the drawers and even the back of the piece is stepping things up into super excellence. The hair pin legs are a nice unexpected touch that somehow works well with the end product. You created a one of a kind piece of furniture people will desire in their homes.
Your dressing table turned entry hall table is very nice. It turned out beautifully. When you glue paper down apply the glue to the paper. Use a plastic card such as a credit card or old gift card to smooth the paper down starting in the center of the paper and work outward. I am looking forward to seeing more of your projects.
I was pleasantly surprised to see what you did to this piece. You don’t normally use this technique on anything I’ve seen in the past. I like it very much. Nice dressing table😉
For applying wallpaper and vinyl to wood, I cut my PVA glue- 1 to 1 water to glue ratio- and apply that evenly to the material I'm adding. It slides around for positioning and lets out any bubbles much easier that way. An even coat should dry smooth. Nice little desk or vanity!
It is pretty telling that you clean up, sand and wax the inside. It shows your attention to details and professionalism. Makes the piece really come back to life.
Oh I love the paper, it gives it a very grand and regal look. It would be beautiful in an entry hallway or maybe in a bay window. You are very clever and talented and I love your very honest narration on the video. Thank you for sharing this with us x
Oh wow what a beautiful piece of furniture! I love the wallpaper you used, as I said before I love your attention to detail and the amount of care you put in a piece of furniture! A brilliant video! Just love what you do! Thank you for sharing!
I had doubts when you first brought out the wallpaper, but the finished project looks so posh! With the added height from the new legs, this could make a nice buffet. The drawers offer lots of storage space for rarely used serving pieces, and the different heights of the top could separate the types of food for a small gathering.
😊 Loved the outcome. The man I see skillfully working and making this beautiful table sounds so uncertain of himself...but this is the first video I've seen of yours. May you be blessed.
I have never seen wallpaper used on furniture. This piece is stunning! I love the pattern of the paper, it really says Art Deco to me. Thanks for the great video. 💕
At first I thought those legs were going to look ridiculous, but when I saw the finished piece with the wallpaper, I absolutely loved it. Amazing how you envision your pieces.
Another unique restoration of a classic vintage vanity. I'm from the U.S. where vintage pieces like you find don't exist on the side of the road. Flimsy Ikea furniture seems to be all the rage by the younger generation and quality wood craftsmanship is rare to find or impossible to afford. Thanks for bringing these pieces back to life. It's 2.2.2022 and a Renaissance is on its way back.
I honestly questioned what your plan was with the piece when you were applying the wallpaper but the end result shows your skill and ability to see the end product way before it's finished! Well done, well worth the subscription! Bravo!
I love that you sand the inside and outside of the drawers...clean like new. I would imagine that this gets rid of the old, musty smell that antique furniture always seems to acquire.
Absolutely gorgeous! I was happy to subscribe to your channel after watching just one of your videos. 😊 Your attention to detail is spot on. Too many of these “flippers” forget about the back, bottom and inside of the piece. Not you Sir. Bravo once again.
I'm not a fan of wallpaper, but this looks so rich and elegant. Absolutely love your detailed attention to both the outside and inside of your projects. Well done sir! 👏🏼
I agree Joan, love when the interior isn't ignored. Beautiful job, wallpaper & legs compliment one another, just perfect. I love gold & black, also gold & gray. Looking forward to viewing more video's, new to your channel.🌻
Ive been binging your newer content and have been enjoying it so much, im working backwards. So wonderful to see your growth and the flourishing of your business.....and cats. Wishing you continued success. Thank you for sharing your talent!
Wow stunning, I've done lots of wallpapering with furniture it's one of my favourite. I find glue the paper is better to reduce bubbles. The paper was gorgeous. Those legs look great. 😍
Beautiful job! I believe originally it was a “telephone table” where you would place your home phone and could sit while using the phone. The drawers would hold your telephone book and paper for writing down messages etc. Since home phones are practically extinct now you gave it a new life as a table. Well done.
No it's an old dressing table. My grandmother had one very similar. In those days the average female height was 5ft 2inches so the dressing table was quite short. The dip in the middle allowed a long view of the body that wasn't obscured by items on the table. Telephone tables only started to appear later when they because more common in houses after WWII.
Your struggle with the wallpaper shows how far you are willing to go to rescue one of these pieces. Your theory that adding legs can really change a piece is right on point. I love how they added to the overall effect on this piece. You're a genius, Jay. Keep up the great work.
From trash to striking showpiece of furniture! Now it's finished I can really see the potential of this piece in terms of practicality and as a decorative accent specially in an entry hall or living room. Very well done. Congratulations.
The wallpaper was a brilliant idea, it worked very well. You have a good eye for detail, and matching seams & corners is fantastic. The added leggs worked well to. I'm not an expert, but I can recognize beauty, and you did a wonderful job turning it into a conversation piece.
It was a very cool Art Deco (as you said) dressing table. It would have had a nice (probably) large oval mirror attached to the back. LOL, my wife bought me a nice simple stained glass window back in the ‘70s. I refinished the frame and hung it in the front picture window. The kids in the Jr. High School across the street thought we were the coolest people on the block. Years later, my Dad made a large oak frame and attached the stained glass under the center open panel to make it a coffee table. For years I stored it because I couldn’t find legs that I liked. In the early 2000’s a local furniture store had a back room with things they couldn’t sell. In there I found a painted wooden coffee table with legs that match the legs you put on this piece, except shorter. I bought the table for $5, unbolted the legs and put them on my oak/stained glass coffee table-PERFECT!

Oh and thank you for saving it from the landfill and giving it a great new life.
You worked hard on this piece and it turned out beautiful. Sell it as an entry table….that would b the first wow thing people would see.
What if he wants to keep it?
What a TRANSFORMATION! WOW!

Absolutely stunning!! Love your choice of finishes, and the fact that you did the entire piece -- not just the outside. 🌟👍
Thank you ☺️ you’re very kind
Been enjoying your videos. This one is an older one. No workshop, no plethora of tools. No cats. But wonderful piece. Thank you.
Ha ha. Old school 😂 thanks for watching
I was pleasantly surprised to see what you did to this piece. You don’t normally use this technique on anything I’ve seen in the past. I like it very much. Nice dressing table😉
I LOVE YOUR BEAUTIFUL RENOVATION OF THIS VANITY OR OCCASIONAL TABLE!!!!
IT IS SO GORGEOUS!!!
💖💖💖💖💖
Thank you 😊
It looks really pretty

Thank you Jan , much appreciated ;-)
Marvelous!!! And thank you for taking care of all sides of the furniture and not just the pretty side!!!
That looks a lot like my grandmother’s vanity. Essentially it’s a place to put on your makeup, but she put some of her clothes in it too.
Wow! A entry table for sure..makes a statement!
Thanks Jan !
That saying couldn't be more true. "One man's trash is another man's treasure"
Really beautiful wallpaper. One of the easiest transformations you have done! You didn't use any fancy tools! Beautiful!
that's because I didn't have any ha ha This is one of my first videos.
Again you have created a new look for this furniture and brought it back to life.😂😂😂😂
Beautiful work enjoy the video
That was so creative! And the result is beautiful. Bravo!🐝🤗❤️
This turned out so beautiful. I'm gonna go out and get some wallpaper, bc I never would have thought to use it. Thank you for sharing.
Glad you liked it and definitely give it a try😜
Looks good.
Using a brush to apply the glue will make for a smoother finish and is easier than using your finger I think. Absolutely beautiful, congratulations!
These are not restorations they are works of art. Master Class
You are too kind 😊
WOW! That’s was creative and striking! Great work!
Thanks 😊

The drawers offer lots of storage space for rarely used serving pieces, and the different heights of the top could separate the types of food for a small gathering.
That vanity is at a better height with the new legs that you picked. Beautiful job.
Talk about some creative choices! Def a new look on an old piece. Can't believe it was in the garbage. Great find!
Thank you ☺️
I would add glass on the top! Beautiful entry table with a basket to the now open shelf for keys.
😊 Loved the outcome. The man I see skillfully working and making this beautiful table sounds so uncertain of himself...but this is the first video I've seen of yours. May you be blessed.
I was thinking, there's no way he can make that look good. I was wrong
Watch more! He's talented
I have never seen wallpaper used on furniture. This piece is stunning! I love the pattern of the paper, it really says Art Deco to me. Thanks for the great video. 💕
You are very welcome 🤗
I would NEVER have imagined you could put wallpaper on a piece of furniture. This looks fabulous!
thanks Tammara
Gorgeous
Gorgeous!!
Am absolutely beautiful restoration. This is an exquisite piece anyone would be honored to have added as a touch of elegance in their home.
I love your attention to detail! Those legs suited this piece perfectly. Nice job!
Very very nice!
At first I thought those legs were going to look ridiculous, but when I saw the finished piece with the wallpaper, I absolutely loved it. Amazing how you envision your pieces.
Cheers! It's really kind of you! 🙂
Love the legs! Definitely an entry table!
The hairpin legs are a great touch.
Wow! I would never have thought of using hairpin legs with that furniture style. Brilliant!
Beautifully done! It's amazing what people throw out, isn't it? Honestly, you did a marvelous job on this vanity =)
Thank you 😊 it was in a rough shape 😂
@@Flippingdrawers Not anymore, 🤩 LOL‼️🥰😘🤣
What a great transformation, hope it sells well for you. 😀
Love this piece!
(tip: when I use pva glue, I wet a brush with water and use it to spread the glue)
Wow! An outstanding piece! I much prefer unique, creative makeovers. Nothing predictable for me. Be very proud of this beauty.
Very kind of you 🥰
Not sure what you ended up calling that piece, but it is beautiful! What a novel idea to use the wallpaper that way! Nicely done! Take care!
That is quite a transformation!! Beautiful!

Great job on the table

Wow! Stunning! What a craftsman you are! 💕
😍 Beautiful and elegant! That wallpaper really made it pop!
Thank you! Cheers!
Wow you took it from drab to fab x
Certainly tried ;-)
I agree Joan, love when the interior isn't ignored. Beautiful job, wallpaper & legs compliment one another, just perfect. I love gold & black, also gold & gray. Looking forward to viewing more video's, new to your channel.🌻
Absolutely beautiful, it does deserve a mirror and it would work great for an entryway like a console. Great video.
Wow looks amazing!! Loved it awesome job 👏

it looks stunning, as though you put all of this ornate decor on yourself. Wow!
That looked amazing in the end. I was not sure about the legs to start with but once I saw it in place realised how good it looked.
☺️ thanks
I didn't expect it to look so nice given that wall paper was used. It transformed into a beautiful piece.
Thank you ☺️
I love how this turned out. Great job again and thanks for sharing with us.
How clever if you to use real wallpaper. Really made it elegant, not cheesy or cutesy. Excellent job. 👍🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻💜
Glad you like it!
I liked it with the wood color in contrast to the wallpaper instead of the black. I think it was more eye catching and interesting.
I actually agree. The main reason I painted it was so the edges would blend in.
Beautiful job! I believe originally it was a “telephone table” where you would place your home phone and could sit while using the phone. The drawers would hold your telephone book and paper for writing down messages etc. Since home phones are practically extinct now you gave it a new life as a table. Well done.
Oh thank you!
I'd say it was a vanity. Telephone table I had was just one drawer and wider bench. Still pretty as repurposed piece.
No it's an old dressing table. My grandmother had one very similar. In those days the average female height was 5ft 2inches so the dressing table was quite short.

Really neat, unrecognizable….so happy that you are a Professional!❤

Very elegant piece. Well done 👏👏I use wallpaper a lot on my pieces and I've found added water to the PVA helps reducing lumpy bits 😳
Great tip!
Amazing
You could have added a small amount of water to the PVA and then brushed it on. X
Thanks for the tip👍
Wow! This came out beautiful!
Thanks ☺️

Thank you so much 😀
Turned out amazing. Loved it, would definitely give it room in my house.
You are a true artist and inspiration. This piece is outstandingly beautiful!

That baroque wallpaper is absolutely gorgeous and looks wonderful on this piece.
Thank you Laura ;-)
