Oh, that’s lovely, Barry! What I appreciate is that you didn’t dismiss it as “just birch” and paint it. It looks simple and quietly elegant. Well done!
I took that to mean he was happy to see it was birch. I listened twice. When they made that they used oak mostly only for utilitarian things. They didn't like a lot of grain, so birch or maple would have been a better choice for furniture. Unless a tiger oak or a burl, other woods were considered finer and less country or rustic.
I just built a bed using crap pine. I stained it but it looked great bare. Everyone’s favorite part is the grain pattern! “How did you do that?!” According to TH-cam experts, I messed up really badly and poof! Beautiful bed. 😅😂 Justice for all wood! Wood is *beautiful*! Edit: no disrespect for painting. Your furniture should look how you want!
This would have been a piece overlooked by most people for the garish paint job and the oddly applied Fleur-De-Lis stamping. You did restore the chest of drawers to a useable, functioning piece of furniture. Great episode Barry.
And the light wood gives it a scandi vib. I am waiting to hear from him, but I am thinking there is no finish to damage. It probably feels like velvet.
By far my FAVORITE piece you’ve refinished!! I absolutely love the clear wax finish, I wish it were used more in projects on TH-cam. What a stunning, simple yet versatile piece!! I could see it as an entry table/console, an addition for extra counter space in a kitchen (perhaps even a makeshift island if it’s a small kitchen), even a sink vanity if someone wanted to convert it for that purpose-the possibilities are truly endless! 💝
Isn’t it wonderful to think that a tree can make something as beautiful as that with the help of skilled men. It is truly a beautiful piece of art. The natural quality of the wood is nature at its best and it’s quite sad that all of that was hidden under the Barbie pink paint. This is an incredible reincarnation of a lost piece. You should be very proud Barry, another beautiful piece resuscitated and brought back into existence. Xx
It's a wonderful old piece. I love the clean lines without any unneeded fuss. Simply beautiful all on its own. Fantastic work, Barry! I admire your skill🎉 16:28
I’m so glad you used wax as the finish. The natural color is so lovely. I appreciate your efforts to educate us and make refinishing old pieces an accessible project for those without all the high end gadgets. Keep up the good work, Barry!
I’m always impressed by your technique, your narrations and your decisions on finishes. Another monster turned back into plain but delicate piece of furniture! No one would believe they were the same set of drawers! Well done, again, Barry!❤️
I have that exact dresser. The screws are the same. The inside of it is exactly the same. It even has cracks in the same place. I painted mine, as arthritis and other physical problems , prevent me from doing the fine work you do. I can't wait to see what yours becomes😊❤
You saved this discarded ugly dresser life😊! Thank goodness you chose to take a chance on it! Love the natural finish an all the hard work stripping that ugly paint! Turned out gorgeous! 🥰
Although it was pink and white in the beginning it is now bright wood and natural. I do like the blonde pieces more than the darker ones myself. They go with any decor and blend in naturally. Thanks for sharing and have a wonderful day
I love that you gave such a simple, yet elegant finish. This hard working dresser would have been purchased and cherished by a proud middle class American family! Bravo Barry!
Wonderful! I suggest you taking a photo of the previous condition of the piece of furniture, so as customers can realise how many efforts you made and appreciate your work. I've just subscribed. A big hug from the Alps (Italy) ❤
Seeing you use dental tools brings me back to my happy place. I’m retired now but as a Vet Tech, I absolutely loved to do dental cleanings on dogs and cats. I’m not sure why I loved something that no one else did, but I found t so gratifying. Thanks for always bringing thoughtful content to your viewers. ♥️👍🙏
I'm sure this was how it would have looked originally when it was new. Your craftmanship gave this a new lease of life. A true labour of love. Thanks for sharing.
@@tysonperna8844 faux tiger oak. I’ve a piece quite like it. Most of the finish remains intact, have to fix a few wear spots on the top. Well built old piece. Looks quite lovely in its natural glory, but would have come from the shop with the old dark tiger oak paint job as styles at the time demanded. Well done saving this piece.
Thank you for saving this chest. The natural wood is so much better than pink /lavender. I'm happy to see it restored to it's original beauty. If anyone complains about a piece being made of "just birch" so them a picture of this piece. Natural elegance personified. Awesome job Barry!
You really never disappoint Barry. I get so excited when my notification bell alerts me that you’ve posted. And I love love this natural look. Hope your travels have been good and relaxing. Thank you for all you do for us and bringing wonderful content. 🇺🇸
I love the light color! I’m old enough that I grew up with blonde woodwork, then teak was in, lived through oak everything, then the dark wood craze and then gray everything. I love seeing the light colors come back.
It's a cute little dresser for a child's room the way it is but I can't wait to see it in it's complete restored former glory when you're finished with it! ❤
Barry, I really enjoy seeing the lighter finish. I usually go for medium-dark stains myself. I hope you had a fantastic summer and may all of your endeavor$ be more than enough. Peace be with you Barry Most sincerely from The Great Lake State of Michigan 🐢
It looks beautiful, Barry! I LOVE it when the natural colour of the wood is celebrated... especially after such painstaking removal of old finishes. Thank you!
Absolutely Adorable! So BEAUTIFUL! Fresh, elegant and classic! You never disappoint your viewers. Your workshop is the best, most practical and tidy that can exist! Thanks so much for sharing and undertaking this challenging restoration!
The chest of drawers has turned out so beautifully. I particularly like the fact that you haven't painted it dark and that you haven't added any bulky handles.
watching all the videos made me confident to refinish a mass produced, painted headboard. i do not recommend that for a first project. but im glad i had the experience, even if it isnt something ill be doing more of in the future!
The Woodworkers Guild videos are good watching. I've been working on furniture off and on 40 years, with my mom and grandma. But still had plenty to learn. I have started getting interested in the Quebecois pine finishes when I come across softwoods when stripping old pieces. Bleached or scrubbed or the darker ones. So much to learn, so little time to learn it all!❤ It goes without saying id be proud to have this dresser in my home. Beautiful work.
It came out fantastic, Barry! I was really expecting it to be oak, under that garish paint, and was quite surprised it wasn't. The birch is beautiful, and I was happy you went with the wax finish. Great job, as always!
Wow Barry, another fantastic piece well done. I was surprised that you were able to get all the paint out of the pores of that wood. I did a old washstand that looks similar to this and it had old glass pull knobs. Congratulations it looks as if you're only 8000 away from 100,000🎉 ! Thanks again for showing us your talents😊❤
I am enthralled by your thinking in the process of refinishing. We benefit from your learnings. Grateful also for the treatment with wax for this church piece. Healing,the whole process.
I just found your channel as I was looking for some demos about refreshing or refinishing old furniture. I’ve inherited several pieces through the years and some of them need some “help”! 😂 I had a couple pieces refinished by experienced people but around here they are crazy expensive. 😬
You’ve definitely upgraded this poor dresser. I swear I saw the wood taking a grateful breath when you got off all of that paint and the original dark finish, and I really like the look of the new finish and the wood grain it reveals. I love Harbor Freight! I can’t count the times I’ve looked there first for a reasonably priced item, especially for gifts.
Interesting piece. It looks like the original finish was a faux staining to give it the ‘old oak’ look. It was a good way to make an average piece look more expensive. Very nice work on the restoration!!! I always look forward to your videos. Thank you.
Looks great. I love finding things to refinish. Just finished an old buffet found painted and abused sitting by a dumpster. Its now my daughters bar area in her library.
Looking at the back of the dresser, it was apparent that it had a lot more class than the garish paint would lead you to believe. Altho I would have opted for a stain, it still came out with a quiet dignity. Congratulations on saving its life.
The details remind me of a door hutch base styled piece my father had in his basement holding his paints and varnishes from the time I was a child. there was also a matching dresser with a single stack of drawers. When the house sold after both my parents passed, all the remaining furnishings went with the house. He claimed they belonged to his grandfather and were brought to the USA from England. If true, they would have been turn of the century pieces.
I am from Canada but I have many cousind whom live in Madison and surrounding area. Doucette is their last name. I enjoy watching your videos and think back to walkways by the Lake in Madison. Thanks for reminding me of those great memories and for the great videos.
Just spent 5 days in Waterloo visiting my inlaws and brother-in-law. It was a glorious contrast to the humidity and heat of the South. I know you've had a very wet spring and summer, but we enjoyed the vibrant green of the grass and trees. You took something that was probably handmade and gave it another life. Great choice with the wax. I always admire your patience.
Every piece of wood, in every piece of furniture has its own hidden beauty. Leavinging it unpainted lets that hidden beauty shine through. As a chronic back pain sufferer, I have learned to bend at the knees, and use my legs to do the lifting. I'm semi retired, and work a hard labor job. This way I can keep going.
What started as an ugly duckling, will continue to live on as a beautiful swan. I so appreciate your furniture projects as you endeavor to restore them to their original state. There are only a few restorers who I follow and they are the ones who shy away from paint unless there is so other way to make it usable again. I'm not a huge fan of the "scuff sand and paint" restorers, especially when they have a piece that is truly worthy of restoration to the original finish. Thank you for your content.
An old rough dresser like that one is exactly why I would choose it. By doing a project that may be a bit beyond my skill level I am forced to improve. You did a fine job it turned out nice. Thank you for sharing.👍
That looks beautiful!! I really like the character of the imperfections too 😊 Between taking your time with sanding and the wax finish the wood looks like it’s buttery smooth! Well done!
Its wonderful Barry. We used to have one of those dressers in the basement to store my grandmothers fabric and lace. Yes alot of them were made during their time but few still exist in one piece. Beautiful result Barry ❤
Hello Barry, I’m so glad you took a chance on this dresser. It looked like a lost puppy hoping someone would take it home. Looks beautiful and happy once again to be used. I first pictured it in a nice beach themed home or a farmhouse. I prefer the lighter color. Great job. Take care, stay cool, Joyce ❤️🙏🇺🇸
Oh my, you did a phenomenal job on that old beauty. Love the light wood, my favorite is natural light wood furniture, like oak. You are a truly amazing at what you do. Keep it up 😊

What I like so much about real wood is that it's durable, and fixable. It also has its own natural beauty.
leaving the wood natural and unstained is just gorgeous!.
And the light wood gives it a scandi vib. I am waiting to hear from him, but I am thinking there is no finish to damage. It probably feels like velvet.
Agreed. Very fresh and calming look! Nice work Sir Barry. 😎 💙

💚
Always a joy to see you work Barry and I admire your gentle spirit.
This is a beautiful dresser from start to finish, (the pink was well intended 💗💞💗).
Thank you! 😊

Amazing!! You could just see the beauty under all that old "bubble gum" paint. Very nice job!! It looks so brand new now!!
Thank you very much!
What a sweet little dresser that turned out to be under your care! Beautiful job!
WOOOOW!! The woodgrain is gorgeous! Thankyou for leaving it natural!
Wow what a transformation, the before looks tired well loved used and heavy, now it looks light and totally refreshed.

I really enjoyed this video. Straight forward with whimsical music. It was exactly what I needed. Thanks Barry!

Just beautiful, Barry. The colour is natural but not cold and the satin lustre the wax produces is lovely. Thank you.
Thank you
I have to say Barry you have done a fantastic job on this piece it will look great in someone's home
Really great work Barry, have a nice day. Brian UK !!!.😀😀👍👍🏁.
Gorgeous. The natural waxed finish is lovely.
Look for old books on refinishing. The old guys give you recipes for finishes and the old style tools used. You can learn a lot from them
The finish is beautiful.

That was a dresser that had a faux oak finish originally. Very nice clean finish you gave it.
You mean like a tiger oak finish? The reason I would argue that is that they were carful and selective with the veneer.
@@rockshot100 you can see the painted oak finish underneath as he was stripping it off.
