I like how the aqua coat looks- it looked like it was quite a bit of work though- seeing you use the belt sander was cool- as always thanks for the video 😊😊
I loved it. How much easier the process is with a belt sander. What brand and motor size should we use? Great choice. So much better than my puny palm sander.
We used to foster dogs for a rescue. One of our fosters chewed a corner or two off the wood edge of our slate coffee table. My husband found metal corner covers online. They were not too expensive, easy to install and gave new life to our coffee table. That was years ago and it has lasted through many more foster dogs.
Ethan Allen design, quality and character PLUS wash/pickling look has been my favorite for decades. You did it all justice. Absolutely beautiful and timeless IMO. ❤️
Finding an Ethan Allen piece for $3 is a total score and the way you refinished it is beautiful, my favorite finish style! When we had two lab puppies years ago, they were chewing on my oak rocking chair along with other pieces, our vet suggested applying a small amount of cooking oil along with the smallest amount of cayenne pepper. It did the trick. It never harmed them and they lived to a ripe old age.
She did a terrific job, didn't she? I'd love to learn where to find a $3 Ethan Allen table. That was a stroke of luck. (or perfect timing, IDK ) All I ever see where I live are some real pieces of junk. LOL.
I now have the solution for a saved project that i have stared at for years. Thank you. It has been a joy to watch your teaching. A smile makes all the diff,doesn't it? Stay well,all of you. Even pup. Been there,done that. No stories that we all know anyway.
I agree. I get tired of seeing so much chalk paint. IMO, paint should be used as a last resort, if you have to use a lot of wood putty/filler. Or if your wood has problems taking an even stain. Never thought of using paint remover on the intricate parts that are hard to sand. I learned so much from her!
There is a spray called bitter apple. It doesn’t damage furniture and will taste bad to chewing animals (cats too!). Also, I would pair this option with providing the yummiest rawhide bones to make sure he has a better, tastier thing to chew than the bitter apple. My pit bull had the same issue due to separation anxiety so if you go somewhere and leave him home alone, keep him out of rooms with nice wooden furniture or maybe in a kennel if he’s used to kennels or likes tight cozy spaces. Good luck!
Loved your video. I'm now a subscriber. This was a finish I've never seen before. Almost like that "pickled" finish I've seen on furniture. It looks fabulous. I've only had a palm sander, but I now see the major difference a larger, more powerful belt sander makes. The color finish looks beautiful and fits with your decor. Now I've learned the technique and products you've used. Well done! Thank you.
Came upon your channel while browsing. Watching you transform a $3.00 Ethan Allen coffee table, I had to subscribe. First scratches & all, getting anything Ethan Allen for $3.00 is a big score, especially when someone with your talent does your magic. Second, your transformation is beautiful, I’m really glad you didn’t stain it. Now, I have to start playing catch up with your videos, which I’m looking forward to. Thanks for sharing your talent.
Your videos are my favorite. You have a great way about you---and your videos aren't long! I redo furniture---it's been about 8 months. Not flipped anything but I'm a little obsessed. Thanks!
You probably already know how to repair the old coffee table but if not, hot glue an undamaged corner to create a mold and then fill the mold with Bondo and place it over the damaged corner. My "culprits" chewed the corners off the baseboards around the posts and off of the nightstands and one chair arm. Love the cerused look!
yes! Thank you! I have done that on some nightstand's so I will have to revive the old one again by doing that! thanks for the tip and thanks for watching!
I really want to try the aqua coat. The finish is fabulous. I think some furniture is white washed too pale. This effect is subtle and dramatic at the same time. Will order from your link as soon as I get the right piece to use it with. Right now, my garage is crammed with "projects". Wonderful job!
New tool I would choose a router. I’ve really been wanting to make my own friends here for sometime that while to bit intimidating I know I have the creative flare and design savvy to pull it off. Routers are really cool and I’m definitely going to be investing one very soon to do my own customwork
Well my dear, that was a great score and an awesome makeover. I’m older and love antiques but this looks so fresh and clean love it!❤. Good luck with the dog!
Love the subtleness of the Aqua Coat, the wood takes on the ceruzing in a soft way. Would you do on a dining table ? i would love the surf prep- belt sander after that !
I’m looking forward to getting an orbital sander for Craft work and I’m going to need it to refinish the top of my dining room table. I’m so glad you didn’t paint this beautiful Ethan Allen piece and also happy that you reused the handles. I think you could’ve used watered acrylic paint for your wash look - probably cheaper? But it looks lovely.
Dogs respond very well to the command “OUT”! Bark it a little bit. It makes them back up. If they go towards someone. Or go towards the street. Or fire. Or your sandwich. Or the coffee table!! It works so well because it’s the sound mother Dogs make to imply danger to the pups. Like I used to say to my children “It’s not a toy” ! When they were too little to handle glass Knick knacks. Or if they were beginning to put a chunky book towards their mouth “It’s not for your mouth”!
Amazing find! Beats table! Gorgeous color wash! I would prefer to get my hands on the surf prep with the foam attachments that allows sanding on curved surfaces. I remember the old table that the dog damaged...! This new one us also perfect for your living room. The only way he wouldn't damage the table is if you put some of his toys in the space and maybe don't let him unattended in there. Thanks so much for sharing
That’s awesome! It’s so nice when you can find quality flipables at great prices! One day, I would love to add the festool sanders that you can use on rounded surfaces.
Thank you so much! I appreciate you tuning in! Hope to see you next time! and I agree Cindy, I think my surfprep has been my best investment so far but my festool is a close second!
I have 3 dogs that love to chew the corners of my woodwork. I tried everything from spraying the molding with bitter apple to spraying the dogs with a water gun when I caught them in the act. I finally broke all 3 of woodwork chewing by rubbing a little hot sauce on their favorite chew spots. They each chewed once, drank a whole bowl of water and haven’t touch the wood since!
Hey Everyone! What did you think of the Aqua Coat and of the belt sander on today's flip? Which one do you want to try or BOTH!?
I like how the aqua coat looks- it looked like it was quite a bit of work though- seeing you use the belt sander was cool- as always thanks for the video 😊😊
so glad you liked it @@onetimearound1275 !
❤❤❤! A beautiful outcome!
I’d give the Aqua coat a try. I would leave the belt sanding to my husband. The one we have is a beast!

oh that is a great tip!! Thank you for fostering! We rescue and foster bully and shar-pei breeds. They are so close to my heart! thanks for watching!
BONDO TO REPAIR OR WOOD FILLR THATS PLASTIC WITH A LITTLE WOOD TEMPLATE
Thank you for fostering 😮
Thanks for fostering!❤
So glad you left the coffee table without a stain. It’s beautiful!
Thank you! I love it this way

Wow, thank you! Glad you enjoyed!

Awesome! Thank you!
So pretty with all those white flecks and the lighter wood. Love it Kara ♥
thank you my buddy! I am watching yours now : )
In case you haven't tried Murphys oil soap, it cuts polish and wax like a charm. I love it.
I bought a belt sander for my deck. It's a seriously powerful tool. Flat surface and real wood only for sure!
I've watched this video a few times now because it 's AMAZING!!! This is so beatuiful, one of my favorites! Thank you for sharing!
So glad you didn't stain the coffee table. It looks great.
Me too!!
A de-nailer! I do a lot of rustic projects with reclaimed pallet wood and being able to shoot the nails out effortlessly sounds like heaven!
I now have the solution for a saved project that i have stared at for years. Thank you. It has been a joy to watch your teaching. A smile makes all the diff,doesn't it? Stay well,all of you. Even pup. Been there,done that. No stories that we all know anyway.
Thank you so much! I appreciate you tuning in! Hope to see you next time!
You did an EXCELLENT job, just not my personal finish choice. I WILL now get that belt sander!
that looks fantastic! And I love that you got it for $3.00!!!
I love the coffee table without stain. I think it is beautiful. You did a great job.
Thank you so much! I appreciate you tuning in! Hope to see you next time!
BEAUTIFUL SUCH A CREATIVE PIECE OF FURNITURE VINTAGE SOLID AND USA MADE AND YOU MADE IT HAPPY AGAIN NOW FOR THE POOCH WELL GOOD LUCK
Thank you so much 😊I know right! I have to figure out a way to keep him away from this one!
So pretty with the light wood shining through. Many people would load it up with chalk paint….love it like this. ❤
Thanks so much 😊

Loving this Look!! I’ll have to see that gel again!!❤❤❤
thank you Cathy! It was fun to use!

It looks great! I really like the Aqua Coat effect. I was also thinking it would make a beautiful desk, just have to change out the legs.
Awesome idea of making into a desk!

Thanks so much! I really love how this piece turned out!
Put a dab of tea tree oil or citrus oil underneath corners out of sight underneath and the smell puts them off👍🐾🐾🐾🐾
Gorgeous results!!!❤
Thank you! Cheers!
Wow looks beautiful. $3.00 I cannot believe it. I like the natural color Aqua Coat was a shock to me the way it worked. Good job.
thank you Donna! Appreciate you always being here! have a great week!

Beautiful transformation. Yesterday I bought two end tables and a coffee table that I would love to look like this!
You can do it! Just set a few days aside. Take a break when you get sick of sanding :)
This is fabulous. Great outcome Kara. You are so talented 💖
Thank you so much! 😊

Love the final look and you made it look so easy.
thank you so very much!
Excellent work 😊
It's pretty but I think I would like a walnut finish but I am 74 years old and I like antiques.😊
So beautiful! Great find! Enjoyed from Texas!
Glad you enjoyed it!
I love the new look! Great choice on the finish and color. It’s definitely a keeper. Glad you got a new sander. Love your channel.
Thank you @janhaley1212! This makes me smile! So happy to hear! Hope to see you next time!

Great job really like the finish
Thank you! Cheers!
I have got admit I had my doubts half way through, but the end result is b beautiful.
That’s awesome! It’s so nice when you can find quality flipables at great prices! One day, I would love to add the festool sanders that you can use on rounded surfaces.

This is gorgeous!❤
Omg I want that! I have been on the hunt & you just helped me make a design decision on the finish😊thnx for the inspo, you are so talented ❤
You are so welcome! I'm thrilled this helped! I love French Provencal style so this works great for that!
It looks great Kara!
That is gorgeous!!
Just beautiful
Thank you! Cheers!
Good job it look really good
Good find !! What a beauty !! Turned out perfect ❤
Thank you! Cheers!
Thanks for sharing your tips
Love the transformation and the quickness of the belt sander. Has your dog bitten the new table?
lol....not yet...
What a score and it came out very nice!
Thank you so much! I appreciate you tuning in! Hope to see you next time!
It looks amazing!
Gorgeous!
WOW❤❤❤Love it!!!! Please do more of this finish. Looks great!
Thank you so much! I appreciate you tuning in! Hope to see you next time!
Couldnt you have used the belt sander again? With a lower grit for the sake of time?
I didn’t have the grit I needed. I could have!
First time to your channel. That is so lovely. Great job and it was really interesting watching your process.
love it!
Wow! Fantastic. I definitely have to try that Aqua Coat, I love that look. It was ugly and banged up and you did such a beautiful job♥️
This is a beautiful coffee table. I got rid of a similar one and wish that I hadn't.
Beautiful color
What a beautiful piece, and you did a great job. 😊
Thank you! Cheers!

I LOVE the look of this table!!! In retrospect, could you have achieved relatively the same look with a paint wash?
Unfortunately not. It would ah e just washed out the overall color and not just seeped into the veining. I wished it would have! lol much easier!
I’d love to try both!
Looks so good now
