Now you understand my pain as an antiques restorationist,..LOL .. look at the beauty and craftsmanship all that paint was hiding, those grains and quality of wood from old growth forests and the craftsman who built them.. we will never ever see again.. except in restored pieces. new forest growth will never look like these pieces, It darn near brought tears to my eyes watching you two loving restore the gorgeous old gal..lol
Thanks Kelly! It was a lot of work, but so much fun finding the surprises under all of that paint!
I kept saying "wow" all throughout the video. To find such a beauty underneath, all that paint broke my heart.
Ugly duckling has become a stunning SWAN!!!
Yes! The roaring 20's has made a comeback and she's a true beauty!
What criminal put paint on this beautiful grain? Beautiful job bringing it back
I just bought a Waterfall small 3 drawer dresser that has been painted. I want to restore it to its original life. This video has really inspired me. I've never done one. Any advice Kelly?
Man you guys struck gold on that piece! The wood grain was so beautiful underneath the paint! Well done awesome restoration! 🙂👍🏾
Thank you so much 😀
Oh my. You two really are WARRIORS Most refinishers would have painted over everything and called it good.
It was a pleasure watching you. Thank you. It’s a winner in my book
Thanks Christine!
That dresser has a unique wood grain. I`m so glad you chose to refinish and not paint. Beautiful work!
Thank you very much!
It'a a lovely piece. I have my great grandma's water fall set, but it is probably maple and has no distinctive pattern or grain, no inlays. So I'm probably going to paint it. I sure wish I had your talent! Good work!
I just love Art Deco furniture and design. I’m so glad you took that white paint off. It’s a beautiful piece. I just don’t understand why someone would cover up all the outstanding designs on the dresser. It’s positively painful thinking about it. I adore this chest of drawers, it’s a shame I can’t own it.
Thanks Chanda! Art Deco is really a unique design and it seems that they are all different!
What a gorgeous piece!! I can’t believe the beauty hiding beneath that paint . Amazing job!
Thank you so much!
Jim and Cindy, thank you for giving that grand lady back her dignity.
Thanks DJ!!!
Настоящий шедевр! И вы спасли его, воссоздав снова после вандалов, закрасивших такую красоту.
Спасибо Вам за это спасённое чудо мебельного искусства ❤️
The mineral spirits showed how the wood would have looked without staining, which was stunning. What made you decide to stain?
We really thought about just doing a clear finish but the top was off color from the drawers. Hard to tell sometimes on camera. Thanks!
Wow what a great find underneath all the paint! Always a 50/50 chance between something damaged and a hidden gem. So glad you found this hidden treasure! Beautiful restoration! I bet it helped warm up the garage using the heat gun for all that paint 🙌
Between the heat gun and our heater, it was 70° in the garage despite the 17° outside! Thanks Jenn!
OMG what a treasure you saved! Thank you for your patience and commitment.
Thanks so much!
Sooooo beautiful! I can't believe someone painted over this!
The white paint was tough but you two made it through. The end-result is amazing! Definitely a classic beauty.
Thanks so much!
The Veneer on this piece is so good! The detailed front feet - totally a labor of love removing the paint! So beautiful! You guys did a great job!!
Thank you so much Emily! It was quite the piece of work!😀
And just like that, the ugly duckling became a beautiful swan!! It amazing me how anyone could cover up such an amazing piece of furniture with paint. You guys deserve a great big pat on the back for saving this gorgeous piece of furniture.
So happy to find a channel where you reverse the damage done to an awesome piece of furniture. Your back breaking hard work and talent turned it back to the gorgeous masterpiece it was meant to be. 👏
Thanks so much!
This is such a beautiful swan! It was so poetic watching both of you, so lovingly and so carefully bring this beautiful swan back to its former glory. The best of luck to you both. This is an absolute winner!!
Thanks Camille!!!
It’s hard to believe that someone covered up that beautiful piece with that ugly white paint. You two did a flipping awesome job!
Thanks Kay!
I saw that starburst and it nearly brought me to tears. My great grandmother had an identical waterfall dresser in her home when I was a child. Unfortunately when she passed, the family split her home furnishings up among themselves. Her dresser went to my older cousin, who painted the dresser black and gold.. I saw it once after and it made me physically ill. I found out later, she donated it to the goodwill, I hope someone saved it and made it half as beautiful as this one. Thank you for saving this one.
We can't stand the thought of these ending up like this or worse, in the trash. Glad we could save it too! Thanks Jaclyn for sharing your story!
What a lovely work hiding under all that white paint. Very refreshing to see this beauty restored with such care.
Damn ! That looks awesome ! I felt your pain watching you strip that paint lol. My favourite piece so far !
Thanks Jay! That means a lot coming from you!
@@FurnitureWarriors my pleasure guys 👌
Wow!!! You guys found an amazing gorgeous hidden gem under that paint!! What a labor of love but the results are absolutely stunning! The pulls you chose are beyond perfect for this timeless beauty. Stunningly gorgeous ❤️❤️❤️You did an Amazing Restoration .. the surprises never stopped from the beautiful top to the bottom of those stunning unique gorgeous feet!
Thank you Lindsey! We appreciate it!
I’ve watched hundreds of furniture restoration videos and have never seen such stunning reveal under horrid paint. You really brought a piece of history back from the dead.
Thanks so much!!!!!
Hard to believe someone would paint over that beautiful piece of furniture.
What a stunning transformation!
Magnificent !
That is one beautiful dresser! I love this!!! Can't understand why it was painted to begin with. Great job you 2!!
Thank you! 😊
Probably someone young who wanted to update their grandma’s furniture they were given. I confess to painting a waterfall vanity white, and to add insult to injury I painted an antique cherry dresser white to match. I was 18 though, and the cherry dresser was rough. Hope someone restored it. But I need to be beaten with a stick for losing the bronze hardware.
@@Tenebarum I understand if the finish is in bad shape. I don't know what the 18 yr old me would've done. I've been given a tiger oak dresser and buffet, and a couple old dressers I can't find the makers mark in and a matching koehler dresser and vanity set with a seat. I will not paint them, or restore/ replace the mirrors. I know at ** yrs old I won't paint them under any circumstance. But I know enough now to not paint them.
What a beauty! You brought her back to her original glory. This piece reminded me of my parents bedroom suite from the 1940's.
Thanks Tamara!
OMG...!!! she's beautiful...it was a SIN to have painted that piece...thank you for turning her from ugly duckling to gorgeous swan....
This is what I call a restoration. Most diy restorations on youtube consist mainly of stifling the beautiful warm wood of the piece and burying it under layer upon layer of horrible tacky paint. This rejuvenated cabinet is truly adorable. Thank you! 👏👏👏
Thank you!!!
You two did such a fantastic job restoring this dresser,,, beautiful
Thank you so much!
Beautiful! Perfect example of how paint CAN have a positive-side! It protected all that stunning wood underneath!
Yes it did! Thanks!
Thank you, thank you, thank you, for restoring this lovely lady to her former glory. It was a lot of work, but the results were with it. I hope she finds a home with someone who will love and appreciate her.
We're sure she will! Thanks Jeanne!
When someone paints over inlays I get a pain in my chest...lol Great Job.
We weren't sure what we would find under the paint, but inlays were pretty common on art deco furniture. Glad we were able to restore it! Thanks!
Wow Warriors!!! What a beauty you found under all that paint! You both did such great work to bring it back.
Thanks so much Taryn! It was a lot of work, but so worth the end result!
How beautiful! You did a wonderful job restoring this lovely piece.
Thank you so much 😀
So much old growth & expert old school craftsmanship under all that plain white paint. I almost cried seeing the detailed trim revealed.
We're glad we could bring it back! Thanks!
Wow! Absolutely beautiful! That little lady needed y'all to make her smile again! Thanks for returning her to her old self.
Thanks Kimberly!
Why would anyone paint that inlay??? Thank you for all your hard work to restore that beauty!
Thanks Hana!
You guys did an amazing job on this piece! This is an incredible dresser and what you did to restore it was so well executed! Your color combination on the stains, your selection of hardware, even your attention to the sheens of the finishes was perfection! Excellence!🌸
Thank you so much!
STUNNING upcycle of a ruined disgustingly painted piece...thank you for restoring it to its former glory!!
Wow! You struck the jackpot finding all that beautiful wood under the paint. Absolutely gorgeous!
I love these challenges. It really shows off your abilities. Beautiful work.
Thank you so much!
OMG! That looks so good! What meticulous work.
Thanks Gail!
GORGEOUS WATERFALL DRESSER RESTORATION!!!!
💖💖💖💖💖 WOW!!
Thanks again Diane!!!
Whoever painted that lovely piece should be ashamed. Thank goodness you guys got your hands on this. Gorgeous! Great work guys.
It's a lot easier to update a piece with paint vs. refinishing with stain, so we understand, but we're also glad we can bring it back! Thanks!
Simply marvellous - a terrific transformation! Its back to being a beautiful piece of furniture! 💗💗
Thanks so much! 😊
Beautiful work! Glad you didn’t paint it.
Thank you! Cheers!
I cannot believe anyone would choose to paint that chest! It almost made me cry as you uncovered the beauty of the wood grain and workmanship. The original maker of it was probably flipping over and over in his grave as the paint was applied...
Thanks Marie!
why anyone wanted to paint over such beautiful veneer and inlay is beyond me. So thank you for bringing the piece back to its former glory!
Thanks Julie-Ann!
I am so thrilled to see someone preserve the wood instead of just painting over it. Thank you. It is so beautiful.
Thanks!!
OMG - how could someone paint such a beautiful piece of artwork. I am so glad you restored it. Well done!!
Thank you so much 😀
I love that yall restored without painting! I do love painted furniture, and I know that damage to old pieces makes painting their salvation, but, I see beautiful antiques painted and I want to cry! Beautiful job!
Thanks DeAnne! We save the ones that we can!
This one has my vote on the best ugly duckling challenge winner.
Thank you!😀
Thank for showing the original beauty of this piece. It is do our discouraging to see so many period pieces just painted over and labelled updated.
Thanks Agnes!
The ducks really add a special touch to showing off that beautiful finish!!!...
Thanks Kristina!!!
What a fantastic result. This is an antique that should be loved and handed down. The wood details that you found are priceless. You both did such a great job. It will be a lucky person that ends up with this special piece.
Thank you very much!
Look at all the beautiful wood tones in that piece. In another 90 years, it'll be painted and then stripped again, probably, as tastes change! You've made this incredibly beautiful.
Thanks Bree!
Wow!! What a miracle that this piece of furniture got into your hands. It is now a lovely swan, thanks to you!!
Many thanks!
Отличный результат! Лучше не придумаешь: элегантно и стильно.
Amazing! I never understand how someone could look at that beauty and then paint it white. Beautiful job
I never ceases to amaze me how people can paint over such beautiful wood.
Sometimes people want to change things up I guess!😀
Who could have thought there was such beauty underneath all that white paint. That wood is gorgeous. You two have done a wonderful job in making this poor unfortunate painted piece into a thing of delight anyone would love to own.
Thanks Dawn!
Absolutely knocked it out of the park on this restore/brought this piece 100% back to life....
So nice to see this lovely treasure restored to its former glory.
Glad you enjoyed it. Thanks Zoe!
I cant understand why someone would paint over so much beauty. Beautiful job.
Thanks Peggy!
Wow....wow...WOW!!!! You found a diamond in the rough and you truly gave it new life!!! Definitely a labor of love and it paid off!. Just gorgeous!!!!🔥🔥🔥

Thanks Shauna!
Wow,,,who would have ever thought this beautiful dresser was under all that ugly white latex paint. This piece is absolutely gorgeous and yous did a fabulous job restoring it. Was definitely a lot of work, but so worth it in the end. Yous couldn't have picked more perfect hardware for it. GREAT job as always Jim and Cindy. Enjoy the rest of your day! 😊
Thanks JoAnn!!
Wow! So lovely. All that craftsmanship buried under the paint...hidden treasure!
Thank you very much!
I felt so relieved knowing this piece was in your hands. See, I managed to edit out the profanity that began to sunami as each section was revealed to have it's own gorgeous personality. What a knockout!!
Glad you enjoyed it!
In my eyes you are the winners so much details on the piece was lost in paint .you brought back to life
Thank you Suvama!
What an amazing project ! Your investment in every step paid off! I’m sure this would have been chucked had you not come across it and stripped it. Wonderful video!
Not an ugly duckling anymore! Beautiful 😍!
Thanks Susan!
When I first say the paint I almost cried, what a horrible thing to do. The chest looks beautiful now and the detail in the wood veneer is fabulous. What a terrific job!
Thanks Tara!
That was a tremendous amount of work and dedication. Its beautiful and it rolled back time . Why would anyone have ever painted such a wonderful piece of furniture. Ugly duckling no more.
Thanks Charlotte!!!
OMG!! You rescued an absolute gem. What a gorgeous piece. That hardware is just amazing. What a wonderful transformation from a dull white piece to the glory of Art Deco. Bravo on a wonderful piece! I've watched most of these and I think yours should win. Hands down.
Thank you so much!
You created a lovely swan out of your ugly duckling! What hard work but it definitely paid off!
Thanks Sandra!
What kind of furniture monster would have entombed that piece in paint? You guys did a top notch job freeing it. It's glorious!
Thanks Cathie!
OMG!
If this one doesn't win, then the one that beats it has to be an undiscovered museum piece.
Thanks JoAnne!
This is so gorgeous!! I'm all about painting furniture but this was shameful to watch the white paint that covered that beautiful detail in the woodwork. Marvelous!
WOW! Just...WOW!!!
Thanks!
Amazing- this labour of love!
Thanks Helena!
It is gorgeous! You all did a fantastic job! So glad you didn’t paint it but kept it true to the period down to the hardware. Outstanding!!
Thanks so much!
From S. Carolina....great job...endless patience required to remove all that old paint...glad you could bring her back live a beautiful life again
Thanks 👍
What an exquisite piece! You did such a beautiful job of restoring it to its former glory.

How could have anyone painted over that beauty! Wow! 👍
Thanks!!
Criminal that the piece was painted. Glad you brought it back to natural. Thanks
Thanks Michelle!
What a labor of love. Gorgeous. You rescued something really special. I am scratching my head at the barbarian who put latex paint on that beautiful inlay.
Thank you so much!
I have a waterfall bedroom set which is so beautiful. Every now and then I think of painting it but I just can't bring myself to do it. You took on quite a project and should get the award for perseverance. It looks lovely.
Wow! All that beauty under that paint! Stunning! Great job restoring this timeless treasure! 👏🌹
Thanks Anita!
Wow beautiful job! I can only imagine how many people will be looking for your video in the next couple of years.
