    David, you will never please everyone. There will always be different opinions on EVERYTHING. You have an incredible gift and you will never be happy if you don't follow your heart. The imagination and vision that you share with us makes you one of a kind in the you tube world. Don't let the negativity of a few unhappy people spoil this journey for you and the rest of us who love you and your work. Thank you for sharing this with us. My MAX sends best wishes to Daisy and Trevor is cute as can be, but he is no Daisy🙂

      PS, how did you replace the leather/ fabric?

    • @MayfieldRestorations
      @MayfieldRestorations  ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Hi Melissa. In this case I actually just removed the old vinyl, sanded the area smooth and then painted the insert and waxed to protect. I have in the past replaced the leather or restored it but this was cheap vinyl. I’ve also used wallpaper in the past to add a decorative inlay and protected with poly topcoat.

    You’re never going to make everybody happy and you’ll take the joy out of it for yourself if you do try. It’s nice that you appreciate our feedback and you want us to enjoy this, but please don’t let it take the fun out of it for ya. I do have to tell you that I love this piece and I was excited to see what you were going to do with it and you satisfied every twist of what could’ve been done with this that I like. I was wanting to see you do some painting and I wanted that leather inside preserved but I also wanted that beautiful Venere restored and you managed to do it all. I love the color choices from top to bottom inside and out. And the details the above and beyond extra details you did. It’s a piece I would love to have in my own home❣️❣️❣️

Unhappily no one can please all of the people all of the time. I think that you keep things moving along at a pleasing rate showing different stages. I can find no fault with your vlogs. Daisy has her own fan club of which I am a member, just one of many. To sum up, keep on doing what you are - please don’t change a thing.

    You asked for a comment, so here it is. I watch most videos on my TV, so comments are not available for me there. I was worried about paint v stain on this desk, but I watch your channel because your work is very beautiful! I also like that you wax/feed the inside if the drawers making them ‘user ready’ that not all restorers are doing in their videos. Many other watchers may not comment because they just enjoy watching, others who post negative comments just ignore, not worth it. You repeatedly prove your care for furniture and have creative ideas for upscale of your pieces. Well Done! From SJ,CA,USA.

    Definitely a personal choice situation. As someone who loves wood in its natural state I can't say I like the look of the finished product. That said, surprisingly, the purple, banded in gold, does go well with the walnut burl. I do not care for the white on the interior. From a functional perspective, you did a great job restoring the piece. What matters most is whether the customer likes it. Cheers!

    After reading the wood vs. paint comments (which by the way are ALL over TH-cam) I have come to the conclusion that I am really an odd-duck. I love the paint AND wood combination when it is done well. I have seen many pieces done where painting parts of the furniture has enhanced the look of the wood and made it look even better than if it had been stripped, stained and clear-coated only.

    Hi David, I enjoy your videos just as they are. I find them very relaxing and enjoyable especially after a stressful work week. You do amazing work. I hope you don't change anything and I whole heartedly agree with the comment by Anita Morales. Give Daisy and Trevor a pat for me. Thank you for your videos!! Cheers :)

    Hi David! I've been enjoying both your and Jay's channels ever since your cross-challenge popped up. I love antiques, fine art, and restorations of the older quality items that were made. Both of your work ethics are just amazing, as well as the transformation of something old and beat up, to it's former glorious state. Please keep up the great work and wish I could see it in person. From across the Pond in Ohio! Cheers! btw, Daisy is adorable!

    I can imagine your client was exceptionally pleased with your efforts David - absolutely beautiful. I agree with @Anita Morales you'll never please all the people all the time. This is the way I see it: I'm allowed to watch a talented guy make over furniture. Your camera work is great, sound too. I'm happy just to hang out with you watching you perform your magic. As Anita says, follow your imagination and feeling.

    Beautiful finished piece. I personally would have preferred it to be finished without the paint, but I’m sure you exceeded your customer’s expectations. Your work and videos are excellent. As far as music, the music in this video was fine, although just your narration would be sufficient for me. Thank you for sharing your excellent work.

    Normally I do not like painting over nice wood. And I'm not crazy about painting over this wood. However you do such a fine job accenting the wood that remains. I couldn't help but admire this piece and actually think of how nice it would look in my living room! Finally adding the gold was a stroke of genius. I'm sure you're a client was absolutely thrilled.

    Hello David, I am a NEW subscriber and have "binged" most of your fantastic vides (today) due to your wonderful content. I love seeing your vision come to live for the pieces you share with us. Love Daisey girl. I especially love the written section intros which make me anxious to see the next step. I think you are well on your way making engaging videos that show process, product, and a glimpse of you! Thanks from the USA!

    Just do what you want. It is your channel. You will always attract those who have to whinge. As previously said, you will not please everyone. If I don’t like a channel I stop watching. I don’t get rude at somebody with such skills I could never even dream of. You are a pleasure to watch and listen to. Keep up the good work. From Sandbach in Cheshire.

    Trevor is adorable but then he’s a Shih Tzu. I have two of them and I adore them. While I myself would never paint that beautiful wood I suppose everyone’s tastes are different and you did a great job. Well done.

    • @MayfieldRestorations
      @MayfieldRestorations  ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Hi Chanda, he is a lovely little dog and he sticks to me like glue when we look after him. I love all dogs. Thanks for your constructive comment regarding the piece, I know not everyone likes painting but like you say everyone has different tastes. 😀😀👍

Makes the show even funner to watch. 😉. And by the way I was leary about the purple with the redish wood. But it turned out stunning.

    • @MayfieldRestorations
      @MayfieldRestorations  ปีที่แล้ว

      Hahaha Hi Agi, you are too kind with your compliment. I’m blushing 😂😂 so pleased you liked the final look of the piece as I know the purple is quite a bold choice. 😀😀😘👍🐶

    When I heard you say that it will be painted, my heart drooped a bit thinking of the wonderful burl veneer... but then you didn't paint that part! I'm not crazy about the purple paint (and purple is my favorite color) because I like natural wood the most,. The work you did was complete and exquisite, and I do understand it was what the customer wanted. I subbed last week after watching you with Flipping Drawers. Cheers from Tennessee, USA!

Ive inherited my parents furniture and its all Kling of New York furniture. All of it is solid cherry with a mahogany stain. Ive been cleaning and repairing it as i watch and learn from your videos. I know its done properly, as youve demonstrated. Love Howards beeswax and citrus. Thank you again!

      Hi Tom, that is so great to hear that my videos have helped you keep your family pieces for many years to come. These vintage pieces are much better quality, not all of them I admit, but generally they are manufactured much better out of much better materials. Keep up the good work and I hope my videos can keep helping. Thanks again 😀👍

I think you should continue doing things exactly the way you are and you will find the people who like what you do. Let the others move on to a channel that’s more their style, but you will have no problem getting subscribers.

    I’ve recently started watching these videos and I got to your channel via Jay from Flippingdrawers. All I can say is that I’m in awe of art in motion. On the point of constructive feedback all I can say is that it’s better watching videos like these that better people and better things that once were discarded. The more of Daisy and co the better. Editing is fine, we are not professional filmmakers and we don’t expect you to be. Great job and keep it coming, faults and all, we don’t care about that.
