    In this video I challenge Jay from ‪@Flippingdrawers‬ to work his magic on the worst piece of furniture i could find for him. Jay returns the favour and finds me this extremely challenging piece. We had a great time doing this and hope you enjoy the challenge too. Go and see Jays video to see his amazing work.

    The question is, who has the better assistant? David’s ever playful Daisy or Jay’s loving cat? It could be a draw.

    Fantastic collab! Enjoyed both videos so much. Even though that was a super ugly piece, I think your pick for Jay was worse! Lol! So much fun watching both videos though and I cant believe how nice that purple monstrosity turned out! Wow! Loved watching these and thank you so much for all the hard work that goes into putting these on TH-cam for us to enjoy! I hope you two do more challenges in the future! Great to see Daisy too!😄👍🐕

    • @MayfieldRestorations
      @MayfieldRestorations  ปีที่แล้ว +3

      Hi Jennifer. What a great comment and I totally agree that Jay had a much worse piece than me. I felt a little but guilty as I was watching the premiere. I knew I’d chosen a challenging piece but didn’t realise it was quite that bad. 😂😂👍

  • @christinebauer3489
    @christinebauer3489 ปีที่แล้ว +6

    This piece started out as something I would have loved when I was a teenager. Somebody put in a lot of work decoupaging all that flowered paper on there, and the purple was just what my teen-aged self would have loved! That being said, you did a fantastic job breathing new life into this old piece. Great attention to detail. You have so much patience.

    • @MayfieldRestorations
      @MayfieldRestorations  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Hi Christine. This piece definitely had its place at one time in the past but it was crying out to be given a new look. I’m pleased you liked the end result 😀😀

  • @justkiddin84
    @justkiddin84 ปีที่แล้ว +4

    You guys might also want to point out that joining TH-cam itself is also free. Folks may be watching without the app, thinking it costs also. I love YT! Truly, it is very nice seeing real people and chatting with other viewers and learning from it. No ‘influencers’ for me, tho.
    I joined both of your channels pretty much at the same time, love the competition. It’s inspiring seeing you guys do what you love! I also watch Dashner Designs from the US and Modern Makeovers (if you like mid century and newer, he’s your guy).
    I will say that if this piece had been originally painted or particle board, the paint and flowers would have been good. But it was sinful to do that to this!
    Beautiful!❤

    • @MayfieldRestorations
      @MayfieldRestorations  ปีที่แล้ว

      That’s a great point. I just assumed that people would know TH-cam is free to use (unless you opt for premium) but I guess not everyone thinks that. I’ll take on your advice in my next video and explain how YT works for those that may not know. Thanks again for taking the time to watch and pass on your suggestion, it’s much appreciated 😀😀👍

    Ok, I have to be honest. I laughed out loud when I saw the piece Jay picked for you. My first thought was, what are you going to do with that. I thought Jay’s dresser was bad. At the end you did an amazing job with it. Absolutely beautiful. Thanks to Jay I have a new channel to follow. 😊

    This was so much fun! Thank you for the laugh! Thank you for the Daisy fix! No one will ever know what disgraceful things were done to that dresser. It looks better than new. About three years ago when I was still working, I told my clients how much I loved watching TH-cam videos, and I cannot believe how many asked me how much it cost! We seniors tend to think of the word subscription as having a fee attached. I have asked many people who were trying to grow their channels to mention that it was free. No one ever did! I'm glad you did. I cannot wait to see what you guys dig up for each other next!💜💜💜

    Hideous to handsome! Like the piece you "gifted" Jay, this project defies description. Originally it looked like a good kindling source, except for the layers of paint and paper. (Wouldn't want to be breathing the fumes from that stuff.)These videos have been a real treat. I'm so glad you two found each other. Nothing like gifted craftsmen challenging each other in what they do best.

    • @MayfieldRestorations

    This challenge is so much fun. Love the idea. You and Jay are in my the top 5 of my favorite artisans list. You both are meticulous, and, you both have excellent design and color sense. The walnut stain was perfect for the piece. At first I expected you to change the hardware, but I see at the end how perfect the hardware shape is for the total shape of the piece. The gold paint for the hardware matches a gold fleck in the stained wood. Overall it looks fabulous.

    I must say that piece looked like a lost cause, I was happily wrong. You did an amazing job keeping that piece from the landfill. I’m wondering who on earth painted that piece purple with those horrible flowers? It looked pretty atrocious! You did a wonderful job restoring it back to its original glory. Congrats to a job well done!

    Liquid fabric softener may have been a good option for removing the flowers after the clear finish was removed. It works fantastic as a wallpaper remover.

    Oh my what a lovely cocker spaniel Daisy is! She reminds me of my late Kajsa, which also was a blue roan cocker spaniel. I miss her so - she was obsessed with water, and collected stones to bring on to the beach, she also played with cones from pine trees. Have a lovely time with her - love from us in Sweden! Oh, I forgot to mention - the restoration was superb!

    That flowered paper is most likely the original brand of Contact Paper. Once it was applied, removing it was as difficult as getting a tattoo removed. Now, most self-adhesive papers are easily removed without damage to the surface to which it had been applied.
