omg the stencil is absolutely to die for, what a honey of a cabinet, I see the cabinet living a wonderful second chance and those drawers will bee a hive of activity bee-ing slid open and shut regularly. Love the design and colour choices on this cabinet.
What an amazing difference. Not only did you save that piece from the trash but someone is going to have a piece to love in their home. Great job, I’m impressed.
You are UNBELIEVABLE! You remind me of a loving, caring, patient nurse who takes time and nurtures someone back to health. And you call her a she! Bravo! What an inspiration! Ur my fave furniture restorer! 😊💖
Hi, I applaud your willingness to take on a project like this. As someone who has refinished many pieces of furniture. The thing you may have overlooked on this piece is that broken leg became damaged by termites. You can see the telltale signs of the channeling and tiny holes. If you see this in the future you may want to bag it and use a termite fogger before bring it into your home. Hope this helped and great job.
Beautiful! I’m a big fan of black and the stencil 🥰 I about fell out a my chair when you said Guthrie Oklahoma! I lived there a few years in the 90’s. But as my little neighbors said “I moved back to the Hightop Mountains in Idaho. Good Memories ♥️
I have lived on Oklahoma my whole life. Just moved to Guthrie in November though. We love it. Such a cute small town for once being the capitol of our state. ❤
Don't apologize for what you do so well. Its the details we love. Its an appreciation for the creativity and hard work YOU put into these projects. Keep going...
This is not only one of the best ugly duckling challenge entries, but one of the most amazing rescues I've seen. I'm pretty brave about trying to save furniture, but I'd have bypassed that one altogether. Bravo for not only saving her, but turning her into a work of art!
The veneer will come off quicker if you use a hot iron over the wet cloths. As the heat softens the glue, furniture of this age usually used animal glue which is reversible
WOW, what a transformation, beautiful! I have learnt so much from watching your videos, thanks for sharing your talent and knowledge. Wishing you many blessings from Australia 🇦🇺
You put your blood sweat and tears into that old buffet and made a piece of art. I really enjoyed watching all the prep actually, everybody has their own approach thank you for sharing yours. Great job 👏!!!
Amazing. Thanks for the video. I tried to watch it before but gave up. Then I came across a piece of furniture in the same shape as this one. Now I am studying the video extremely closely over and over again. Thanks gor the help!
OH MY !!!!! Indeed a LABOR OF LOVE ! This piece is stunning ! WOW WOW WOW! Never would anyone realize what she looked like before nor do I think they would believe it is is the same piece ! JUST STUNNING ! I am amazed with the work you put into this ! God bless you for your work on this ! These old piece are a lost piece of Art and grand grand save ! ❤️❤️❤️❤️
Seriously, this is a beautiful transformation and labor of love. For sure you gotta give yourself kudos for getting this done and back to a swan like level. Love the Bea stencil too!
I can’t believe the repairs you had to do to this piece. Sweetheart you must have the patience of Job. You deserve the award. The piece is stunning. ❤️✅
Absolutely amazing Job... To you & your husband... 10 or 20 years ago people would never touch furniture what was old & tacky.. Now good furniture are hard to find... Any furniture with deep drawers & dovetail joints or any joints are worth keeping... You can go out & buy them new, You be paying the price..
This is just a phenomenal make over.!!!! It really is a work of art. I love how you teach everyone the different repair methods. You should be very proud of it.
You truly saved this piece from the landfill! You took the words right out of my mouth, when you said she should have paid you to haul it away! Absolutely outstanding work, so much work! 👍🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻💜 New subscriber!
I ALWAYS try to incorporate some stenciling to all of my pieces. I had no idea about using the Gilding Wax. Thank you so much for sharing this! And you totally blew me away with this piece. Talk about work! YOU DID IT GIRL!! FANTASTIC!😍♥️♥️
OhMyGooodnessss🐝!!!! I just subscribed and I Love this beautiful baby-from so damaged to what your persistent repairs did for her & your artistry to bring her back to Life!!!!❤️💫❤️. I Love 🐝❤️🐝 & damask looks!!!
This was a very informative video! I just chalk painted the first coat on my 90s bed(the orange stain 90s look). I am 70 and had to wait till tomorrow to paint my second coat!
Black Swan,Oklahoma!! I am almost in tears to see how this handwrought piece could be salvaged and somehow raised from the ashes. You made my day. And the other artists were also so good. You only help each other,don't you? Our times have a chance,then. Thank you and your helping husband.
YOU ARE MY HERO!!! I've been trying to find a video on repairs for an old damaged secretary desk! You covered everything!! 👌 THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU!!!!! 😊 🙏
Certainly admire your patience with the buffet. And that you restored it to a piece anyone would be proud to have. If it was an item to keep, I would probably have chosen to put a piece of marble atop so it would be functional to place food on for self-serving. Truth is, when I noticed the thumbnail, it was first thought. Enjoyed your commentary thru video.
I’m in absolute awe! This is by far the most dramatic transformation I’ve ever seen. Definitely a labor of love and she turned out to be STUNNING!! I LOVE the stencil and pulls with the bees 🐝! 100% beautiful 🦢! 🖤💛
@@SabsRehabs I just rewatched this video and still am blown away at the condition she was in before to what you did to her! But after watching the first time I actually ordered the bee stencil! I haven’t used it yet (it’s sitting somewhere I walk past all the time) and keep thinking “I’ve got to find a piece to put this on” lol. Need to order the bee pulls too! 🐝 💛🖤
Wonderful video and beautiful results!!!!! The hard effort and time paid off in a lovely way. I love the expression on your Supervisor Pup's face. That body language and look on his face is saying the equivalent of "are we there yet?". 😂
Ugly Duckling turned Bee-utiful Swan?
omg the stencil is absolutely to die for, what a honey of a cabinet, I see the cabinet living a wonderful second chance and those drawers will bee a hive of activity bee-ing slid open and shut regularly. Love the design and colour choices on this cabinet.
Not a swan. She is a QUEEN 👑
This has to be one of the most dramatic before and afters I've seen!! So gorgeous - can't believe how much work went into it, but what a payoff!!
it is absolutely stunning, the design choice with the stencil and the colours chosen absolutely breath taking....love it so much.
If those drawers could talk! Thank you for giving this special piece a new lease on life.
I am sure they have stories to tell!!!
What an amazing difference. Not only did you save that piece from the trash but someone is going to have a piece to love in their home. Great job, I’m impressed.
I love the honey bee you put on the front
You are UNBELIEVABLE! You remind me of a loving, caring, patient nurse who takes time and nurtures someone back to health. And you call her a she! Bravo! What an inspiration! Ur my fave furniture restorer! 😊💖
Thank you so much for the kind words!
What an enormous amount of work! I admire your courage.
Thank you ❤

You actually love what you do and prove it beyond comprehension. I’m floored by your appreciation for a weathered piece of junk back to beautiful!
I love that paper you put inside the drawers classy
The original piece was giving me hives, but after the make-over is a real honey. I'm bee-dazzled by your talent.
Thank you!
Beautiful! I’m a big fan of black and the stencil 🥰

@@SabsRehabs yes fun fact!
Scraping off old veneer is extremely satisfying 😊
Breathtaking. I sure didn’t see it coming together. Your vision was spot on.
Please never apologize for taking time to show the repairs! We all learn something from your patience and determination! Lol! 😁👍🏻
Thank you!
Don't apologize for what you do so well. Its the details we love. Its an appreciation for the creativity and hard work YOU put into these projects. Keep going...

Yes we help each other and those with any questions!

Stunning 😍
Congratulations. You did a great job👌👏👏👏
Haha! I use binder clips to clamp as well!!! Beautiful job!
