My mom just died on February 8 , 2024 , I needed something to help me relax , let God open another door for me! You did it , I love your sweet mellow voice , just helps with my sorrow yet picks me up ! Beautiful work as usual, I would love to have them in my bedroom! Thank you for your video & your voice I use as therapy!
I also live with chronic pain amongst a few other "ailments". I enjoy the videos and imagining how I could use what l see being done on some of my own furniture that needs work. 😏
I think the two little tables are divine. They would compliment any bedroom. You kept them natural and it showed off the grain of many strains of wood types. Bravo,Jay!❤
By leaving the wood natural it had a beautiful golden glow. They sprang to life. A darker color would not have done them justice. Again the eye if a craftsman saw the beauty within.
People put liner in the drawers to protect them... my liners are never ever glued in because I change them if something gets on them... you are a wonderful artist!!! I cry when people paint solid wood or antiques...
I love these little side tables. Gorgeous for a cottage look and the different shades of wood added to their character. Great job Jay as usual. Thank you for sharing loved watching ❤
Came out real nice. Used many a can of Never Dull during my Navy days. You know Jay, I’ve been watching you for a while now and I’m beginning to think you know what you’re doing. 😊
Such beautiful little tables. Again, so glad they landed with you. They look like they've just got a big dose of love and now they look happy. Great job Jay. Always in admiration of your work. You know this buddy.
I wonder if anybody sees your videos after you purchase something of theirs on marketplace, and thinks “ I wish I would’ve thought of doing that!” these are stunning! Very wonderful work, and I can’t wait for the mid century challenge!😊❤😊
People used to cover shelves and insides of drawers in paper to protect the wood - it was easy to replace when necessary without costly renovation. The pattern may not fit your aesthetics but someone liked it.
I always laugh at the “2000 years later” I love the voice. These pieces r so delightful. They will give a room an elegant look. Beautiful job as always. Thank you for teaching us.
Jay, thanks for posting. I used to have poor reproduction of French Provencial furniture and it was white/off white. I'm sure this will be nicer. And, thank you for helping me through my very dark days after my Mom's sudden passing. PS: Hugo thanks for stopping by❤
My heart is broken today. I found out my almost 29 yr old son has a drinking problem. He’s in Ohio and I’m in South Carolina. If you don’t think that certain content on TH-cam can’t help you find peace for a moment than you’re sorely mistaken. I have faith in God to help my son find help that he needs and there’s comfort in that. But sometimes watching something like flipping drawers helps my well-being for the moment. So thank you Jay. I appreciate you
😳 I’m so sorry to hear that Jodi. I know how hard it is to get out of that. I’m glad you enjoy my videos and really hope he can find the strength to quit.
You have faith in God, your son has probably faith in you. We are fathers until our last breath. I hope you are close enought to help. Wish you the best, as long as there is hope, life finds its way like the river finds its path trought the rocks. Sunny days will come back, alcool is not an unbeatable ennemi.
For what it's worth, most of my family has problems with alcohol. My sister just admitted to it in her 50s. She has turned her life around and I am so proud of her. If your son told you he has a drinking problem, I think that's wonderful! He is young enough to keep it from really hurting his health. Hang in there.
For anyone watching this video... this is a restoration! A restoration is not changing the use of the piece, it is not painting the piece to cover up damage. A restoration is returning the piece to its original functionality, to its original appearance, as much as possible. Absolutely wonderful work done here! Beautiful and high quality crafts!
Thank you for a wonderful video. The wood colour: There is a word: If you can not hide something, highlight is as if it was meant to be. There for, I would leave it as it is; this way it's a truly unique piece of furniture. I, at least, like it very much the way it is with its different wood colours.
Beautiful! Their color variations make them more 'real' - perfectly, all one tone has it's place - but these tables have such a warm character and charm. Would look lovely in my 1850 Colonial!
Being from Alberta Canada I’m amazed and horrified by all the wood worm damage on vintage furniture. I don’t think we encounter it too much in the prairies. Love the little tables, thanks.
This was a beautiful restoration. Your sense of humor is so adorable, it makes the videos more enjoyable. I miss all the kitties also. At least there's one around.
The. "two thousand years later" was a whimsical touch which really made me laugh. You do lovely, artistic work. Your comment that sanding is such "fun" also added to enjoyment of your program, while you created something beautiful. Thank you!
I have to say that I kinda liked them before already, but now, after all the work you put in, they are absolutely stunning and will surely be loved by their future owners. I love how you give old and neglected pieces a new life.
Lining drawers and shelves isn't done to cover ugly or damaged wood, it's done to protect it. It seems to have worked well because the wood inside the drawers is perfect!😊

☹️ I’m really sorry 😔 glad my videos help to keep your spirit up 💛
So sorry 🙏🏻
I totally agree with you that letting the wood grain show through is just beautiful. Well done.
I love these little bedside tables! I like that you left them natural instead of staining them. Thanks!
You are so welcome!
AMAZING work Jay! They turned out so nice
Thanks Jason ;-) I love them
These are the most beautiful bedside tables EVER. I am in love with them!!!! And the different wood colours only make them even better!!!
🤩
I live with chronic pain. Watching these videos make me happy.
I am glad I can help a little 😊
I also live with chronic pain amongst a few other "ailments". I enjoy the videos and imagining how I could use what l see being done on some of my own furniture that needs work. 😏
Gorgeous! Natural was the way to go!!
I think so too! thank you
I appreciate sympathetic restoration and admire people who have the patience for it. Well done!
Great as always, Jay! They'll have a second long life now.
I kinda liked the retro wallpaper ‘thingy’! My grandma lined all the drawers of her furniture, even from new. She said it protected them! 😂
And she wasn't wrong! With only a little bit of mineral spirit to remove the traces of glue, it looks brand new!
I liked the sweet wallpaper, too.
These are absolutely radiant now! Very nice!😺
I'm so happy for you that you got to do tons of sanding this time since it's your favorite! 😹
I love these before and after
Absolutely beautiful! It is so satisfying watching vintage furniture come back to life!
So delicately made, unlike other wood dressers and cabinets.
I think the two little tables are divine. They would compliment any bedroom. You kept them natural and it showed off the grain of many strains of wood types. Bravo,Jay!❤

Stunning! Beautiful job 👏
Thank you! 😊

That turned out to be quite lovely! Good choice!
Glad you decided to keep them natural - the results are beautiful! And worthwhile all the sanding 😂😉❤
Thanks so much 😊
I love them already!!
I love these little side tables. Gorgeous for a cottage look and the different shades of wood added to their character. Great job Jay as usual. Thank you for sharing loved watching ❤
Sweet beautiful pair of side tables 💕🐞🦋
“I think this keeps you humble.” I love this channel!
Thank you 🤩
my mother used to line drawers, she thought it looked nice, was relatively quick to replace, and made it easier to find what she was looking for.
It is so good that you keep a sense of humor and humility. These tables turned out beautifully
In a word, beautiful! 👏👍✨😍❤
Thank you so much 😀
They turned out quite beautiful. Well done!
Amazing transformation. You brought out a movement and flow in those pieces that wasn't there before. Absolutely stunning! Great work!!
Thank you 🙏
Such a beautiful wood color and grain! Awesome matching color on the drawers! Adorable nightstands! Thanks so much for sharing
Thank you! Cheers!
Came out real nice. Used many a can of Never Dull during my Navy days. You know Jay, I’ve been watching you for a while now and I’m beginning to think you know what you’re doing. 😊
Jay: a wonderful restoration job. They are so sweet and functional. Those night tables should sell very fast. Kudos to you. Carol from California
Glad you like them!
Simply gorgeous! Wishing I lived "across the pond" because I have a few antiques that need your tender loving care😊
Such beautiful little tables. Again, so glad they landed with you. They look like they've just got a big dose of love and now they look happy. Great job Jay. Always in admiration of your work. You know this buddy.
I do ☺️ thank you Emer 💛
So beautiful
Lovely makeover and beautiful wood grain!
I wonder if anybody sees your videos after you purchase something of theirs on marketplace, and thinks “ I wish I would’ve thought of doing that!” these are stunning! Very wonderful work, and I can’t wait for the mid century challenge!😊❤😊
Yes they do🙂 sometimes I send them links or pictures
What lovely pieces!
Hey hey there's King 👑 Midas. Everything you touch turns to gold!❤😊
Some wood will bleed on your fine fanrics. Maybe thats why the paper was on. Thanks for your videos.
These are such pretty little tables. Your perseverance with some (most😂) of your projects is really inspiring.
You do such great work. ❤
The best way to match the color is...... don't. Let the piece do what it wants. They are gorgeous!!!
Such elegant lines in these little tables. Good for you spotting their potential.
Elegant pieces! Well done! Much more beautiful afterwards.
Thank you so much 😀
They are beautiful
Gorgeous! Well done!
People used to cover shelves and insides of drawers in paper to protect the wood - it was easy to replace when necessary without costly renovation.
The pattern may not fit your aesthetics but someone liked it.
While I'm not sure if I like the paper I did think it fit the style of the little tables, I love that style it's beautiful
@@teariana1 I agree - it's a nice antique pattern.
You have magical hands to be able to do it so well!! What a blessing!
Thank you! Cheers!
I always laugh at the “2000 years later” I love the voice. These pieces r so delightful. They will give a room an elegant look. Beautiful job as always. Thank you for teaching us.
Great job on those end tables!!!

Glad I can help a little and sorry for your loss 😔
The wood grain is quite striking. That lighter strip in the front of one is unusual. Glad that Hugo comes and gives you a sanding break.

I agree, I watch Jay every Sunday. He is so calming to watch and I always feel better. I hope your son gets the help he needs. Love and light x

It looks so much better now

Beautiful outcome!
Thank you!
Oh my gosh! I think those tables are so cute. It's so hard to find unique pieces.
I am glad you restored the pieces to be natural.

I absolutely love love love your channel. Thank you for sharing.
Awesome! Thank you!
They turned out beautifully. As for me, I love a dark cherry color. But they truly are beautiful!

Thanks ;-)
4:58 it's the giggle for me 🥰
I wish you where my neighbour. I would buy a lot from you. Incredible how you bring the quality and class look back.
I appreciate that
Gorgeous, thank you for letting them just be!❤🎉
This is an astounding transformation. Great job!
Just beautiful. Always a pleasure to watch you work your magic.
The tables are beautiful Jay. I think you made the right choice not to stain them. I'm looking forward to the MCM challenge.
It's relaxing and you have a calm way about you.❤
They are absolutely beautiful!🤩. You do such amazing work!!❤❤❤❤❤
Thank you so much!
I don't know, I kind of miss that wallpaper liner……..😂 Wonderful job!
The. "two thousand years later" was a whimsical touch which really made me laugh. You do lovely, artistic work. Your comment that sanding is such "fun" also added to enjoyment of your program, while you created something beautiful. Thank you!
Glad you enjoyed it!
These look so nice! I LOVE seeing what you do with pieces of furniture to restore them and make them shine again! ❤🎉❤
Holy smokes! That is like night and day. Awesome work. ❤
Thanks Angie ☺️ not as beautiful as yours 😉
My first thought was a dark gray or black stain, but they turned out nicely.
I have to say that I kinda liked them before already, but now, after all the work you put in, they are absolutely stunning and will surely be loved by their future owners. I love how you give old and neglected pieces a new life.
Chef's Kiss
You have done a fantastic job with the pair of small tables. Absolutely gorgeous, wow! Thank you.
Wow Thank you! 😊
Love the grains with pure wood.. thank you
Beautiful work, as usual!
Thank you so much 😀
You never disappoint
Loved that you kept these natural. Beautiful!
Love the natural look. Good job!
Lining drawers and shelves isn't done to cover ugly or damaged wood, it's done to protect it. It seems to have worked well because the wood inside the drawers is perfect!😊
BEAUTIFUL 😮
You are so talented! These tables are so beautiful.
