A man at a thrift store told me a trick! Carry a can of bug spray with you and spray the piece down good before putting in your vehicle so you don't carry the live critters in your vehicle and take home with you!
Good advice!!! I just CANNOT handle spiders!!! And I live in Oklahoma, I kid you not, some adult wolf spiders that have made it to my patio, the size if a saucer, with body and legs!! I think I’ve had a few heart attacks this summer, they have been so bad!! So I’m going to remember this trick!!
You kept apologizing for the prep time but it showed what is really like to paint a piece. It justifies the price when people see the real labor involved. A stunning piece and I agree with everything you did to it. 👏🏼
I totally agree with you- it’s good to see what it really takes to prep a piece before paint - so many furniture painters make the prep part seem so easy but I feel it’s the hardest part sometimes- especially when you need to do repairs- I appreciate this video so much for the reality of it.
I found myself hollering at my phone “Please don’t paint it! The wood is beautiful!” But at the end I thought the final result was stunning. Good call on your part!
It looks amazing. The amount of prep work done inspired me. I’m now a new subscriber and glad I found your channel. I like the pace of your video. Beautiful finish.
There was a part of me that cried when you painted that gorgeous wood, but I'm glad you saved it none the less. You did it right, so it can be refinished in the future, and it would have been lost forever without you.
I'm SO glad this showed up in my feed. I was given a buffet table VERY VERY similar to this. This is my first piece and it's truly a labor of love like you mentioned. But your video has helped me so much about what to do. I've done all the prep work but I've been dragging my feet about everything else. Now I have confidence to finish it! Thank you!
Such a beautiful peace of furniture I can’t believe someone just left it on the side of the road. Luckily for you that you where able to get it and give it a beautiful transformation.
Facing a dilema ...picked up a well made dresser and matching chest ..wood in a rich cherry finish , can't find any manufactuer markings but drawers are dove tailed ...hardware is gorgeous ....do I refinish or paint ?
@@jayrankowitz3829 what kind of repair work needs to be done, and are those repairs within your area of expertise! That will make all the difference. If you don’t feel up to those repairs, paint is the answer! It’s only paint, and can be removed should you learn the repairs! I once had a Martha Washington sewing cabinet that bragged about solid mahogany on the tag! I was so excited until I stripped it and every board was a different color of mahogany and in no order that would make it appealing. I finally managed to stain the top so that it wasn’t too mismatched but had to give up and paint the body! Still love it!
I was raised a Puritan when it comes to wood grain. My parents and I spent hours stripping off old varnish and paint from wood. However what you did with this piece is lovely. Congratulations on the profit.
Very sensitively done. Good price,too. The color and distressing made the depth. Thank you from a first time viewer. Stay well and safe- to your whole family.
What a gorgeous makeover. I have an old sideboard that was my mom’s, that I am planning on refinishing. My mom had gorgeous antique furniture, and I inherited it. I am tired of looking at the varnished wood…I am ready for some paint. I love that blue color. It is so bold, but the perfect choice.
Just beautifully done. The black and blue combo looks awesome and yes a labor of love, but what a difference. The gilding wax is a game changer and finishing touch. Wow!
I love everything you did to this piece. The color, the painted legs, and the beautiful stencil surprise when the drawers are opened are my favorites. You have a very pleasant voice and I enjoyed watching you transform this tired old lady into a beauty again.
OMG!!! What a gorgeous piece this turned out to be.. I know once upon a time she was the shining star in someone’s home and was loved… the embellishments were so pretty only somewhere along the line she was not loved and cared for😢I think you did a phenomenal job on restoring her to the beauty she once was and now she is loved again❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️ I’m so glad I came across this video while scrolling through TH-cam.. you now have a new subbie😊😊😊
Oh, how lovely. It's so refreshing to see someone go the extra mile in the prep work. So glad to see the gold highlights all over, too. Too many people slap a coat of paint on and call it done, totally ignoring any possible detailing that could enhance. Beautiful job.
In a million years I wouldn't have put a drop of paint on that cabinet, anywhere. Honey maple stain for me, or golden pecan, or something similar. But, that's me. If distressed blue is what floats your boat, then you nailed it. Good job on the video, it was fun to watch....and very nice work! Ps, stenciling was a nice touch
Flipping is different than restoring. Restoring requires a much different talent. I too expected to see the gorgeous wood restored and my heart dropped when she said "paint"!!
i have just really started investing time and thought into pieces i started with old hand-me-downs and have graduated to to look for the right piece with vision. i love what you did and i will be referring to your methods more often
I'm usually not a fan of chalk paint or distressed furniture but this turned out beautifully! I would have this in my home and be proud to show it off. Great job!
You took someone's trash and turned it into someone's treasure, beautifully done! I'm so happy this didn't go to the landfill, it lives on in a home where it should be. 😍
Instead of removing the trim below the left door, I would have made a mold of it to create a trim for the missing piece on the right. Beautiful furniture rehab!
So glad you rescued her before she got rained on!!! You did an INCREDIBLE job! Such patience you had with this piece. This proves how the prep work certainly paid off in the end....I would not change a thing about your choices!!! AWESOME WORK!!!
You did some nice things that other furniture artist don’t. I like the fact you waxed the bottom of the drawers & the inside of the frame. You also used regular “ole” Johnson’s Paste Wax! I have a can I need to use on my old furniture & I didn’t quite know how to use it until now! Thank you! Beautiful piece & Congratulations on the quick, profitable sale!’
I appreciate the sustainable idea so much of salvaging old discarded furniture made of solid wood instead of buying new cheap Ikea furniture. I'm not exactly a fan of painted furniture, but because of the condition of this sideboard and the dated granny style, the decision is particularly convincing especially because of the classic color choice. The result is very beautiful. The furniture shines in new splendor and provides plenty of storage space, for example for crockery.
I am glad you painted the legs. It pulled everything together to make the look cohesive. Hopefully the $600 profit covers your master fly swatter extermination fees! 🪰🕷
Superbly done. Thanks so much for saving this beautiful piece from the landfill...both because of the piece AND for not allowing our landfills from being needlessly filled. You gave it the care and detailed attention it deserved, and you did it so beautifully. Thank-you again.
Wow, a relatively simple finish, but it turned out gorgeous! I picked up an old buffet off the side of the road and couldn't decide how to refinish it; now I do!
I think you brought out her beauty again for a new generation! Appreciate how you prep and the final details were lovely! Good job on the profit margin as well.
Beautiful finish and perfect hardware. I wish you could have saved part of the finish on doors and maybe the legs. The center shield on the doors was beautiful wood.

Most of the time I really enjoy seeing painted pieces. This one broke my heart it’s such a gorgeous piece says it was.
A man at a thrift store told me a trick! Carry a can of bug spray with you and spray the piece down good before putting in your vehicle so you don't carry the live critters in your vehicle and take home with you!
That is a great!
Great tip!!!!

Great idea! Thanks
Yes even windex some non flammable type to melt those little exoskeletons . Sorry silverfish 😁
Lady you got skills. Just perfect results.
Thank you! You are making me blush 😊
Wow love the color
Beautiful job
Thanks for rescuing this beautiful lady. What a great find!
You kept apologizing for the prep time but it showed what is really like to paint a piece. It justifies the price when people see the real labor involved. A stunning piece and I agree with everything you did to it. 👏🏼
Thank you so very much!
No kidding! Prep will make or break the project. I’m really glad I watched so many videos to know how important prep is.
I totally agree with you- it’s good to see what it really takes to prep a piece before paint - so many furniture painters make the prep part seem so easy but I feel it’s the hardest part sometimes- especially when you need to do repairs- I appreciate this video so much for the reality of it.
Next time just make a mold of that trim! Love this piece! You got a new follow today from southern charm refinishings newchannel.
Thank you,I am 60 and my grandmother had one exactly like that and when she died alot went on,you did a beautiful job,
I found myself hollering at my phone “Please don’t paint it! The wood is beautiful!” But at the end I thought the final result was stunning. Good call on your part!
I actually agreed with you. Please don’t paint the beautiful wood. But I can see why the wood was problematic.
I loved original wood. I would have left it alone with rougher areas as the piece's Battlescars for survival. You do good work though.
@@annmarieknapp2480 i agree, paint is a bandaid; someone gonna have to rip it off, eventually- and they will be cursing you the whole time.
It looks amazing. The amount of prep work done inspired me. I’m now a new subscriber and glad I found your channel. I like the pace of your video. Beautiful finish.
Very stunning
There was a part of me that cried when you painted that gorgeous wood, but I'm glad you saved it none the less. You did it right, so it can be refinished in the future, and it would have been lost forever without you.
Love it. I think people don't realize how much work goes into prepping something. In anything you do the preparation is the key. Great Job.
This was one of those "holy crap, what is she doing to that beautiful antique" videos. I love when I'm wrong! It turned out beautiful.
I'm SO glad this showed up in my feed. I was given a buffet table VERY VERY similar to this. This is my first piece and it's truly a labor of love like you mentioned. But your video has helped me so much about what to do. I've done all the prep work but I've been dragging my feet about everything else. Now I have confidence to finish it! Thank you!
Oh yay! Glad my video helped you. ❤️
Wow ! That custom color is beautiful. Great job ! Thank you for the soft music. Lovely.
Such a beautiful peace of furniture I can’t believe someone just left it on the side of the road. Luckily for you that you where able to get it and give it a beautiful transformation.
Vintage Sideboard...free!!
Paint and Stain...$75
Sabrina spider smackin'... PRICELESS!!!
Great piece...thank you for sharing!
I usually don't like to see vintage pieces painted, but this was in rough shape and paint just disguised it all and made it lovely! Good job.
Facing a dilema ...picked up a well made dresser and matching chest ..wood in a rich cherry finish , can't find any manufactuer markings but drawers are dove tailed ...hardware is gorgeous ....do I refinish or paint ?

Thanks so much!!
That turned out so beautiful! What a tremendous amount of work! You earned every bit of that money!

Thank you for the kind words. ❤❤❤
Wow! Nice job...love the color. Loved the stenciling on the drawers.

Thank you for the kind words! I was happy to know it sold to a lady with a wedding venue so it will be in many wedding photos for years to come.
@@SabsRehabs That's perfect!
Oh my gosh!!! Absolutely gorgeous!!! What a “lucky” find! Beautiful work!!!
Thank you so much!

Glad you enjoyed it!
Gorgeous!!! Love what you did! Possibilities are endless with this piece… as with any piece, really!
In a million years I wouldn't have put a drop of paint on that cabinet, anywhere. Honey maple stain for me, or golden pecan, or something similar. But, that's me. If distressed blue is what floats your boat, then you nailed it. Good job on the video, it was fun to watch....and very nice work!
Ps, stenciling was a nice touch
No kidding! Just a few minutes in, when she said “before we paint this” my heart broke.
I don’t think there’s really much more she could do with it. It was in pretty bad shape
100%
Needed to be painted!
Flipping is different than restoring. Restoring requires a much different talent. I too expected to see the gorgeous wood restored and my heart dropped when she said "paint"!!

Like the idea of a stool. I always mess up my knees and lower back painting
I was loving that stool also. Love the height and the ability to roll around where you need to go. What a time saver.
Yes! I found that on Amazon. I love it.
Thanks for saving the good old pieces. Lovely
I'm usually not a fan of chalk paint or distressed furniture but this turned out beautifully! I would have this in my home and be proud to show it off. Great job!
Thank you!
without all that great prep work your finished project was so gorgeous.....great work.
You prep the way I was taught. Good for you.
You took someone's trash and turned it into someone's treasure, beautifully done! I'm so happy this didn't go to the landfill, it lives on in a home where it should be. 😍
I love to see people saving these gorgeous old pieces!! You don't find wood like that anymore for sure.
Absolutely stunning. Your choices were perfect. Thanks for sharing.
Instead of removing the trim below the left door, I would have made a mold of it to create a trim for the missing piece on the right. Beautiful furniture rehab!
Simply beautiful!!colors ,hardware,so graceful
I was almost crying when she painted it.
😢
🤣
So glad you rescued her before she got rained on!!! You did an INCREDIBLE job! Such patience you had with this piece. This proves how the prep work certainly paid off in the end....I would not change a thing about your choices!!! AWESOME WORK!!!
I don’t know if I would have the patience for that piece, but you nailed it, girl! That is absolutely beautiful!!
Thank you!
It turned out beautiful! The paint color is just right!
I like how you choose to paint the legs It’s a Beautiful piece!
Wow, amazing vision. You brought that piece to life, Color, rich!
Wow, thank you!
While you were painting, I was thinking I wasn't crazy about the color. But seeing it finished...WOW! I think all of your choices were the right ones.
I also often think, stop, stop, the wood is so beautiful. But the result is a beautiful and almost dramatic sideboard. Thank you for the video..
Thank you very much!
You did some nice things that other furniture artist don’t. I like the fact you waxed the bottom of the drawers & the inside of the frame. You also used regular “ole” Johnson’s Paste Wax!

I love the piece & it's beautiful curves! Personally, I would have kept the natural wood color & not paint it. Just my opinion...☺️
That turned out beautiful. The time you put in prep work shows in the finished product. Very nice.
Thank you very much!
I am glad you painted the legs. It pulled everything together to make the look cohesive. Hopefully the $600 profit covers your master fly swatter extermination fees! 🪰🕷
Haha. My skin is still crawling from that one. 🤣
Love the color and distressed look, so beautiful!
Loved it! You can't go wrong painting the legs or leaving them bare, its beautiful anyway! ❤️
Thank you!
Absolutely stunning!

Some lucky person got a beautiful & useful piece for a Very reasonable price. Nice work ma'am!

Superbly done.
Thanks so much for saving this beautiful piece from the landfill...both because of the piece AND for not allowing our landfills from being needlessly filled. You gave it the care and detailed attention it deserved, and you did it so beautifully. Thank-you again.
Glad you like it!
Loved what you did. At first I wasn't sure I'd like it painted, but you proved me wrong. It's gorgeous.
It’s beautiful, distressing it really showed off the wood details. Love the color.
Thank you ♥️
Older furniture is so well made compared to contemporary furniture! Solid.
Agree 100%
Everything you do with furniture is first class!
Thank you!
Outstanding. Love it. Paint legs. A lot of work, well done……..So impressed with you talent….
Wow, a relatively simple finish, but it turned out gorgeous! I picked up an old buffet off the side of the road and couldn't decide how to refinish it; now I do!
❤️
Clearly this is Just Another Fine Production of Sab’s REHAB!!!!!
Very well done....great vision....and creativity...congrats on your sale , you worked hard!
Great video. This piece of furniture turned out beautifully. I love the way your shop is set up. You have the gift of teaching, too.
Thank you!
Now that’s talent rite there. Beautiful piece. I live the distressed color you chose.
Thank you!
@@SabsRehabs I’m really trying to get better and refinishing furniture and I find a lot of helpful tips in your videos.
Great color..great all around...the price reflects your hard work..
I would never have had tge guts to paint thus old piec BUTi will now. I have a buffet this same size that us my new project! THANKS FOR YOUR WORK!
I love the color and the legs look just fine. Stunning piece!
This came out amazing! I love the painted legs.

You surprised me. It came out so much better than I thought it would. Nice job.
Thank you!
Amazing transformation. TY for sharing your information and techniques with us.
Beautiful and thank you for showing all the prep work!
I think you brought out her beauty again for a new generation! Appreciate how you prep and the final details were lovely! Good job on the profit margin as well.
My mom had one just like that. I wish I could find one like it, just beautiful!
Wow! Loved the goldleaf damask. Made it pop! Better than new!
Great job!! I was shocked at how beautiful it came out. The distress effect was amazing!
Thank you!
All your hard work definitely paid off! I love that you showed all the prep work! Beautiful 🤩 job Sab!
Thank you so much!!
Beautiful color. Amazing translation. Love the hardware too.
That’s so much thoughtful work you put into this piece. Bravo, It turned out great!
Thank you!
WOW!!!! This is absolutely beautiful. STUNNING!!!
A fellow dread head!!!!! Yay!!!! Love your commitment to cleaning well. ❤️
Thank you! I have only had my locks for about 4 months but I love them. Keeping them for life. ❤
I wasn't too sure about the color until I saw it on the buffet, It's amazing! And the leg's look awesome, glad you painted them!
Thanks so much!
You did a beautiful job. I would love to hear you describing what you are doing in real time.
Beautiful, like the painted legs. The prep work shows just how much goes into a revamped piece.
Wow! That is a beautiful piece of furniture!
Beautiful finish and perfect hardware. I wish you could have saved part of the finish on doors and maybe the legs. The center shield on the doors was beautiful wood.
Very nice work I'm not sure I would have paint it The wood is so beautiful
The wood was more damaged than what the camera picked up. It looked terrible in person.
Road finds are the best. Nice work.
