Your understanding of the different types of wood & the fittings used is astonishing. you have a real empathy with these materials & a wonderful set of skills to deal with so many different problems that arise. This old bookcase started out looking 'pretty tired' to say the least & the legs were a great touch, then on top of that you decided to have a go at frosting the glass doors & what a fantastic result! I so admire your thoughtfulness, sensitivity & ability to bring pieces, that most people would deem junk, back to their former glory & quite often better than the original. Congratulations on this one, Don from South Aust.
From one health worker to another, you have an amazing gift for making pieces of furniture that people throw away into a thing of beauty that can be loved all over again. Thank you for never disappointing and demonstrating how lovely old pieces of furniture can be 😃
I love your respect for MCM style and restoration rather than repurpose with a quick paint job. You are a true master of your craft and I enjoy watching your videos while having breakfast! ❤
I absolutely love the whole thing, but the glass takes it to a whole new level. I have never seen that done before. You constantly amaze me. Thank you for sharing!
Another beautiful transformation. I've said it before and will say it again, you are so detailed and organized when transforming a piece. I enjoy your videos because I learn and I'm motivated. Any piece that you've done is done with pride and professionalism. Your voice is so calming too! (Hopefully, all those who are watching will subscribe!)
Jay once again. Taking something plain and transforming it into a different type of beautiful piece. Love your colors as well as the glass work. No words to express how great it looks❤
When you asked if we'd ever seen this before and then peeled off the finish on the legs, my jaw dropped! What was on there?? I really hadn't seen anything like this before. Well done. 😊
@@Flippingdrawers A vinyl wrap?!? How odd!! I wonder if it was there for "gives you a choice of color, on the legs, and if you keep it on?! It protects the legs from damp areas!!" >>said in a excited announcer voice
@@Flippingdrawers 😆🙃 Keep doing what you're doing, please. You're bringing me and so many others, great joy and relaxation 😊 I hope, you and those you love, are well.
What makes me love watching your videos is the amount of attention to every single detail in a piece. You can really sense the love you have for your craft and each piece of furniture you restore.
Your work restoring the beauty of the wood is exceptional. I love the raised shelves that put everything at a good height leaving room for art above and seating below. Kudos!
I think I have seen most of your videos and have liked everything you've done. This is no exception. I think my favorite part of this video was when you impressed yourself with how well the glass frosting turned out.
WOW!!! Dude, this one was AWESOME!! I LOVED it! I could see a piece like this in a our Tiny House Airbnb. You have been really inspiring to start trying to find older crap furniture (the way it is now) and giving me the tools and understanding of how to go about removing the old and giving me new, different (AND better) ideas on the final finishes. (Being a woodworking for SOOO many years, it's always been the same for me. Stain whatever kind of wood I decided (or had laying around) to use. Then spraying on 3 coats of satin lacquer. Now you are giving me an acquired taste for the nature look with REAL wood and a subtle, enhanced finished look. THANKS!!
It is a glorious piece, Jay! I really LOVE the way you restored the tone of the wood. I think it is perfect! I think it was too brown and you have given it a luscious reddish golden tone. It is a new amazing piece, which is the magic you have as part of your skill set!!! Jay, it is just stunning! Your videos have me on the edge of my seat because your individual style just makes a piece shine. I think that pairing up with the challenge person is a great idea. But, promise me that compromise will work for the betterment of the piece you two do together. So honestly “WOWED”, beautiful Jay!
Your artistry, carpentry skills, patience and persistence amaze me! You are a true artist, with the vision to bring beauty out of the mundane! This is my new favorite channel!❤
such an amazing transformation, sympathetic to the original style yet modern and elegant! i love how you allow the beauty of the wood to take central stage❤️
Hi…I always look forward to your videos! You are obviously very skilled and I always learn something new from each video….the cabinet looks very chic with new door design, addition of legs and reviving that gorgeous wood! Love.your vision for your pieces…such meticulous care taken at each and every step…thank you so much for sharing😊kim
Love how it turned out and the oil really bought the beauty of the wood out. I used to work in a woodworking shop and our biggest seller was Danish oil closely followed by liberon finishing oil. 🥰
It does not surprise me that you won the challenge. When I saw the end results of your piece. It would not have been fair. Thank you for another wonderful piece. Cheers!
You taught us some new tricks today! But, that screw! Honey, we need to screw this corner back together. Finds longest screw possible & he said, “That’ll do” 😂 You’re such a kind soul Jay. I always enjoy watching you work! As usual, sheer perfection 🥰
@@Flippingdrawers I noticed that. How bizarre 🥴 I bought a beautiful piece yesterday to use as a tv stand. It’s massive & heavy as hell, but it’s so beautiful, I had to have it. The previous owner painted it several years ago & I love it as it is. However, the bottom trim piece has a little damage on the side we see (of course) it actually looks like a piece of ceiling molding. Any way I could send you a picture of it? I don’t want to replace the wood trim. I just want to cover up the damage & try to find a paint that matches fairly well so it’s not so obvious. I think it’s the prettiest piece of furniture I’ve ever owned!
That's perfect 👍🏼 You make it so hard for us to watch other flipping channels because of your high level of perfection 💯 I literally never found someone with your caring for details level Keep it up 💪🏼 we love your videos so much ❣️
I love this cabinet. You have taken a library shelf and converted it into shelving unit which could be used for many purposes. Your work is exquisite and I just love to watch you start with something damaged and make it whole again. Thank you!
It must have been super to work on a good quality piece with little actual damage. I like the way you turned a boring piece of furniture into something pleasing and useful for home use. The legsxwere a brilliant idea.
I came here, in this comment, to thank you. I saw some of your techniques for wood repairs and decided to apply them. I had a problem with my bed where some of the base supports broke and I had to redo them, I did as I saw in some of your videos and now it's been 4 months with the supports, still in perfect condition. Greetings from Brazil!
You pay so much attention to detail and transform ugly ducklings into beautiful pieces of furniture. That was nice of your barber to give you that bookcase! Love the legs and glass frosting accent.
I love the design on the glass. I just about had a heart attack when you weren't being careful taking the glass out. 😳😳😳 I'm overly careful, so I saw that coming. Good thing it didn't break. What a beautiful piece that now has a new lease on life. I love the whole thing, including the legs. It's so cool when things like that work out. Very nicely done. 🤎
That wood just glowed when you finished with it! I love that you always keep the soul of the piece but just take up to the next level! That takes sensitivity :)
WOW what a transformation! The cabinet is simply gorgeous and the frosted glass and legs were such great additions. It really beautiful piece. You do such great work it is always a joy to watch your videos.
Very beautiful. You have quite spoiled me for any other woodworker. Your attention to detail eg. raising the wood with wet heat, and meticulous cleaning I haven't seen matched anywhere. I'm not surprised you won the Ugly Duckling competition and hope you enter more. I also hope there are financial rewards for your skill. All the best
I don't normally write comments but I am in awe of every piece I have watched you do! Not to mention the amazing tips we amateur refinishers so want. You make me want to refinish something. Thank you so much! 😍
Thanks
Thanks Paul🥰 that's much appreciated
Holy cow, that transformation is mind blowing. Gorgeous. Your vision, creativity, and skill make watching your videos addictive to me!
That’s very kind. Thanks ☺️
This is not a reply it is a comment. Beautiful piece . Only I don’t like the legs.
@@Flippingdrawers I could only smile proudly for this piece; and I find the legs- - the perfect touch..Wow!
Here’s another addict!
Jake, you saved another piece for history. I love your attention to detail. You are always busy. I can appreciate that. The work is beautiful.

Thank you so much!
The frosted glass was genius 👌! Now a half of an institutional library bookcase looks like a piece of elegant furniture!!
Thank you 😊
Gorgeous, as always! Just makes me smile that all that beauty was laying in wait and you uncovered it and shared it with all of us. Thanks! 😊
Excellent....I love the legs, and the frosted glass. Good decision ☺️
You did a great job giving a lovely bookcase a second life. It looks stellar.
What a difference you made there. Thanks.

Add a under light in the glass maybe
When you asked if we'd ever seen this before and then peeled off the finish on the legs, my jaw dropped! What was on there?? I really hadn't seen anything like this before. Well done. 😊
Hi, I believe its some sort of tinted vinyl wrap but why? No idea😂
@@Flippingdrawers
A vinyl wrap?!? How odd!!
I wonder if it was there for "gives you a choice of color, on the legs, and if you keep it on?! It protects the legs from damp areas!!" >>said in a excited announcer voice
@@cpearson7372 you’re probably right. The wood underneath was new so it worked😂
@@Flippingdrawers 😆🙃
Keep doing what you're doing, please. You're bringing me and so many others, great joy and relaxation 😊
I hope, you and those you love, are well.
@@cpearson7372 that’s very kind of you. Thanks 😊
Beautiful. Your channel is one of my favorites. I love the creators that do professional restoration the best.
Brilliant work. I love how you make subtle improvements to a piece without changing its essential character.

Woowwwwwwwww my jaw dropped YET AGAIN! It is definitely a wow… lost for words
Such a great restoration. Can we take some time to appreciate how great this piece of furniture was, is, will be? Cheers
🥰
What a glow up. Watching that oil bring out the grain was very satisfying.
I think I have seen most of your videos and have liked everything you've done. This is no exception. I think my favorite part of this video was when you impressed yourself with how well the glass frosting turned out.
Frosting the glass and using the tape to make a design is so creative! I love the pattern that you came up with!
Thank you 🥰 Much appreciated

Another stunning piece. You always come up with the most unique touches. Beautiful!
Libraries are my favorite places. With this bookshelf you can have a part of the library at home. It's fantastic.
I love your thoroughness, precision and exactitude! What a joy to see!
Glad you enjoyed it
Unwrapping the legs was fascinating!! This piece turned out incredibly well.
It's really interesting watching you while rescuing an old junk and transforming it in a work of art! Great!
The brass additions make it so elegant.
You sir are a Master Craftsman. Love this piece. Awesome job.
🥰🙌🏻
I love to see old furniture saved from the dump. You do a wonderful job, thanks!
Stunning. Of course 😊
Congratulations on the win as well! Not a surprise but I'm very happy that they recognized your efforts!
This piece has your special touches all over it. Brilliant!
Such a satisfying restoration! I am sorry I missed the live chat! Love watching you work so much!
Ha ha don’t worry 😉 thanks for watching
Another masterpiece from the greatest furniture maker ever.😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Wonderful attention to finishing detail as usual. The frosting if the glass is inspired!
Thank you! Cheers!
Не устаю писать,какой вы талантливый с золотыми руками реставратор.Работа просто супер.Это очень красиво,ну очень.❤❤❤❤
Amazing results as always. Frosting the glass was a brilliant idea. I've never seen legs with shrink wrapped plastic "stain" before!
2 Words: SUPER. COOL.
WELL DONE!👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
Just turned out beautifully, great job love the glass 😊
❤ the frosted glass pattern. Transforms the piece from ordinary to cool 😎 👌🏼

That would make a really beautiful bar table, with the glass side showing off the stem ware & your more decorative bottles.
Absolutely love how this turned out. Just beautiful!
Everything BUT the frosted glass for me personally! Very nice!
So you would have left it as it was?
@@Flippingdrawers ... The glass yes .. I would have left clear. As I said personally... If I were keeping it that's how I would like it.

I really like the natural wood restoration with the brass.
those legs look like they were original! fantastic work, as always. the frosting of the glass is the finishing touch, in my opinion!
Thanks 😊
I just said “wow” out loud 😀. Beautiful work and I love the frosted glass! Your videos ARE addictive ❤
Thank you 😊
Love the sound of the scraper! Also using it means no power tools and no chemicals. Gentler for the earth.

Thanks so much!
The way the grain raised from that gouge is amazing! Well done.
Absolutely beautiful. Your choice to frost the glass the way you did is the "frosting on the cake" -- ingenious.
Thanks so much! 😊
The change in the wood color with the wood oil is absolutely astounding. This is a gorgeous transformation.
I remember etching glass for a 4-H project over 60 years ago! Must say this project takes that concept to a stunning level!
Thanks and so simple☺️
Wow what a great outcome. Really like the legs and frosted glass w/modern design.
You really have a feel for what works👍
