And there she sits in all her beauty. My soul was happy when you said you were going to restore it, and it's glorious. Green paint seems to be one of the hardest to completely remove. I'm currently restoring a 1928 dresser and vanity table. Underneath 5 different color latex (2 different greens included) and heavy coats of oil and shellac, I unearthed beautiful quarter sawn white oak in almost pristine condition. I appreciate greatly your labor of restoration. I'll take old over new every day of the week. Fantastic work! 🎉 11:06
Looks spectacular! I know at one time it was so popular to paint over wood, but now it’s so great to see things getting restored to their natural beauty!😊😊
@@Randyshufflesfurniture I have a technical question for you. How many coats of varnish do you usually lay down? And I am not speaking of the spray-on type but of the brush-on version. Thank you! 🤗🙏🏼
As a general rule I usually do 3 coats of polyurethane. You can get away with 2 on areas that don’t get as much use, but definitely 3 on the tops and drawers. Hope this helps. Thanks. My go to poly is Behr water-based in a Satin finish.
WOW!!! Just LOVELY!!!! I especially APPRECIATE how you save the Hardware. Many will just buy New Hardware that isn't nearly as pretty. Oh, Merry Christmas to you and yours!!!!
And look at THAT! She's got legs ... (sorry, old ZZ Top fan here) 😄 That was a LOT of work, but so worth it. After all that, are you keeping her for yourself? I sure would! Beautiful restoration. Thank you for this one!
Hahaha. I like ZZ Top as well. I don't really have the space for it, but I'm sure it will go to a home where it will be used and loved for many years. Thanks!
What a gorgeous table! While I d encourage people to use their imaginations and express themselves with color and art on painted furniture, I NEVER suggest painting something of antique integrity and value like this table. An ideal painted furniture project would be on something obtained from Goodwill or some other thrift store, that has no real value, but the life of which can be extended with a little whimsy. Pieces of that old off-white French Provincial furniture offer a great place to start. Time isn't generally kind to the original finish on those pieces, and they often make it to the thrift store looking sad and bedraggled, having yellowed where they were exposed to light, but having lighter patches where the light never reached. There's plenty of detail to highlight, flat surfaces that beg to be decoupaged, and a whole world of color and faux finishing open to them. But please, people, do not paint good wood like oak. By all means save it with a good rebuild and refinishing job, but save the creative art projects for something that nobody else wants. You'll be not only keeping the piece you do pant out of the landfill,b ut will be saving a truly good piece from the ravages of chalk paint.
Don't be judgmental. Furniture can be very expensive and sometimes we have to use what its available and affordable. You might not like painted wood but for someone without training, tools or not much space paint may be the only option. Maybe previous owners made it look ugly just to give you something to sneer at.
TELEPHONE table!! Back in the day, this would be located in the front hall. Phone book went on shelf. THis is when ther was only one phone in the house. No spiral cord. No wall phones. No PLASTIC phones. 40's to 50's
However decided to paint that beautiful piece of wood furniture made of solid oak no less and that horrible green colour in my opinion should be arrested for trying to destroy a beautiful piece of furniture people back in the day had no idea in artefacts some people these days will probably think that horrible green was very fashionable I'm glad you decided to restore it to its former glory instead of painting it another horrible colour beautiful workmanship
Единственное, что мне не понравилось, так это новая фурнитура. Старая непарная ручка была как раз подходящей формы. Новые - слишком вычурные и им надо было оставить хоть немного благородной патины, не очищая до такого слишком нового вида.
Beautiful restoration. The tapered legs are unique and beautiful.
I love how you dig into pieces that are such a challenge. Beautiful outcome, I love it!
Glad you like it!
It turned out so very beautiful!

I completely agree. Sounds like a fun project you are doing and a lot of work. Sounds like some some beautiful pieces. Thanks!
Gosh ! Such a hugely difficult "restoration" ..must 've taken all of half an hour.
Looks spectacular! I know at one time it was so popular to paint over wood, but now it’s so great to see things getting restored to their natural beauty!😊😊
Thank you so much!
That 1970s “antiquing” treatment…argh. Nice rescue!
Yes! Thank you!
I would never have imagined that table was old either with it being painted. But you turned that tiger oak table into a gorgeous piece.
Thank you. It was a lot of work, but worth it.
That is quarter sawn white oak.
Beautiful restoration of the old table 🎉🎉🎉
Thank you very much!
That was a lot of sanding but worth it with that finish! Nicely done!
Thank you so much!
Nice save!
Thank you!
Beautiful...excellent work...thank you for sharing the process..."reeding" is usually the term for the way the legs are styled.
Oh thank you!
It looks a thousand times better than the hideous poo green. This piece deserved to be at its best. You took it there.
Thanks so much.
Beautiful restoration! I can't imagine what kind of mindset one would have to paint that beautiful wood!
Thank you very much!
Beautiful job. Love tiger oak!
Thank you very much!
Lovely job, like the wood, improvement on the paint job.
Thank you very much!
Beautiful job.
Thank you for the presentation.
Thank you! Cheers!
Such a great restoration as always 👏👏
Thank you very much!
Beautiful! I like the darker stain as tiger oak can be so orange looking. Really lovely job!!
Thank you! Cheers!
What beautiful restoration,
Thank You so much!
That wood grain is stunning! I'm glad you took a chance on it despite the ultra challenging legs.
Thanks. It was well worth the time.

Thanks for the comments.
😍😍😍
THANKS!
You dud a beautiful job and it looks fantastic. One concern - no drop cloth, stripper chemicals etc can't good for your plants and yard
Sorry, make that did
Good catch. That is why I try not to use stripper if I can get away with other methods of removing paint. Thanks for watching!
Супер👍
Thank you!
Stunning. Paint is for junk woods like strand board and plywood. And lazy people.
Thank You!
Thank You!

Nice job I think it would have been equally nice unstained
Thank You!

The new hardware was the same size, so easily changed if the new owner chooses. Thanks for the comments and for watching.
Why did you stain? I would have just used bee wax with such beautiful wood
I personally wanted it to be a little darker than the natural wood. Thanks!
Oak furniture, dark walnut stain…why?🤔
Because I wanted a darker finish.
Beautiful!
Thank you! Cheers!
