    I’ve watched every, every chalk paint, milk paint, whatever paint video posted on TH-cam and this is the most beautiful, very simple but different repaint I ever seen, including Pinterest. Great job.

    This piece exceeded my expectations. I’ve watched so many of these furniture redo videos, which I often enjoy, but this one was a step above... inspirational, and a true transformation. You are very talented!

    You may be new to TH-cam but you're obviously not "New" to the game. This piece is gorgeous and looks highly professional. Stunning!

    This is my favorite so far!!! I love that you always do 2-tone, gives a lot of character to the piece and you always showcase the wood grain!

    Wow. It doesn’t look rustic, it looks very upscale and sophisticated. Well done. I love it.

    Watching your videos makes me wanna take a shot at a bookshelf I was given by our neighbors who moved out. I have no idea where to begin on them so these videos always helps. I love how relaxing you are too.

    @Evan1060 3 ปีที่แล้ว +90

    Wow. I really thought the black would wash out the architectural touches and yet it really makes them pop in a trendy/classy way. You certainly have an artistic eye for these designs. Love it. Thanks for sharing!!

    This has to be one of the best videos I've watched about restoration, and I'm so glad I stumbled on to your channel by accident! Love the simplicity that gave this piece such an upscale rustic look, and a new life! Enjoyed your commentary, you give that "just right" amount of info!

    Holy cow!! How many times has a gawdy piece like that made into the landfill because it's just so stinking outdated? And then look what you did to it!! It's incredible!! You have an amazing eye!

    • @raquellambropoulos279
      @raquellambropoulos279 3 ปีที่แล้ว +8

      Outdated is EXTREMELY IN NOW. one of the reasons is because a dresser from the last 20 years is not solid wood and is in the landfill because the drawers broke. Mid century modern is what everyone is denanding especially vinetage and not copies of vinetage like most designers are doing. I would kill for this peice even before she did her magic

      @vickigarber838 3 ปีที่แล้ว +5

    @vtc5296 3 ปีที่แล้ว +5

    Thank you for keeping and loving the natural wood elements, its nice to not see chalk paint slapped on every surface. Not that I hate chalk paint but that’s 99% of “restored” furniture channels now. You and DIY WIFE have become my favorites at the moment.

  • @louanneross6410

    This is STUNNING. I know I'll be ending up with a lot of my parent's old vintage pieces one day, and I'm hoping I can transform at least a few of them into something half as beautiful as this.

    This is beautiful. I love these furniture pieces from the ‘80s and ‘90s. You have finished this in such a unique way. It really shows the details and I love the tone-on-tone look of the hardware. I’m really enjoying your videos.

  • @emmily4116

    @Sno_White23 3 ปีที่แล้ว +20

    Sometimes you just jive with the way a crafter works and girl, you're it for me. As someone who redoes furniture, especially wood pieces, watching you work was so relaxing and satisfying. This piece is gorgeous and I'm inspired. Also...I have never heard of the balm for the wood, so much better than wax.

  • @pattiereiter9265

  • @thecourtlyalchemist
    @thecourtlyalchemist 3 ปีที่แล้ว

    Really admire that you managed to make over a poor old monster into something so sleek and desirable. You've given this dresser gravitas! I love all your choices here, the black metal hardware on matte black, the contrast between pale washed wood and darkly painted drawers. Of all the very cool furniture artists who participated in the $100 Challenge, your aesthetic is definitely closest to mine. Better still, the skills and care you put into your work are second to none.

    • @TranscendFurnitureGallery
      @TranscendFurnitureGallery  3 ปีที่แล้ว

      Aww, thank you so much! I'm pretty eclectic overall but still somehow manage to retain a certain "style".. people in my area can easily recognize my work on buy/sell pages so I guess that's a good thing for sure! :-)

    Ok, I know that I have commented on several of your videos tonight but I just had to thank you for saying that if you add a little green to white wash it helps with the pink color you get from redwoods. I white washed these little end tables and they came out pink, which isn't a bad color but not what I was going for. You're so smart!
