    The difference between a DIY who takes her job serious is showing at the end result ❤ no cutting corners is the way to go. 😮❤❤

    Unlike most channels that feature furniture redos... you transform really rough pieces. Not afraid of a little elbow grease are you?
    Truly amazing flips. In short...you rock woman!

    I am very impressed with the lengths you go to so that your pieces look as nice as they do when your finished . I used to do a lot of the same things you do. Now I just do them for myself . Keep up the good work. Your family is so wonderful❤ 12:08

    Beautiful pieces, but when you have paint left after stripping, do another coat of stripper, then finish with mineral spirits. It's much easier.

    Hi,my name is Tonya and may I say you are the stripper queen, I love that you save all the wood you can. I love that wood and painted look, and how you take old piece that are destined for the dump and turn them into something beautiful and useful .Thank you for sharing your technique looking forward to see what you do next.

    I like how #3, #5, and #7 turned out. However, when it came to #8, the almost antique (a little over a decade) radio cabinet, it should've been preserved. Those are hard to find in that good a condition! It would've made a great speaker case for a restored period house.

    Hey, I saw a price of furniture once that had a dark color, but, when the light ir sun hit it there was a deep red reflecting back. It was cool. That's probably a little too dark for today though.

    • @UniqueUpcycles
      @UniqueUpcycles ปีที่แล้ว

      Oh yes I had a few pieces like that. Definitely something that was common in the early 2000s. I actually still love that look when it’s mixed in with other lighter pieces.

    I don't know how you sprayed water on a piece and did not swell the wood. I would have to see this piece in person to believe it really looked like the photos. I did notice books were placed where the wood warped

    • @UniqueUpcycles
      @UniqueUpcycles ปีที่แล้ว

      The wood didn’t warp from the water. That piece had been stored outside in the elements for 20+ years before I got it. There was no way anything I did to it was going to damage it any worse than it already was.

    You've done amazing transformations this year. Number 1 is my favorite because I love they uniqueness of the piece and your color choice was perfect. Number 3 was shocking! All that beautiful wood grain under chalkboard paint. I've enjoyed all your videos and can't wait to see what you do next year.

    Beautiful work! I love your style and choice of colors. Wondering if you sand between coats? I’m still learning and I never see you sand. Is it the paint you use?

    • @UniqueUpcycles
      @UniqueUpcycles 2 ปีที่แล้ว

      Thanks Lisa! I go by touch on the sanding between coats. If it feels smooth then I skip it. If I feel any texture I use a 240 sanding sponge between them. I hardly ever sand between coats with Mélange paint. It dries super smooth.

    • @UniqueUpcycles

      I tend to use folk and indie music. I like that it has an alternative soft rock vibe to it.

    #3 I LOVE THESE DRAWERS! I have always wanted a finctional chest for my lingerie and delicates and think that this would be prrfect! I loke what you did with it but, for me, a soft creamy white would be my choice. Well done!!

    Sad to see the veneer destroyed in its removal on piece #9. If it was removed more carefully I am sure a restorer would be glad to have it. Have seen many videos with veneers repaired on beautiful pieces.

    • @UniqueUpcycles

      Have you ever removed veneer? It doesn’t tend to come off in full pieces but thanks for watching!

    I want to see the time marks on the beginning view of unpleasant furniture piece, and then the time mark to see the final result. Then if I am interested I will spend the time to watch how it is done. No time to just watch everything. Sigh.

  • @lapismosi8065
    @lapismosi8065 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    You are great with repairs but your finished pieces are a bit too sterile. Maybe add some shading. Also your music is really horrible. I had to watch with no volume. Maybe something without vocals.
