Reviving Vintage | Restoring a Walnut Dresser to Its Former Glory!

- When I saw this dresser, I immediately recognized the knobs that matched an old vanity I repurposed into nightstands a few months ago. A lot of its beautiful walnut veneer was loose or missing altogether but I already knew the potential it held and couldn’t resist fixing it up and bringing it back to life.

Katie you just leveled up girl ! Impressive restoration..i love it turned out beautiful
Thank so much! I’m really excited to learn and keep adding skills to my tool box.
You are without a doubt the best teacher and I look forward to watching, learning and being inspired by your work!
Last summer I scored an alley find. A Biedermeier style walnut veneer dresser that had many of the same problems so it was reassuring to see that I managed well. It turned out beautifully with a hemp oil finish that enhanced the grain.
I so very much agree!!! She is the best teacher!!!
Can a old 100 plus cedar chest be restored,
You did such a great job it looks like a brand new dresser your soooooo talented bless those hands 😍🙏🏽
Nothing like a new Katie Scott video to get me motivated to get off my butt and into the workshop! 👏🏼👏🏼
This is a $2500 piece! Simply gorgeous!
I love this chest! It’s beautiful! AND…I LOVE RUB & BUFF, I don’t know how I lived without it!
Looks fantastic! Those products are a bit intimidating, but the veneer repairs look much simpler than I would have imagined. Once again, an amazing, informative video. I love watching your videos!!!
Gorgeous! I love that you let the natural grain shine through and went with a very natural finish. Anyone would be lucky to have this refurbished piece in their home.
Katie, been watching you for years and now I am convinced-you are a magician! It’s beautiful! TFS
I’m still in awe of how you find amazing pieces of furniture and your amazing skills. Once again another wonderful restoration. Love the kit you got, that’s going to be something that you’ll use often and I suspect will re order.
Beautiful wood grain! The combination of the original hardware and the woodgrain, I just love it. This is probably my favourite restoration.
The beautiful wood grain really pops. You did a wonderful job, Katie!
A very meticulous restoration of a lovely, gentle years piece of furniture.
The restoration kit is a smart score for your workshop. 🌟 thank you for sharing 🌟💓
That is so pretty. I am so glad you refinished it back to its original beauty.
19:16… Wow!! 💥💥💥
One word, gorgeous. Well done, Katie! Really interesting how it all came together. Thank you.
Katie, what beautiful work. You put your heart and soul into each re-do that I watch!
Holy moly. Absolutely gorgeous. One of the best makeovers I’ve ever seen!
Wow! I love how patient you are with each piece. That turned out beautiful.
Awesome job, Katie! I'm glad you didn't paint this one. The sheer amount of detail you put into this is mind blowing.
I just love your painstaking perseverance with bringing these beauties back to life!! Thank you for sharing!!
Transformed with love! Looks beautiful! So great watching your technique and processes, then to see the finished product….Magnificent!
Great job as always, Katie! Oh you are so patient to work with all those little chips and pieces of veneer like rebuilding a puzzle, my goodness!
That was some beautiful veneer. You did it justice for sure. All your instincts were correct.
Wowza! A handsome fella indeed! Another great job Katie!
The dresser has a new life! Your work is stellar! ❤
This turned out so beautiful. What a fabulous job on the veneer repair, and blending. Gorgeous piece and such a great video, thank you for sharing😊😊😊
So glad to see restoration vs trendy painting over beautiful wood! ❤❤
Painting is not trendy. It’s a fantastic option to extend the life of pieces that have passed their prime.
@salvagedbykscott I realize that. I'm commenting on how most folks just paint a piece vs. taking time to restore to original. It all comes down to personal decor preferences, of course. You do Excellent work!
So glad that you were able to bring this piece back to glory. Great job!
This is stunning Katie!! That walnut edge banding was perfect for the repairs and such a good fix - I am definitely going to look into keeping some in my workshop for these kinds of fixes! 😊❤
Returned to its former glory. Well Done!
This was a tricky piece, yet you brought it back to brand new. Impressive!
The finished piece has so much depth of character 😊 ❤
I have my parents’ old bedroom set purchased in 1950 and the man’s dresser has that coin holder in the top drawer. It’s a lovely period detail.
Outstanding! Love seeing that beautiful walnut brought back to life.😍
I agree this seems like a mid-40s piece and you've done it proud--absolutely gorgeous now!
Wow! ❤ You should have a running clock to see how many hours you spend to get this result. I love the clean deco lines of this one, it’s lovely. Well done!
It turned out beautifully. How nice the woodgrain shows off. Great job. I learn so much from your vlog
