At the beginning I admit to yelling at you to break out your steam iron.. You must have heard me. My grandfather taught me that trick back in the early 1970's. That is one beautiful piece. Love it.
Gorgeous makeover! I stopped by your booth and loved it! I purchased JRV stencils and some DIY paint for projects. I'm a long time picker/upcycler so I put myself on the waitlist at Plaza Antiques. I will be shopping your booth more! Great videos, I always learn something new and get inspired by you.
Incredible work! Really enjoyed learning from you in this video. Just subscribed to your channel and can't wait to watch more of your videos - Thank you! :) Robert
I love it! The only thing I think I would have done differently is I'd have put the oil wax over the entire thing. Either that or found a way to put a glossy or slightly glossy stripe around the black at the top. I've stripped tables and dressers of veneer before - not an easy job, but you knocked it out of the park!
This video took me back to my childhood. My dad actually won a table very similar from a friend playing poker believe it or not. He brought the table home and it had alot of cup rings and damage to the top and even the legs but my dad let me help him remove some of the veneer and patch it up...sand and retain n refinish...I was maybe 8 or 9 but I treasure those times whe. My dad included me ...and let me be his helper
Wow, not a color combination I would be brave doing, but the end result is amazing. I love that you are willing to take risks with damaged furniture and then further a transformation with something unexpected that gives the piece a whole new vibe. Love the table! Have a great week.
Your persistence at plowing through removing the veneer really has paid off. I haven't tackled a piece with that much damage yet, but this video gives me the confidence that I, too, can do it!
