I was going to give the wash a go but I just didn't think I would get the look that would make me happy. Maybe I will try it another time! Thanks for watching!
@@ezequielmartinez3582 well actually to be fair the first part of the video was about him trying to find a way to lighten the cane colour, so I think that's opened the discussion about how this could be achieved. These kind of videos enable a community discussion about different techniques that people use and it is helpful to others to share their opinions which I think they did in a respectful way.
Hi! it's me again. Forgot to mention that your instruction pace was perfect. Just enough time and direction on each step to be helpful, without dragging it out too much. Love your videos.
Me gusta que seas tan creativo y trabajes con lo que tienes a mano, hasta los artículos de cocina te sirvieron para lograr tu objetivo. Felicitaciones por este proyecto, no deberías venderlas. Saludos desde Valdivia al sur de Chile 🇨🇱
Thank you for the great tutorial on the caning & reupholstering , your chairs came out great, I hope your g/f loved them ...lots of love went into this transformation....Take care...stay safe....
What a painstaking process! But you followed through to the very end, very thoroughly and neatly .. that’s what makes the furniture flip a success! You’re becoming very skilled in your videos! Very modern beautiful finish! Enjoyed the video
Thank you! It takes time, but I realized it isn't the hardest thing in the world, I recommend giving it a go. It was a fun process! Thanks for watching!
I have done canning before and my instructor said to use glue in the grooves then tap in the spline with a wood wedge then trim. Your chairs are beautiful.
@@ash78907 trimmed with a razor knife. Put glue in groove then tap in cane with a wood wedge. Also tap in spline with the wood wedge. I took a class so I bought all the stuff from the teacher.
What a lot of work! A job well done! I would have been tempted to spray it all! I appreciate your patience and love the chairs! THEY ARE GORGEOUS... BUT I would have chosen a contrasting material for the seats! Guess that's what makes the world go round!
@@nevisscot7697 Yes but men see things like that differently than women! Black material shows pet hair and stains more than colors/prints also. He still did a good job!!
The chairs look awesome and I actually do like the cushions, however, I probably would have taken the lazy way out and just painted or used a light stain on the cane backing. I am redoing my stained kitchen cupboard doors. 19 of them. It takes many coats of bleach and sanding in between, then a tea stain, but I love the weathered wood look it's creating.
The caning turned out really well! Good job! But I would choose a smooth cloth for upholstering dining chairs. Otherwise, crumbs will settle in there and it will soon look dirty and shabby.
Love how you took someone's reject, keeping it out of the landfill and repurposed it! Thanks for the cane tutorial. I think I would have tried a paint wash to save that aggravation!! Great job, they turned out wonderful!
Honestly, that was my next plan, but since I was keeping 2 chairs, I wanted the same look as those CB2 chairs. I don't think the wash would have made me happy lol Thanks for watching and glad you liked the tutorial! :)
I am coming back to this video to announce that there is currently a listing of chairs like these for &80 on market place and I’m dying to try and do what you did but I’m in a tiny apartment with a toddler 😭 the heartache 🥲
@@FurnitureFlippa I’d try that if we weren’t crammed in here (we skipped out on storage space while we wait for our house) 😆 I was nice and her referenced your video and they took down the listing 😇 lol next time! Thanks for sharing 🤩
Thanks for the motivation to redo my chairs ;would even be biting off a bigger project .Would have to redo my table because that's what really needs to be done it was damaged recently by water so it had taken off many years wax in one spot . You can see the yellow oak surrounded by deep golden oak with a slight red tinge. Yes it needs modernizing . left it all natural as I got it when Y2K was about to happen wanted to make sure I could burn it without killing myself from the varnishes and paints So it has only been oiled it's a natural oak it's almost criminal to paint it .
You can make a clamp out of rope and a stick or paint stirrer. Almost as tight as a band clamp. Put the rope around, twist the stick to tighten and wedge it on the frame to hold.
My sister and I reappostered her kitchen chairs years ago.....a boring tan material with Navy and White pots dots....they turned out nice. Ps....I was curious about why you didn't stain the cane black? Like the inspo chair? I like the natural Cain color personally......they turned out nice. 😊👍
Great job! I have the same chairs. They were given to me years ago. They've been sitting on my porch and need a serious make over. Thanks for the inspiration.
Great job! Actually re-doing the caning in this instance, was the only way to get a professional, polished finish. I would have personally preferred the color of the old caning, but there would have been no practical way to paint behind the old caning. Caning had to be removed. One tip with painting furniture, cabinets and trim. I always use art brushes - not contractor grade brushes from a hardware store. Art brushes have finer bristles and don't leave brush marks. Even the white acrylic bristle brushes from Hobby Lobby are generally much better quality bristles than the most expensive contractor grades. I have actually seen Lowes offering the white bristles, but you have to know what you're looking at.
Omg I wanted a rattan dinning chair but was not willing to pay 400-500 for a single chair. So on fb market place i found 4 chair similar to the ones from carte&barrel for 50 $$ And i also found you video, which is exactly wht i was looking for. On to the project now.
