WOW! Great transformation! I LOVE the A - frame legs and the rattan inserts, but not crazy about the green/gray paint. It would be hard to incorporate that color in most rooms. I still like matchy match even though that’s an old fashioned way of decorating. I bet this sells super fast.
You always produce a beautiful finish with your spray gun, and Hazel is such a pretty country colour. Congratulations on another beautiful and unique piece. 👏🏼
A very modern boho look for this piece! I was today years old when I learned you could buy plastic webbing. Very smart to use that for the inserts. So much better than before!
I love Kreg jig. I have the older pocket hole jig but now have this one on my Christmas list. Such a beautiful makeover. You have a gift taking these 80s pieces and giving them new life 🥰 thanks for sharing Kara ❤
I cannot imagine what you had originally in your mind to do with this dresser, but you finally decided made it look UNRECOGNIZABLE! AWESOME! FRESH! UPDATED!! Maybe one of your most BEAUTIFUL transformations! The legs are amazing! They give the piece a unique and interesting character! The cane was an excellent choice to get rid of those awful gold mirrors! Thanks so much for sharing
Great color! The cane was an interesting change and it looks great. The legs are a big no for me. I don't like that they are on the outside of the dresser. Looks kind of clunky. Thanks for sharing all your hard work.
I love the way that turned out. Another beautiful piece! I have a question, how do you handle painting during the winter? I have 4 pieces I am trying to get done for our bedroom. But at night it drops into the 30’s. I think I picked a bad time to start painting furniture.
Great call ~ would have used the real cane ~ soak it, stain it ~ you went to so much effort why not push it UP by using natural material ~ I sure enjoy your videos ~ you two are making a positive difference in furniture make overs ~ thank you ~ oh, am purchasing the Kreg Jig ~ thank you for all your tips!
Very creative update. I feel the outcome still has a modern flare with that A Frame. I believe that style is from the 90's. The 80's still had a chunkier cottage silouhette.
You did really well with that design, I just loved the end finish. You are an incredible pair, so glad that you are hitting your goals. Loving Blessings to you both, #LemonsToLemonadeFurniture
Now THIS is a transformation. WOW! I'd buy it... and I'm fussy. The A-frame legs were a perfect decision. Then the cane drawer front insert with that paint choice. PERFECT!
I really like this. Original and interesting. Best of all, it wasn't mid century or an antique to start out with. You may have found a profitable niche. PS. Kudos for home schooling.
I like it. And I think the legs are pretty and in the right style for the piece, but I feel that they are a little too large. I don't think they should be wider(deeper) than the depth of the base of the dresser.
Hi Kara. This piece came out just beautiful. I have a question about the plastic caning. The link takes me to actual rattan material caning. Can you clarify what you used, please? Also, my hubby is starting projects in his retirement and just got a KREG Concealed Hinge Jig. I might just surprise him with the Pocket Hole Jig for Christmas. TY !!!
try this one? although the description says soak it...I see that now! Lol BUT I promise you.. what showed up at my door,,,,its plastic!! ha! www.amazon.com/dp/B0BGN6KNBC?psc=1&ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_product_details
Great job. Don't know what your plan was for "modern " so I don't know how this compares. This version is " Cottage Modern ". The legs are really what "lifts" it too a new level, design-wise". I am sure you will have no problem selling it. P.S. I see good shop safety habits, closed toe shoes. Or maybe it's bc the weather has turned a little colder?
