At risk of sounding like a broken record... it turned out lovely, as usual!!! And how nice of you to be donating it to charity! Lovely piece, lovely gesture! (and congratulations again on 100K!!! Well, deserved!)
Hi, I am impressed with your level of professionalism and care that you take and then donate to someone in need. It is so important that people in difficult circumstances have good furniture not always being given hand me down third or fourth rate furniture, making them feel even more marginalised. Plus you have such good when turning these pieces into something so practical AND beautiful. You are truly a generous and good hearted person. Thank you for sharing.
I love it too! I so wanted her to also paint in the circle in the center back with the dark blue, but no criticism. Because this is a beautiful piece and done exceptionally well 😍 and I know that would have been a very tough tricky spot to get right without getting it on the vintage backer board too. So I respect the choice not to
I like that you use a variety of different brand paints. I also like how you walk through the different techniques you use with the hardware. Thank you for posting these and again it's always nice to see someone donating for those in need.
So much fun to watch! I’ll say it again....I’m so grateful you don’t phone it in with that sing-song utuber voice (you all know what I mean). Just a genuine learning experience from Katie! 👍 Congrats on 100k subscribers ..... you deserve it. Great stuff.....GREAT STUFF! ♥️
I love your degree of care and attention to detail! In a fresh balanced way without being over the top. Very professional and classy while still fun. Happy to be a new subscriber!
OMG, the knife hinges. I’ve just gone through hours of hell trying to get the hinges onto to antique buffet I picked up on the side of the road. Some of thing hinges were attached but others were removed and just left in a drawer. Since they look handmade they’re not all identifcal and not really interchangeable so it was really difficult to figure out where they went and how they worked. I was so close to giving up, and just putting on new hinges but I slept on it and the next morning managed to work it out. I know appreciate how they are hidden, etc but I’ve learned to never take off hinges without carefully marking them etc for reinstalltation.
oh my I didn't read the can properly and I had no clue BM Advance had a 16 hour dry time, I did my second coat maybe after 6 hours, worked like a charm, no problems whatsoever . Looks awesome!
I used Benjamin's paint on the first dresser I painted for my use. I loved how it came out. That was before all the special furniture paint came out. Thank you for the update on its new qualities. Beautiful color.
Very interesting. So many helpful techniques. You turned a rather unusable piece into a functional work of art. Love that you kept the back and made it beautiful too. Well done. I love it. So kind of you to donate.
I have a similar piece but it’s an RCA Victor. My father had gutted out the interior and converted it into a bar. Now I have it and it’s in my kitchen storing linens! I placed a mental frame around the insignia to preserve its history. I just might change the colour to yours. It’s stunning! Thanks for sharing.
Yay! A painter’s tool instead of just a flathead screwdriver! A much safer tool for removing laminate! My Dad worked for Dumont back in the day! Thanks for preserving that bit of history!
I love the whole thing, but especially your attention to detail, e.g. the look of the screws inside (!) the door, and the fact that you decided to preserve the history of this piece on the back!!!
This piece came out great! I don't know if you've talked about how you pick out colors for your pieces somewhere, but I'd be interested in hearing about that. Another great job, Katie!
Looks amazing. I love old TV cabinet pieces and as a teenager I hauled one from the neighbor's curb for my first ever furniture project! The color looks similar to the sage on the donated bench, on camera.
Katie Scott, Texas adores you and your channel!!! Thank you for introducing us to Benjamin Moore Advanced. I LOVE trying different paints but you also push me to be brave and try new colors. That cabinet turned out so beautiful!!!
Love how it turned out. Love even more that you gave it to someone in need. You do great work and seem like a really nice person. Thanks for letting us look over your shoulder.
Talk about bringing awesome memories back ...we owned a zenith haha...and I love how you was spot on with the shade of green/olive that was extremely popular during the time that piece was made .,. Beautiful.,.came out So Pretty ...awesome job!😊👍❣️
So beautiful! I am repainting a hutch from my great grandfather a color like that here soon! It’s so wonderful that you donated this piece. Love what you do!☺️
Congratulations on 100k Katie!!! The short you posted of your son’s reaction is truly priceless! You should be extremely proud of this community you’ve built! ❤️
Beautiful! I wish all veneer that was peeling came off that easily. Love that you kept the back on and then painted it in blue to match the branding. Special little touches make things so much better!
Wow...nice work. I just saw a TV cabinet with that same backing down the road and thought I wonder what I could do with that now I wish I had picked it up.
This is great as always. Can you please makeover a dining table? Give us ideas to give a new look with the current trends rather than the yellow orange-y look?
Awesome Katie! I was wondering what you were going yo do with the backing, to finish it. Love the way you combined the history of the piece, and painted Beloit. Your pieces look so professional.
That BM Advance is not the easiest to work with. But it is DUR-A-BLE. I used it on kithcen cabinets for a quick Glow Up. 5 years of hard use later, it was still gorgeous!
