Thrift to Treasure | Vanity into Nightstands Transformation! 

I used to be so weird about painting wood but honestly, you saved their lives, and what a lovely green!!

How much I love what you did here is unseemly. Brilliant fabulous amazing! You are a bloody legend!

Thank you for inspiring me to get back to redoing furniture. It is therapeutic and rewarding each time you finish a piece and someone else loves it enough to buy it.

So unique and perfectly retired. Thank you for sharing your creativity and teaching us. I really like the flawlessness of your projects inside and out. You can really see it in the close up shoes.

You do such a nice job on your pieces. Such a great eye for color and updating just enough to have them look fresh yet timeless and classic.

Your eye for upcycling and restyling is so amazing! The end results always turn out to be bizarrely awesome! I instantly subscribed.

Hi Katie well 11 months and quiet a few lockdowns later, my darling and very understanding husband made my Mum’s dressing table in to bedside tables. We are still in lockdown so the French polishing will have to wait. I sent photos to my children and sisters like me we are so so happy that we get to keep part of a piece of furniture that my Mum loved 🥰 🥰 🥰🥰

never thought about breaking down a vanity into night stands! Love it!

Wow... I've seen a lot of comments acknowledging this same thing, but you really pick the most perfect and stunning colors for your projects. They go so well with the style of the furniture. You have a vision for these things that is not common. I absolutely love everything I've seen of yours so far. I wish I could come up with ideas like that. New subscriber!

I really like the size of the bedside tables. I would never have thought to cut them apart. Everything is so much bigger nowadays, but the older furniture can be much smaller and a better size for me (I'm 5' tall). Currently I live in a 1964 house. Even the ceiling is lower than most homes. But the small size of the bedrooms is the real issue. I couldn't fit 2 normal size bedside tables on both sides of my queen bed, they wouldn't fit. I have only one bedside table, which is fine because I live alone. However I would like the look of having 2, one on each side of the bed. Your remake of the vanity into bedside tables would work perfect for me. 35+ years ago I had a vanity that looked very much like the one on this video. I used it for my sewing machine because it fit on the middle lowered shelf really well. The drawers held notions and sewing stuff. I gave it away because I wanted a new fangled sewing machine and cabinet. Funny thing is I've never really liked the cabinet or the newer sewing machine (for 35+ years!). New isn't always better. In the past I may have thought you shouldn't paint over wood grain, but really I see now that if you know what you're doing with the wood and fixing damage, painting is such a good way of keeping a quality piece alive and well for years to come. I really love your work on all the videos I've seen and particularly these bedside tables. They would be perfect for my bedroom. Thanks for sharing your salvaged furniture on RU-vid.

Great idea to separate that vanity and turn it into 2 night stands. I am always impressed how you style your pieces. I am a beginner and you are by far my favorite RU-vidr.

This is beautiful. I love that you spend the time to make sure the finish is perfect. Not everything has to have a chippy paint finish as others think. Gorgeous, looks even more art deco than the original pieces. Great paint colour choice. Love it.

This is my favorite piece you've done. The resale on this is great for "nightstands"

Love the night stands , the colour is great and so useful.

Results are more than cute. They are exquisite!

I would love to have something like this in my (dream) bedroom. Brava, Katie!!

I love that it Is on casters. Wow

Your vision for pieces that look like they belong in the dump continues to amaze me!

Repurposed items are wonderful. Thank you for your beautiful pieces that have been put back into use!

Wow. I was like oh no why is she doing that but it all looks amazing. You do an amazing job

I would love to have these in my bedroom. Beautiful work.

That was brilliant!!! I have so many ideas right now. You're an inspiration.

Love the color. Love the project. Love everything.🌹

would of loved to see the middle of the vanity used as a shelf...great eye

I wouldn't have thought to make nightstands but the narrow dimension will better fit in our ever shrinking bedroom sizes. Thanks for the idea much more useful than the vanity they all turned out beautiful!!!

Omg LOVE that color green ! 👍🏼 beautiful job

I almost died when i saw you taking that vanity apart😳,ive been looking for one,but,your design came out amazingly beautiful👏🏻👍🏻

This popped up on my feed so I had to watch it because I mean it’s Katie. I immediately noticed the beginning quality so I went and looked and this video is 2 years old 😂 Katie let me just say. Your video quality has gotten so much better! And your work is as beautiful as always

Amazing transformation! Lovely colour.

I'm obsessed with those nightstands!

I love the idea of taking an old vanity and making it into nightstands. This is one I would like to try!

It is amazing how you work on your pieces , you are realy inspirational

My favorite part of your video is your vision for what rescued treasure can turn into! :)

Watching the remodeling of furniture makes me want to do it. I am unable to do it myself but I enjoy watching you do it. Thank you for sharing your teahniques with us.

Love it - especially the hardware

The waterfall veneers are in amazing shape.

OH WOW... THEY CAME OUT SO BEAUTIFUL... GREAT JOB

Wow wow wow love this look♡♡ You truly have a great eye for beautiful things

Beautiful...love that color!!

I love just love your work!

Seriously have been bing watching all your videos!! Just recently upcycled a dresser myself!! Absolutely love your work!

These are gorgeous, almost have a metal/industrial vibe with the colour!

love your color palate. works so well with your furniture pcs.

Again...love the finished products and their new color!...God bless y’all abundantly!

Love this video. Color is scrumptious!!

Awesome!!!! I am going to try this. I have never done anything like this before!

Enjoyed you showing the products you use/chose and how you used them. Enjoyed seeing the prep work, especially the bondo

Super cool!!!! Love how these look!!!!! I specially how you added little decor on top of them!

Beautiful !! My Grandmother had that style of vintage furniture.....Amazing ..

What a beautiful job.Love the color

Yo!!! Katie!! Freakin awesome. Like, I said I find it so neat when you guys turn desks into night stands. Well done as always. Hoping all is well, Dirty Jersey out!!

And now I need to find a vanity to split!! Love it

Really love the hardware with the colour

What a lovely set you have created! Very stylish. Kudos to you!👍

Hi Katie! 😊 Great video!!! I love the color so I looked up The Chippy Barn and found that all the Beautiful Home Collection paint colors have been renamed. If anyone is looking for the paint used in this video Eucalyptus is now known as Juniper.

My parents had a bedroom set very much like that when they were 1st married in the 1940's. I remember it (a bit later😉) blond wood and the waterfall style. Beautiful transformation 🙌🏼👏🏻

Very nice outcome. Beautiful and nice. Something that I will pause and take a look carefully again. Very beautifully success makeover.

Kate, love your work and your videos. As a musician, I find the unusual music takes away from enjoying the process. Hope you don’t mind me saying 😌

Such a beautiful job 😍 obsessed with your work ❤️

I have just started my 2nd furniture painting project. Love watching as I am learning each time...loved the waterfall furn update!

Love your videos here in South Africa. Well done!

I have got to say that I stumbled across your channel and the items that you upcycle are so good love the blogs keep them coming.....would love to see multiple items being done

you are a great inspiration!love your projects

They look terrific! I had a friend that had a waterfall bedroom set. To my eye, the vanity just looked awkward. What was great in the 70's is getting a new look for the 2020's

Love that you took the vanity apart and made night stands! The color is beautiful!😊😊

Just Beautiful. Love the colour. It totally suited the style of furniture. I love the whole process as I often wondered how people converted a vanity into two separate nightstands. Keep doing what your doing. Its fun to watch.

So love this piece

Wow! What an amazing job!

Such s pretty green color and the hardware compliments it perfectly!

I love all your pieces, but I especially love what you did with the vanity into nightstands! I love those old vanities but they are way to short to be practical. Making them into nightstands was genius!

I love Art Deco and cringed when you first started, but you did the pieces justice! You kept the style but updated. Great job!

Wow lovely 🌟💚🦋🌈🥰xx I like the colour it turned out well xx 😘 XX

Beautiful, love the color . You done well 👍🏻

Love it!! You always do such an awesome job!!!

I’m redoing an old teachers desk. It’s solid wood, and made so well. Meant to last forever. Lots of pieces and made to hide the hardware. So it’s like a mystery taking it apart because I don’t really know how it’s all connected. You did awesome!!

Wow...so beautiful! So glad I found someone else who loves to flip furniture as much as I do. I will have to start a portfolio.

So much work to turn these into such beauties! I wouldn't have thought you had to use bondo on would pieces. The eucalyptus color is great!

I loved this set as it was when you bought it, It reminded me of my great Aunt who had a set just like that but a mirror with the vanity. It was hard at first to watch you spray paint it for I like the original look but to fix it up, but when you were done it looked BEAUTIFUL. Well done girl, well done.

Beautiful, love the color. Maybe you could demonstrate how to update wrought-iron furniture such as tables with painting techniques.

Favorite part was your choice of paint color-eucalyptus-- it was like a creamy dark celery . That and the drawer pulls enhanced the night stands. Thank you

Love the nightstands because they're perfect for a narrow space. The color is lovely! Would love to see a project with a mix of some paint and some wood such as drawer fronts.

Wow!! So much work but well worth it. Nicely done.

Love! Love! LOVE! your channel Beautiful vintage. Will be subscribing, keep the good work coming.

I love these, so cute! I just love your work - you have an amazing eye!

You do beautiful work! Thanks for the content.

You are so creative! Nice job..

I like all ur videos keep up the good work

This was absolutely gorgeous!! Love it!!

Art Deco is my favorite era of furniture, jewelry, etc., so, I was askance that night stands would break up the dresser. BUT! you amazed me with the final products...fantastic! I feel brave to go forth and look at new ways. Thank you Miss Katy. Peace

Stunning!

Could you have saved the piece in the middle? I was thinking it maybe could have been a child seat with steel black legs and a colourful bright cushion. Love the colour of the finished pieces. Gorgeous. Xx

Stunning 👀❤️

Could you consider doing a video on upcycling mirrors? I have some overly ornate victorian styles pieces & some modern metal frames mirrors, neither of which go with my mid-century modern - simple natural wood - decor.

I just learned something new, bondo... who knew ☺️

Looks awesome!

I love what you did! I especially love the old telephone on top! Reminds me of home when I was a kid.

WOW! Beautiful work!

Love the monkey and the rotary phone you styled them with.

Excelente trabajo!!!! 👍👏💯

They turned out beautiful! Love the color!!
