What I admire this channel for is 100% honest work, 0% influencer content. They way you solve problems is amazing.
Agreed...the attention to detail esp. on small repairs is superb. A lot of this is hard earned knowledge with a splash of thinking 'outside the box.' She is a craftsman.

Thankyou!❤️
Agreed! She conquers every challenge. A true master. 😎
This looks SO MUCH better! I am glad you chose the flush plugs.
What a beautiful set! I can see why your customer wanted it refurbished. You did an amazing job!
Thank you so much!
Thrilled to hear that the new shop is on the way! So happy for you! Thanks for sharing Trena. 🎶
Thanks so much
It's hard to put into words your craftsmanship from week to week Trena is just the best it's a joy watching you work and seeing the spin on How you want to do things to look ,How clever you are ,
Thank you so much
Your Mom is very talented too. Beautiful pieces.
Thank you so much!
Thanks for another great video. So nice to see this Scandi set returned to glory. And I can’t wait to get a peek of your new shop. I first subscribed because I lusted after your old shop. I forced my husband to watch your old opening sequence, saying “This woman is living my dream!” Truth is, I’m disabled so it is a pipe dream, but I played in that shop vicariously! So I’m expecting big things for the new one - no pressure!
Awe. Thats so awesome! Glad to have you jn The new space! 😉
Love the modern style and the color of the finish beautifully shows off the lovely soft grain of the teak. You do such quality work!
Thank you very much!
Beautiful finish to the wood and very tasteful upholstery ... Great job, as always 💚
Thank you very much!
¡Trena! ¡Trena! ¡Trena!🥳😊 Te has dejado extrañar, y apareces con un sorprendente trabajo. Creo que las imágenes dicen más que las palabras, toda la restauración se hizo y quedó donde debería hacerse. Te felicito por tus conocimientos sobre modelos de muebles y sus trascendencias, es muy importante el conocimiento para poder lograr una buena restauración y no cometer el error como se ve en aquellas sillas. Mis felicitaciones a tu señora madre por el hermoso trabajo de tapicería, ahora sé de dónde sacaste el don de combinar colores y texturas, mis respetos y saludos para ella. Bendiciones en tu nuevo proyecto de construir un nuevo taller. Éxitos, saludos y esperando por un nuevo video sobre tus proyectos.
Thankyou so much for your kind words ❤️
I BET THAT THESE PIECES THAT COME IN TO YOUR SHOP BREATHE A SIGH OF RELIEF WHEN THEY SEE YOU, TRENA...KNOWING WHAT IS IN STORE FOR THEM. THEY WILL ONCE AGAIN BE BEAUTIFUL BY BEING TASTEFULLY RESTORED AND READY FOR ANOTHER BUNCH OF YEARS AND THEN SOME. CANNOT BELIEVE YOU ARE MOVING AGAIN, AND THEN AGAIN. WOW. CHEERS!
Thankyou! I know moving stressful lol
No need to shout! This is a friendly channel. Abuse is not welcome.
@@peterwest7855 I HAVE VERY POOR EYESIGHT, YOU FOOL. AND MIND YOUR OWN BUSINESS!!
Not usually a fan of changing things, but I winced when I saw that green velour. When you said it was being replaced with a "new choice," I cheered. But then, I hate mid-century modern, so there is that.
The new upholstery, on the other hand, looks a lot classier.
It looks like a new set with character. Great job!
Great work. Loved the new upholstery. Also loved the Satie music in the background.
Glad you enjoyed it
You are right, this set is beautiful!! Another awesome restoration !!
Thanks again!
It never occurred to me that the screws were not original to the chairs. You are the professional, and I am the observer. Your solution to the screws is wise. I have no doubt when all is said and done, this project will be as lovely as any you have done in the past.
Thankyou
Another Great restoration. Good job Mom on the covering!
I worked for a company here in the UK that produced Teak furniture, this actual range was some 40 years old and was selling so well. Sadly the company has now closed, but you still see secondhand pieces for sale and fair to say Teak is such a great look. Top job bringing the table and chairs back to life.
Thankyou!
thank you very much for letting us watch your beautiful work. I keep fingers crossed for your new workshop. All the best
nice work Trina
Trena
I remember the Scandinavian Design teak furniture back in the 70’s - 80’s loved going into store
Great job restoring
That turned out wonderfully. Your plugs are awesome. They blend in so well. Your mother’s upholstery is beautiful.
Thank you so much!
Thank you for the Satie. My sound track for wood working. Zen and the art of sanding.
I have a Satie channel on Pandora and on youtube. Sometimes, you just need some melancholy music, even when it's not raining.
I wish I could be your intern. What an honor it would be to learn from two generations of artisans/craftsmen. I love the work you do. Also, the new fabric choice is perfect.
So nice of you
The chairs are very beautiful, they have a modern designer👍
I'm so glad you removed those metal buttons, they didn't look right at all. Teak modern was the thing back when I was young in England in the 60s and I still think it's beautiful. 🇨🇦. As ever, a very satisfying renovation by both you and your Mom. Looking forward to the new shop too. 🤗💕
Thanks again!
I love this style too. As a child, I could watch "the Jetsons". It's funny, because these fine legs and the elypse-like seats reminds me of the furniture of this Comic. I loved it.
Now that Grey, absolutely goes with that teak.
Love this style of MCM furniture and love Eric Satie music. What a beautiful way to accompany my Sunday brunch salad. Relaxing and inspiring.
Thank you Trenna ✨️ ❤
Our pleasure!
This is gorgeous! You are very clever with your invisible fix ups especially the flush plugs, it makes the chairs more streamlined. Awesome!
Thank you! 😊
That’s a gorgeous table and you’ve restored it beautifully. Your mums upholstery is excellent too. Xx
Thanks so much! 😊
A lot of detailed work for Trena and Mom, but what a result! The clean lines and the colour of the teak now revealed make the whole set into furniture to be proud of. Outstanding work!
Thankyou!
Started out with a beautiful dining set but now’s it’s stunning!. And that teak… 😋 yum! I know all those plugs were extra work for you but it really did make a huge difference! I’m sure your customer will see your video and really appreciate the above & beyond effort. I would. 😊 Good luck with the move!
You all are so talented and the finished pieces are so beautiful!
👍 good work
You are professional beyond professional. No detail is too small for your customers or for the furniture. I love watching the way you work and the way you explain what you were doing. Thank you for explaining why you use 180 grit in some situations and 200grot in others. This is something I never quite understood. The way the underneath parts of the furniture are just as important to you as the top is just wonderful. So many amateur professionals, if there is such a thing , do not spend the time on the bottom just on the overall finish that you see. To me this is very irritating
Thank you for your professionalism and the wonderful way you finish furniture. Your customers are very lucky to have you.
.
Thankyou!
You took the unexpected “additional” work to the chairs in stride and made them much stronger for generations to come! Your mom’s work is top notch as well! Bravo to the team 👏🏽👏🏽
Yes! Thank you!
Love how this set turned out. Kudos once again! Love this channel.
Thanks so much!
Absolutely gorgeous set I love the new upholstery you did an awesome job thanks for sharing stay safe and God Bless you and your family
Thankyou!
BEAUTIFUL as always Trena! Your mom’s Upolstery is spot on. And your refinishing is stunning. Love the flush plugs! Totally awesome dining table and look forward to the buffet video!
Thank you so much!
You did a wonderful restoration! I LOVE that you didnt put those awful mushroom plugs back. The sleek, smooth finish is perfect!❤❤
Thanks so much!
Good job!
Amazing work and results. I watch several restoration channels and compare technique and result. You are the standard I use for the comparisons and none of the others are a match to you. You are the best. Hands down.
Thank you very much!
Wunderschön🥰 Die ganze Familie...Künstler!
... the moment I saw those mushroom plugs, I wondered if they were original. They, absolutely, wrecked the clean lines often associated with MCM design.
Glad you fixed that issue. The flush plugs really just disappeared, allowing the form to be appreciated.
As usual, great job! And your mom did a wonderful job on the upholstery. ❤
Thankyou!
beautiful job.
I grew up with a table very similar to this one - fond memories.
Yes, u really do pour your heart into your projects ❤❤
Perfection! Wow so beautiful and updated. ❤❤❤
I love to watch you wirk on furniture! You do such an amazing job! I wish i could get my mother's hutch to you, as it needs to be refinished. Maybe one day!❤
Nice job (as usual) and a special "nice job" to Mom!
That is an amazing set. Love it . Wish I had one . So well done
It really is!
You were certainly right about how that veneer was going to pop with the satin lacquer. What a stunning result. And those pale plugs into the dark teak seemed impossible.. but you matched the plugs to the background beautifully. What a tremendously successful project.
Thankyou!
Magnificent work, as usual. The table in particular looked wonderful. Thank you for posting the video. Good luck with the new shop.
Thank you very much!
Beautiful!! Love the color! Your Mom did a great Job on the chairs!
I think so too!
I really like this furniture. You did a great job .
So great. Love your choices to return that beautiful sleek profile. ❤❤❤❤
Thank you! 🤗
The manicure fingernails really set off the repair and refinish. 😁👍
lol they are looking really bad
Lovely. I always look forward to your videos. You never disappoint.
Thank you very much!
Looks awesome... Magician level work! Oh... moving to a new shop!?! Oh yes, please keep the updates coming! I like to see how others organize their space.
You got it!
Really nice work. Great attention to detail. This table and chairs will last a good long time.
Yes it will
This is stunning, such an amazing restoration!!!! Thanks for sharing
Thank you very much!
Whack, whack - that hammer in your hand is ominous. HA. You are the best.
Lovely modern furniture saved, looks great.
Amazing job, I was very impressed with the way you blended in those plugs, great finish and beautiful upholstery!
Thank you! Cheers!
The flush plugs look so much better than the ones that were in it! Another great restoration job! Can’t wait to see the new shop, hope your dad comes to visit.
Of course. He will be there often
Another master-class in furniture restoration. Bravo, Tren! Thanks from Amsterdam
Thank you very much!
The velour and mushroom plugs looked 1980s to my eye. Beautiful work on this set with your and your mom’s work!
Yes! Thank you!
Lovely new look. The fabric is stylish, in keeping with the MCM look. Good luck on the shop move. Really looking forward to seeing the new spot and following your career journey
Thank you! 😊
Glad your getting things inorder. Be cool to see your new shop. Love the teak table.

Absolutely stunningly beautiful, both your work and your mom's, so very talented, both of you, each in your own right. So peaceful with your talking and the music. Thank you for such an enjoyable time.

Excellent choice to flush plug the chairs! Beautiful!
Thank you!
Wow, Erik Satie’s Gymnopédie #1. What a way to calm the soul. This is a magnificent job! Wow! I wish I lived in Canada.
Trena, great to hear about the progress on the new shop. The teak dining set is beautiful and looks better with the flush plugs and transparent finish.
Thanks so much! 😊
Excited to see the new shop! My mom would arm wrestle you for that dining set. She always likes mid century modern furniture.
lol well she would have to arm wrestle my client. Lol
You really must Love your work Because you do it so well Set it's beautiful
Yes I do!
You go girl !!!!!!!
Beautiful work on this set Trina. Well done. Teak is such a dantastic wood. One of my favorites.
Good luck with your move!
Thanks a bunch!
Lovely table and chairs, amazing refurb, look's awesome..
Nice work mom, really great.
✌️❤️😁
Thank you! Cheers!
You are amazing. That set is beautiful as is all the work you do.
Thank you so much!
Lovely - and close to my heart. I redid my mom's teak table. It's not as great as yours but I am happy with it. Also - using the information in last week's chair refresh, I did it to three chairs I purchased second hand 35 years ago. They look amazing. Two are in my living room and the third is in my bedroom. Thank you so much for the educations.
Wonderful!
Another great result , well done 👏👏👍
Really enjoyed, as always, your great work. The chairs and table look astonishing
Thank you very much!
It must be hard to give back furniture that is your style! Beautiful work with removing the plugs and making them flush - so sleek and stylish!
Yes! Thank you!
Wow! Great work. Looking forward to seeing you in your new digs.
Great project. Thanks for sharing. Your mom does very nice upholstery work. Cheers 🥃
Thank you! Cheers!
Nice job Trena and Mom! Beautiful results!
Thank you so much!
Very nice finishing and repair.
That is gorgeous! Nice finish!
Flush plugs definitely an excellent choice, the number and size of the dowels were surprising to me, I would think there would be no need for screws. Another beautiful finished product, it really looks clean and mom did an excellent job of upholstery on the seats and backs.
Thankyou!
I love mid-century teak!
Congrats on your new shop and looking forward to seeing the new shop.
Thanks 👍
Beautifully turned out, you are a professional!! Good luck setting up the new studio! Kind regards Niek.
Thank you very much!
Great job !!!!!!!! Good luck with the new shop and show us the progress on the new shop
That's the plan!😉
I'm not a huge fan of MCM style furniture, but this is a really beautiful set. Excellent choice using the flush plugs to clean up the profile on the chairs. It makes a huge difference. Well Done.
Thank you very much!
Beautiful! Job well done again! This is a lovely set
Thank you! Cheers!
Gorgeous ❤❤❤
Trena: absolutely beautiful! Can’t wait to see the buffet/ credenza restored. I do like the selection of fabric for the chair. It really updates the set.
I wondered about your new workroom you mentioned awhile ago. Good to know you’re moving along with it. Carol from California
Thank you so much!
