@@donnabelitz3105 You are entirely right! I agree that damaged, stained wood would be OK to paint. I've seen some remarkable rescues of old pieces that blended painted bits with natural wood bits, paint to cover some very old water damage, that I quite liked.

It kills me when people ruin a piece by hiding the wood, rather than taking the little extra time it would take to bring out the grain and make it truly beautiful.
I always feel sad to see a nice piece of solid wood painted. Wood is so beautiful on it's own. I would only paint real wood if there was no other alternative to restore it. The original wood cabinet, without paint, was worth more as an antique, adding paint decreases the value.
OOO I do love this make over! No unessential changes to the shape/texture/patterns and keeping the original hardware was a Smart choice! I love how you left the top wood, fits perfectly!

Personally I am tired of all wood. And I love wood. If The wood tones and colors are interesting-I prefer wood. But I am no purist about it. The color choices are often boring since so many use the muted greens but better than the all gray trend-blegh, Give me that dame piece in a pink maybe. I mean she did a great job on it-looks good even in the muted green ...
It's about a lack of respect for the past and the talent/skill that resided there. Anyone can strip and anyone can paint. But few people have enough sense to say, "Leave this piece alone."

these comments being on every furniture flip channel is so annoying. if you like antique furniture and dont want it repainted, go buy some yourself. a lot of this antique furniture people boohoo about online was destined to be trashed because nobody wanted it anymore. people taking old stuff thats no longer wanted and turning it into pieces of furniture they actually like is not a bad thing.

Yeah a commode is either a toilet, or an 18th century (so 1700s) decorative French dresser.

I was really hoping that was what she was going for. Oh well. I guess someone else will find this at a thrift store, rip all the paint back off, sand down, oil, and varnish.
Wood is beautiful all on its own, without being hidden behind layers of paint. Stain let's the beauty of the wood shine through, while paint is like throwing a sheet over it. Such a shame....
She did this because this peace would have gone to landfill otherswise. Say what you will, she saved it. Also paint isn't permanent, the wood is still there
You will be fine to see every thing changes with time & seasons and new đ generations who worked hard to restore a throw away to a beautiful piece most people would love to have now. She recycled & restored renewed a throw away & you must make her good work all about you & your age ,& your personal preference is selfish and unkind. Especially from a person your age who should have better manners & appreciate younger đ±đčđđ people doing good works to throw away furniture & make it into a new đ very valuabke beauty now smile đâ€ïž!!!! She should be applauded not beat up socially in line by folks like you who are stuck in their old ways that's not what every one else must follow Be nice or just keep your negative selfish agendas to your self would be more helpful to younger people today, not attacks for art đšđ work if their own restriction, ok !!!!!! đïž đïž đ.
As a historian and restorer, everyone chill the f out. Paint isn't permanent, and she is the one who bought it. The peace is still in tact, just under a layer of *NOT* *PERMANENT* paint.
The way some of the wood is cut, you wouldn't be able to remove the paint without an insane amount of layers sanded off. If it's a genuine French commode dresser, that's 300+ years of history damaged by paint

@@ohtrueyeahnah it does actually look tacky. Painted furniture in that color scheme looks like it came from a 2013 diy mom's pinterest.
But why honour the beauty of the wood, when you can "put your own personality on it" by painting it a hideous colour that will date in 5 years? /s
Painting woodđ©. It takes more work but for once I'd like one of these people to actually retouch the original wood rather than paint over it.
You ask too much. And her clientele won't care.
Especially love the hardware!
Absolutely stunning. Awesome job! Thanks for sharing.
Wood is beautiful all on its own, without being hidden behind layers of paint. Stain let's the beauty of the wood shine through, while paint is like throwing a sheet over it. Such a shame....
Itâs beautiful, for now, but will it be on trend in 5 years?
Even tho I am young myselfâŠbut sometimes I wish these beautiful furnitures donât end up in young people hands since the style nowadays is different from back then so the higher chances we will ruined antique and beautiful furniture đ©
like why not just buy cheap furniture from ikea that already looks like that! or do these DIY to ikea furniture instead đ€§.
letâs respect antique furniture because we all know they donât make furniture like that anymore, dang even clothes..our future generations are going to thrift low quality furniture and clothes made from shein đ

She did this because this peace would have gone to landfill otherswise. Say what you will, she saved it. Also paint isn't permanent, the wood is still there
You will be fine to see every thing changes with time & seasons and new đ generations who worked hard to restore a throw away to a beautiful piece most people would love to have now.
She recycled & restored renewed a throw away & you must make her good work all about you & your age ,& your personal preference is selfish and unkind. Especially from a person your age who should have better manners & appreciate younger đ±đčđđ people doing good works to throw away furniture & make it into a new đ very valuabke beauty now smile đâ€ïž!!!!
She should be applauded not beat up socially in line by folks like you who are stuck in their old ways that's not what every one else must follow
Be nice or just keep your negative selfish agendas to your self would be more helpful to younger people today, not attacks for art đšđ work if their own restriction, ok !!!!!! đïž đïž đ.
I prefer the natural wood and aged hardware.
The results were beautiful. I really like it!
It's so cute!
Thank you!!
Thank you!!
Thank you!!
The hardware is stunning!
Itâs incredible! Never seen such like that before
Love how the handles cleaned up!
IT IS STUNNING đ©
This is one of the few times i wished you had kept the woodđ. It looked so nice
Could have bought it at Ikea after painting. Sad for the basicness.
Nice. But I would love to have seen the natural beauty bought back out.
You are amazing
Excelente trabajo, precioso color.!!!
Quit painting antique wood!!!!!

I think the black wax made it look cheap. Id rather have seen it restained, but those pulls were gorgeous.
Love it!
That's beautiful!
As a historian and restorer, everyone chill the f out. Paint isn't permanent, and she is the one who bought it. The peace is still in tact, just under a layer of *NOT* *PERMANENT* paint.
Great comment. To the people directed to chill out - if you donât have anything nice to sayâŠâŠ.
I think it's a contender for your next furniture rescue, where you take the paint off and restore it to it's original beauty.
Love it!!! It is awesome
The way some of the wood is cut, you wouldn't be able to remove the paint without an insane amount of layers sanded off. If it's a genuine French commode dresser, that's 300+ years of history damaged by paint
Yup

What the heck did I just hear? I swear she said, "I found this stunning commode."
You should see the commode I bought last week! I canât even find a picture online like mine. It is a round , walnut, vintage Eastlake commode. Looks like an ornate stool or side table.
Gorgeous
