    What I love about your DIY videos the most is how you & your husband share in the joy of creating beautiful successful projects. How wonderfully blessed you two are to have that within your marriage. Perfect example of what being equally yoked & on one accord together looks like. Keep the makeover videos coming because I really do enjoy them all! peace & blessings unto you

    Christine, I bought a dark dresser 10 years ago at the Goodwill. Always wanted to make it white. I found your video during my lunch hour today, and now I am totally inspired. Have to put this project on my to-do list. Thanks so much for all your great videos and I am glad I found your channel.

    @hollyxo. Před 9 lety +6

    You did such a great job on both the make over of the dresser and the making of the video. Your video is concise, to the point, and yet seems to cover all the most important aspects one would need to know to do it themselves. Great job on both counts!!

    I have been watching your videos for years now and I love the variety which you offer. You guys are great and it is nice to watch videos where you do not need thousands of euros to achieve similar looks. Keep up the good work!

    Watching this great makeover makes me want to give all my tired furniture a facelift! I especially love the pop of color in the inside of the drawers!

    • @christinekobzeff
      @christinekobzeff  Před 10 lety +1

  • @valkyriesardo278
    @valkyriesardo278 Před 9 lety +2

    I love the choice of using a mist of white spray paint over the silver on the door pulls. It gives a frosted blur that softens the harsh bright of the metallic. It "pearlizes" the hardware which is more companionable with the luminosity of milky white on the wood.

  • @Nefertsukia

    it's one of the prettiest dressers I've ever seen.. if not THE prettiest. :)

    OMG Christine you are genius. You should have your own business helping people to transform they homes on a budget. I would have you do it for me if lived in the UK.
    I admire your patience, I would just get bored in the middle of the project.

      Haha, thanks Nisha! That would be awesome if we lived closer. I'd be coming over with my paint brush ok whattaya got for today's project haha. ;D

    • @SugarPuffAndFluff
      @SugarPuffAndFluff Před 10 lety

      pinksofoxy Yes , you don't know how much I would like that, my first project is my bedroom. I consider myself quite a creative person but maybe not in the home decorating area , I can never make a decision on anything and takes me ages to even choose a colour scheme , so yes you would be a great help. Maybe I should move to Maui lol, at list the weather there is much better than here in the UK.
      Have a nice day
      Nisha xoxo

      I painted my bed and dresser exactly alike. The one thing I will say is, the sealant that I used make the finish turned yellow. How sad I was. I found out that it's better to use water base polyurethane. Oil base turned the color yellow. I repainted the furniture, and use water base. What a joy.

  • @skyeangel61
    @skyeangel61 Před 10 lety

  • @AfroTee
    @AfroTee Před 10 lety +4

    It's so nice to see you and Michael work together! The idea to put a pop of color inside - genius. I really like that! Makes for a nice touch of "happy" every time you open a drawer.

    • @christinekobzeff
      @christinekobzeff  Před 10 lety

      Thanks beautiful! Michael is so cute, he makes working on these projects even more fun! Oh and you totally nailed it about that pop of fresh minty aqua, it's like instant "happy" loves it! This color combination has inspired me to build out a jewelry organizer drawer that matches. Woohoo can't wait to do that DIY. :D xoxo

    • @AfroTee
      @AfroTee Před 10 lety

    I love the colors you chose! I have been thinking about painting my old dresser, but I was debating on what colors to choose. I knew that I wanted something off white or white, but I have never painted furniture before, so this really helps. Thanks! And the mint green in and around the drawers is gorgeous!

  • @cherries1952
    @cherries1952 Před 10 lety

    I adore these type of videos. I like how your channel has been a mix of life. Many times I skip through makeup demonstrations on other channels. Especially when everyone is using the same new palette. I love Tide Pools on the inside of the drawer & the outside. I'd love a room painted in that shade. Unfortunately I live in an apartment & have to keep the same boring off white walls. Accessories in that shade would be a wonderful find. Your always so inspiring. I always look forward to your videos. I especially love your day in the life. Fascinating seeing where other people live. Thank you for all your hard work. Keep these videos coming.

  • @marywest2896
    @marywest2896 Před 8 lety +1

    turned out so beautiful, if your drawers seem to stick since you've painted them you can run a candle on the drawer edges and the inner rails of the dresser to help them slide better. I use canning wax. it comes in a block and is clear. it really helps your furniture not stick if you live in a humid area like I do. i may have to apply it once every 1 or 2.

  • @xxzibbyxx
