It was SHOCKING what was under this paint! Restoring PAINTED FURNITURE
Vložit
- čas přidán 15. 05. 2023
- I'm removing all the paint from this late 1960s walnut and ash dresser I bought on FB marketplace. It was a crazy amount of work but SO worth the time I spent just to see all the different variations and tones of the gorgeous woodgrain hiding underneath the paint.
I kept the drawer faces, leg assembly, top and outer sides all natural, using only Odie's Oil finish, and the inner part and frame was stained to match the natural wood colour on the drawers and top.
I tried to pick out as many of the white flecks of paint as I could, and camouflaged what I couldn't get out. I'm sure some flecks still remain but with open pore wood like walnut, it's often difficult to remove it all, without using a grain filler and stain.
Overall, I'm very happy with how this turned out and I'm excited to share it with you. :-)

Years ago I belonged to an award-winning Toastmasters club. I remember one member gave an incredible speech about wood veneer. He titled the piece, “Don’t Sneer at Veneer,” and gave us an education about the value and beauty of veneers. I never forgot it.
😊 Now in it's 3rd life, it warms my heart to see this beautiful piece of furniture given another chance to sing.
Thank you so much for watching!
Of ALL the furniture restoring people on utube I enjoy watching you strip furniture. Especially when you use your scraper! You really show the detail! You show how you go easy & throughly at the corners that butt up at some points that have detail. And you go do a very nice job prepping the pieces before you work your magic! Well, really, you use your knowledge and common sense on each one you work on. You really think out the process and it shows! You NEVER rush the process. That's why your pieces are sp beautiful in the end! Thank you Angie for the patience & care you do take. It shows. Love your work. I look forward tuning in every time you have a new project on the works.
This made my soul happy. Love that Nacho is recognized as a “business man”! He is precious and we will say prayers that his big heart is just fine!!
He got some fantastic news back from the vet that I posted about on the Community page in case you'd like to read it. Thanks so much for watching!
Oooooh, I'm so happy about it!!! ❤
Praying for your sweet boy. ❤
@@MissMiauliŵ aww¹¹
We lost our ginger boy Oscar to heart failure 3 years ago, he was 8 and a half.... so glad Nacho is OK, he is sooooo cute 😊😊😊😊
I watched this myself tonight and was so blown away by the end results that I made my husband watch it and we both totally agree that your work is magical. Thanks for taking us along .
You're most welcome Pamela! I'm so glad you both enjoyed it!
Just a short note Angie to let you know how much I appreciate all the unseen work (camera work, editing staging, etc.) that goes into your videos. You go above and beyond just the wood working parts of your videos. Thank you for going the extra mile to educate and improve yourself for all your viewers. You are the BEST!
Thank you so much for this! So many don't stop to realize how long everything takes, so I really appreciate this!!
I've watched several videos from other crafts people and yours is the one I always come back to. There are a number of reasons for this, like your voice overs are pleasant, and I love Nacho and the bunnies. The best thing about your channel is that you teach so well. I have learned how to reglue, clamp, sand in order - coarse to fine and not to skip. I can't believe how much more confident I am with my little projects. Keep up the great work.
Thank you very much Kimberly! I'm so glad I can help!
Glad to see that Nacho is being acknowledged for his great business sense!!!
Thanks for watching! 😊😺
As a perfectionist myself, sigh, it is so relaxing watching you work as you pay very close attention to details. It can be quite uncomfortable to watch someone skip over details that, in my opinion, should be addressed. Thank you for that!
You're very welcome!
I like the idea of seeing the beauty of this wood. A tree was cut somewhere, not for nothing. Instead of being thrown just because it was painted with white, it has a second life, and really, … look at this transformed tree now. It is so beautiful to see. It has a lot of value now, to my eyes. Long life to this furniture. 🙌🏻🌹
Thank you so much!
@Aldret Alfred - I agree with you wholeheartedly! By saving these wood pieces, furniture restorers such as Angie are not only saving the landfill, but keeping the tree that was cut down alive and honouring it as it should be! 😊
As someone who suffers from depression and sometimes crippling anxiety, I just have to tell you that watching you work on the pieces you find calms me down. Your eye for even the smallest detail, the way you care for every inch of your project is amazing and inspiring. You have impeccable taste and great eye for tone and color. I’m so glad that I found your channel! And I love that you show your fur babies. I’m a Mother of Cats, and enjoy watching yours. Peace be your journey.
I am so genuinely happy I am able to help! I'm so sorry you have to deal with that - it's incredibly difficult to handle. I'm so glad you're enjoying the cats - I'll let them know. ❤️
First, and most important thing: I pray Nacho is ok! Second: Love his plaque & business card!! Absolutely adorable! Third: This dresser is absolutely beautiful! Love, love, love the two tone, and that grain! Thanks Angie! Please keep us posted on Nacho's heart murmur.
He got some fantastic news back from the vet that I posted about on the Community page in case you'd like to read it. Thanks so much for watching!
@@TranscendFurnitureGallery Saw it! Thank you!
You've done it again! You took a piece that anybody would walk by and not even notice and turned it into something that commands that you look at and admire it. Also I admire the way you display your work for the final reveal. Big thumbs up to you and your work!
Thank you very much!
Angie, I love watching and listening to you work. Watching you load the piece from your storage, then skillfully scrape off the white paint without scratching the veneer is acknowledging the strength and delicacy that epitomizes the term “ability.” Your narration in your videos is so calm and informative, while your tone of voice and lovely Canadian accent are so soothing. You make your videos a Zen experience. Thank you!
You're so welcome! I'm so glad you're enjoying my content.
I grew up with these only owned by the "rich" people. I have always loved them but, my favorite is Danish Modern. So now I suppose I'm one of those "rich" people. Thank you for saving these pieces for the next generation to enjoy and appreciate. Beautifully done as always Angie and I will add Nacho to my prayer list.
You're most welcome, I'm really glad I'm able to save them. Thanks for watching!
Absolutely gorgeous work Angie. Your videos bring me such joy. I’m very sick with renal failure, and your videos help me get my mind off my problems. Thank you for that❤
Oh my goodness Jeffrey, I am so sorry to hear you're sick. My thoughts are with you and I am very glad I can create content to help take your mind off things. All the best and well wishes to you from me!!
❤🙏
I love how this turned out. Hard to believe it's the same piece. What a transformation. I always love your work.
Thank you so much Angie!! ❤️
Beautiful 😍
You stripped it and uncovered a beautiful gem. Wonderful!
Thank you!
You are a good teacher because you give the reason why you do each step. Thoughts & prayers to beautiful Nacho.❤
Nacho got some wonderful news back from the vet and I shared it on the Community page a couple of months ago in case you'd like to go read it. Thank you so much for watching!
I love the midcentury modern pieces you do and you make them look amazing!!! Nacho is so sweet!!!
Thank you very much!
What a beauty! It almost doesn't look like the same piece. Your work is always so enjoyable and so satisfying to watch. Thank you inviting us to your workshop. Cheers from Oklahoma!!!
You're so welcome! Thanks so much for watching!
A very informative and clear restoration video. So much information is usually obtained by experience-thank you for passing on your knowledge. It is sorely needed by amateur workers and is invaluable!
The piece shines! Stellar restoration, as always. 🌟
Best wishes to Nacho. ❤
You're so welcome! I'm glad you enjoyed it!
Another stunner. Angie, you never cease to amaze. Your dedication to restoring the beauty of theses pieces warms my heart.
Thank you so much!
probablemente no me entiendas porque escribo en español aunque hablo y entiendo el ingles pues vivo en Usa, pero te escribo para decirte que eres maravillosa me fascina como trabajas todos los muebles que arreglas y todo el amor que le pones a cada uno de tus trabajos e visto todos y cada uno de tus videos y solo me queda decirte que eres maravillosa en lo que haces felicidades
Translation allows me the ability to read what you've written. 😊Thank you so much for your kind words, they are much appreciated!
Angi, I know you have spent many years perfecting your craft, but you make it look so easy. Almost to easy, like I could do it too. Unfortunately my side tables in my living don’t agree that I have the same talent.😂. Thanks for another beautiful piece.
You're most welcome! Thanks so much for watching!
For all the furniture "purists" who say painting wood furniture is a crime...how do you think these stay in such good condition?? The paint usually protects the veneer and finishes so makes it easier to refinish versus a dodgy stain and varnish job done in the eighties! You did an amazing job Angie and I hope your babies heart murmur turns out to be nothing that will affect his quality of life ❤❤❤❤ And I really appreciate how often you say thank you to all of us for watching, the genuine acknowledgement is wonderful xxx
Margaret I love your comment, you really get it! Thank you so much for watching and your continued support! 😊❤️
@@TranscendFurnitureGallery Better, somebody paints it in order to use it, instead of dumping it!
You are so amazing. You made my day after a day of work. We need more flippers like you.
Awe thank you so much Kevin! I really appreciate that!
💯%. Angie is such a stickler for detail. She cares for every inch of her pieces 🥰.
@Kevin Wilson I agree with you 💯!!! I started following this channel sometime ago and it’s amazing! I was just starting out with my own small business in Ontario Canada and have learned so much from Angie! Glad you are too! Isn’t she so talented? 😊
Angie, yes, there are literally thousands of furniture flippers remaking/refurbishing pieces all over YT. Many of them are putting out garbage that they are too ignorant to know is trash. Some are really quite good at it. But you are unique. Your love for and knowledge of so many different woods and their properties guarantees an incredible result.
Who else would ever have believed this gorgeousness was underneath that icky latex paint? Who ever dreamed it would look like this?! Only you!
And PS: best wishes for Nacho the Macho Hernandez !
Thanks so much for watching! We're so relieved he's completely healthy.
@@TranscendFurnitureGallery SO happy to hear this! It was really stressing me!.
Nacho, ever the distinguished gentleman ❤ I love the pics with his new sign. I hope he will be all okay. And yet again another fabulous makeover!
He got some fantastic news back from the vet that I posted about on the Community page in case you'd like to read it. Thanks so much for watching!
I watch several refinishers, you are by far the best TEACHER in this venue in my opinion. I feel like I've learned so much. I have several projects I hope to undertake this year. I've been buying some tools that will have multiple uses. I really appreciate your explanations! You Go GURL!
Wow, thank you!
Marcia, it could have been ME that wrote this! I agree with you about Angie being such a good teacher! I too am slowly buying tools and equipment for projects that I already have and would like to start soon. Good luck! .. TRICIA
Wow!! Thank you so very much for rescuing this beautiful piece of furniture. Natural wood grain is the best.
Glad you like it!
I watch these videos over and over again multiple times. I love your teaching style, you make me feel like I can do it too! (And I do! My local consignment shop gives me old MCM pieces to bring back to life - so rewarding!)
I love that! That is wonderful you're doing that. ❤️
I just can't express enough how much I enjoy and learn from your channel. Thank you so much for sharing your amazing talent with us!!
You're so welcome Pam!
I love your channel Angie. You are a master craftsman and your descriptions and videos are that of a teacher. Kudos to you. P.S. - Prayers for Nacho.
Thanks so much Sue!
What a gift you have, Angie!…For knowing which pieces have the goodies underneath and then the way you bring out the beauty in it. I so respect your artistry. Bravo!❤
Thank you so much for that! 😃
From horrendous to beautiful ... once again. You can definitely call yourself a master of restoration, Angie! Unsurpassed skills and talent.
Thank you kindly Angelica!
When you said you were using the color nutmeg on this piece I got so excited. It's my all time favorite. Gorgeous piece; as if you'd produce anything else.
Awe, thank you so much!
You’ve knocked it out of the park AGAIN‼️I love how you explain not only what you’re doing but why! This allows others to truly understand the process and adopt those techniques‼️Also - your reveals are superior in that they slowly show each part of the restoration, along with the whole piece. Kudos to you; excellence strikes again‼️
Thank you very much!
thank you for revealing the beautiful wood grain on that piece. I don't understand why people paint wood??? what you did was wonderful, just absolutely beautiful. Keep up the great work. Can't tell you how much I enjoyed your passion and work.
Depression era furniture specifically was made very quickly and often with inferior materials. While that alone offers some historical value, perhaps, that doesn’t always translate into literal value, and a lot of them end up trashed because they just don’t fit in with many modern decor styles. Some things should be left alone. But many could REALLY use an update. I do a lot of full restorations but sometimes a bit of paint on lesser quality wood (and especially plastic laminate coated wood, or Formica) can keep something structurally sound from being tossed just because it’s a bit rough or dated cosmetically. But I like to restore certain woods whenever possible. 🙂
No matter what it was made of, this piece was OUTSTANDING. I want it and I want it bad.
Thank you so much! It's actually going to rejoin the piece I purchased it with after a year of separation.
The time and care you take is a great indicator of your pride of workmanship and respect for the pieces. Please keep taking that time, I greatly appreciate it! Anyone you receives ones of your pieces gets a labor of love and a work of art.❤. I love that bit of two-tone visual interest! I was hoping to see it soon. Thanks!😊
You're so welcome! Thank you so much for watching and your kind words!
Once again, amazing work! Such a gorgeous piece of furniture. Why would anyone cover it in white paint? You brought it back to life beautifully. ❤
Thank you so much for watching!
What’s interesting is that they’re totally convinced that the white paint was an improvement 🤷🏻♂️
It's like this piece is saying, 'You found me! And I'm all ready to party now!!' Great job!! 👏👏👏
Thank you so much!
Angie you do such amazing work! I love what you do as well as your explanations that are so precise that even the noobs (like me) can understand what you do. I would love to see you do a project with your partner, lights, something that moves via a motor or whatever your boundless imagination can conjure! I will say a prayer for Nacho!
I may be doing something with lights in June, and there is a plan for Andrea to do a piece completely on her own at some point, I'm just not sure exactly when. Thanks so much!
Another beautiful piece. Your knowledge of different woods and how they behave under different treatments is inspirational. I wish all good health to Nacho and hope his wee heart turns out well. Sending all the good vibes I can to all of you.
Thank you so much for your continued support and well wishes. ❤️😺
Another beautiful job! As usual from you. Always appreciate when the back, bottom and insides are also taken care of, even if it is just a good cleaning. It just elevates the entire job, even if you don't see it all the time.
And please keep us updated on sweet little Nacho's condition.
He got some fantastic news back from the vet that I posted about on the Community page in case you'd like to read it. Thanks so much for watching!
Aw, "thumbs up" for little Nacho. I hope he can live a long, healthy life. ❤
Thank you!
I just found you as I stress over what to do with my now-deceased parents' reddish-stained 1950s French Provincial bedroom set that needs cigarette smoke blocking & TLC after 65 yrs, 5 kids & several military life moves, that I don't want to dramatically change because of the long memories. I'm working through all your lovely, well-done videos because they all have something interesting for me to know. To me, you are hands down the most fun, caring, expressive, thoughtful, professional, level-headed furniture restorer on CZcams. I love the bunny & kitty cameos too.
WOW! Thank you so much! If you scroll through my posted videos I have a couple where I work on pieces with severe cigarette door, in case they can help. ❤️
Very nice end result - I know it was the style (and still is for the most part) to make the wood used all look like it was all one kind of wood... but I always look at these transformations and think Wow - those different tones of veneer really bring out the design!. Also, your great explanations of the processes to get it there are really interesting.
Thank you so much!
Ohmygoodness ❣️. Such a rich, luscious finish! What an awesome transformation 😊 Thank you for sharing your magic👌
You're so welcome! Thank YOU so much for watching!
I always learn so much from your commentaries. I have so much respect for your ability to "rant" your wisdom even though you know you might get hassled about it. Kudos to you and your gorgeous pieces!
Thank you kindly!
Nacho looks SO proud!😎❤
Doesn't he?? Thanks so much for watching!
It's beautiful! Love the wood grain patterns and the contrasting wood colors.
Thank you very much!
Wow! That is gorgeous. I love how you left the handles lighter around the edge. It sets off the whole front of the piece. And I’m sure Nacho will be fine. Seems like if you can get a cat neutered or spayed before they catch an STD they’ll live forever. We had an old female barn cat that made it to 22!
He got some fantastic news back from the vet that I posted about on the Community page in case you'd like to read it. Thanks so much for watching!
When you showed the final reveal, my heart melted at the beautiful walnut grain.
I could “binge watch” your videos.
Awe, thank you so much!
Just wonderful, your patience and attention to detail bring new life to all your projects. A joy to watch. Thank you❤❤
You're most welcome Susie!
it looks stunning, as always! I love your work!!! I know that sometimes furniture needs paint (when the wood grain is so damaged, or on certain types of wood) but I always look forward to seeing the way you bring out the grain of the wood. it's always beautiful to see!
Great comment! Thank you so much! ❤️😊
Yay, a new video. Love this channel. Best to you and your family.
Thank you so much!
Please don't apologize for showing all the steps on these pieces. I hope to start doing this sort of thing when I retire in a couple of years - so I am learning as I watch. I love seeing it all. Great work again!
Thank you very much! I'm glad you're enjoying my content!
I’ve watched several other furniture flipper CZcams channels. All have their merits. But none compares to your work.
Thank you so much!
Another great refinish, Angie!
Sending best wishes for Nacho.
Thank you kindly Kali!
What a transformation! Who would have thought a classy piece of furniture was hiding under all that paint!
Thank you so much for watching! 😊
Letting the beauty of the wood shine instead of hiding it with paint makes that furniture piece so attractive. Awesome job!
Thank you very much!
Also your videos are the one I like watching just before I go to bed/sleep because it's calming and your voice is sooo soothing😊 And I get to see a beautiful piece of furniture be brought back to life. Thank you again Angie. Goodnight. Good luck finding another treasure to work on.
You're so welcome! I'm so happy you're enjoying my videos. ❤️
What a beautiful job❤ Thank you for being a truly nice, humble and very respectful person on your channel. You are so fun to watch!!!
You're so welcome! I'm so glad you enjoy my content.
Sending positive thoughts and energy for Nacho and his heart! He’s such a pretty cat, and his huge and adorable personality shows.
He got some fantastic news back from the vet that I posted about on the Community page a couple of months ago in case you'd like to read it. Thanks so much for watching!
It always amazes me how you bring something like that to its final elegance! Absolutely stunning & beautiful! 💕 I will be praying for handsome little Nacho and that everything will be ok with him! 🙏
He got some wonderful news back from the vet that I've shared on the Community Page in case you'd like to read it. Thanks so much for watching! 😺😊
At some point someone looked at that wood and thought 'gray paint' that is what this needs. It looks incredible now.
Thanks so much for watching!
Every time I watch one of your videos I learn at least one thing. Most times, several. You are so talented.
Thank you kindly!
Once again, you have rescued a beautiful piece of furniture from a smothering layer of muck and given it a glorious new lease on life! Yay! As for darling Nacho Kitty...😳 That's distressing news, and I truly that hope his heart condition will not worsen! Stay healthy, Nacho!❤💪🙏
Thank you so much for watching Joy!
As requested, I am sending healing energy to Nacho! I am a Reiki master & fellow cat lover, so I am giving it 110%! I have been doing cat/kitten rescue for several decades, and many of my fur babies have benefited from it. Also, another amazing job! I can never say enough about your talents. You are truly remarkable.
I love Reiki and really appreciate that! Thank you so much for watching and your incredibly kind words. ❤️😺
You go girl. You are strong. Do woodworking, refinishing furniture. Lovely.
Thank you very much!
Beautiful! Nacho is the man! Love him. Your expertise is amazing and it’s so enjoyable to watch you work your magic. This is another beautiful piece restored. Thanks for sharing.
You're so welcome! Thank YOU for watching! 😊
What a face..an "Ahhh" moment. Isn't it beautiful how the wood grain runs over from the top shelf to the next? Well done. I look forward to the next.❤
Thanks so much for watching!
The chest of drawers is stunning, bue I knew it would be, having watched the last one. Sending prayers for your sweet Nacho, may he live a long and happy life ❤🙏
We got excellent news back from the vet and I posted about it on the Community Page in case you're interested. Thanks so much for watching!
Always a pleasure to watch your magic operates! Sending all my positive energy for Nacho's health. ❤
Thank you very much!
My dream furniture. So beautiful!!! ❤❤❤
Thank you kindly! 😊
Beautiful! It always floors me that people paint gems like this piece, thank you for saving it🤩
I do a lot of full restorations but sometimes a bit of paint on lesser quality wood (and especially plastic laminate coated wood, or Formica) can keep something structurally sound from being tossed just because it’s a bit rough or dated cosmetically. But I like to restore certain woods whenever possible. 🙂
Talk about a diamond in the ruff. It’s gorgeous. The colour is amazing. Excellent job as always.
Thank you very much!
Thank you for rescuing these beauties!
You're very welcome!! ☺️
It always blows me away how you transform these pieces. 👏👏👏👏👏
Thank you so much!
Found your channel because I am working on restoring a buffet that belonged to my great great grandmother. I am new to this but every single one of your videos I learn something new to help me with this daunting task I have. It’s amazing what you can do to these pieces! Keep the videos coming!😊
Oh I definitely will and I'm glad I can help!
Nacho is such an adorable boy! I wish him good health and a long kitty life!
Thank you kindly!
How wonderful to see this lovely piece of furniture brought back to life.
I'm so glad you like it! Thank you so much for watching!
My father was a fully apprenticed painter and decorator. In those days it was a 7 year apprenticeship. He often used the dry scrape technique, if appropriate. He use a scraper called a shave hook. ( I always thought it was a shafe hook) I still use one. It had a triangular shaped head with one side curved. Great for getting into the nooks and crannies. I'm from Scotland. Love your scraper.
It's kinda funny how the little orange tabby boys seem to burrow into our hearts. They are so sweet. Keeping Nacho in our thoughts. We love watching you do magic and Nacho his inspections. Pat Muffin on the head too.
I will do that! Thanks so much for watching!
Only just found your channel by chance today, but all these great restorations of vintage furniture has been really nostalgic.
It's wonderful to see all your love and hard work turn into something so fantastic ❤
I'm so glad you found me! Welcome. 🙂
Oh my gosh, this was such a change from what it looked like when you started to the completed work! I love the contrast in colors between the legs and the body, beautiful. The grain really pops out and looks amazing! Thank you for finding this jewel and bringing it back to life for us to watch.
You're so welcome, I'm glad I could do it! 😀
You have a dedicated following for your videos because you are the best. Entertaining, educational and encouraging. Always a joy to watch.
Awe, thank you so much Jill! 😊
Wow!!!! That piece is strutting with AMAZING attitude now!!! Great work!!!! LOVE IT!!!
Thank you very much!
I learn so much just watching your videos not to mention how much I enjoy the final art pieces you create. Thank you for sharing. Your videos are very professional as is your work.
You are so welcome! 😊
❤ the surfboard looking details on the drawers. The finished piece show at the beginning is breathtaking. Your passion for saving pieces from the dumpster or bringing them back to their former glory is shown in every step you take and results in these marvelous pieces.
I'm so glad you like it! Thank you so much for watching! 😊
Another lovely finish. My favorite part is watching Odie's do its thing.😊
I really enjoy that too!
I appreciate your attention to detail caring about the paint on the underside of the furniture as well.
Thank you so much! 🙂
You attention to detail is amazing. Love all that you recreate, Angie. Prayers for Nacho🙏🙏🙏
Thank you so much Kathleen!
I feel like I can feel the wood sigh when it is finally free of suffocating paint and old, tired finishes. "let me breeeeeaaaaathe!" And then to see it get a good dose of moisture treatment is like giving a tall glass of water to someone in the desert. "Aaaaaaahhhh!!!!" It's so amazing to see these pieces sing again. The wood grain and textures of this piece are stunning. Thank you for you hard work and attention to detail. PS Nacho Hernandez' name plate is a crack up. He's totally owning it. "Yes, it is as it should be..." he's saying.
You're so welcome! I'm so glad you like how It turned out. He is incredibly proud of his nameplate and business card. ❤️
I love how you restore old pieces bringing them back to life. Also want to send well wishes for Nacho. 🙏Please keep us posted. ❤
D
I definitely will. Thank you so much!
Mahogany and teak used to be my favorite woods, but now I think it's walnut. What a beautiful wood!
Thank you so much!
I like when you explain your different methods of paint removal and why. Very nice piece...I never understand how someone can paint on something so beautiful.
Thanks so much for watching!
Once again, a transformation that exceeds expectations. Well done, indeed. Best wishes for the “Business Man” and his health.😊😊
