The lemon wallpaper was a good call!
Really cute 🍋The lemon paper was a fun enhancement!
I think so too!
I absolutely love how this piece turned out and it was a great call to add the lemon paper instead of the blue.
My favorite thing about this video was listening to you talk to the piece as you worked on it. "Excuse me, sir, but you are in the way!" I found that relatable and a delightful peek into your workroom. I'm also feeling spoiled with so much K. Scott content lately! It's the highlight of my weekend. Thank you Katie, you are appreciated and your content is loved!
My grandson was sitting close to me while I watched. He said “Is she talking to the furniture?” 😂
Hanging with Katie in her garage is my favorite Saturday afternoon past time. Beautiful job on a piece of furniture that would have been easy to overlook!
I do not usually like yellow. This piece is beautiful. Great job
Glad you like it!
Met the mentor of a part of my life who turned out to be well known and home in the best of mags. What yellow is this,I asked of her home dining room? That started it. She noted that yellows are the hardest to get. I found that to be true. But there was a time ,low on funds I got a kitchen yellow for a dark attic room being changed into a restful bedroom in a cloud. Sponged on beige, pink, lite gray carefully over that primal yellow. Inside a cloud,I sold that house on the added room, yellow can be anything but is always life and light. Thank you, miracle worker and teacher.
Finally!! furniture that is fun and functional and not taupe with a paint wash top!! Well done and thank you for a fun to watch video
" It's gonna be a brite, brite sun shinny day"
The color is absolutely refreshing and happy!
I really like the bright fresh yellow. I see that being a coffee bar on a porch as you enjoy the morning.
YES!!!
One of the things that takes time that people don't factor in, is trying to remove hardware, old nails, etc. And half the time your tools run out of juice half way through, or you can't find the right bit for some odd screw. I felt your pain, and triumph when you "won"!
Can’t love this enough. The bright yellow for the win and the wallpaper pushed this fun piece right over the top. Like you said, this piece won’t be everyone’s slice of life, but the right person will be willing to pay top dollar for this jewel.
Very bold color but very cheerful and sweet! A great addition for the right house! I like it!
I love the color, yellow is my favorite! Does anyone else see a face on the door, with the handle as a mouth and the curlicues as eyes? 🤣🤣🤣
I thought I was the only one
I thought you were crazy for painting a piece yellow. But that piece does serve as a good canvas for yellow. The lemon contact paper was the perfect touch! You have a wonderful eye for transformations!
That’s beautiful…now I want to bring brighter colours into my home…
Katie, I am totally with you about hinges... they are a pain and they never seem to go back quite right. I love that you did this piece in yellow. It's just lively and happy. Great job as usual.
Absolutely LOVE this! Does anyone else see Chiquita Banana lady on the door?! 😂❤
I love and really agree that all matchy furniture us just boring. This piece is pretty, fresh and fun. I bet it would be a conversation piece too but in a good way!
I love how you talk to your furniture. I do that too. I'll worry when it starts to talk back! :) Another great video!
We are heading back into bright. Kind of leaving the Wearstler era and moving back into Jonathan Adler. I would LOVE to see the room this gets moved into. Vibrant is the new black 😁
I loved the paper over the blue
I love what you’ve done with this piece. Most people are restoring with beige and neutrals, it’s great to see some personality.
The color is fantastic❤ and I love the lemon paper. So festive and cheerful.
I’d love to be her neighbor. Her best friend. I just know she’s the best in the world. A fantastic talent, heart, and personality. She’d be so much fun to be around. Of course being a country apart would make that difficult, but she’s everyone’s bestie furniture flipper on here. Virtually. That piece is amazing.
Wasn't sure about the yellow. But your vision is spot on! Turned out gorgeous and the color just makes it even more beautiful! It's a very happy decorating piece! 😊❤
Wow!! That's yellow!!
Bold, bright and spreading joy every time you walk by this creative gem 😎💛🍋🍋🍋. A winner, Kate👍
That turned out great, and I love the lemon patterned paper on the draw and door
Katie...i love what you do.,.this would look adorable as an " on the patio" bar cart!! I can picture it now!
I love this. It's so much fun. The wallpaper adds a great surprise that just makes me smile.
I’m at child of the 60s and I hate that style furniture, but this turned out so pretty!! That yellow is to die for!! Well done Katie! You are so good at what you do!! I want to be you when I grow up!! 😉
I loooooove this bright yellow color! My style is generally neutrals and Earth tones but i love adding in pops of "obnoxious" neon colors like this to keep things fresh and interesting
I totally agree!
I didn't think I'd like the yellow - but WOW! It's fantastic! Another great job! Thanks for sharing.
Bold, i love it! Perfect for the patio.
I hate yellow in clothing for me, but I love yellow away from my skin. This piece looks gorgeous.
I love it. Yep: not for everyone. Fortunately. I prefer to be different. It turned out very well.
Holy moly lemon cannoli!! Absolutely love you were brave enough to make something this obnoxiously colorful!! Came out fantastic!!! Can't help but put you in a good mood. Hoping all is well Katie, Dirty Jersey out!!!
Thanks so much 😊
I love it Katie!! Such a fun color! Glad to see that I’m not the only one that talks to my furniture while I’m working on it!! 🥰🥰🥰
I love it n changing blue for lemon wallpaper was absolutely the best idea!
a terrific splash of happy. super transformation, Katie!
I was pretty skeptical at first that you could possibly work your Katie-magic on that (ahem) piece.
But you did!!
👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Adorable! Great, informative video, too. I think it could easily go for $350 or $375.
Sometimes a pop of colour looks fabulous in a room 😊
I LOVE this - that colour turned that unit from fugly to fabulous. A pop of yellow is always a yes in my opinion.
Looks beautiful. So glad you changed that blue to the paper. All I was seeing was “IKEA”, LOL.
Right?!
Excellent craftsmanship
Love love love it. I would have this in my home without a shadow of a doubt xx
Love this. More makeovers like this please. The world needs more colour.
I love the piece. I would like to have seen you go full boho with it, bringing out the carved features with lots of colors. It would be fun. And a good bar cupboard.
My front door is this color! I LOVE it!
Yellow is my favorite color. I was excited before the finish. Nice. 😍
The color is bold, but came out gorgeous.
You just took me right back to 1969 and in my room I painted it exactly that yellow and had lemon printed drapes! 😮it was insane. Then on my dresser I had three wooden wide dowel looking candle holders painted aqua and yellow and green striped with candles to add to the ambience. It was quite the room. I feel I moved on from my yellow period and never to return until I saw your cabinet today. It’s amazing!
When I heard when you said bright lemon yellow ? Was a little throw off. Would have never thought of that color. I love it the finish project 🍋❤🍋❤
Omg this is stunning. I don’t have vision like this. I’m boring! lol
I’m boring too! BUT I’ve gotta challenge my undying love of beige and black every now and then 😜
This color is so fun! So cute.
To my old eyes it's really I catching good job Katie
I truly Love this piece! You made a great job on it.
yellow always makes me happy, Its a fun piece and refreshing from the normal neutrals. I for one would love to see more fun colours .Thank you.
❤the lemon color
The addition of the wallpaper made it wonderful.
Beautiful! Love your idea! And easygoing personality! Made me smile, I love it!
Thanks so much! 😊
Love the yellow!
Love, love, love! 💛
As always, we saw a suitable reconstruction full of techniques and ideas. Personally, as a carpenter and restorer, I liked the painting part. Great and don't be tired for all this trouble 💚🤍❤
if this had been actual wood I would have been heartbroken BUT I am so delighted that you cheered up such a sad material in such a fun way!! quality work ❤🎉
love the yellow
When you said yellow, my eyes sparkled 😁 Love how it turned out ❤
Love it !!! Thank you for all your videos. You are a really good instructor. ❤️👍🙌
It’s so cheerful!
I love this piece! It bright and cheerful 🍋🍸🍸🍸
Surprisingly beautiful, esp the lemons inside!
Yellow is my favorite color. Love love love!! I would price between $250 to &350 range.
Love the bright yellow! I recently did a little bar in yellow and my husband thought I was crazy. The piece was free and it adds a nice little pop of color to our dining room 💕
That is awesome!
Love your channel, Katie!
So so cute!!!!
I love it! Especially the lemon paper; That was a great call. The only thing I would have possibly done differently is, I would have put the antique gold Rub n Buff on the handle as well, to tie it in with the rails. But it still looks great the way you did it!
Katie going bold and I LOVE IT!! 🍋
love the yellow!
Such a happy colour! Love it!
SO creative. I'm unsure of just how much I'd sell it for. Then again, it turned out so great that I'd be tempted to keep it.
Wow, how fun and Beautiful!
I discovered your channel a few days again and I have been watching you ever since. I have always wanted to start a business like this but never did. You have encouraged me to start. Your videos are clear, precise, and informative. You are encouraging to your viewers and down to earth. Which is wonderful . I love the colour choice for this piece. Love the lemon paper liner. ❤
Very bright piece ....
You just showed me the type of thing I’ve been looking for for my dining room! I knew I wanted a buffet of some sort, but now I DEFINITELY want a pop of color!!
I love castor wheels on big pieces of furniture that might be moved to different areas, such as this server might be for a party. I can easily move a piece 10:53 by myself. Personal preference.
Gorgeous color choice! I love the lemon liner paper as well. You took this from tired and heavy looking to fresh and modern. Beautiful!
It's pouring rain here in St John, NB today, so I'm on a Katie Scott video marathon today. I hope to be in a larger apt on August 1st. I'll be picking up aome pieces at ReStore to refinish and I have plenty of ideas from your videos. Thanks so much!
It’s raining in Moncton too ☔️
My favorite colour. So happy to see bright colors
I think the lemon paper looks great!!
I just love the tropical vibe! I could also see some of the beautiful greenish patina copper on her. 🏝️
Nice save. Definitely bold and not for everyone but now it can be enjoyed!
I hope so!
I really liked your choice in the color and after adding the lemon paper it's even better looking and fresh
LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE
Good call on the yellow, it’s a happy color & who doesn’t need some happiness in their home? 🍋
WOW!! When you go for a bold color, you go BOLD! That's definitely a fun piece that will look great in the right space! Like you said, everything doesn't have to be neutral! ❤
I love it! 🍋
I really like the very cheerful yellow along with the lemon paper on the back of the door and drawer front. This piece makes me smile! 😎 I can see this piece on a covered patio holding snacks for a bar-b-que. Great job!!
I was thinking orange when I first saw this. But you hit it out of the park with the yellow.
I would change the handle. It doesn't "go" with the rest of the details. It's too plain and modern. I would look for a brass handle to match the little brass rails and the design on the door. I think the yellow paint choice is great--a lemony yellow, and yes, it was a good idea to change out the blue paint with the lemon motif wall paper.
