  • DON'T THROW AWAY YOUR OLD LAMINATE DRESSERS! They can often be saved! If this pair looks a little bit familiar, I did do a pair recently that WERE quite similar. It's just such a beautiful combination, the white wash with the paint, that I thought I'd share this set with you anyway. PLUS- there were a couple of issues that I had to tackle that you might find helpful, ESPECIALLY how I deal with laminate tops that have been damaged and would otherwise be scrapped! I opted to flip the hardware "upside down" when finishing this piece- I like the way this looks better, and this little piece goes from sad to HAPPY!

    I know you might never see this comment since it’s a year old video, but had to say I so appreciate your genuine gentle, and loving spirit. It comes through in all you do. The appreciation of all the goodness of already created furniture, manufactured or hand made, is so wonderful. Your work is knowledgeable and artistic. Thank you for showing all your learned tips even like putting painted furniture feet on the clips!! Genius. I’m new to flipping and use it as my creative outlet for relaxing after much time spent in pastoral counseling and caring for others needing repair and refurbishing , so similar 😉
    My favorite line this time is “Frankenstein-wood” haha

    Bought a table from Ikea in a beautiful dark, almost black finish and the kids have ruined it with their science projects, dinging, scratching, rubbing the finish off. I thought I would have to throw it out and buy another but I’m going to use a sander and strip off the top and apply a dark stain and put a protective coating on it. Thank you for the inspo! I feel like furniture we threw out could have been saved if we gave it just a little bit if extra TLC. Hopefully I can save a couple things we have now because I really didn’t and don’t want to be someone that just throws stuff away. Tysm!

    I love the tones you picked out. It looks great. My little boy and I did the same to an old dresser that's been in our family since the 60's. It was falling apart and looked so ugly. So we moved it into the backyard and started sanding, did some repairs and then stained and sprayed it with a semi gloss clear. Looks brand new. And my little boy is so proud of himself because now it's in his bedroom. It was so much fun working with him and making a special memory like that with him. He was only 6 at the time but working with tools made him feel like a big boy. Thanks for sharing your ideas.

It had the same finish and legs but wooden handles, and you're right, it was very solidly made, all wood and lasted. Still in good shape when I gave it to a family member several years ago. 😊 I love to see sturdy but rather grungy things remade like this, thumbs up. 👍
