  • This outdated, country style bench is getting a serious update to a more classy, contemporary style with the help of a little chalk paint and a brand new oak wood base. This definitely isn’t a beginner level project but I hope it can help you see the potential in some of your own unloved furniture and maybe try updating it yourself instead of buying new.

    Can I just say I LOVE when you say you’re not sure how to do something but you’re willing to try and figure it out anyway! I love that you’re willing to work with “less desirable” pieces which would take up just as much room at the landfill and in a shorter amount of time. They can still be gorgeous useful profitable pieces. I just snagged my first curb alert 3 drawer bureau so here goes nothin! I want to turn it into an “anything you want it to be” modern cabinet with a new base & legs. Excited!

    I have a similar piece. It has the same base. Different top. It was the first ever piece of furniture I bought. It was the summer after I graduated. 1993. Lol. I’m handing it down to my daughter. I’ve planned on painting it. But a new base is a great idea! I’m a woodworker and I already have a Kroger jig. So I’m set. I’m super proud of you making your base. Awesome! I love this piece.

    I was so happy when you just hammer off the top trim. That along with taking the handles off made a world of difference. I feel like you described it best, remove all the things you don't like to start. Even if you don't know what you want to do, sometimes the vision comes after that.

    Back in the day, chests like this cedar one, but usually with a solid lid and not glued on tapestry, were called "hope chests". A young lady would crochet or embroider linens for the home she hoped to someday have. If she was fortunate enough, she would inherit nice linen table cloths or napkins. The bed linens were always new, and she would embroider the trimming on them. 💘

    Hi Katie, I loved watching the transformation of this piece, it is absolutely amazing! I think the color is more green than beige. I'll be joining you on the daring task of building your own base.

    This looks amazing! And the colour looks exactly what it is named after.

    Great job! And...the base was the reason I clicked on the video. I have an old dresser that I would like to update and that base is JUST the thing.

    Nice job, Katie! hard to believe that it's the same piece of furniture. Now that it's dry, I can see the sage aspect.

    Awesome Katie!! 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽 I’m a huge fan of @DIY Wife and her Base. I think everyone should have a Craig Jig in their toolbox.

    Omg. 10:33. Same I am a painter, I’m kind of afraid of power tools. But I have her video saved in a list.
    Thank you so much for doing this, maybe I can move past my fear. Because I LOVE these bases!!!
