- Our friends from Sweden gave us the sweet three drawer, pine dresser...but its MANY layers of paint desperately needed to be removed! Come with me as I tackle those layers with everything I've got; chemicals, sanding, AND heat gun, to reveal the original Swedish Pine. Then I'll mix up the perfect paint wash recipe, giving our Scandinavian friend the gorgeous reclaimed pine look it deserves.

Multiple paint removal techniques, new paint wash techniques, new decoupage techniques, this gorgeous project reminds us that the song was right, “Life’s a dance, learn as you go.”
Oooooo, love that!!! Many thanks!! 😊💗🙏
Andy, I don’t know what I enjoy most about your furniture fables! Is it your flair for the dramatic in creating a humorous and highly entertaining storyline, your vision and creative talents that result in truly unique pieces, or your eclectic choices in the music that correspond so perfectly with your narrative? For me, it’s a tie, and it’s always a treat to see what you and your cast of zany characters are up to next!
Oh my goodness...thank you so much! It's so encouraging to hear your feedback, I am truly grateful, and so so glad you enjoy the Fables. 😊💙🙏
I couldn't have said it better. Andy is always the one and only I absolutely refuse to miss. ❤❤❤
Well said. I do get her music going through my head. Can't get enough Furniture Fables.
Absolutely beautiful! I have never seen someone sand off the decoupage paper to create that stamped effect. I love it! I love the wash you did and I’m always all about shiny knobs, handles and pulls. This is such a special piece and I really hope Drea told you how much she loves it. It’s the same but completely different!🌸
Yay, and thank you so much! So great to hear you liked that sanding of the fiber paper, and great to hear you liked those shined up pulls. And I think even SHE will like it! 😂🙏💙
Such beauty & class! Loved that decoupage technique on the drawers AND the paint wash! I think I heard the piece say, “Ahhh! Feels amazing to get out from under all those layers of paint! I can breathe again!” Congrats on another amazing outcome!
Oh thank you! And love that, so great to hear! 😊💗🙏
I had the same reaction -- could almost feel the chest taking a deep cleansing breath.
Whoa...the chest of drawers' past life was good, but it's present life is the best. Thank you for bringing beauty to our world.
Love that, thanks so much! 😊💙🙏
You never cease to amaze and surprise me with your fables! They are educational, entertaining, relaxing, and funny. This one knocked it out of the park, and best of all, you did it for yourself! I so enjoy your videos they allow me to stretch my own creativity. Just love what you do!
Oh wow, thank you so much, Barbara!! So wonderful to hear this! 😊💙🙏
I’ve never seen a piece of furniture go through a weight loss program. 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂. Man ‘ol man that heat gun trick was satisfying to watch. I think I heard the wood inspire deeply then breathe a sigh of relief once released from it’s cocoon of paint. And again as usual I’m yelling at the screen “NO DON’T DO A PAINT WASH”. Oh ok do that paint wash. “NO DECOUPAGE” Well, yes THAT is nice. “Ok you’re right, I’m wrong”. BEAUTIFUL!😮
😂😂😂 Omg, I LOVE that!! Yes, I too think I heard those sighs or relief! So glad you liked those choices in the end, thanks so much Chalma!!
She’s went from rags to riches….and looking truly gorgeous … I love the white wash technique and the decoupage paper was over the top… Another great performance 💕
Hooray, thank you so much, Kim! 😊💙🙏
Wow, I loved seeing how effective the heat gun was at removing all the layers of paint! It’s such a charming piece.
So glad, I loved that part too! 🔥 Thanks so much. 😊💙🙏
I bet that dresser felt like a butterfly. She now can breathe. You took her cocoon off so she could soar! ❤️
Oh I love that, thanks so much! 😊💙🙏🦋
Back to back weeks of furniture fables, feels like Christmas! 🎄🎁
Awwww....LOVE that!!! Thanks so much!! 😊🙏💙
Omg, I love it. That mix of paint washes is just what that pine needed.
Your friends are going to want it back.
Lol, yay!!! Thanks so much. 😊💗🙏
It’s turned out beautifully. I love the look of the colour wash that you used. You are certainly a multitalented lady.
Yay, thanks so much!! 😊💙🙏
The paint wash, the distressed decoupage paper, the patina on the hardware and the design of the chest all came together to make probably my favorite redo in a very long time. I flat out loved this. Makes me want to go out and find a pine chest of drawers. I enjoy your videos so much. They are so entertaining. Thank you for sharing.
Oh wow, thank you so much for this Katherine! Such great and encouraging feedback to hear, I'm so glad you loved this one. 😊💙🙏
Love everything about this beautiful dresser.....right up my design alley. The decoupage technique with this lovely paper is soft and sweet. And you and Drea are always a treat !!
Hooray, so great to hear that!! Many thanks! 😊💙🙏
Andy, watching you put up those little dialogs is a pleasure. It is theater and furniture upgrading all in one. Most enjoyable, thank you!
Thanks so much, I'm so glad you like my less than traditional combo/approach! 😊💙
This turned out so lovely! I agree with every choice you made in this makeover. It was so satisfying to see the heat gun tackle that thick paint. I also love the dialoge that you and Drea always have. Call me entertained! Thanks a million.😀
Oh Andy this new but the same chest is absolutely beautiful! I love the decoupage paper, it adds so much beauty! Wow, it's just gorgeous from top to bottom! Your work is awesome! 😊❤
Wow, so great to hear this, thanks so much Pam!! 😊💙🙏
I love everything you did to the piece. Love the paint colors. The weathered decoupage paper makes the piece and love the shiny original pulls. Simple and Elegant. 👍👍
Thank you so much! 😊💙🙏
I felt sad when you began sanding the paper but was awed by the effect! It turned out beautifully! Thank you Andy. ❤
You’re welcome, and thank you! So glad you liked that effect in the end! 😊💙
Wow. Love the entire transformation. What an incredible idea with the paper. I never much cared for pine, but that wash is just what it needs. Simply beautiful.
Yay, thanks so much, Joyce!! 😊💙🙏
I could hear "her" take an deep breath once all that paint came off. Lovely piece, lovely techniques!
I think I could too! Thanks so much! 😊💙🙏
That is just beautiful! Such great choices for sure! And YES! Worth all that stripping (of paint), sanding, color washing, decoupaging, more sanding…..just really lovely ❤
Hooray! Great to hear, thanks so much! 😊💙🙏
🤯 That decoupage technique with the paint wash is pine perfection! What a special piece!
Hooray!! Many thanks! 😊💙🙏
The paint wash is really nice, but the distressed paper on the drawers is the perfect finishing touch. And I'm glad you kept those handles; they are so pretty.
So glad you liked the fiber paper! Many thanks! 😊💙🙏
The decoupage paper sanded down is absolutely gorgeous on this piece 😍 you did such a wonderful job! Always inspiring to watch your videos ❤
Yay, so glad you liked that effect! Many thanks. 😊💙🙏
I LOVE everything you did to this piece. Good to go for years to come ❤
Thank you so much! 😊💙
Absolutely beautiful! During the process, I wasn’t sure I would like the sanded paper, but when it was finished, I absolutely loved it. I also liked your choice to leave the hardware a little bit on the well loved side. By the way, my heat gun is named Dragon’s Breath.
Yay!! So glad you liked those choices in the end! And cheers to Dragon's Breath!! 🔥🔥🔥
And the Academy Award goes to…Furniture Fables By Andy!!
WOW! Gosh...I have so many people I need to thank....thank YOU so very much!!! 🙏😍🤩
I don't think I have ever seen anyone do the decoupage paper like that before. Its a great effect. I love this piece. Well done
Yay, thanks so much! 😊💙🙏
Beautiful! I love the subtle multiple colors displayed in the wood after the paint washes and the paper looks gorgeous.
Thanks so much!
You always surprise, but never disappoint.
Thank you so much, so honored to hear that! 😊🙏
You should have heard me screaming! Have you lost your mind! That was when you started sanding the decoupage. Now I have been humbled and have to say, "she made it work'. Well done. Thank you for opening my eyes to new things. Another excellent piece.
Lol, I so get that! Thanks so much, and so glad you liked it in the end!
I questioned your choices the entire way but you surprised this viewer in the end. I love it. 😊
Yahoooo!! Love it when that happens! Thanks so much, great to hear. 😊💙
Outstanding transformation. So many paint layers. You were very patient with this gem and it turned out beautiful. 🌞
Many thanks, so great to hear that Debbie!! 😊💙🙏
I love it! I wasn’t sure I would like the paper but it really looks great! Another excellent makeover, Andy!
Thanks so much!
What a wonderful transformation! Just beautiful! When I was renovating houses, many years ago, the heat gun was my best friend!
Oh, I'll bet! Many thanks!
Wow Andi. I love how this dresser turned out. That was the coolest use of the decoupage paper ever. Amazing
Hooray! So glad to hear that, thanks so much!
You are absolutely right, ”kolli” means package, and is used especially in connection with a shipment by post, train, boat, etc.
Yay, thanks so much!
What a beautiful finish! So much better with those layers removed. The heat gun paint removable was so cool
Yes!! So in love with my heat gun right now! 🔥 Thanks so much! 😊💙
Definitely a choir of angels moment !
Yes, indeed!
I just watched this again...I am really drawn to how that pine warms up and becomes SO elegant! ❤
I'm so glad to hear it! Yes, I think this is my favorite "recipe" for pine, ever! 😊💙
Glorious! That merits the Hallelujah Chorus! Seeing all that paint come off that easily would make me want to sing.
You and me both! 😅🙏 Thanks so much! 💙😊
I absolutely love this piece! You have such a great intuitive sense of design and you’re not afraid of experimenting and discovering new, innovative ways to bring your vision to life. A true artist! 👏
Wow, thank you so much! So amazing to hear that. 😊💙🙏
Watching all the sanding , washing, stripping, painting wipping, polishing, etc, you must arms like Popeye? Very lovely. Unique.
Lol, I wish!! Thanks! 😊💙
I love what you did with this piece Andy! It turned out really beautiful. I love the blue decoupage paper and how you distressed it. And of course I would pick the pulls in a shiny new look!
You are amazing and I would be so proud to see what you did with a piece of furniture that I left with you. The love and care you give is truly amazing and I’m sure they felt it.
Wow, thank you so much, Kate!! That is so great to hear, and I'm so glad you loved how this one turned out! 😊💙🙏
Stunning.....believe this is my favorite among all your projects; and that's saying something!!❤💘💘
WOW, thank you so much, Karen - that's so fantastic to hear!! 😊💙🙏
Andy, I loved the way you did the paper, sanded off around the edges. The colors are perfect! You really know what you’re doing. You’ve given me ideas for an old orangey pine Santa Fe style buffet I have been wanting to refresh! Thank you!
Oh I'm so glad, thanks so much! 🤓
Such a Beautiful transformation.....and that Technique of the decoupage paper is amazing...love how you kept the antique Look .. outstanding Andy 🥰🙌
Thanks so much!!
Beautiful! I love how the accessories changes the color of the chest and therefore makes it a more versatile. Truly remarkable techniques that create such a one of a kind piece. Thanks! 🩵
Wonderful to hear that, thank you so much! 😊💙🙏
I adore the finished distressed look. Charming!
So glad to hear that, thank you! 😊💙🙏
WOW ! Amazing transformation. Love the stamping look of the decoupage, and that it was sanded. Beautiful stain. Beautiful piece. Congrats !
Thank you so much! Great to hear you loved those details! 😊💙🙏
I absolutely love that painting mixture I am a fusion girl myself and those two make a beautiful pair to wash away all that pine yellow!! Just beautiful. I like the sanded paper look. Absolutely perfect!!❤
So great to hear!! Yes, definitely my favorite "recipe" right now. 😊 Thanks so much!!
Stunning and a great tribute to your Swedish friends heritage. Loved the paint recipe, too. 💜
Thanks so much! 😊
Stunning! Maybe my favorite piece you have ever done!! ❤
Oh wow, thank you so much, Tracie!! 😊💙🙏
When you started sanding the decoupage paper…😳 my first thought was, “what is she doing???”
It all turned out beautiful!
I loved the brightened hardware.
Yay, so glad! Thank you so much!
beautiful! that decoupage paper is the bomb, and the aging effect is perfect! such a beautiful do-over!
You never fail to surprise Andy. Fabulous
So nice to hear that, thanks so much!
Just perfect❣️
Great tutorial - using the heat gun, the paper sanded down to fuse with the wood! Really think your friend will be impressed with the care and TIME you took to keep the piece the same but better:)
🙏
Thanks so much!!
So glad you are back! This was an amazing makeover, loving the fiber-paper technique and can't wait to try it out. Bravo Andy!!
Yay, thank you!
She took a deep breath,,free from the gunk,,,she’s gorgeous
Love that. Thanks so much!!
Stunning! I thought, "Oh no" when I saw the paper because I thought it was too bold, but you made it look... Marvelous, Darling.
Thank you so much, so great to hear that! 😊💙
That turned out beautifully. I love the way you worked the blue paper.
Oh I'm so glad, thank you so much! 😊💙🙏
Hi Andy! This is one of my favorites that you have ever done. Love how it turned out. Thanks for sharing.
Oh I'm so glad to hear that, thanks so much, Ann! 😊💙
You are my favorite! Yasss to the magnetic tray and heat gun 👏! Love the whole transformation and you have given me inspiration for a pine piece that I have from my grandmother 🥰
Oh I'm so glad, so great to hear!! Thank you so much, and best of luck with your grandmother's piece! 😊💙🙏
I’m in love with this piece. The suspense as to what it was going to look like, especially with the blue paper was fun. Beautiful job!!
Hooray! Thanks so much!
So glad I found you! the 'Swedish' caught my eye, as I'm half Swedish and love to refresh my space with my heritage in mind.Thank you!
You are so welcome! I'm so glad you enjoyed, thanks so much!
WOW, another deep dive for this rescue! Love it. 💝
Yes! Thank you!
Wow that idea with the decoupage weave is a game changer. I can't wait to try that 🧡🧡🧡
I'm so glad you think so! I really like the effect...thinking of other ways to use it. 😊💙🙏
I was on the fence if I liked the finish until you added the cream color on top, and that did it. IMO, that was just what the wash needed. Absolutely love the decoupage paper. Gorgeous.
Oh thank you, so glad you liked that "special sauce"! Yes, I think it makes a big difference. Thanks again! 😊💙🙏
Fabulous makeover. I love the color layering paint washes and the distressed decoupage. Top notch!!
Thank you so much! 😊💙
Amazingly lovely! I especially loved the outcome with the combined application of the two different pain washes !!! Thanks so much for sharing
You are so welcome, thank you! 😊💙🙏
I was so sure I would not like the end result, but I was wrong. Loved it! Cool effect with the fading blue flowers 🌺
Thank you! 😊
Gorgeous! I absolutely love the technique with the paper!
Thank you so much! 😊💙
This is a “yes” all day long❤
Yay! Many thanks!
Love that distressed decoupage! Nice job!!!
Thanks so much!! 😊💙🙏
Hi Andy, what a beautiful transformation. Love it!!
Many thanks, Veronica!! 😊💙🙏
Oh Andy such a labour of ❤All that stripping and sanding 😜It turned out So Beautiful!
And I’ve never seen anyone do that with decoupage paper 🤔❤❤ it ! Drea must be over the moon with this makeover 🥰
Lol, indeed she is!! Thanks so much!!
Hi from Cambridge UK. The chest of drawers is just beautiful. Well done. This gorgeous piece of furniture would grace the best houses.
Oh wow, many thanks!! And big hello back from California! 😊🙏💙
One of my favorite pieces of all time. So subtle and classy.
Thanks so much!! 😊
Beautiful result Andy! I admire your creative design sense and your diligence! She looks very fine! :-)
Many thanks, Mary!
All the work you put into that was worth it! You're creative touch put it over the top! ❤❤❤
Wow, thank you so much!! 😊💙🙏
Really cool how that heat gun works. It reminded me of my childhood when my older brother would ask to have the weathered sunburned skin peeled from his back. Veru satisfying as I tried to see how big of a piece at a time I could peel before it had to be started at another point.
Lol,, oh man - I remember that! 😅 Thanks so much!
Gorgeous! I love the decoupage technique. Definitely going to try that! The layered paint wash was interesting too. thanks for always being so inspiring with your projects. :-)
Lovely to hear, thanks so much!! 😊💙🙏
I'm a Andy Fable person!!! You seriously are so fun to watch, not to mention, extremely talented in my opinion.. both theatrical and upcycle type of person? LOL, not sure if that made sense, but all I know is, you have a gift and I'm thrilled each time I'm notified that you have a new video :) Take care sweet Andy!
Hooray, many thanks, Toni! So great to hear this!
Love all the techniques used in this. Love the colour paint wash recipe and the decoupage trick. Well done 👏👏🌸💞
Thanks so much, fantastic to hear! 😊💙
just perfect, wow, what a change. Love the wash and you gave me some pretty cool ideas with some decoupage paper and what to do with it. As always, thanks for sharing your videos.
So glad to hear it, thanks so much! 😊💙
Beautiful! Love this piece, color choices and the decoupage. Very different and makes a gorgeous heirloom.
So great to hear that, thanks so much! 😊💙🙏
I learn something new each time I watch...and best of all...I always have a smile on my face and a lightness in my heart at the end. Thank you😊
Love to hear that, thanks so much!!
P.S. I'm so happy that you kept the very pretty hardware.❤
Yay, me too!
I’m a big fan, and this project was fantastic. Reminds me of the bedside trunk that I have had for forty years, and finally addressed the unattractive maple orange finish this year. It needed a few small repairs; fortunately it was shellac which sanded off easily, leaving to my astonishment a very early 6-board trunk with iron nails and beautiful hand cut dovetails. I used a chalk paint (AS Country Grey) paint wash, then linseed oil followed by clear wax, then white wax. LOTS of polishing, but it feels the same but so much better, and I can really appreciate the construction. The paint wash keeps the maple very pale, which works well with my home. So satisfying!
Wow, that sounds fantastic! Thanks so much.
Beautiful! I just joined late, at the end, but now I'm going back to watch the whole process!
Awesome! Thank you!
The effect you did on the drawers is so beautiful. I’m completely in love with piece from top to bottom. Ah-mazing work girl!!
Thank you! Cheers!
Oh Andy, look how beautiful she is. 😍 I was not sure about the paper at all, until you sanded it in. The wash dressed it, but the drawers raised the skirt, if you will. I look at this piece and it reminds me of Marilyn standing on the subway grate. 😊
Stunning 🥰😘
Wow, and thanks so much! 😊
Wow Andy...you never Disappoint! ❤
Many thanks, Bonnie!
Beautiful transformation! It truly is the same but different. I love the paint wash finish. The sanded paper is not to my taste, but it suits you and your home, so that's the important thing. I can appreciate the beauty of the piece without loving every little detail. Great job!
Thanks so much!! And totally get that...I actually wasn't sure if I wanted it crisp or weathered...maybe next year I'll change it up. 😊💙
Every decision you made was perfect, I love the end results, great job!
Thank you so much, Sherry! 😊💙🙏
Beautiful decoupage technique and I like the wash with 2 shades of paint. Pine is a difficult wood to restore. Very Swedish!
Yay, thanks so much!! 😊💙
The paper is perfect. I love the sanding technique. Beautiful job.
Thanks so much!!
@FurnitureFablesbyAndy, you're welcome.
I just found your channel. I loved this remodel. Gorgeous color and paper detail. I really appreciate the detail to be through, not just a bandaid refinish job I see so often. This piece is beautiful.
