This was perfect as a vanity desk for me. czcams.com/users/postUgkxMAlHv7-BBWMrPRm5-uEoD6rtdT7SG2Qr Especially the glossy finish. Easy to cleanI was looking for something that wasn't the traditional white and with more of a modern feel. This fit the bill beautifully. I put it together with no problems, by myself in under an hour.Make sure you double check where you place the drawer tracks before screwing down. I had one track that needed to be aligned with different holes than the rest.
Thank you for showing all of the headaches of the job too. Often we start on something and when it doesn’t go like the video we get frustrated. You kept going with great results!
I had hope it would be encouraging to see the mistakes as well. Lol
You did an outstanding job Robin, it’s absolutely GORGEOUS!!!🥰
It is gorgeous! I love the dark stain with the white base. So pretty.
Thank you for taking us through your process of refinishing your dining table. I appreciated your sharing the different stages and missteps along the way, so we could learn with you! The table looks great...and you've inspired me to get started refinishing my dining room table!
Good evening Ma'am, oh how I THANK YOU for the sharing of this video❤❤❤❤❤❤ I'm differently going to try this with my 70-80's wood table lol God bless you have a WONDERFUL week 😊✌
Love how it turned out! 😍 Even the darker than you wanted top! I just helped my daughter do this to her (was ours when we had the kids at home, but we gave it to her family of 6 🙂). All the same issues you had! Huge, heavy rectangle, trestle base, no leaves. Such a beast of a table and a job! All done in the dining room; a messy week. It did finally turn out nice! It has the same stained top, but she went with a medium grey color for the base and 6 ladder back chairs. They have twisted paper seats. A more industrial looking farmhouse style. Pretty, but I prefer the classic, crisp white. 😉 Beautiful results❣️Tfs
Thank you for all your help! I got a nice drop leaf shaker table at a garage sale and went with minwax dark walnut will white chalk paint for the legs and base now it looks amazing!
You worked your magic again! I love your NEW table!
Stunning! And kudos to you for the perseverance, you ain't no quitter!
I love the richness of the red oak! Turned out fabulous!
It turned out so great I can't wait to see how you do your different displays on your new table
OMG, I Love It!!! It looks awesome and it go so great with everything now! I especially love the stain you used for the top, I think it is perfect! Thanks so much for sharing!!!
You are TRULY patient! Kudos to you, it looks amazing 👌🏼
I love it, it's beautiful. You certainly have patience. Great job.
I love, love the way your table turned out Robin. So worth all the work you put in. Just gorgeous!!
I love it! I have a table that was very 90’s dark cherry and although I paid a lot of $ for it and it seated everyone, but I grew to hate it. Here is my makeover and I just LOVE my table too!
A labour of love Robin and something to be so proud of.... and congrats on your perseverance with the lacquer as it would have sent me round the twist 👍🤪
A beautiful piece. Well done Robin.
Wow! It looks amazing. Beautiful.
Robin your table turned out absolutely beautiful. . You did a awesome job. . Thanks for sharing ♡♡
It is very beautiful. I like the dark top and white bottom. I would not have had the patience to do that stripping and sanding but well worth it. Fabulous job as usual.
My daughter and I are in the first stages of sanding same table. Thanks for the tip about the Lacquer, you have safed us from doing the same..The table turned out beautiful.
WOW! beautiful job Robin!
It looks beautiful Robin and boy was that lacquer stubborn! Well worth it though!! Thank you for sharing 💕
You have just inspired me to get on with a table I’ve been putting off! 🥴 You’ve done a beautiful job, Robin! Well worth all your hard work! Kind regards from Penny in Liverpool 🇬🇧😊💕
LOVE the end result. Good JOB!! Extra points for perseverance...
It’s beautiful! I need to refinish my tabletop. Thanks for posting!
Oh my goodness Robin,it's just beautiful..
Robin, Robin, Robin ,Your table is absolutely gorgeous, just beautiful .You always cease to amaze me. All your hard work was so worth it . Robin I love, love, love the color. God bless
It should read,m “you NEVER cease to amaze me”......but I knew what you’d meant....it just made me laugh in a good way!
Good job Robin..very meticulous work. I never would have thought that a white base would work with a dark oak finish. Nice
Wow..what a change...all your hard work paid off...don't sweat the small stuff its beautiful
Good job Robin! You had your challenges, but you won! 👏👏👏
I am so glad you stayed away from paint on top. very good choice on stain colour. Well done
I got a new phone & I couldn't find you.... So happy now, there you are!!
I have a table just like this and am looking to make over mine too!!
I hope your hubby appreciates all you do to make a beautiful home.
What a wonderful transformation. Great job!
That is my table! Haha. I love the make-over! So helpful as I am planning to update mine as well. Thanks for sharing
Beautiful table! Thanks for sharing the steps!
Absolutely beautiful! Great job!

A labor of love . Really lovely and a job well done!
Wow that was a big job!! and you did an awesome job on the table, I know you were tired of working with all that lacquer... but you're persistance sure did pay off... The table looks beautiful❤
That looked like a lot of work but boy does that table look great!!! Thanks for sharing 😊
Awesome job. I might copy this look for my farmhouse table. My table is already that dark and I could just redo the legs, bench and chairs. 👍🏾
Beautiful table!! It looks fabulous!
Wow, beautiful turn out!
That was a true labor of love, Awesome job👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
That’s just stunning! You did an awesome job!
Beautiful!!! Looks So much better. Great job
That is a beautiful transformation! A labor of love. It looks sooo good.
Thanks so much, it turned out well.
Robin your such an inspiration to me now kill try a redo on my kitchen table!
OMG!!! You paint everything!
It looks really cute, I love the shape of your table!
Have a beautiful day!
Looks fabulous! Thanks as I have a few small projects to get started!
I'm so impressed with your work. I'm right now trying to do a table and chairs. This will really help me. Thank you. Your friend in Az. 🤗🤗
Beautimos! You did a great job. Love it, we did the same thing to our table except I used Jacobian instead of red oak.
WOW, it’s beautiful. I love it.
I have he exact same table. I redid mine last year. I took it all apart, took it outside and using the same sander as you and the stripper went to town. Well it was really hard work. But I was determined to get it done. You see I have four kids who grew up around that beautiful Canadian red oak table. I didn’t want to remove the marks that where embedded in it from my kids doing school projects, homework, crafts and many many family meals at our wonderful kitchen table. We’ve had this table for 23 years. I stained it in Java , it took 3 coats and then 3 coats of polyurethane. I did the whole table this way, it came out beautiful, even my husband loved it (he too didn’t want me to touch the light oak table). You did a great job. It turned out gorgeous. Now my kids are fighting over the table who will inherit it.
Thank you for sharing. Going to tackle my table now!
I'm hoping to recycle a little dining table. Thanks for the tips. Your table looks amazing
Your table is so pretty...I bought one similar at salvation army and I got four chairs for 50 bucks for the set...I love thrifting as well...I was just looking at your table runner video...I'm going to attempt it...keep up the good work..
Thanks for sharing now that I know how much refinishing will take I think I'm just going to paint mine lol 🙃. Nice job :)
NOW that looks really good! You did such a great job! 😀
Great job! I'm hoping to have the courage to do this to my table.
Seriously sharing the problems you ran into helped SO much more than a perfectly edited* video. I’m redoing my wood dining table and chairs and I learned I want to use a chemical stripper as it will be easier to remove the old varnish.. I don’t want to have to manually “strip” it off afterwards
Wow!!! Nice job .....looks beautiful 🥰
OMG! I’ve been wanting to do this exact same thing with our table. It’s very similar to yours.
Wow! Beautiful Robin! It looks brand new! What a lot of work!
Thank you, It was alot of work but totally worth it now that it is thankfully done.
It looks so nice. Thanks for the tips.
Looks great. I have 1 similar but only 1 pedestal leg. Bought it used and top needs refinished but I wanted the chairs more than the table. I collect vintage tablecloths ..so I have pretty covers for top. Take care.
Love the contrast between top and bottom. Breaks up white as well
Wow! Beautiful! 🤗
well worth the wait. It looks so beautiful
I love, love, love it!!!! You are the bomb and it looks fantastic!!! I would like to take on a project like this one day, just not today. 🤣
Very beautiful!!!👏👏👏
Great job. It’s totally beautiful
Your "new" table is beautiful! I think it will fit nicely into your dining room. I really like how you managed to create a cozy home, using mostly used furniture and decorations. Greetings from Croatia :-)
Beautiful! You did a great job!!
It's beautiful... great job!
I think your work looks fabulous! Excellent job!
Love the new look 😍
Looks great
Just a tip, stripping gel works better when applied in thick coats, and won't need to sit as long as if you used a thin coat. It would save you a lot of time!
Thanks for the tip, I did figure that out towards the end, hehe
It also works better if you cover the citristrip with plastic wrap to keep it wet.
It's beautiful! Great job!
You do great work! Beautiful!
Excellent work...It's gorgeous!
Your hard work paid off. It’s lovely 😊
Love the table! You did an awesome makeover! ❤
Love it ! You did an awesome job !👍🤗
Love what you did to your table. You have such unique decor ideas and I really like what you do. I must tell you that I love your channel as well. I dream of a house like yours. Thanks so much for sharing.
Beautiful and well worth the effort
It turned out beautifully!!!
It looks fantastic! You have the patience of a saint!
Very nice work. I have the same table and was thinking of the same for ours. Now im sure its a great idea. Thanks for the video. I have redone tables before and no its not easy. You did a fantastic job
Absolutely gorgeous Robin!!!! I love the dark stain on the bottom. I think it turned out perfectly! 💖💕🌸💕💖
Thanks so much Suzanne. I am completely in love with it.
I love your table ...well worth the time and effort. ..I'm just about to do mine ....wish me luck x
I have a very similar table. I'm going to do the same thing to it. Thanks for this makeover. Now I know what to expect and the hurdles I will encounter. I love the result Robin. It looks wonderful.
Painting the whole thing would have been easier but in the long run I think this will weather better. Good luck on your table makeover
Thank you so much for inspiring me to do this project for my house. Helped so much!!
Very good video. I've been nervous about tackling my own dining table but this has inspired me.
Thank you for the wonderful video. Great idea to sand the corners of the white so as to define the shape. Looks fantastic. P. S. Always wear a good quality dust mask when electrical sanding old paints even if your outdoor. Those micro dust partials are notorious for causing cynus infections.
