Extreme MCM Flip - The paint was SO bad 😩

It's lovely. Reminds me of a MCM walnut bedroom suite that a cousin held onto because it had been hideously expensive in 1964! I would have run away screaming from the Blue Beast, but you tamed her with the refinishing equivalent of a whip and a chair.

I’m actually REALLY GLAD you talk about your mistakes because it helps me know what to watch for!

I’m completely in awe of how much work you put into bringing this piece back to life. Now it can go on to live many more years in someone’s home. It is stunning!!

Exquisite. You chose the perfect color. I can't believe someone painted over that gorgeous wood -- and even the hardware! The height of laziness. Thank you for bring this piece back to its former glory.

You saved this piece! I wouldn’t worry about the frame not matching. It’s the way it was made not an imperfection. Beautiful work!

I learned so much from this! I really like the finish - not too dark, not too light, and true to the era.

I wish I was 20 years younger. I’d love to be able to do this work. I always thought I’d be gardening and painting chairs and refinishing furniture in my retirement. Hasn’t worked out that way. I remember my mom used to do this. How satisfying!

Watching that paint come off was so satisfying! I love how you take us through the mistakes, I always learn something new when creators do this. The piece looks fantastic, she’s a total Beaty now 😍

This definitely was a total transformation. You have so much patience to bring the beauty back to this piece that would have most people running from! Great job.

That dresser was a nightmare! Well done!

I admire your tenacity with this piece! All that work!! Job well done!

Your attention to detail in stripping is impressive!

Live and learn! That dresser taught you some good things you now have more knowledge you can use in future projects and your videos you put out sharing what you learned help others. That’s awesome! And honestly got a very complementary color in the end! That poor dresser was a drippy, colossal mess! And wow underneath all that was a gem…so glad you took it on! I see those rails are just a wee too brown so is you do anything with that dresser I think that is all it needs. I think if I was going to redo them I would just use syringes and just mix fairly mix a small fairly precise mix to do a test that is small. Adjust the amounts in a new mix with cleaned dry syringes.use just enough to do a small test on a rail that has a drawer on both sides of rail. Eventually you will pretty much be able to do such without thinking too much! I did custom framing for over twenty years, new and repairs, and if color was off you definitely can spot it! But so much easier if you can do color matching with smaller areas and when you do go to mix a bigger batch still test that! I hope that helps! ☺️

You’d never know this piece was painted, you did a perfectionist job getting the paints off!

Stripping and sanding can be so frustrating. Sometimes I think I’m gonna strap and then I revert to sanding and then when it won’t sand I go back to stripping again. I feel like you really help us understand that you need to just work through it and I’m very appreciative that you explain the problems you’re having. Your channel is very real about that and it is so refreshing. Thank you so much for sharing the whole process

I love this and I hate light wood finishes but you can see the quality and hard work you put into it!

You are totally bad-ass for refinished furniture. No matter what the issue is you can fix it and make it beautiful. You are awesome1

LOVE IT!! Amazing transformation.

Beautiful results 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼

Beautiful piece!
