So clever adding that trim! It's amazing how that and the beautiful color made it a completely different piece. Stunning!

I am one of those in the camp of not painting old furniture but there are times that you have no choice. If the dents and dings cannot be sweated out or sanded, then you have no choice but to fill and paint. This piece turned out beautiful and definately ready to take on another 50 years plus.

I love when you take old, damaged and lifeless furniture and bring it back to glory!

I was one of those people who used to cringe when people would paint over wood furniture, but I must admit Katie, since watching you and how beautiful your pieces come out-fully restored and usable plus saved from the land fill---I do not feel that way any longer! This came out wonderful!!!

Where were you and KZfaq when I had all these amazing pieces at my disposal and I unfortunately just sold them!?! You are a true gem and an amazing teacher. You show all your fails and how you redirected to make the piece look beautiful. I can't get enough of your channel!

I put in manufactured hardwood floors years. I put felt pads on every piece of furniture. Couple of reasons. To protect the floors. I'm a short female, and I didn't always have someone to help me move something. My husband, who wasn't around when I did this, said I was crazy. Now, he appreciates my foresight.

Wow! Beautiful! Those little keyhole inserts really provided that last little detail of beauty!

7th year! Congrats, Katie! So happy to see you back. This little dresser got so much love from you and looks amazing now. Great job!

Absolutely loved this, you put so much work into it and the finished drawer unit is really lovely.

I think the trim was a perfect touch, looks amazing!!

You took a sad and tired piece and gave it new life. It looks brand new. Yes to painting furniture !

I love how much work you put into your refinishing. Love this little dresser makeover!

I like the added trim not just for the aesthetic element but also because it serves the purpose of protecting the original carving if someone else wants to restore/recreate it later on the existing wood. You've given this piece a new lease on life!

Beautiful transformation as always. Love it when you save a piece from the wood pile

Great before and after. When you said “dang it” while trying to remove the nail made me laugh. I felt your pain. ❤

Katie, been a subscriber to your channel for about a year now….I absolutely love how you breathe new life back into furniture pieces when you think there’s no hope left for them. I’m learning so much from your channel, hope to do this as a hobby once I retire. You’re an inspiration to furniture lovers everywhere.

I was originally disappointed that the original carved detail couldn’t be maintained, but it came out beautifully. Gorgeous color and really complimented with the hardware color! And thank you for including the details regarding exactly how you use the spray gun.

This piece turned out absolutely gorgeous. The decorative trim added a beautiful touch. Awesome job saving this old piece 💚💚

Had to be painted, looks beautiful as usual.

Fantastic job bringing that old girl back to life😊

Sooooo pretty! Much prettier than original.

Lovely upgrade. New trim piece looks like it was meant to be on the drawers. Color is perfect

Haha my 18 month old Golden retriever ran up to the tv when you showed Tater on Chris knee....he nosed the tv, wanting to love him. He is sweet❤😊

Thanks for saving that solid wood chest of drawers, Katie. I think you did right by it. The new color is beautiful.

I didn't like the color when it was going on, but the finished product is so elegant! I can't imagine it any other color. Love it! And how you styled it, even more!

WOW!!!!!!!!!!! so great, awesome color, really good job.

Beautiful work!! I love that you painted the back and visible parts underneath. Living in many small, quirky apartments, it is a good idea!! The backs of my furniture showed as I like angling my furniture.

Love the repair & color. Beautiful! 🩵

Fabulous job, really great looking outcome. The keyhole inserts , the added drawer trim and paint colour really brought this piece back to life.

Great job reviving this piece ❤😊 I agree that sometimes . . . It is better to paint a piece in tasteful colors. I love that shade of green. Adding the trim is a nice modern accent to this.😊❤❤

Beautiful. kept its antique look, while bringing it into a happy modern green future. Well done.

Oh my wow!! This has got to be one of my new favourites of yours. It’s just, perfection. Every choice. Ah-mazing work on this piece, Katie!

How amazing! Its gorgeous now; love that color! My hat is off to you for having the courage and creativity to give this little chest a second life.

It is absolutely beautiful. Love your makeovers of giving furniture a new life. Katie since you got back from Waco Texas your channel has taken on a new personality. It is so refreshing to see you so animated. Thank you. 👏🏆🥰

What an outstanding makeover!! Love to watch you transform pieces!! Thank you so much!!

Ive been watching for a while without subscribing. I described today because I always like your work, ideals, and attention to detail with a calm voice.

You did a beautiful job. I love your philosophy re old furniture. Personally, I would have spent the extra $20 on the more ornate trim, but what you ended up with is so lovely!

Lovely refresh for this old piece, and still has plenty of character!

So glad you’re back! You were missed. Beautiful job.

Great job Katie!! The dresser looks wonderful

This is Beuutuful! In Chicago we call that color Chicago grey, as if we invented it. Depending on the lighting, it leans green grey or blue. Like a chameleon. 🦎

Well done! The green is beautiful! I love painted furniture when it is done correctly 😃

Been missing your videos. So glad you are back. Stunning work as always!❤

I have a wobbly dresser and have not been able to find a guide to tighten the joints. Thank you for sharing that bit of your restoration! This dresser turned out beautifully! Thank you for sharing all your hard work. You are inspiring!

I love it Katie…you really have good insight into each furniture piece!😊

Loved this! I think this is one of my favorite makeovers you’ve done. I love antiques and appreciate how you stayed true to the style and nature of this piece. Brava!

Would you please do a video on all of the safety stuff you use? I am thinking of doing this as a side hustle and I am also a nurse, so I would like to protect my lungs and skin from dust and chemicals. Thanks! (You rock! Your videos are so chocked full of great info and lovely staging. Thanks for giving back to your community too!)

Beautiful! What a wonderful job on something that most people would have pitched. I love the color choice.

I think it would've been fun to try "re-carving" the original design on the drawer fronts - just take a woodcarving knife and sort of trace the existing lines, see if you could get the depth it was supposed to have back again. If it didn't come out well you could still cover it up with new trim like you did. Not trying to be hateful, I think the final result was pretty, just offering an idea :)

Nicely done. Love the color. I've never thought of flipping a top over. Smart move.

I love to watch you ! You’re such a great teacher ,And you are very neat and go extra miles to keep your pieces as beautiful as possible! What a professional ! I wish we were neighbors, but I’m down here in North Carolina and learning with your videos, thank you so much!

Welcome back! This is beautiful, love the added trim, the color, and the painted handles. Wonderful work!

I love your attention to detail. If I was a buyer of a flipped piece, I think it would be fun if there was a before and after picture of the piece taped inside. Then it would be obvious to me not to redo and strip it.

Such a labor of love! I knew you would paint the back😇 Thanks Katie

This is just so lovely! You worked so hard. Well done!

Looks so much better now! Great job as usual 😊

Another awesome project 😊 was so nice to see you - I love how you explain everything - I miss you posting regularly longer videos to KZfaq ❤

Happy New Year! “Holy cost of living, Batman”. 🤣🤣🤣💜💜💜

Another lovely old solid piece given a new look and new life ❤

Beautiful piece.... you saved another one!

So grateful you posted this ~ such a magnificently sweet piece created by a very sweet girl ~ you really are such a good person and I thank you for sharing ~ I learned a ton !!!

You do such an amazing job refinishing furniture.

WOW !! What an improvement, turned out beautiful. Green is my favorite color..Love it ❤

Gorgeous. Love the trim detail you added. Super before/after. I know some people hate painted furniture. However, I have seen a lot of old wood dressers that are covered in lots of dark stain to mask the fact that the piece has different woods or woods with defects - seems pretty similar to painting it, doesn't it? Now if you have a piece that is made with gorgeous wood specimens and isn't broken and falling apart, by all means try to save it and bring it back to its original glory. To me, keeping something out of a landfill and giving it new life is the most important thing. And BTW, lots of people LOVE painted furniture. I happen to love both.

What a beautiful redo on this piece!

What a transformation! Beautiful with character. Thanks for sharing.

I'm amazed how much time and effort you put into this rickety piece of furniture to bring it back to some former glory and you did an excellent job of it! I admire the integrity of your work in that you didn't cut any corners or use inferior products; I would not hesitate to buy a refinished piece from you! And you are correct in that these lovely 'old' pieces of furniture will last another lifetime if we could just avoid throwing them into the landfill and purchasing plastic stuff from Walmart and Ikea! Anyway, well done, Katie - I'm going to sub for more of your projects.

Oh so beautiful...I had my doubts at first. You put your heart and soul into this one.

Hi Katie! Love the color and trim added. So clever to flip over the top! She's beautiful again.

Came out wonderful! Trim was a great choice and the color just fits it!

This is my favorite piece you’ve ever done. 💕 it’s absolutely stunning

She's beautiful!!! 😍

Beautiful! Great paint color and trim. So relaxing watching your videos. Thanks for sharing, Katie.

This piece is super cute! love what you did! Thanks for sharing Katie!

Times change, styles change as well. You wouldn't wear clothes from the 50s today, That beautiful paint job gave this piece a new updated wardrobe. Great job!

Lovely! I would gladly have this in my home!

Looks beautiful again! Love the green.

Gorgeous! This has inspired me to add trim to a vintage dresser I just picked up today off Facebook marketplace! Well done 👏🏻

It’s fabulous! That color suits that piece to a T.

Turned out beautiful. Love the color

Stunning and the trim was the crowning piece!

The dresser looks so beautiful!I love the color! 💯❣️

Incredible! So charming and elegant - you gave it new life!

Great result. I love that the vase on top matches the color of the dresser.

Every piece you redo looks so good.

Missed you! So beautiful this piece.

Love the color and the little key holes. ❤

So glad you are back with a furniture video. Good start to 2024. Love the colour of this piece. 😊

Beautiful, Katie. Love the trim & that Fusion colour is gorgeous.❤

It’s beautiful and that new FMP color is stunning ❤

Wow! What a difference! I love the colour! 😊

This is one of my favourite products you’ve done! It’s stunning.

So cute! I wish you could have saved the carved detail but it really was worn down. The finished piece is super cute and it will look beautiful in its new home.

Absolutely a beautiful paint job. Looks amazing❤

So great watching these transformations!

Good one, Katie! Nice save!

Katie, you completely revived this dresser! I love what you did! It's beautiful!

7 years!!! I can't believe it.....thank you for all you do!

When I first saw this I thought this will be lame but you did it again and made a beautiful piece. You have the magic touch.

Looks FANTASTIC!!!!!!
