This dresser was hidden in a stable after the owner gave up on trying to epicycle it. I took it home and completely transformed it into a modern boho statement piece with very unique custom legs.

You work full time in a hospital, you study full time at school AND you have a youtube channel which you upload to every week?? Damn, that's a serious grind. I subbed to you about 10 mins ago because I've seen a few of your videos now and I love them. I wish you all the success. Your hard work deserves to be recognised and applauded. Huge respect.

Just for future reference, if you soak the cane webbing as well before cutting it and stapling it in, it's much easier to work with and then as it dries it tightens up. Just be sure to use enough staples that it doesn't pull taught strangely. Very cool transformation!

Tienes razón en eso de remojar esa malla (no sé cómo se llama ) pero después todo el trabajo está perfecto 👍

@sterno5119 10 ай бұрын

That's what I thougt also. It must be soaked, that's correct. By the way - you call the wickerwork "cane webbing" ? In Germany it's called "Wiener Geflecht" = Vienna weave
