This waterfall dresser needed a modern makeover, so I started off by removing the tattered wall paper with the help of some vinegar and water. Soaking it for a few minutes made it scrape off without much difficulty.
My main objective with this one was to take the regular waterfall dresser style add a midcentury modern personality. Adding the classic MCM legs after flattening the base helped with this, as well as the handles that I made using some planks of scrap pine that were collecting dust in my garage for a while.
Let me know what you thought, and if you would have done anything differently!

The handles I made for this dresser was an attempt to turn a waterfall dresser into something more modern, but I stared at the final product for a while questioning how it looked. I'm curious of your honest thoughts on them; should I have kept the original handles? :o --- Go to tryfum.com/MODERNMAKOVERS and use code MODERNMAKOVERS to save an additional 10%

As soon as you rolled the dresser into view, I was hoping you'd change the handles. They were way too far apart and ugly. Your treatment was perfect. Also, the beading had to go. Fantastic work as always, you might be my new favourite furniture restorer. Looking forward to your next video.

In my opinion the original handles looked better with the dresser. The new ones are great too, but to large and it hides the beatiful grain pattern to much

I loved the handles. However, I think they may be too dark? I wonder what they would've looked like stained a couple shades lighter? It would not stop me from enjoying this in my home, though. I watch a lot of furniture restoration videos here on KZfaq, and in my opinion, you are the best! Period.

When you first started sanding the trim, I questioned the idea but love the choice now. It is easy to lament the decision made by another when reworking a piece to make it more modern, but it’s how things were done throughout history. Home facades were built and removed, gowns and jackets reworked to current fashion, paintings having things retouched are all examples well documented, and furniture pieces as well. I find the work that you’re doing without fault.

For myself, I still remember when someone mentioned to Antiques Roadshow that they'd tried to sand off a decoration, and was told that if they'd gotten it off, it would have removed a lot of value from a very old little table. (the table was 1700s make, valued at $400k USD at the time) Make sure you know what you have before committing to something like that!

The 1920s, 30s and 40s are my favorite styles. Won’t lie, it was painful to see the pulls, trim and bottom silhouette removed. I do restoration and stay true to original because that’s my preference. Everyone has their own vision of what they love. It’s still a beautiful piece and if it makes you smile, that’s all that matters. Enjoy!🎉

Eek! I hope Andy isn't smoking! At least he isn't using obnoxious rust remover! Grandma, I bet this people who are all about "vintage" wish vintage looked this good! I'll go make some tea for us.

The trim has it's time in the spotlight. I think the size and shape of the new handles is cool but maybe a bit dark? Maybe? I'm not sure. 🤷🏼‍♀️ Amazing result as always. Glad to see the sock made it's regular guest spot. 😂😂

I like it that there's an old sticker in there that you left. Grandma's going to love her new dresser! 😀

Leaving the Peppers sticker in the top drawer was a nice touch.

You were absolutely right about the trim! You turned that into a thing of beauty! 👏

So relaxing to watch, it makes me sleepy...believe me that is a huge compliment. Most channels clutter my ears with repetitive generic music, while yours is void of it, and that is part of the magic of your videos!

Grandma would be proud! Looks awesome. I agree with getting rid of the trim and adding the new handles.😄

It’s so satisfying pulling wallpaper off. I love wood far more than wallpaper! I’m glad that trend is over!

Splendid job! At first I was opposed to your sanding down the detailed trim but you made it work with the MCM theme. The legs you put on the piece worked well. You do nice work, I look forward to all your videos.
