If furniture could talk, I'm sure every piece of dejected, ready for the landfill piece you work on would say, "Thank you for the opportunity to have a new life serving in & beautifying someone's home once again!" Great job, Katie!

Fantastic! Thank you for painting the underside-not only does it make it look "finished" but seals in any weird smells for wherever it lived in its past life.

As someone who lived through the eighties, I have very negative feelings toward most of the furniture from that era. I thought there was no way that you could do anything to that table that would make me like it. I was wrong. It is beautiful now. Brava!

@JamieM470 2 ай бұрын

Me too...and I have the same table! The only difference is mine has smooth legs rather than fluted, and it doesn't have that plastic ring that she painted black. It was called a "sofa table" when I got it decades ago and was meant to go behind the sofa. I don't like that orange sofa table at all, but I've kept it because it's handy for storing things on in my "storage" bedroom. Now I'm glad I kept it! I'm going to try to copy what she did and maybe I'll end up with a pretty hallway table!

Those legs are so unique! I love them. My Dad used to refinish furniture as a hobby. He would have sat under the shade tree in the back yard and sanded all four legs by hand. He enjoyed the process as much as the end product. He had way more patience than I do.

The Color Is Nice. It Gives the piece some Depth. And the Black Paint was Great Solution on that Plastic Strip. I'm Still wrapping My Brain around the Fact that 1980's Furniture is Making a Comeback.

I have the exact same table that I bought new in the 1990's. A few years ago I flipped it for a spare bedroom with some funky colors. Totally different outcomes, but definitely a worthwhile flip. (Yours is much better!) 🙂

As always love watching your videos and to see the “what’s next” love the process of a paint wash and stain effect to get rid of that nasty yellow orange look. Then you pulled out the ebony black rub and buff and silly me began to question your process, but as always you knew exactly what you were doing and it looks amazing. I think this piece could easily find its way into a stylists collection to style up a new home etc.

I have the same tables in the garage. I did sell the coffee table some years ago, but I still have 2 end tables. Have been contemplating re-doing them. Mine are a white color, I guess you'd call it distressed. I like the color, I think it's the legs that bother me.

As always, I'm a simple woman. You post a video, I immediately have to watch it! I love the update you did on this piece! I remember we had a similar console table at one point in the early 90s when I was little and I never liked the very orange color of it, but mom loved it. If it'd looked like this, maybe we'd have kept it around longer!

Katie is always so much fun to watch! She’s smart, skilled & stylish! BTW, I’m old enough to know that this “orange” wood was all once the rage & I think I recall it as having been called “blonde.” (?) But Katie’s recreation of this piece is TERRIFIC !!! I love it! I want it, but have no place for it!!! Someone is getting a steal at her quoted price-she’s giving this away at that price!

Total improvement!! I wondered What you'd do with that yucky banding. I love the black. When hubby and I married 12 years ago, he had the entire 1980s living room en suite just like that: coffee table, lamp tables, console. I told him "The '80s called and they want their stuff back!" I lacked the vision to update all of it. I'm so glad to see that it can be done.

Very nice Katie. You totally nailed it. I painted my tv cabinet a black color and the top was so hard to get roller marks out. I used an inexpensive paint, to minimize it but it didn’t work. I’m going to live with it for a while. If I can’t take it I’m going to sand it down to a natural color🤦‍♀️
