Antique Dresser DIY Makeover BEFORE & AFTER

[@MadeleineOlivia]

This video was meant to go live last night and I was so deep in the finishing touches to our kitchen and moving back in I totally forgot! Plus it was Alex and my 11 year anniversary! So here is the dresser makeover a day late! Enjoy ❤️❤️❤️

[@poorni28489]

Congratulations ❤️

[@cathylynnpietranton]

Congratulations you too❤

Happy anniversary! 😘

happy anniversary to you both🥰

Happy Anniversary!

[@revonda5204]

I'm thrilled to hear someone say they don't like grey and want something warm! ❤❤❤. Living in the US, its seems everything is grey. I think one of the reasons I fell in love with British interior design years ago was that was it is mostly warm colors. Your dresser is gorgeous. I've had that style pulls and knobs on my cabinets for years. We have great taste!! 😘

[@davidthescottishvegan]

I don't like Grey because it's a depressing colour but warm colours brighten up the home and help cheer you up especially on days when the weather is rainy & cloudy and there's no sun.

[@CindyCB78]

So nice and refreshing to see something changed from washed out grey into a lovely warm colour for once!

[@MadeleineOlivia]

I’m not a fan of grey at all! Greens, blues, terracotta, browns and yellows for me please!

[@CindyCB78]

@@MadeleineOlivia Same! I don’t really follow trends anyway and pick what I like but I will be glad to see the back of the grey obsession for sure.

[@Motherhubbard170]

@@CindyCB78 the worst possible colour for a miserable year of masks etc is grey, we're already miserable enough, and colour and beauty definitely lift the spirit,

[@davidthescottishvegan]

@@Motherhubbard170 100% agree that is why I like red, orange, yellow, green, brown. The colours I don't like are black and white and since grey is a combination of that it's on the list of the colours I hate.

[@CindyCB78]

[@misslettie2089]

I still can’t get over those windows! It’s all looking gorgeous Maddie! I can’t wait to see it all together👏🏾👏🏾😍

[@MadeleineOlivia]

Me neither they’ve transformed the place! Thank you!

[@miss_xenia_]

I love that the dresser has colour but also natural wood to break it up. And the way it fits into the kitchen so perfectly is incredibly satisfying. Glad it’s all coming together after so much work and time spent on it all 🙌

[@BThirstyPretzel]

The dresser turned out beautifully! I love that you did it all yourself. Happy anniversary to you and Alex!

[@LittleKagsx]

The Kitchen is coming along beautifully - it looks absolutely stunning Maddie! You have such as good eye for colour, I always feel so motivated after watching your videos - and I must not forget - Happy World Vegan Day everyone !!!

[@denisetrafford4436]

Love the dresser , will look great at Christmas time . ❤️❤️ Your kitchen will be looking wonderful 😊

[@MadeleineOlivia]

Ahh I can’t wait for Christmas in this kitchen

[@cece3381]

Gorgeous, I love greens, so warm! Looks like a different piece of furniture from the grey and the old glass handles.

[@MadeleineOlivia]

Doesn’t it!

[@alisondoughty2194]

Your kitchen is looking lovelier each time you do a post .It will be so pretty at all times but especially at Christmas.I can sense your excitement. Lovely 🎉

[@MadeleineOlivia]

Aww thank you so much! I can’t wait for Christmas in this kitchen!

[@MewMew0077]

Describing the shape of the design on the top of dresser as "beep beep" gave me a good laugh lol. It looks so beautiful when it's finished!

[@Adi-tt5ox]

I can't believe how well the handles match that shade of green!!! It was totally meant to be :) I love this makeover so much!! I'm glad your kitchen is finally coming together (and in time for holiday recipe videos!!!) it's been so fun watching the process!

[@hannahl610]

The other trick to get paint off hinges is put them in boiling water. Once the metal gets hot the paint will start to peel and you can get it off with a scraper or similar

[@MadeleineOlivia]

Great tip!

[@jennyjohnson9012]

Hi Madeleine, I think the colour is just beautiful!! So glad you're seeing the light at the end of the tunnel. When I lived in London (I'm in the borders of Scotland now) my kitchen took over 3 months. I had my freezer in the sitting room and cooked on a camping stove and microwave. I was so glad to get my kitchen back.....then I had to move lol.

[@elliecbron]

Gorgeous transformation! Amazing what a difference a coat of paint & nice finishes can do

[@dakotaovdan]

Love a sage green, so relaxing

[@MadeleineOlivia]

It’s so relaxing you’re right!

[@lynndixonsilva9961]

Turned out great! You're really thorough on your projects and they look so much better when you're done .... good job!

[@andreabrown6838]

Oh my goodness the dresser looks stunning 💚 so much better than the boring grey. Kitchen is looking fabulous x

[@maleahmichelle2472]

The brass handles look lovely with that wood counter! Really pops!

[@MadeleineOlivia]

Thank you!

[@autumnrain7918]

How beautiful! I haven't been on KZbin much these past couple of months, so seeing all the progress has been a real treat! I absolutely LOVE the way the cabinet turned out! If I may make a suggestion (and please, feel free to ignore it if it's not something you would even think about! I know my eyes can be fussy!) The knobs on the lower cabinet area of your hutch, there is one that is one the left side of the cabinet, and there are two that are on the right that are side by side. I noticed the knob on the right is darker than the other two. If you switch the far left knob with the far right knob, then it wont be as noticeable a difference, since they wont be side by side. Just an idea, and again, feel free to ignore it! Anyway, I'm really looking forward to playing catch up on all your amazing progress, and seeing some new recipe videos in the future! Sending lots of love!

[@luciep09]

That colour looks so nice! Love the handles too.

[@beatricemarsilius5585]

Then you are finished just in time for Christmas! How perfect is that???

[@danielleravitch]

The hutch definitely pops after adding the gold handles, love it!

[@MadeleineOlivia]

I am so happy with the gold touches! Thanks!

[@YvonneBretoniere]

Yes the kitchen is much lighter it looks great,My wooden furniture is chippy,aged just how i like it sometimes i leave woodenchairs outside for years so you get a very old faded look.The color on the dresser is super.I have painted a cute little stool a Sage Green.Last week found a side board on the pavement with lovely detail,old and chippy need some repairs but wow what a find and then ofcourse we will paint it.Have a good week.!!!!!!!!

[@SabahFakhouryTruthseeker]

That 2nd coat brightened the color and made it look better. Congrats on a job well done and nearly complete kitchen

[@AnnaKatharina_co]

I love the colourand can't wait for the final kitchen tour

[@softmeadowland3523]

Amazing colour ! 🤩 I can't wait to see your full house renovated !

[@glynnL]

Could immediately see how much brighter it was in there right from the first shot. I love a bright kitchen. I did some reno work for my mother recently, but we picked out a colour that we didn’t love one the wall. I ended up mixing my own by adding some white paint. Thankfully it worked out, and she loves the new hue. If only my other projects would turn out that way!

[@candaces3959]

The dresser looks beautiful. Love the color and the knobs and pulls! Well done!

[@lindachapman9765]

The dresser looks amazing i love the colour and it blends beautifully with the kitchen xx

[@deannaLbeasley]

It came out great. I'd definitely leave it in the kitchen.. I don't think it looks to busy with all the built-in cabinets. Can't wait to see it all finished.

[@miriamslack4086]

Just a beautiful kitchen reno!!! Love it!! Well done!!

[@MadeleineOlivia]

Thanks so much!

[@Gaynorrandz]

Oh wow Madeleine is looks incredible, I love that green too. It’s such a lovely colour green and always (to me) makes a old home look homely. You’ve done so well in this kitchen and I can’t wait to see the finished result and to enjoy seeing you getting back to cooking again in this beautiful space. 😍😍

[@annieg.678]

I had a large empty area in our kitchen and was so lost on what to do! I got an antique hutch on Facebook marketplace for $100! And it's going to look amazing I can't wait

[@carrierothamel6805]

The dresser turned out gorgeous....well done Madeleine .......

[@jacquim8907]

I think lick paint is the best I've used and that colour on the dresser is absolutely just right

[@MadeleineOlivia]

I agree best I’ve used!

[@tracyfarebrother2018]

Loved this it looks amazing glad u left it with all its blemishes so lovely 2 use the old handles xxx

[@michaelmercurio2312]

Thank you! Can’t wait to share with you

[@sherryhudson9075]

Your cupboard turned out so perfect!

[@annwilliams9214]

I just LOVE the dresser. The paint color and replacement hardware are perfect. Totally meant to be that space. I would be in love with it too. It will look amazing with Christmas decor next month. BTW like the shorter hair. It's a good length.

[@jenwylie4093]

Beautiful! I can't wait to see your kitchen too! I noticed the OCD detail of the screws going the same way. I would have never noticed something like that, except my husband makes sure all of the screws are facing the same way on things. :-)

[@nancyesposito1020]

It looks amazing now! Gorgeous color!

[@rebeccadurston2973]

It looks beautiful! When you showed it without the top shelving part I though it would look really pretty as just the bottom half with a big mirror on the wall above it if you don't end up using it in the kitchen 🧡

Brilliant. Maddie the dress turned out beautifully love the color great job👍👍❤

Another fantastic video from Madeleine and well done job on the dresser. Glad you didn't keep it grey. Love 🥰 the video and love 💕❤Madeleine & Alex.

[@MadeleineOlivia]

Thanks so much!

[@unnamedxx]

Another hack for getting paint off hinges and such is to just boil them in some hot water for a little bit and the paint should peel right off when the metal gets hot. Obviously use caution when dealing with hot metal.

[@sarahkelly473]

I love grey if there’s different textures and other warm colours with it. But I’m sick of the sterile grey and white decor. Lots of my house is grey, but we’ll probably only live here another few years so I want to keep it fairly neutral. I’m going to paint my kitchen like a sage green though ❤️

[@Magni2109]

how satisfying to see this dresser in green instead of grey. I do however agree it might be a great idea moving it to the other side of the wall....maybe switching it with the piano ;-) this way it's not a room full of cupboards

[@rachelspoon4741]

What a fab result!! Definitely can see the room so much brighter with all the changes you both have made. Its so rewarding to see the finished look. Happy 11th Anniversary to you and Alex ^_^
