[@diysbydar]

Absolutely a work of by gone wooden art brought back to its glory. Great vaneer work, and no I couldn't see the patches or your hand painting. It was perfect. Well done.

[@coloredcaboosecreations]

Thank you my fellow artist that means a lot 💜

[@Flippingdrawers]

That was some serious work you did Melanie ! impressed with your repairs and blending. Very nice work 👌🏼

[@coloredcaboosecreations]

Thank you so much Jay and thank you again for putting it together. Even though it was challenging I had a a lot of fun and this project definitely forced me to learn some new skills.

[@giseleafecheoficial]

I am from Brazil and this dresser design is inspired in some buildings designed by Niemayer, for Brasilia, our 1960’s capital. I was anxious to see the result. Even the knobs were inspired by this architecture, this is mind blowing.

[@coloredcaboosecreations]

How cool is that! There is definitely something magnetic about this style, I fell in love with it before even knowing what it was. Im going to look up some photos of your buildings thanks for sharing .

[@randbodily3058]

I have 2 of these dressers, great job.

[@coloredcaboosecreations]

You can send them my way please lol.

[@kimberlyakers5923]

amazing job

[@betsymcgovern3267]

great job!

[@2Cambell]

If you don't win, I'll be shocked and disappointed! Blending and painting to match is a true skill!!! Thank you for the Wenol tip and adding the panther for your finish! I inherited one of those panthers! ❤❤❤

[@DashnerDesignRestoration]

Wow, that’s an amazing transformation!

[@coloredcaboosecreations]

That means a lot thank you so much!

[@ReconstructingEmily]

I am so glad this dresser broyhill ended up in your hands. Seriously amazing work Melanie! I am going to need to try out your hardware hack now - thank you for sharing! ❤

[@coloredcaboosecreations]

Thanks Emily it was only a year in the making 😂. I loved your video so much! Let me know what you think of that hardware hack.

[@makeitmakesense7216]

Wow this one took my breath away

[@mousiebrown1747]

You’ve got a great eye to recognize the delightful original form and you’ve got courage to take on the restoration. You’ve saved a true treasure! Lovely. 🥰

[@coloredcaboosecreations]

Thank you very much!

[@DavidBarwick-hb7eo]

I have never seen this Brazillia furniture before. Love it.

[@coloredcaboosecreations]

Yes something about the design, it’s captivating isn’t it?

[@tylerroads9209]

I know this is a small thing, but I love how nice you were about the dresser's before design. Whether it's to our tastes or not, a lot of furniture restorations like this were someone's art before you purchased it, and it's not nice to shit on someone's art. Your kindness about it earned you a subscriber :]

[@coloredcaboosecreations]

💚

[@macdaddyjill]

I've been watching all the MCM challenge videos and this by far is the best! It was the most challenging to restore and it came out so beautiful 😍

[@coloredcaboosecreations]

Thank you so much!

[@Sofia-zp6qp]

Amazing work as always 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🙌🙌

[@coloredcaboosecreations]

Thanks 🔥

[@robertgriffith9703]

It came out Great! Considering how Many Problems it had. I can see why so many people passed on Restoring this piece. You were Up for the Challenge! You took it from Yahoo Moo back to the Sophisticated Beauty it Truly is! And Yes, I could hear the Frustration in your Voice!

[@coloredcaboosecreations]

Yahoo Moo 😂 I like that. Thank you so much for watching 💚

[@IlMakerstauratore]

It came out very well. The wood grains you made by hand are beautiful👌

[@coloredcaboosecreations]

Thank you Luca that means a lot!

[@traceyspad01]

I was not convinced this would be saved..... you did an awesome job. Im impressed ❤

[@coloredcaboosecreations]

Thank you! 😊

[@Restomaniac]

A very impressive result, dear Melanie. I wish I was as good with colors as you are. I always envy talented people. Great job 👏👏👏

[@coloredcaboosecreations]

Thank you so much Ismail 💚

[@josephinehogg3629]

A very beautiful restoration or a late 1960's sideboard. Michael Angelo's story "The Agony and the Ecstasy" came to mind! You are my 11th viewing in the MCM challenge and you have my vote for 2nd best in all, so far. Congratulations and well done 👍👏

[@coloredcaboosecreations]

Thank you so much for watching 💚

[@monicalundy4400]

You brought this piece back to it’s original beauty.

[@rachealsmith5138]

That piece turned out wonderful! ❤😊 A lot of hard work, you made it look so beautiful!😊😊

[@coloredcaboosecreations]

💚

[@emmavik-fredriksson640]

Wow! That is an amazing transformation! I didn't think you would be able to fix what this poor patient had endured. I'm absolutely with you that it's up the owner of a piece to do what they want, but cowhide!? 😂😂. I'm very impressed, well done 👏

[@coloredcaboosecreations]

Hey I’ll give points for creativity on cowhide but we definitely had entirely different visions 🤣. Thank you so much for watching 💚

[@MayfieldRestorations]

Superb work Melanie. What a transformation 😳❤️❤️

[@coloredcaboosecreations]

Thank you David !

[@jennymartinez4597]

This is an excellent restoration. That paint & faux cow hide Ugh! But you gave this abused elegant, unusual piece of mid century furniture a chance to shine in loveliness once again. Beautiful finish & you’re right about the extra shine on the. Hardware. Very nice tip! Blessings from Dozer Butter Bean & me in Garden Ridge TX

[@songs8619]

Gorgeous result! Did you consider colouring the trim on the top drawers something contrasting just to accent it? And thank you for the excellent tip for the brass hardware. 👍

[@antiquesrestoration3874]

Wow! Just wow! This restoration warmed my heart. I am glad to learn about your trick with restoring the hardware. What a wonderful transformation.

[@coloredcaboosecreations]

Hey it’s nice seeing you here 💚 Glad you enjoyed it!

[@Restorology]

Everything in this video is fantastic! Lots of work. What will you do with it? 🍸 BTW, I like your shoes!

[@coloredcaboosecreations]

Thank you very much Matt I really enjoyed this collaboration and also getting to know so many new fabulous refinishers. Hope we can all do it again soon! Ha ha Converse are the best, but you already knew that lol.

[@Restorology]

@@coloredcaboosecreations Heck yes I do. Three different colors of Converse here. Well two actually, my dog ate one of the pair I wore in my video. 😡

[@jocefh]

What a transformation!! Great job!

[@coloredcaboosecreations]

Thanks so much! 😊

[@chandarussell]

Yikes. That was a huge amount of work but wow, you knocked it out of the park. Well done.

[@coloredcaboosecreations]

Thank you 💚

[@yvonnebooker8864]

Difficult piece and you did an amazing restoration 👏🏻🌟

[@diytainment]

What an amazing video filled with gems along the way! That barkeepers friend trick had me like 🤯 wish I knew that 5-10 projects ago!😂

[@coloredcaboosecreations]

Yay I’m so glad you liked it! It was a lot of work but needed to get out of my garage lol . Hope that hack works well for you.

[@lilybart9166]

Trena from John's furniture and AT Restoration are masters at veneer and painting. It is great to see new restorers mastering these repairs. Beautiful job.

[@coloredcaboosecreations]

Wow, if you’re comparing me with those two masters I’m honored 🥹.

[@lyndanorton6705]

Gorgeous!!! You did an amazing job! That piece was so horrible! Great work, I love it.

[@coloredcaboosecreations]

Thank you so much!

[@sissymarie2912]

You definitely chose the most difficult piece. You really turned it around. Amazing work ❤

[@ldianehigley3287]

Turned out lovely! Love watching you work, you have a lot of great ideas thinking out of the box, and you fixed the problem areas so well. Returned this piece of furniture to it's former grace and glory!

[@coloredcaboosecreations]

Thanks for coming back. My goal is to bring more videos.

[@rachelannemcloud6754]

Unbelievable! I’m new to furniture refinishing, but after three pieces I’m hooked. I’m enrolled in “KZbin University” and I’m learning a TON from you! Thanks so much!!

[@ReginaPortoBarreto]

Obrigada por restaurar esse móvel que se inspira na arquitetura modernista da capital do Brasil, Brasília. Parabéns!

[@coloredcaboosecreations]

Thanks for watching 💚

[@gregpendrey6711]

Brah-Zee-Lee-Aah 😎 Your care of the hardware is the most masterful, no comparison! Bravo ❤

[@coloredcaboosecreations]

Wow, thanks!

[@kandipiatkowski8589]

Awesome finished product. I have a couple of pieces of childhood furniture in need of restoration, but they are both being used, so it has been a challenge....not to mention I have never refinished a furniture piece, except when i painted a cabinet white when i was 8.

[@coloredcaboosecreations]

Never too late to start

[@lindam4006]

Beautiful job as always. That dresser is so unique. And possibly restored more beautifully than its original glory. After watching Matt (Restorology) restore & reyle his childhood dresser, I had to give him my blue ribbon vote. However my favorite is that chair restored to MCM. You are all so brilliant. Thank you for sharing. I hope you all benefit immensely from taking on this challenge.

[@coloredcaboosecreations]

Thank you so much! My vote is for that chair as well. I could not look away the entire video it was fabulous!

[@wendybell422]

Wow that looks amazing doesn't look like the same piece of furniture 😊

[@Laura-to2kz]

WOW girlfriend! Absolutely stunning!!! Great restoration!!!

[@paulabodine5317]

This piece turned out super nice!

[@mkemp5983]

That came out great! i wasn’t too sure about the repairs there for a minute, but they looked good!!

[@traceyspad01]

Even with the imperfections, it came out beautifully. It was a beast of a project, but you persevered ❤🎉

[@Saragarciatexasusa]

Your work is phenomenal-I’m glad I discovered you on KZbin!

[@GreenWitch1]

I didn’t hold out much hope for that after you revealed the wood, but you did an amazing job of repairing lots of damage. Kudos!

[@coloredcaboosecreations]

You and me both!

[@lulunz6809]

The MCM Challenge brought me here. What amazing work! You worked so hard and I thought you were going to give up and paint it for a minute there. I was super impressed with how you managed to finally blend in the repairs. It turned out to be something to be proud of. You saved it. Well done!

[@coloredcaboosecreations]

Thank you so much!

[@elainestokes7822]

Excellent work, turned out lovely!

[@leisongivangomo4478]

[@mlm7598]

Beautifully done..........so so very attractive. Excellent! I can hear in your voice how you enjoy doing the refurbishing. What an amazing piece of furniture.

[@flipitnation]

Excellent restoration Melanie, very impressive! I loved the bar keepers tip, I will give that a go. Your repairs are very good, you would never know! Amazing work :)

[@coloredcaboosecreations]

Thank you very much Cole 🙏 I was just telling my husband about your video and the weaving. He reminded me about the Vintage Franco Albini rocking horse I have that needs refinishing. The seat would also need to be woven. Thanks for watching.

[@maggieauterman3406]

I'm totally impressed by your talent. The piece was hideous and now it's absolutely beautiful. Great job.

[@arlenekerr1198]

Good to see you again! Beautiful job!

[@coloredcaboosecreations]

Thank you!

[@hilarykirkby4771]

You have worked a miracle! Igt is still not piece of furniture I would want, but somebody will love it forever, if not me..............

[@VintageAndPainted]

Ahhhh Mel so good to hear and see you and your artistry. Gurl you never disappoint and this piece 😍😍 I was not surprised by the after but at the same time GURL!!! My jaw was on the floor!

[@coloredcaboosecreations]

🤗 Hey Sarah! So glad you enjoyed it but truthfully this one had me sweating bricks lol. I had to learn so many new techniques on the fly and wing others. Ha Ha but that's just what we do right 😆 . BTW I loved your last video and can't wait till part 3

[@shellydehart8217]

Well done!! You do magical work. I’m so impressed. I’ve stripped many pieces of furniture but I’ve never tackled veneer n you made it look so easy. And fixing those small missing pieces, kudos to you. I appreciate you explaining what you were doing n what you used, I’m just blown away. This piece had to take days n days to conquer yet you continue to go on. I’m not a big on mid century furniture ( like my antiques) but this piece turned out beautiful. Thank you for sharing your tips on cleaning brass. Have to admit you’re at my top of the list. ♥️♥️♥️😊👍👍👍👏👏👏🌟

[@coloredcaboosecreations]

So many kind words thank you very much! Yes, it took a while but I’m just happy you were able to get something out of this video 💚

[@shellydehart8217]
