I love seeing Zeb let Jack "work" on the projects. He is such a patient father! You rock, Zeb!

[@wickedgardentreasures3352]

I love that the kids are involved! Their fine motor skills will be on point! They are learning valuable skills. Good job, all!

[@Jennie285]

I love that hutch and dresser. Looks amazing. What a good idea not to take out the glass. It cleaned up well 👍

[@Lauras0801]

The hutch turned out great but I REALLY love the coffee and end tables!!!!

[@JamiRayVintage]

Thanks! I love them too!

[@miamisweets]

[@corigarland4744]

My rae dunn collection would look great in that hutch:)

[@emilymalcolm87]

I have recently bought a china cabinet which I plan to paint and it has lots of glass. Was going to ask if you tape off the glass but you answered my question. Love how the hutch turned out.

[@JamiRayVintage]

Sometimes we tape off the glass but this hutch had so many panes of glass it was faster to just scrape it off than it was to tape it off.

[@lisamarie6110]

LOVE it!!! I am on a quest for something similar, of course, farmhouse lol you guys are AMAZINGLY TALENTED and I love watching all your creations come to life so beautifully!

[@JamiRayVintage]

Thank you!

[@dawnruhl8405]

I did that back in 1997, but I made it a "dry sink" using crown moulding. When I went to sell my house, a couple said they would buy the house at asking price if I threw in the dry sink. SOLD!

[@TeresaGuerrero115]

I love that Spray gun! However I have to admit I wore out the first one I got after about a 1 year...lol!

[@tfox2309]

What would happen if you lightly coated the glass with some vegetable oil or Vaseline before painting. I've never tried it before, but it seems like it would aid in cleaning the windows afterward.

[@juliemarie1116]

Sweet videos

[@cameronashton6987]

Covering the glass with painter's tape and paper would have saved you the time of cleaning off the paint afterwards. Love the dresser repurposing idea.

[@baljeet50]

your son is soooo cute....love you guys, try to do something with stained glass if possible please

[@JamiRayVintage]

❤️❤️

[@ginamaria2579]

Could you make a kitchen island the same way the coffee & end tables are made ? I would come & get it 😊

[@JamiRayVintage]

Zeb says he could. He would add a trestle or shelf underneath to support the taller legs.

[@ginamaria2579]

Yay, we flooded out , & are building elsewhere out of the flood plain, so -called 500 hundred yr flood got us twice , our new build will be ready last. of week October .. we can talk about it soon 🤗 thanks so much ❤️

[@mrsd6allnatural]

I love it...train a child...

[@JamiRayVintage]

mrsd6allnatural we like them to work with us :)

[@susandavidson3610]

What kind of primer do you like ? I would have to tape off the glass. I HATE to clean glass !!!

[@JamiRayVintage]

When we were all through I wish we would have Usually it comes off easy. But thus time it was a pain. I like FCM High Bond that I sell on my website www.jamirayvintage.com or I use Kilz if its not a high traffic item.

[@celestefranco9002]

Hello I love these videos and your work is wonderful. I just hand some questions. How do you know what you need to strip and not strip? I noticed that in some videos you do sand it down, but in this one you didn’t sand the hutch down before adding the primer. Why was that exactly? Thank you!!

[@meme7591]

I would have loved to seen how you guys attached to talk to the dresser..how did you guys do that? What did you use?

[@JamiRayVintage]

It sits on top but there are metal straps in the back that keep the top from moving around. We usually don’t attach them until we sell it so it’s easier to move. 😊

[@meme7591]

@@JamiRayVintage sweet thanks for letting me know that that totally makes sense I hope you guys are having an awesome day can't wait to see your next video for the house

[@sunmoonstars2228]

This is great and easy to do, thank you ! What paint you are using? Can you use Anne Sloan chalk paint with a pistol?

[@JamiRayVintage]

I use Fairy Chalk Mother and Sweet Pickins Milk Paint Both I sell on my website www.jamirayvintage.com We have only sprayed Annie Sloan once and it ran a lot. So if you spray Annie just be careful and go slow.

[@shabbytwo1787]

LoVE the videos!!! I was wondering what do you use to treat furniture to kill aby bugs? So you dont get an infestation....

[@JamiRayVintage]

We haven’t had s problem with bugs much. If I see spider webs we spray the area with raid.

[@beingheath5743]

Hey guys! I can't remember which video you did but it was an earlier video...Jami you were staining cedar with a steel wool pad soaked in vinegar? What type of steel wool did you use and what kind of vinegar? Something else I wanted to throw out there to you and Zeb was about the video where you said some people had mentioned more videos of you alone and or Zeb alone painting...you two are the Dynamic Duo of DIY!!! Keep on doing what you guys are doing! I can honestly tell you that I've been trying to catch up on Netflix and Hulu but can't because I can't stop watching you guys work! You two are great teachers and though I'm new at this, watching you guys has been inspirational and informative...so to say the least, if what you are doing sparks nasty comments, just know you're doing something right.

[@JamiRayVintage]

Thanks! Good luck in your ventures! The steel wool we use is the fine 0000

[@pamelaallen6543]

I'm doing this as well, so I appreciate seeing it done. My problem is the veneer had to be removed from the top of the dresser and it is made of particle board. I have been trying all day to figure out what to put on this so it looks like wood. I'm painting it white so it doesn't have to be stain able. Any ideas?

[@JamiRayVintage]

You could plank the top with some pine or cedar. Have you seen our video on how to do that?

[@pamelaallen6543]

Do you think that 1/2 pine would look ok with the china cabinet on top? The top and bottom are not rustic looking.

[@kimberlydrake6676]

What kind of paint did you spray?

[@johndoyel8758]

Which milk paint that you have is the most white?

[@JamiRayVintage]

Flour Sack is the whitest color in milk paint that I carry.

[@noemifernandez4666]

Does the FCM primer or Kilz need to be diluted before using it in the sprayer?

[@JamiRayVintage]

We use 3 parts paint/primer to one part water when we thin the paint out for spraying. we use a water based kilz primer or FCM high bond.

[@homesteadingheather6155]

What kind/size of air compressor do you use?

[@JamiRayVintage]

We have a 60 gallon compressor. It does 10.2 CFM @ 90 PSI
