Lots of woodworm here in France 🇫🇷, easily treated in furniture not so easy in the fabric of a house!! I actually think a few woodworm holes, adds to the character of the piece of furniture ( as long as he little critters have gone) xx

[@marilynreid9588]

I love everything you create. I just have to add, you’re the only person that I watch that adds flyspecks to age a piece. Is this a UK thing? In the US people get rid of the age of a piece, yet you embrace it! Your authenticity is so cool!

[@jeanine6492]

Hi, in Australia we have some woodworm mainly from importing antiques from o/s and more in the last 50 years. I think some gets in from countries that aren’t careful with quarantine and it’s missed somehow here - quarantine is very strict for commercial imports but not for individuals buying in the post I don’t think. Your trim was too big because the timber top had shrunk over time. Turned out amazingly!!!🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉

[@JonathonMarcMendesPaintedLove]

I think you might be right about the trim most definitely probably has shrunk 😊😊

[@bev5450]

Jonathon you have a calming voice when you explain things or just when your talking in general. Your podcast is comforting watching or listening to, and super educational. Jonathon, You are my go to channel. I just ordered 2 paint Inlays. I retired 2 years ago time to get going on my bucket list. And that would be creating to start.

Just have some pre op s to make and then a Guy who's excellent in Wood repairs.

[@valeriekane615]

This is beautiful! The technique was unbelievable, when you cut the inlay I thought what is he doing, couldn’t believe it. You put so much into this tutorial and it really looks it! I have never used a paint inlay and probably would not, unless I watched this video, just amazing how you maneuvered that inlay to fit the whole piece, and then the speckling was the top off and the aging!! Thank you so much, I don’t think you know what a marvelous teaching tutorial this was!!!

That turned out so well! I have the same paint Inlay, which I want to use on an old trunk I picked up. The trunk has some issues I need to deal with first. The metal sides are rusted, and parts of the original canvas have been pulled off. Whoever had it before me apparently stored horse tack in it while in a barn. Not sure if I should pull all the canvas off or just paint it as is after dealing with the rusted metal.
