AMAZING RESTORATION of RARE VINTAGE 1930s WATERFALL DRESSER. Relaxing Furniture Restoration Video

[@ametrinefirepayne1219]

That's just WOW. thank you for sharing and taking the time to bring it back to such beauty. I can never understand how people can paint and then miss treat wooden furniture. It always upsets me when people abuse wooden furniture so badly. My Dad did restoration for a living and i have come to appreciate wooden furniture and in treating the wood respect the makers of them.

[@melindaostergren8115]

Because it’s not valuable to their aesthetic. This kind of furniture looks old and fusty to many people. Perhaps the man who used it in his garage already had a household full of furniture he, and presumably his wife, had. Different times, different styles Sometimes furniture and other pieces of things special to the elders are a burden.

[@FurnitureFlippingForProfit]

Hi Melinda. I think he had no clue how to restore it. Under the paint, it was in pretty bad shape. So, I give him a little credit for NOT just taking it to the landfill. At least he got some more use out of it until he was ready to pass it on to me!

[@FurnitureFlippingForProfit]

I agree Ametrinefire. I believe that people will begin to have an appreciation again of the beauty of wood grain and stained furniture. The pendulum will swing back...

[@lorrainewhitlock5377]

@@FurnitureFlippingForProfit truth is a beautiful job and I wish you could come to my house and fix mine. I have one in my bedroom and love it if even though it needs restoring

[@jeanettenorman7052]

I don't get painting beautiful wood either. Just don't get it?

[@norcaldata]

I’m speechless! And have to say a little emotional, this was a straight up rescue! And the patina on her looks like normal wear and tear not like she’d been abused for years. Thank you for this restoration ❤️❤️❤️

[@FurnitureFlippingForProfit]

Oh gee Desiree thanks so very much!!! I too was very emotional. I was so frustrated because I was afraid I would have to paint it!!! When I began to apply the stain, I could still see a few of the marks but the stain covered them beautifully. Well, 3 coats of the stain!

[@dianeadams9537]

OH, MY GOODNESS!!! THIS DRESSER RESTORATION IS SO BEAUTIFUL!!!!💖💖💖💖💖

[@holly5791]

That is absolutely stunning...now. I can't believe he put that primer on it. You really put the work into that piece and it shows! Nice job! 👍🙂

[@FurnitureFlippingForProfit]

I guess the primer coordinated with the color scheme in his garage. LOL! I was surprised how damaged it was under the primer.

[@XxIzhtarxX]

@@FurnitureFlippingForProfit good job, the only down for me was the part filled. Replacing it with new wood is better to me

[@gointothedogs4634]

thankfully I think the primer protected the top from damage from his tools and things. Beautiful job. I've had my eye on a waterfall dresser in a junk shop. This gives me some ideas.

[@tarrahbell4043]

Holy moly that is gorgeous!! A tool box, I think NOT!! Thank you for saving this piece, and appreciating it enough to bring it back to it’s natural beauty!!!

[@FurnitureFlippingForProfit]

You are so welcome! Thanks Tarrah!

[@Graceking76]

This is my favorite video so far! I fell in love with waterfall furniture when I was young because both of my grandmothers had waterfall bedrooms. I was excited when I saw the thumbnail because I knew what was going to be under that primer and I wasn’t disappointed. 😍 The veneer repair was very educational.

[@FurnitureFlippingForProfit]

Thanks for watching. Glad you liked it!!!

[@frelnc]

I would never imagined it would come out this nicely.

[@БелкаСтрелка-с1й]

Wow, unbelievable

[@FurnitureFlippingForProfit]

thank you!

[@rebecca4223]

Absolutely Amazing! The time and dedication and tenacity you put into this! Getting it a showroom status is unbelievable! Super major props! The gorgeous finish totally brings me back to happy memories of digging throw ma grams drawers for hidden treasures. Tin containers of colorful buttons, scraps of her fav fabric for patchwork, yarn, threads, ornaments, beads and bobbles. So many cherished times. Thank you for bringing those back to light. Like a comfort food visual memory. 🥰❤️

[@FurnitureFlippingForProfit]

Thanks a ton!

[@melanieeaton3344]

You are a miracle worker!!! Simply gorgeous!!! I have a waterfall dresser in my garage I have been staring at and working around for way too long. You have motivated me to work on it. Thank you. And thank you for doing these videos, you are extremely inspiring.

[@FurnitureFlippingForProfit]

Thanks Melanie. Take your time with the waterfall dresser and you will be rewarded!!!

[@Laura_Brock]

This restoration job is masterful. You were very patient and focused! I might have been tempted to give up after bleach application 3 or 4, but YOU persisted and got the desired result! What a beautiful piece.

[@FurnitureFlippingForProfit]

Thanks Laura. I am glad you appreciated how much work it was!

[@lonnarheaj]

The dresser is GORGEOUS!!! Thank you for sharing your techniques and the process of restoring this worthy piece. If furniture could talk, before you restored it this piece it was screaming in pain. Now is singing a beautiful happy song. 😄

[@FurnitureFlippingForProfit]

Thank you so much!

[@johnveglio4433]

Suggestion, use old paint buckets to put stripped paint and finishes in, when filled you can take it to a hazardous materials disposal place.👍👍

[@ashleyosborne6239]

I have no words other than I am BLOWN AWAY at your INCREDIBLE work!! First, the piece is STUNNINGLY GORGEOUS. You performed miracles with this one. The amount of damage, repairs and just mistreatment of it was overwhelming. Only to find yet another gem (also for almost free) with just a bit of hard work and determination. I was shocked when I saw that inlay in the trim too! Thank you for bringing her back to life and restoring her true beauty. You are truly a master at what you do.💜

[@FurnitureFlippingForProfit]

Thanks so much Ashley!!!!! I too was surprised that I was able to restore the finish. It would have been SO MUCH EASIER to just paint the body and stain the drawers. If I had painted it I knew that I would hear from my wonderful viewers that I did not try hard enough! LOL!!!! I do hear you (my viewers) and you all motivated me to push through! I am glad I did!

[@evitasdad]

Omg!!!! What a beautiful piece of furniture! I am so glad that it came to your hands. And that as a restorer, painting is not your only vision, as are some. Keep up the good work! Kindest Wishes from New Zealand.

[@FurnitureFlippingForProfit]

Thank you so much!

[@suzielozano470]

Oh my God the patience the skill that you have just replacing the damage veneer wow incredible

[@ЕленаКолесникова-х3г]

Это блестящая работа.У меня даже слов нет.Работа восхитительная.Браво мастера ❤❤❤❤❤

[@colleenkidwell5820]

Sooo glad you persevered with this piece. I guess the wood bleach you used did the trick.

[@FurnitureFlippingForProfit]

I have never used this wood bleach before. It is actually hard to find! Regular bleach would never have lightened it enough so I was glad that I had the Zinsser. The only place I could find it was Menards. I had to have it shipped to me.

[@donnaking102]

This is such a magnificent piece that your love & hard work show's. She was so abused and now restored to her beauty ❤️ Thank you for sharing 💕

[@FurnitureFlippingForProfit]

This was a LOT of work. I have never restored any piece that was so scratched up! I was amazed how great it turned out!

[@writerlisakaye]

Thank you, thank you, thank you! I'm generally not a fan of Art Deco design but I have a fond spot in my heart for these old waterfall dressers. My grandmother had one with the matching vanity and I have such fond memories. You did a beautiful job bringing this grand lady back to life.

[@FurnitureFlippingForProfit]

Thanks Lisa!

I wish I could find $1 dressers like that! Excellent work!

Thanks- keep looking and you will find one!

Absolutely beautiful!

[@PhyllisDavis-r7l]

As you were revealing more and more of the original art of the piece, I realized my parents bedroom suite is this type/style of work. My 92 year old Mother still uses. Bed frame, hi boy and vanity w tufted stool. I have always loved it. So glad it is in great shape and being used. Your work is a piece of ART!

[@marystoutenburgh3116]

Lovely job. I collect waterfall furniture. It all began with a dresser which belonged to my grandmother who passed when I was 9 months old. Now I’m 63 and have three bedrooms of waterfall furniture, a sewing machine cabinet, buffet, desk and living room end table. A few pieces need a little work, but for their age they are remarkable.

[@lightwarden.]

I actually said "Wow" aloud when I saw the finished piece. That is just beautiful and masterfully done. Because of you and a few other videos of yours I've been binging, I'm considering trying to flip. I'm out of the workforce right now due to recovering from leukemia. A side-hustle sure would help. Bless and thank you!
