I Transformed This Ugly Vanity Into A Gorgeous Piece of Furniture

I had NO idea what would be underneath this thick purple paint! I had to use SEVERAL methods to remove this paint, it was a mess! Chemical stripper, sanding, scraping... you name it, I tried it!
Once I FINALLY managed to strip all the paint and saw the wood underneath, I was inspired to give it a driftwood / beachy sort of treatment. It also allowed me to experiment a bit with Mr. Cornwall's Creative Colors natural pigments, which I blended into some Odie's Super Duper Everlasting Oil (and a touch of the Odie's Safer Solvent).
I used the colours Titanium and Up in Smoke, no specific recipe or amount; I was literally just experimenting with them. For the painted parts, I used Fusion Mineral Paint... a custom blend I created a while back... a light grey with a hint of green. I also added new hardware, and then used Fusion Mineral Paint's Liming Wax to lightly grey the wood AND the paint.
The resulting combination of all this is a beautiful beachy vibe, where the wood almost appears sun bleached, in a way. I LOVE how this turned out, but it's one of those projects that took much longer than expected.

I specialize in historical wood restoration & refinish for a living. Here's my tip: throw away all your liquid stripper! Get a Speed heater Cobra infrared paint stripper. Clean, a fraction of the time of traditional strippers and removes multiple layers of paint and/primer down to the bare wood in literally three to five seconds! Incredible tool. You do fantastic work, this tool will take you to another skill level

[@goldbergje]

I'm usually for restoring pieces to their original state, but this is a remarkable result. You modernized the finish, but retained the historic elegance of the piece. Wonderful work.

[@andreaandrea6716]

I’m not sure about it being a “historical” piece. It’s just some old furniture. Colorful paint can be great, but just painting the whole thing purple🫠. But it looks good.

[@andreaandrea6716]

This is so lovely. It is elegantly rustic without being "distressed". Thank you for not doing some "shabby chic" nonsense.

[@suburbanhomestead]

Now this is what I call an upgrade. It doesn’t fall into the purist trap of restorers who end up killing all the built up character of the piece, and also avoids being excessively on trend. It gains a respectable dignity that is modern and timeless. I can see it living on for decades blending into future trends without a problem, because it’s a piece of design. You let the piece speak to you and used the driftwood cues as inspiration. It paid off, and I’m sure the video response helped pay off the countless hours spent on it.

Thank you so so much for this! Everything I do with every single piece is subjective, understandably, but I really try to keep the majority of them neutral - not necessarily literally, as in colour, but moreso in overall design. I want my pieces to work in various decor situations and outlast short term fads and trends, to prolong the life of a piece. At least that’s the goal. :-)

On your final reveal, when you opened the drawer, the color and brightness of the woodgrain made me gasp! I backed up the video to look again. Your paint job on the drawer front did not bleed over the interior edge. The edges were crisp and clean. You are a superior craftswoman! I would consider highlighting this project as an often featured example of your amazing talent and skill. It's value in marketing and showcasing your talent will yield many times more for your investment than whatever you sold it for!

Just beautiful! I love what you did with Odie's Oil. I clearly see your driftwood inspiration. Even the hardware gives me strong coastal/nautical vibes- but elegant early mid-century ocean liner chic not beach bum bar kitsch. I hope this piece sold for a lot more than you were expecting. It is such a good look. I'd love to see a sequel where you recreate this finish on another piece someday, hopefully with less stripping and scraping required for your sake. You definitely transformed the purple monster into a sleek ocean treasure.

Ocean liner Art deco chic, yes, saw an art deco wardrobe in America for $600,and here in the uk at the time the wardrobe similar would be £40-£60 I was a little shocked.no idea about resale currently for art deco.I love it,but Mid 20th century seems to be the current fashion.

Yes, the "driftwood" feel really came through at the end. Excellent choice of hardware too. It was well worth the effort IMO. I'd be happy to live with that piece of furniture.

Thank you very much!

I love restoration. It's such a labor of love. My childreth had to endure getting all my projects bit decades later, they still have the pieces I did for them.

[@TranscendFurnitureGallery]

That furniture is made to last! Kudos to you for redoing them and saving them for your kids! 😊

[@janiskubat5855]

You did a stunning job on that transformation. It took my breath away.

[@TranscendFurnitureGallery]

I'm so glad you like how it turned out! 😊

Love how you saved this piece, I had an antique vanity that I used as a desk as a kid it had 1 coat of a very light pink my mother decided to give it a face lift & painted it with thick old leftover redwood paint 😭 that was used on the interior of our home. I hope someone like you came across her & saved her 😊 thanks for sharing your skills 💕

Perfect marriage of wood and paint. Wonderful colours. Very sleek.

I like the purple, but I would never have painted the piece that color. I love how it turned out! Excellent job, as always. 👍😉🤗

[@TranscendFurnitureGallery]

I have no issue with the purple at all, to each their own. It was the layers upon layers upon layers that blew my mind. Thank you so much for watching!

Whoa! that was a difficult piece to restore. You did a great job of it considering the paint/guff that was on it before. Back in the early 70's, l had a chest of drawers that l painted with white base coat as a protection. Paints were not as good then as they are now and we were limited too. I took the myrtle chest of drawers to a professional many years later to have it reversed. Boy did he curse me! When he'd finished it was really good but l paid dearly to have the job done. Your work is the best l've ever seen. I just love the way you vacuum it all over. Thanks for the video. Now l will watch another of yours to satisfy myself.

Thanks again for watching Janice and the always kind words!

Gorgeous renewal. I like how the driftwood theme came out.

[@TranscendFurnitureGallery]

Thanks so much! 🙂

Thank you for showing that sometimes it just takes far more time and effort than you thought it might. I'm a newbie, and trying not to feel defeated by how long it can take to prep the piece. This came out so beautiful!

[@TranscendFurnitureGallery]

It absolutely can take a long time. My videos are edited down but this piece took 2 and a half days in total, likely a total of 15 solid working hours. It's a lot of work but so worth it. Kudos to you for starting!

[@ceramista28]

You've worked an absolute miracle. It's just so very special.

[@TranscendFurnitureGallery]

Thank you so much!! 😊

[@markbryan9989]

Stunning. “As you go” turns out to be a great guide.
