I've been wanting to do a linen inspired furniture look on the channel for a while now and I finally found the perfect piece for it. I asked over in my instagram stories whether I should do a faux finish technique using paint OR try to cover a piece of furniture with actual fabric and the results were split right down the middle. So... in this video I'm taking a stab at flipping this dresser by wrapping it in linen fabric!

This is totally different! You did a beautiful job on this. The weave of the fabric is straight and your edges are crisp and clean. This opens up so many possibilities for changing the look of case goods! 🌸

[@scottbyran8459]

i appreciate you for your support and comments i just create a little time to appreciate some of my great fans.how is your family and work??

[@honeykat1]

Congratulations on your new pup!! From the brief snippet, it looks like an older dog? I'm so happy to see older dogs being adopted: there are so many that need good homes, and they bring just as much pleasure as babies (without as much of the short-bladder retention periods and the chew-everything phases as babies, in case anyone else is looking for something to convince them to adopt?). I hope you'll all have a long and happy life together!!! And of course, as always, the furniture piece turned out well! That's the first time I've seen this technique.

[@salvagedbykscott]

She’s only a year old and still a bit of a trouble maker but we’re over the moon in love with her and happy to have saved her.

[@chrisposin9079]

Katie I've been wrapping furniture, walls, wainscoting and doors with fabric for years. I use liquid clothing starch, which is as gluey as you can get! Some of it has been for years. If you'd like more information please get in touch. I'd love to give you the information. I love your work, in fit, I'm about to "unfabric" two solid maple dressers and try to recreated your paint dipped/washed technique on dressers that have had fabric on for 12 years!

[@pamelap.123]

Chris Posin Thanks for that info-I saw starch/ fabric method used on wainscoting years ago and always wondered if it would work on furniture that gets "handled" a lot.

[@chrisposin9079]

@@pamelap.123 it does, although I put glass on the tops for added protection.

[@trudyeby464]

I put fabric on my foyer walls with starch and it is gorgeous! Plus cheaper and easier than wallpaper.

[@bettinabarry8423]

Liquid starch is the way to go!

[@yaninajezek7744]

Chris, where would I find liquid clothing starch? I'm in Canada. Thanks.

[@roshawndalight7470]

Wow! This is a very unique approach to flipping! Gives me a few ideas for some projects. Thanks for trying out new things and sharing with us. Thank you for being amazing Katie! 💖💖💖

[@salvagedbykscott]

Thank you so much for coming on these adventures with me!

[@peteandlori5081]

Oh my gosh, love, love, love this piece! I'm so glad you were brave enough to try something new. Good inspiration for the rest of us!💖

[@2Cambell]

Oh my goodness, thank you for doing this!!! 💖 My Mom was really into sewing, she passed away this year (Cancer, not Covid) and she left us with all kinds of fabric. Much of it will go into quilts and clothing, but we have large enough pieces to cover end tables, bedside tables, make headboards and cover a couple of dressers. My nieces really need their stuff redone...One niece has already claimed the pinstripe (It's subtle, and Mom was a businesswoman, but why did she have so much of it??? Lol). I may even use some of the fancy fabric to cover the inside and/or outside of the wood treasure boxes that I make out of my husband's project scraps. Congratulations on getting Winnie!!! She is gorgeous!!! 😍 We definitely look forward to seeing her again!!!

[@greeneyedlady7290]

Awwwwwww your new puppy is cute! And the fabric-covered chest looks great!

[@ChristinaMuscari]

This is really cool! So inspired. And I love Hello Fresh, too!

[@salvagedbykscott]

So yummy 🤤

[@suecox2308]

Hi Winnie! That piece looks amazing--I may have to try this technique.

[@Boomerinthewild62]

It's always exciting to see something new like that. Thanks for sharing 😃

[@velmacoffey3763]

Wow. A unique look for sure. Great job. Very creative!!

[@suecrandell1659]

The dresser looks polished and classy. Way to go!

[@snapdash777]

Hi Katie! Thank you for taking us along on while you are learning. I agree, this is a great result for your first go. Kudos!

[@lesleywatkins1172]

What a fabulous idea to cover this in fabric! Well done you for bringing this to us to try!

[@AshleyRania]

Lovely! The texture brings the piece to life! So mod!

[@HensonHomeFurnishings]

Very cute and creative, Katie! Nice job!

[@judyflynn1604]

Wow! It’s a winner, Katie!👍🏼😍

[@gloriafields4328]

I like it Katie. It's definitely different and unusual piece. Thanks for the great idea for a future project !!

[@TopGunSports]

This video is worth watching again!

[@kathybellamy5207]

I think that turned out GREAT! Nice work and thanks for sharing.

[@shelleysteart6373]

I love this Katie. So clever!

[@riverunner9978]

It’s a beautiful piece. You’ve did a gorgeous job on it! Awesome!

[@phenmom]

You have so much patience!! But it all paid off cuz this turned out AMAZING! I love linen and love this as an option for a statement peiece in my bedroom or living room! Great job! Thanks for sharing

[@1myedwards]

Katie, that looks amazing!!

[@christinefeucht8668]

Great job. Love the texture and color you chose

[@rubyduck3]

I love the look. I have a small sewing desk that needs a makeover and I have a lot of fabric I have been saving for various projects. Thanks for showing us this method

[@donnapalaussie19]

Wow I love it! Very cool and a different twist to upscaling. 🥰

[@cj3cats]

Stunning! I love the fabric you chose for this cabinet! And thanks for showing your "mistake" & the solution as well. It does make me rethink an old cabinet I inherited from my mom. Thank you for your venture into the new technique!

[@judieweisenfeld6110]

As always, your creativeness abounds!

[@karebieringer7003]

Love your willingness to try new things. I've never seen this done before!

[@tracyfox466]

This looks great as always Katy! Everything you do turns out beautiful!😍👍🏻 This is such a cool technique. Really love this!!❤️

[@dawngaudreau4786]

Wow this turned out very nice! I would have never thought of putting material on a dresser.

[@meredithmorgan8480]

I love this as an alternative to the caning craze. Still get a natural fiber texture, but much more interesting and less common. I’m going to keep my eyes peeled for a way to work this into my space!

[@anaperez-zo5vv]

It's really a original idea wrapping up the pieces of furniture. Besides you can combine different fabrics and getting amazing results.

[@susanvanduyn2811]

Katie you are so brave! What a project.

[@perlaargyle9343]

So cool Katie !! You make it look so easy 😉

[@christinechin1909]

The finished piece gave me goosebumps! Wow - a whole other dimension! 😊

[@carrieh922]

It’s so sophisticated! I love it 🥰

[@paulaheuser5200]

So much fun! Great idea!

[@dianesmith9512]

Stunning! I love it!

[@susanpassfield4135]

[@scottbyran8459]

i appreciate you for your support and comments i just create a little time to appreciate some of my great fans.how is your family and work??

[@louanneross6410]

Love it Katie and give you 👍 for tackling this. Fabric choice is really nice with great texture. Perfect is just a goal we chase but trying something new and outside our comfort zone is inspiring and that what you do. Great job.

[@salvagedbykscott]

You’ll never know what’s possible if you don’t jump in a try it!

[@ChicAntiquebyHolly]

This is so incredibly cool Katie!!!

[@FaithfullyShee]

I have never seen such a thing. This is really cool.You did amazing! Thank You.

[@ashleyrobinson5950]

So good 😊 I love it! So Textured

[@shirleylipps6360]

The dresser turned out awesome!!! Very creative. The linen type fabric was perfect. Makes me want to try this. Very cozy style now.

[@Patricia-cz4or]

I love it Katie !

[@ArtemisToo]

Love Winnie's eye-liner -- sets off who two-tone eyes beautifully!

[@shawnrobertson9618]

Super cool new technique!

[@debraneria4242]

Yu are Brilliant Katy ... Absolutely AMAZING ...this Dresser Is AWESOME...talk about being a Trend setter And Talk about Bringing Texture to any Room....I can Totally see this piece Next to an oversized comfy corner chair for Some good reading and a cup of That Pumpkin spice latte! I just loved this idea and look👍🥰

[@bluecurlygirl]

It turned out beautiful. Well done.

[@jill552]

Nice inspiration. I’ve been wanting to try covering furniture with textured fabric.

[@kayhenry6293]

Wow! That’s amazing! I would have never tried that.

[@borntonosh]

OMG Katie. I have been watching your videos to get ideas to refinish this exact same dresser that was my grandmother's. I painted it dark purple as a teenager, 50 years ago, but stripped it about 40 years ago. It probably won't be fabric covered but I do love the look.

[@cherylwine6003]

That looks really cool, and I like how it could fit in with a variety of styles- farmhouse, contemporary, or traditional. I think it could mesh with them all. Thank you for sharing this technique!

[@karenharden6018]

From SC USA....Our Habitat has auctions...I hope your Habitat does too. People silently bid on the items throughout a week or so and then a few Saturdays a month they hold the live auctions.....hope your items bring big bucks for our jointly loved charity. So proud you are able to do this. Keep up the good work.

[@anitagonzales439]

I never would have thought of this ! But it still turned out pretty darn good!👍

[@gigireddick3239]

Wow!! Turned out so grgeous!! You inspire and dazzle us again. I would to try this on some nightstands or bedside tables for the bedroom!! I love your creativity, talent and inspiration. Love the new pup too...Winnie!! 🙂😊🙌🏽👍🏾🐕🐾🐕🙌🏽

[@toni5810]

I never would have thought furniture could be covered with fabric. Nice!

[@valeriesnyder97]

Very inspiring! Thank you Katie!

[@pickierossie6801]

that's amazing, and easy, i'd like to try those, they look fantastic in furnitures

[@4everyoung24]

Oh wow! I would have never thought of that. It looks so neat and tailored.

[@marybradley210]

That looks great!!! Thank you for the idea. I have lacquer furniture that I wanted to do something with. I wasn't sure about painting it.

[@helenk5579]

Great transformation!

[@healthforall1827]

This diy is so beautiful and lovely

[@marija411]

This piece turn out great, and it was not easy, but you did it!

[@isaacreisbord3957]

Oh my gosh I’m in love with this piece!😍 I actually just bought supplies to do a linen look with paint! May be changing my plans and using fabric.

[@salvagedbykscott]

There might be a painted version coming to KZbin next Saturday 🤫

[@anblesduke6360]

Fab as always!

[@lyndacobb1140]

That is really pretty. I covered a large sofa table with burlap. I painted it, and it looks fabulous. You might think about painting it since the bottom drawer did not dry with even color. If you put on two coats of paint, you can actually lightly sand the seams so they look smoother as well. I just love your work! You inspire me with every post!

[@portaamber]

Duuuude I wanna try this! It's awesome!

[@normmc8681]

This is really cool so inspiring I’ve never seen anything like it

[@theHEATHERandMAX]

Love this! I want to do this to make a coffee table that looks like the Crate and Barrel one

[@Anginatorrr89]

What a fun idea!

[@joanamariasalas6982]

To share this technique shows us the multiple choices you have to update a piece of furniture. As always, brilliant! Although I think it's very difficult and it takes a lot of work. Just painting as always you do could have done a good look too. Good job!

[@vivianalmeida4888]

I love love love this!!!!

[@cheryl9162]

I like that you try new techniques… so I can learn from your mistakes!👻…and as always it turned out beautiful!!!

[@kathleenhernandez3772]

Love how it came out

[@selenap7339]

I agree with Christina. Very cool. Brava 👏🏼 👏🏼

[@norcaldata]

Love this!!

[@mistyfiely3504]

This is one of my favorites!

[@joannekent6368]

Beautiful job!

[@maryross8903]

I love this! I’m still slightly intimidated but after watching you do this I definitely want to give it a try!❤️

[@BeeNaturalMe]

Very Kool, K. Scott. Great tips for us to attempt ourselves and a Beautiful outcome.

[@salvagedbykscott]

Glad you enjoyed it

[@brynjarose9360]

That looks great!

[@CreativeLady5]

It look Awesome and I love that technique..I actually bought some contact paper in a beige color with a linen texture and now you have me 🤔 thinking..you did an Amazing job and I can’t wait to see what you’re gonna do next, thanks for sharing..Peace & Blessings✌🏽

[@jonilarsen2642]

This is such a unique idea! I love it!

[@salvagedbykscott]

Thank you!! 😊

[@moviesindemand2023]

WoW! This is new to me. gonna try this one.

[@stephanielee6929]

This is a great idea. Thank you for sharing. 😍

[@maripurdiie6666]

was skeptical but this looks pretty classy. I am sure there are lots of techniques and methods that folks will tell you about so as to make it all easier and professional. Good paint choice and method choices. So creative. Well done you!

[@evangeliasharp2928]

it looks really cool

[@catofthecastle1681]

One thing- my mother taught me to do this 50 years ago. She said that you should always wash the fabric before using to remove the sizing(finishing starch) used by the factory for ease in folding and putting on the bolt. It inhibited saturation of water based glues or starches. Real linen has a lot of sizing to make it look best on bolts in the store and Cotton shrinks when wetted! It would be a tragedy for it to shrink after applied to the furniture. She also taught me to use starch or to water down Elmer glue all if you can’t find starch.You did a great job and it looks lovely!

[@paigedesignswpg]

This is SO cool!!!!!

[@sherrytangirala8590]

I loved that dresser, so creative! And I use Hello Fresh nearly every week!

[@dorisacosta8467]

I love this piece. You did a great job. The fabric looks even and you gave this piece of furniture a whole new life. I will be trying this on a piece I have hidden away in my basement storage room. Thank you.

[@gailbutler3310]

I like it. A lot of work!!!

[@ilensantamarina9715]

Katie, I think this is an incredible technique. The small dresser looks amazing.🤍♡🤍
