*MONEY SAVED* I thrift flip old bedroom side tables into beautiful modern ones! 😍 | DIY DANIE

[@DIYDanie]

I forgot to give the DL on why I removed the side tables from the bedroom to begin with! I originally had my wicker side tables in the main bedroom but I always knew they weren’t going to be a long term solution. I realized it was so silly that we had these BEAUTIFUL side tables with storage in the second bedroom doing nothing, so I moved them but the wicker ones didn’t really work in the dark room. I’m going to use the wicker tables for our outdoor makeover! 💜

[@ibmimi2566]

Beautiful job!! Your skills always amaze me!!

[@loveiskindwalling7352]

Great job! Boop. 😀

[@PattyEaglelight]

It's such a great flip! What an inspiration! They really look great and modern! And I'm really bad at wiring comments but I just wanted to say that I loved it! What patience you have! That's why I like to watch your videos. They help me practice patience when I remember what you do. Thanks!

[@melinafuhrmann5356]

Danie: "I really love these sid tables" Also Danie: continues to take everything apart :D

[@karinapfel650]

I was thinking that by the time all the pieces were removed, she had a mdf/presswood box that could have been more simply just made from scratch lol!

[@Gandellion]

I’m in the UK and I was all worried cause the video wasn’t up and there was nothing on the community tab and then I remembered I live in the future to you

[@jjupiter1218]

😂😂

[@DIYDanie]

😂😂😂 hello from the past!

[@lovingmayberry307]

Lol

[@werbinich]

Props to whoever chose the music for this video. It's giving amazing 80s vibes in the best way. 80s movie music.. sublime!

[@jessicahites871]

If I hadn't seen it with my own eyes I'd never believe these were those same end tables!! Great job!!

[@madebyraven]

Being a visual thinker, it was really funny when you said six foot feet for under the tables. I'm just picturing the sidetable super tall and crammed in against the ceiling of a room HAHA

[@jaimeaugustine9487]

Good morning Danie! Good morning Diy Danie fans..

[@DIYDanie]

Good Morning!!!!!

[@karilane1416]

I used a great blue paint to stain a teak (I know! but there was stain I couldn't get out) mid century chair. It is sooooo beautiful. I also had the cushions reupholstered in a vintage fabric my mother drug all over the country for 50 years!

[@lizhallengren5127]

Would love to see pic!

[@stellamantikou4978]

5:28 My students recently quizzed me about the hot/cold combo. Now it's their ritual too. Danie is inspiring people in all aspects and generations!😂❤

[@gigik6334]

My daughter, too!

[@maryrose4148]

These tables look very similar to my fathers old night stands from the 1950s, although lighter in color. My brother has them now. I admire your perseverance and patience to get through your projects. ❤

[@lindacsmith13]

You know it's a success when it doesn't jump out at you when you see it in place. Great job.

[@nancyanneberg403]

Takes guts to degut the old clunker and sleek it up. Thank you fir your guts and good taste and hard work. Encourages me.

[@joycedavis9996]

mornin’ ❤kenobi

[@DIYDanie]

Morning Joyce! ❤️

[@martamanfrin5675]

Incredible you could see potential in those dates side tables! 😱😱 Well done! 🤩🤩🤩

[@2L82Pray1]

Mmmmm....Saturday morning sleep in, coffee, and Danie!

[@DIYDanie]

Whoo hoo!!!

[@brendaspoinciana7150]

Danie, you're my favorite DIYer. Thank you for taking us with you when you create.

[@thesmikey13]

Quick tip on sanding legs - put the screw end into your drill, wrap a piece of sandpaper round the leg and hold it in your palm like your holding a microphone then set your drill going - the leg is sanded smooth in one minute!!! 😀

[@michellereneebrelsford1553]

Another great job and can I just say you looked absolutely beautiful at the end of your video. Your hair was perfect, your minimal makeup enhanced your natural beauty. You looked stunning! As always, I can't wait for your next DIY project.

[@janf817]

If I had half your talent and ability I'd be a happy woman! Another amazing transformation as always Danie! Well done and thanks for sharing!

[@BlackTLiving]

Love the chocolate paint synchronicity! These turned out so awesome and with several types of wood, laminate, solid, particle, veneer, etc., which I think is so helpful for us real world DIYers. So inspiring!

[@jennydrenkow]

You nailed it - as always! ❤

[@lechatbotte.]

I’m better now that Danie is here! I’ve got a dresser that I like but it’s veneer and they never look great in person. So this is the DIT project I need. Coffee and Danie on SaturDIY what could be better? Can’t think of anything. Danie is my SaturDIY ritual hee hee

[@DIYDanie]

I hope this gives you the inspiration you’ve been waiting for!

[@Gandellion]

Also I dare you to get colour analysis cause I’m obsessed with it and the cool toned hair looks so great on you, I wanna know the tea

[@Gandellion]

But so do the deep dark colours… colour me intrigued eheheh

[@DIYDanie]

I can’t dye my hair for a little while… she’s super depressed and breaking. So what you see is my blonde coming back in a fierce way haha 😆

[@DLLP2052]

I was sceptical of the final product until I saw it in the room and styled. They looked perfect in the space! Well done on the final vision!!

[@diannesandvik460]

It’s seems like forever since I watched a video from you. And I’m subscribed. I forgot how much I enjoyed your videos. I love the night stands. They look beautiful. You always impress me with your design work and skills. Great furniture flip!

[@lovebertierose]

Danie, You are so patient with the process. The end tables really look nice. You did make them modern and didn't cost you the money for new ones. One would never know you didn't buy them from a modern furniture store. Well done! I have an old oak dresser and armoire that has funky drawer fronts that I have to upcycle. You have given me confidence to jump right in with my tools. Thanks

[@julieforan3559]

Great flip! I use a brush on / wipe off technique with sienna craft paint on thrift store wood boxes to create inexpensive storage bins that still look coordinated. But my favorite part of this video has to be Kenobi and the vacuum! : ) Thank you Dani for another great start to my Saturday!

[@patriciahamel5674]

They turned out so great! I love the watered down paint stain idea to match different wood types.

[@TrishaLynnSpins]

Loved the flip! Also, loved all your cute hairstyles in this one video!

[@sazennonumber]

Turned out amazing!! You did 180 there and they look beautiful now. That was a lot of work, but totally worth it.

[@agnesmooney1533]

Danie, you never shy away from hard work. You always go for the best. I was sure that I would hate this flip but da' gone-it I don't. Not my favorite one you've done, but I have to say , You did a remarkable job. Kudos ! Your videos never disappoint.

[@annyinwpg]

This was a really amazing transformation! I wouldn't have thought you could take a dated piece and modernize it so much!

[@Midwesternmisfit]

You look so cute with your hair pinned back!! And your bangs stealing the show in the front!! You’re adorable anyways but still hehe. Also, your beautiful creative brain inspires me!!!!

[@hadeev]

The nightstands came out amazing! You rack Danie!

[@carolebramaz1988]

Hi Danie, your DIY idea and fliping furniture are always so nice ! Do you think that I the next ones you could mention the final cost of the furniture ? Thanks and have a nice day

[@TheRosiePatel]

I love a rich tone cabinet, you smashed it Danie! I have a request please - probs (def😅) not your usual content but, please show us how you did your hair on the day you screwed the legs on? 🙏 Pleeease, please, for me, please. Love x

[@lindap9079]

You have helped me look beyond the current style of a piece to see its potential. Next time you do a thrift flip, please give us a price breakdown and compare it to the cost of the inspiration piece.

[@lizzymorang8906]

I love this flip! It irks me deep in my soul to see beautiful solid wood pieces be painted over* but on a veneer and particle board piece like this I am so shocked at the transformation and new life you've given them! *But also I'd rather they be used than thrown away, so you do you everybody

[@roxiepoe9586]

You work so hard to make things that look stylish and elegant. I love it.

[@A_Amazi]

I live vicariously through your ideas/tools/knowledge. 🙌🏻 Plus, your wavy hair is always so pretty. 💕

[@melissam8939]

I do adore this moody little guest room. Also love an upcycle!

[@TamarLitvot]

You took stodgy beat-up unappealing side tables and turned them into lovely bedside tables. So much work but worth it! While the original hardware wouldn’t have worked on your new version of these tables, they were the best thing about the originals. They’d look good (if you could find the missing piece) on something antique.

[@lilred312benett6]

I love the transformation. I would like to see a video that shows what you do with all the leftover material and parts. I have lots of off cuts and pieces that I can't bring myself to throw away.

[@debbybuchman8091]

Danie, the tables are some the best I've seen! They are absolutely gorgeous 💖

[@lfuentes4098]

I love how they turned out. I was concerned when the paint was drying but once you added the sealer it looked just like any stained wood. Cool trick! 😊

[@luciaplesko]

I am in love with your moody bedroom❤❤ Great flip - Your creativity is mind blowing, I would never imagined that you can transform these nightstands this much ❤

[@73kars]

I miss furniture DIY projects, due to health issues I can no longer do it ☹️. Loving this Danie they look great x

[@jeanne-marie8196]

What do I think of this DYI? I think WOW! This wasn’t a flip, this is a new build! I would put these as end tables in the living room, on display for all to see! Be proud. What an accomplishment!

[@RebeccaTreeseed]

Your hair is dahling. I was amazed at how lovely these turned out. Good job!

[@angielovett4159]

Those are super cute! I love them SO much! You did great!💕⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

[@heavenlymorsels]

Wow what a transformation-not even the same pieces! Beautiful work Dani! ❤😊🎉

[@OoohYeahhhhh]

Been watching you for years. Would like to know you more. Would you consider to add day of your life or Q&A sometime?

[@CarrieSmithOriginal]

Great job, Danie!! These are not even CLOSE to what they were before. So inspiring girl! That tip coat really brought that color to life! You could just do these types of flips all day long and be wildly successful.

[@MangoPaint]

These turned out so great Dani! And of course I LOVE how you created a stained look using Mango Paint!

[@HAGGISWOOMAN]

Dear Dani, I noticed you use two different respirator type masks in this process. Would you ever consider doing a video on safety practices you use when creating things in your shop?

[@julies2110]

💜 The next time you sand legs insert the screw into the end of your drill (like you would a drill bit) and as you run the drill cup the sandpaper in your other hand. 😎

[@PattyEaglelight]

Don't know what I did but I think I erased my first comment. Just wanted to say it looks great! And you make me be patient when I remember your videos and how patient you are. That's why I love watching them. They give me patience! Don't know if that makes sense, but Thanks!

[@tonivalenzuela8274]

You transformed it beyond recognition. I'm impressed especially when it didn't look right you took it apart and changed it. I think I would have put a gold knob on it. I liked it very much.

[@melissimo.]

I need the OST to your life. The music in your videos is always so funky. 😅🎉

[@justinketcham5435]

Just wanted to say I love the music 🎶. Kudos to the editor!

[@wonderwonder30]

Are you gonna ever talk about your new tattoos? I am very intrigued ♥️😊

[@sheilamayfield9587]

Brillant. I love the final product. I also like the cypress color of the side tables before painting. It really appealed to me. I live in south Louisiana near a swamp that grows cypress which may be why that color calls to me.

[@BaskEtcAse1970]

That before and after is like chalk and cheese. 1000% better! Looks great Danie!

[@jodieturner986]

I did a paint wash on the stairs which 4 of them were new wood . The wash was beige and warm gray I let them dry then I applied couple different stains to variegate and match the new luxury vinyl flooring. I applied stains with brush then wiped it back with cloth looks great . Maybe next time you need to match up different wood you can try this !

[@NitrosMom074]

Hey sweet girl! I envy your vision. How you even saw that those old side tables could be made into the mcm beauties they are, simply astounds me! You are the creativ-est beast ever! Love love love your channel and your energy. 💛💛💛

[@lz738]

Using the paint instead of stain to make all the wood match was a brilliant idea! I never would have thought of that because I hate brown paint, but diluted like you did, it looks just like a stain but without the patchy absorption!

[@vitavivendi]

I love these side tables! You've turned them to mid century style which is my favorite. I think I'm gonna try upcycle two old side tables I got from my grandma

[@olgamellorine]

These turned out soooooo good!!! I’m always amazed by what you create ❤❤❤❤❤

[@lauriedunn6198]

Really came out looking great. Pretty close to the original color on my screen, but a totally different vibe.

[@Joliepinkyswear1]

These look amazing, though I'm not surprised. The only thing I'm not in love with is the handles, but that's just personal preference. Also, Danie, your wavy hair at the end is gorgeous on you.

[@Mandy4610]

These turned out absolutely amazing and you gave me an idea for mine. With that amount of work though, I feel like you could have made those yourself from scratch, but the materials I guess would cost more. Amazing work as always.

[@2L82Pray1]

I had my own project today so I had to leave and come back to finish watching. These tables are absolutely GORGEOUS! OMG! Now I'm going to be on the lookout for a copy cat LOL

[@kayenacur]

Danie: look at these wonderful nightstands! They are not solid wood and I hate everthing about them. I love them!

[@mariannerady1137]

They turned out stunning! Love the sleek look, they are a nice addition to the comfy and cozy feel of the bedroom

[@amsbmp]

Wow, 😳 amazing transformation.... They were made for that space. They complete the room. Ty for sharing, definitely gets the juices going....

[@aliciaahlvers8741]

I am always so impressed by your problem solving skills. Great job!

[@purplewombat1923]

I love the colour of your side tables! It's perfect :-D

[@aimeehodgin6359]

I have been loving your DIY's for some time now but I gotta say....this is magnificently feeling super as you put each piece together! Before they were rather boring....but with the shedding of bulkiness refining to modern...it just added sleekness & beauty! Well Done Danie!!!! WooHoo!! 💚💚💚 Oh...& BTW super retro music!!!

[@alipoole7061]

Ideally , nightstands should be at the same height as the top of your mattress. For ease of use and a pleasant aesthetic ( they do not have to match in style).

[@opalmoon2256]

I'm totally loving those nightstands....great diy 😊 awesome job 👏 Yay!!!!

[@ambbbognov]

This video was so satisfying. As usual you showed how much work and love goes into making a piece amazing. Thank you for your videos 🥰

[@JackieMeadow]

These look incredible! I can't believe the before/after! I'd swear you bought these at West Elm if I hadn't watched this video. Fantastic work!!! :D

[@kimwatson7463]

So glad you thought before just painted these beauties! I love the watered-down paint!

[@stitchann]

I loved the way you did this and how they were transformed but I was exhausted after you were done.

[@Slightly_Classy]

Alexa responding to elixir was 👌🏻😂

[@amyworman4196]

Yay, great flip! I look forward to your videos on Saturday mornings. Just one observation. The music was fun, but very loud as compared to the parts with you talking. I was constantly changing the volume. I don't edit videos so I have no idea how that works!!! Anyway - keep on keeping on :) You rock!

[@carlawolff8793]

Oh Wow.....Super fantastic. Let's do it again. Keep up the amazing work.

[@itsamyyy91]

Danie, absolutely love your bangs & hairstyle at 13:52

[@mowattlavern62]

They came out beautiful

[@sharonnewman650]

❤Love to see you using a women led, locally owned business like Mango Paint❤

[@twilahammel3089]

I think you should paint the room, to brighten it up and make it look more spacious.

[@ntcssj]

Wow! Such a huge difference and so much work put into this! This kind of came at the perfect time for inspo as I found one of my bookcases was no longer safe and wanted to replace it with some drawer cabinets.

[@-angie.]

Another amazing transformation! They are absolutely stunning...well done!

[@gwendurden5096]

You can mix stain and make your own color I do it on my job all the time cause I have to make oak handrails match laminate floors hate doing it but it can be done. Hope this helps in the future

[@anneporter123]

I have no idea how you think these things up. I would never! What a way to start my Saturday.

[@shadowess1961]

They were so pretty in that sanded version but the brown elevated them.

[@lisaschreiber2893]

ok these were so brilliant I had to watch this episode twice to see if you did the ol’ switcheroo on us as my gramps says ❤ absolutely incredible!

[@summerhillenburg4837]

I’m so impressed. I loved watching your process and you unconventionally use of stain. Loved it 😊

[@FaithyandOtis..Massachusetts]

Absolutely love those tables and what you did with them, you knocked it out of the ballpark again❤❤ Hope your mom is doing well. Loves and hugs from me and Otis🐶 Massachusetts

[@lovingmayberry307]

My little guy 🐶 is Otis also! 💙 Hi from Arizona.

[@FaithyandOtis..Massachusetts]

@@lovingmayberry307 hello there new friend♥️♥️

[@LoomofDreams]

These turned out beautiful! What a great idea to mix water with the paint - I never even knew that was a possibility! You really transformed these and they look so great in the space!
