[@juanitadejager6138]

So glad I am not the only one who is trying to learn your blending methods...you are the Queen of blending !! Another exquisite piece !!

[@elegantupgrades]

That’s so very kind, Juanita! Thank you!

[@wendylynn7605]

Thank you for this! I still have and use the dresser I got as a baby (I'm 63 now) and I plan to repaint it and wallpaper the drawer fronts.

[@elegantupgrades]

Oh I’m so glad you got something from the video! I hope you love your “new” dresser when you finish it!

[@lydiakinnaman1106]

Beautiful, love paper choice.

[@elegantupgrades]

Thank you, Lydia. It’s one of my favorites.

[@lynnes8047]

I purchased a roll of paintable wallpaper off Amazon. It was not prepasted so I used Mod Podge to adhere. Once it dried, I used sandpaper to sand off the overhang. Worked great and then I painted in the same color as the dresser base (I had sanded the drawer fronts). Love your quick videos!

[@elegantupgrades]

Thank you, I do try to keep them on the shorter side. I have used the anaglypta wallpaper myself and I love it!

[@gloriafields4328]

Love this paper. You make it look so easy. Going to have to try some wallpaper on a project soon. Thanks !!

[@elegantupgrades]

I’m so glad! If you do, I’d love to see the finished piece!

[@carjam49]

It looks great and I love how you use minimal effort. You don't want to overdo. :)

[@elegantupgrades]

Thank you! Yes, sometimes simple is the way to go.

[@pookiehoney]

I have to try this it looks amazing.

[@pamelahauer9938]

[@tracymcreations]

[@elegantupgrades]

Thank you!

[@tonyaclaxton9169]

Beautiful 🌸

[@elegantupgrades]

Thanks, Tonya! And it’s super easy!

[@tonyaclaxton9169]

I enjoy watching you create your masterpieces 🥰

[@annodnostaw9971]

Put masking tape over drawer pull holes on the inside of drawer to prevent any liquid/spackle dripping through.

[@elegantupgrades]

Great tip 😊

[@mollyblack369]

How did the edges get finished? What if the drawer has a beveled edge?

[@catherine8293]

Can you do this with a dresser that has curved drawers? Do the drawers have to be flat for this to work? Thank you!

[@elegantupgrades]

You can absolutely do it on curved drawers! You just have to go a little slower while applying to make sure it’s smooth.

[@sophielouise4864]

Could you tell me what type of paper your using please? It looks ace!!

[@elegantupgrades]

Ok, I couldn’t find the exact color way, but this is the print and brand of the one I used. amzn.to/3llUCb7 They have a few different color ways in the “Grand Floral” print.

[@rehamreda1229]

Is this wallpaper ? Is it durable ? If some water are poured for reason like putting a vase of flowets..the watter will eat z wallpaper..so fo we have to put a layer of something

[@lindacarden9698]

Lovely piece. You r a great teacher. R u saving for a down payment on a house or the whole amount?

[@elegantupgrades]

Thank you, Linda. And just the down- I probably should have clarified.

[@sheemakhan459]

Whats the glue thing called that u put in beginning..u called it poly?

[@elegantupgrades]

Yes, it’s not actually glue- it’s Polyacrylic.

[@michelebianco8383]

What is the purpose of the polyacrylic? The pre-pasted paper shouldn't stick to the wood just with water? Thank you for sharing your video, they are great :)

[@deliaturner6086]

Is the wall paper wet when you put it on

[@elegantupgrades]

No, not wet with water. But you can use water if you trust your paper’s adhesive. I like using my top coat because it activates the adhesive and creates a bit more.

[@sarahernandez8766]

‼️❤️NICE❤️‼️

[@elegantupgrades]

Thanks, Sara!

[@samv9248]

Is it possible to seal it with a varnish so it can be cleaned without risk of damage?

[@elegantupgrades]

Yes, you can absolutely seal over the top. I do on porous wallpapers, but this one in particular is wipeable so I wasn’t worried about it.

[@sharonrooney2888]

@@elegantupgrades... hi there.. I'm gonna jump in on this one of thats ok, please? May I ask what you would seal with .. varnish, modgpodge.. ? Or something else? Thanks x P.s I looooove the look you produced 🥰

[@sharonrooney2888]

@@elegantupgrades may I ask why you use to seal a porous wallpaper? Thanks...

[@elegantupgrades]

@@sharonrooney2888 Thank you, Sharon! I typically use a water based poly on porous wallpaper. Never Mod Podge. But you can use almost any sealer. The water based poly is just my preference.

[@myleemae7858]

​@@elegantupgradesWhat is the adhesive and the sealant you use, please?

[@bettyriggs8573]

Someday I will using some of your ideas and of course with my own twist. Not a total copycat and not your skill level.

[@elegantupgrades]

I’m so glad you are finding inspiration from my channel, Betty! That’s why I do it. You’ll have to keep me posted on how yours turn out.

[@ksealskimmer]

do you have a link 4 the wallpaper?

[@elegantupgrades]

Yes, however, it’s currently unavailable. But keep checking back as it goes in and out of stock frequently. amzn.to/3uTl2WH They also have the same print with different color variations with this link: www.amazon.com/dp/B07WDYKK52/ref=cm_sw_r_as_gl_api_gl_i_37M757VT6J1S8FH12HJH?linkCode=ml2&tag=elegantupgrad-20

[@jafallica]

Can’t see what you’re doing.

[@elegantupgrades]

Hmmm, I tried going back to see if I was out of frame (I sometimes get absorbed in painting and forget to move the camera), but I couldn’t find that in this video. Is there a part in particular you couldn’t see? Thanks for your feedback! I really appreciate you taking the time to let me know.
