DIY Night Stand Makeover with REAL WOOD TOPS!

[@TranscendFurnitureGallery]

Your minds aren’t playing tricks on you- this video WAS initially released yesterday! Due to even MORE things going wrong with the project (seriously though, 😂😂), I ended up just removing it to make the changes and reuploaded it today, which is going to totally obliterate this video’s performance initially but it is what it is. 🤦‍♀️😂 If you want to know what happened (and to catch up on any other current news), check out the “community” tab on the main page of my channel. ❤️ Thanks for watching as always! ☺️

[@cravinsomeraven]

I’ll watch it again to give you the views, no problem!

[@TranscendFurnitureGallery]

Aww you’re awesome! ❤️❤️

[@willtheman840]

@@TranscendFurnitureGallery We watched it all again also.

[@Dingle1234]

It said "priiiivaaate.... my feelings were hurt!

[@TranscendFurnitureGallery]

@@Dingle1234 haha- i had to make the original one private until the new one had uploaded fully.

Best way to deal with sap is actually with heat...heat gun or a REALLY HOT blow dryer. As you heat it up it becomes liquid. You can use acetone it clean it off then seal the area. Btw, recently messaged you on Instagram!

[@vickigordon8311]

I find that these kinds of videos, where things do NOT go as you think they will, are in fact the most valuable lessons. Thank you for being so honest and allowing us to learn through your experiences! That is a true learning experience.

[@ferndarling8232]

So glad I found you!!! you do amazing work, are an incredible teacher and you are just a wealth of information!!! I have done some refinishing long ago, but now I am 72 and ready to go at it again!! I have my garage ready and lots of tools and supplies. Your videos are worth a million to me in this endeavor.... I know some things will look pretty good!!! I hope. Keep doing what you do, you are a wizard!! and thanks!!!

[@TranscendFurnitureGallery]

You are so welcome! I'm thrilled you're getting back into it! Best of luck with your projects and thank you so much for watching!

[@cnorovich48]

I love that you don’t have a tricked out workshop full of expensive equipment but still manage to produce beautiful furniture! It’s a relatable situation which I think is the reason you’re so popular with DIYers. Thanks so much for posting your work. 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

[@Bump688]

Most people would have edited out their mistakes, I'm glad you don't because it's a great help to others. I just love the pieces you work on and enjoy watching you transform items. Thank you again for everything you post. Stay well and stay safe from England, UK

[@lizhoward9754]

It amazes me how I always learn something from you with each video. I will never be able to thank you enough. You are a wealth of knowledge

[@Martin-yl5zb]

Joining the top to a piece that is cut free handed with a circular saw? You are a wood worker 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

[@mathewglover18]

I can’t stop watching your videos, they’re so fascinating, I just can’t look away! 😂 you have inspired me to flip some of my older furniture in the house, keep it up! Xx

[@karlitobergkamp8082]

Same here mate, high level of workmanship which is rare these days often enough it’s just quick flips and cutting corners 👍🏻

[@mabalbygandra]

Same with me 😁

[@katekursive1370]

It's important to see failures to learn!!

[@LadyLeigh]

It is a pleasure to watch your excellent restorations. I love how you expose your “little disasters” along with a very interesting narration. Superb job!

[@TranscendFurnitureGallery]

Thank you! I really appreciate that!

[@kimaoyama9594]

That color blend is gorgeous! Really beautiful job, even though it was a huge hassle. RIP Dewalt. You were a good and faithful servant.

[@MaureenTheTemp]

Thank you for being honest that sometimes NOTHING on a project seems to go according to plan! But in the end the piece looks awesome, gives me motivation to persevere!

[@thecourtlyalchemist]

Nice job on the replacement tops. The final color combination was a winner- fresh, light, easy on the eyes, but not generic. Changing to the matte black hardware made such a difference. Not many would bother. You have great attention to detail. Your finished pieces are all the better for it.

[@beatamichalska6220]

I really appreciate you finish inside of drawers. This is a mark of someone who loves mastercraft. Thx

[@darlenemccarthy7251]

They turned out so good!! I think the darker colored paint would have looked really good too!!

[@sharonolsen6579]

SO gorgeous !!! I mean absolutely want it ! LOL ...

[@deplorablechick3645]

I can’t stop watching! Your work is incredible! I’ve watched several other refinishers, and although there are some really good ones, none held me glued to the screen as well as your videos. Thank you for hours of enjoyment and relaxation.

[@TranscendFurnitureGallery]

You are so welcome! I'm so glad you enjoy my content. Thank you so much for watching!

[@lorrainewhitlock5377]

I really enjoyed the transformation of these two side tables. You did a great job especially with the tops

[@diannameyers8163]

If at first we don't succeed, try try again. Always learning in Life. And we all are right there with you.

[@TranscendFurnitureGallery]

Thanks so much!

[@burghbrat3319]

Great save! I work with pine boards a lot in the pieces I make, and I love the grain in pine but not the yellow (and sometimes reddish) tones in the wood, which wax seems to intensify. The best way I've found to neutralize that is to greywash the raw wood (very diluted black paint, and it dries a whole lot lighter than it looks when it's wet) before waxing, to get an unfinished (or even weathered) look. Try it on a piece of scrap pine and see if you like it!

[@TranscendFurnitureGallery]

That’s a great tip! I’ve neutralized pine (and reds like mahogany) with washes before doing a final whitewash, but I’ve never considered simply waxing over one! I’ll try it out :-)

[@michaelselley3211]

Those freehand circular was cute were absolute 🔥🔥🔥

[@catcar8212]

Wow that was a lot of work. I find it amazing that the eye knows when something is not quite right. You found the perfect combination. The pair look great, nice work!🌷

[@kathrynkneeland7179]

Love when you show the difficulties. They turned out beautifully.

[@TranscendFurnitureGallery]

Thank you very much! 🙂

[@Steven-de8zc]

They turned out wonderful, gave me kind of a relaxed beachy vibe. You took two lemons and made sweet lemonade. Sorry about Mr. Dewalt, well done good and faithful servant, you will be missed.

[@TranscendFurnitureGallery]

Thanks so much! 😊

You make it look so easy to deal with so much going wrong 😸. Another fantastic job 👌

[@karenkouns577]

The end result was VERY NICE!!! Appreciate that you never settled and your pieces really shows it. Thanks for sharing.

[@Lia2222]

I'm glad you taught me what pressed wood was because i am working on a piece that was left in the rain and warped and when sanding, it kinda crumbled off. So i ended up just added joint compound to it all over and am practicing making imprints in it and am keeping the piece on my porch for company to sit their drink on, etc

[@kimkichinko2445]

Glad I found you. Awesome videos, great content…keep em coming.

[@judymielcarek6011]

Love the final finish!

[@annettehalliday8892]

After all of the trouble, you have produced a very peaceful looking piece of furniture 👏👏👏

[@joshuapuyear6818]

Just seeing this video and I have to say I think that you are a very talented artist and woodworker. Just a tip for removing sap from raw wood is try a heat gun on low. Just be careful the heat will darken the wood. Some people like that and some don't. But it does look cool under a white wash paint

[@shiningstar328]

Gorgeous! I love the mint.

[@oonaghmoynan2948]

Amazing 👏

[@monikaweld5567]

I thought I saw this yesterday, but these things happen. I'm watching it again regardless... congratulations to 30k !!!!!🎉😍🥳👏🍻

Hi! Angie, the night stands look amazing I love the colour. I love how you have an amazing eye for what colours work and what colours don't. Keep up the great work 👍

[@anihristova7789]

i'm so glad you posted that pine board that you used -- it's just what I need for a current project! thank you! If anyone is curious, I checked Lowe's, Home Depot, and Menards, and Menards had the best prices (only useful if you live in the midwest lol).

[@Crystal13164]

What an improvement. They are lovely.

[@TranscendFurnitureGallery]

Thank you so much!

[@WomensTop20]

Wow, beautiful ❤

[@pamallen2498]

I just realized why I like your makeovers so much. You make them fresh, new and more modern looking, but, it's the fact that they won't be going out of style, or looking dated any time in the future. I love the fancy ones that others make too, but they will be dated in a few years.

[@creativegirl9710]

Nice job! Love to see all your skills and tips.

Vraiment une belle job felicitation j'aime beaucoup 🥰❤❤❤

You persevered! Great video!

[@kenparnell4297]

at the risk of sticking my nose in where it doesn't belong, I might have gone with an oil finish on the tops myself, but those are beautiful as you've made them. We all got opinions. Love the videos!

[@gnash64]

I respect your resourcefulness.

[@pattynoel6205]

I so enjoy learning from you. Each time something new. Would love more information on how you sell your pieces. My area likes the pieces but won't shell out any reasonable amount of cash. Your doing great work, many thanks.

[@inesespanol3388]

They came out super nice.

[@Libracando]

Thank you! You’re so informative! I learn so much from you! Thank you!

[@TranscendFurnitureGallery]

You are so welcome!

[@lockwoodjd]

I have the exact same nightstands. Straight from the furniture store mine are black, with a cherry stained top. Love what you did with them!

[@rrhopewell]

I love all your work. Those are beautiful

[@veronicagill3431]

So pretty

[@adrianekelly2966]

Really enjoyable listening and watching, regardless of whether I’d want to live with any given piece. Thanks so much for each demo. They do me good and go into my working/reference memory library. ✌️🖖😊

[@mitchmurrell753]

Great transformation of some trash to treasures! Having been a painter of cars, I have experience with a fantastic brand of spray paint. SEM brand is sold stateside, and the flat and satin black is fantastic. Goes on smooth and dries quickly. Found at automotive paint supply stores.

[@TranscendFurnitureGallery]

Thanks so much for watching!

[@Soundslikeaplan]

Love it! So different from what one usually sees in the shops. You definitely made it work! 👍

[@lainniewohlgemuth466]

Lol that was too funny!!! I knew she was gonna pick the Dixie bell. I’ve seen so many videos about it.

[@carmenm.4091]

Nothing went wrong really, you just have a good eye for colour. You knew it could be better if you painted the base an other tone. The end result is lovely! ❤️

[@matildanorberg]

I’m looking through your videos one at a time and I’m starting to get this anticipation smile when getting close to the reveal, knowing it will always be beautiful 🤩 This video couldn’t have had better timing for me. I have to glue a couple of cracks in the shelves of my “learning while doing project-pine cabinet” and I haven’t really known how to. You had so many smart and useful tips in this video 😃 (and I also just got my Dewalt sander, finally I can stop using the small, bouncing, hand numbing old one I’ve used so far 😂).

[@TranscendFurnitureGallery]
