Turning a VINTAGE VANITY into NIGHT TABLES \\ Budget Furniture Flip - $100 Challenge

[@marypace1846]

I love how the two nightstands turned out. I also loved the fact that you chose to show us how we can fix furniture with just what we have. Thanks for your ingenuity. Great job!

[@thecourtlyalchemist]

I think you and your friendly competitors should pitch this as a reality gameshow on Amazon. I would watch that show religiously. It was a stroke of genius to turn that orphaned vanity into night tables. Your finished set is unique and WOW what a handsome pair they make.

[@normagrimstad8869]

I would love to see it as all women too!

[@TraceyMush]

Oh gosh, this would be ruined by being on one of those reality shows. Her style and explanation of what she's doing would not fit in with all those fakers.

The color is incredible. You’ve inspired me so much! Last week I became the proud owner of an inherited hoarder house. In this hoard there’s about 100 years worth of furniture, some dating as far back as the 1850s, maybe older. As one would expect, all of it is damaged in some way. One coffee table was damaged so far beyond repair (thanks to decades of houseplants being watered on it) that it had to be taken to the dump. But all the other furniture I would LOVE to save. I have beautiful heywood Wakefield furniture I desperately want to save as well and use, of course. Last night I had my KZbin on autoplay and your videos came up! Suddenly I’m binge watching and I now know there’s a way to save all of these family heirlooms, even the ones that are on the edge of needing to be tossed. Thank you so much for your videos and keep up the great work!

[@TranscendFurnitureGallery]

Wow!!! Sounds like you hit the jackpot! Lucky you! 😃 I'm so glad you found me, and feel free to scroll through my posted content to see if there's anything there that can help.

[@salvagedbykscott]

YAAASSS! Splitting these guys up into usable pieces is my favourite. They look incredible 🖤

[@TranscendFurnitureGallery]

Thank you! ❤️❤️I’ve been wanting to try this for a while but just had to find the right piece that may have been overlooked otherwise!

[@spictou958]

@@TranscendFurnitureGallery I was going to say check out Katie Scott's version, too! You are two of my fave furniture revivers!!

[@ginaburgess9759]

Just brilliant!

[@whatnow8362]

These are stunning! My favourite of the $100 challenge so far.

[@deborahmatatall]

Sheer perfection! The new hardware honors the deco style while creating a wonderful modern look. Your video is the first one I’ve watched because I like to eat dessert first. Great job!🌸

[@TranscendFurnitureGallery]

hahaha I burst out laughing- that's amazing! thank you! :-)

[@tamarabrieling4361]

YOU, my dear, are my official favorite flipper of all time!

[@DesertDIY]

This is how the manufacturer should have designed these in the first place! LOVELY!

[@g.d.anonymous8235]

I checked out all of the other contributors, and they all did a nice job. For me, the second runner up is Desert DIY. But the winner, IMO, ................., wait for it....... Angie!!👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏Transcend Furniture Gallery!

[@BA-ef4pr]

Your eyes see perfection way before the finished product. Kudos!

[@AshHenson91]

Oh Angie, those are beautiful!! Definitely a huge transformation. Enjoyed collaborating with you!!

[@TranscendFurnitureGallery]

Thanks so much! 😊 It was a blast!

[@Julie-bq6iz]

This proves it-one really can make a silk purse from a sow's ear!🐷👜👏

[@mikimauski]

I've enjoyed your channel for a while, but this! Wow! You crushed this challenge. I don't mean just the gorgeous pieces at the end. I mean how you rose up to the challenge and used things you wouldn't normally use so you could make a video for the "common person". I'm so proud of you doing an amazing job here! Thanks for posting! (I love how you 'stuffed' that space in the back)

[@trishwilson7517]

Holy smokes, you nailed it (of course) ! This is such fun.. for us hahahaha. I'm sure it was a TON of work you you guys!

[@hha5968]

Fantastic as always. It’s a toss up between you and k Scott for my favourite flipper. Love your work. Added bonus was that you actually kept it under $100 and the viewer doesn’t have to spend hundreds on product only to use a bit - well done.

[@elegantupgrades]

I love how well you explain everything! And these turned out perfect!

[@lindseyg9429]

I love how you split the vanity up into 2 nightstands. They turned out amazing! I love the the navy mix color with the stain .. it’s so sleek & gorgeous and the hardware was the ultimate perfect touch! ❤️

[@sharilambeth9062]

Beautiful! Another budget friendly tip for anyone pinching pennies is to use horse hair shoeshine brushes to apply wax topcoats. They are used for cleaning and applying wax to shoe leather, and work very well on smaller wood projects.

[@VintageAndPainted]

Hehehe love the start Angie

[@vickiebelk635]

I would have never thought to do that. It turned out amazing!!!

[@TranscendFurnitureGallery]

thank you so much!

[@KnowCanDo]

10 seconds in and I'm already stoked. Love the bleep haha!!!

[@KnowCanDo]

love the heat gun trick too!

[@TranscendFurnitureGallery]

hahaha keeping it real. lol

[@diywife]

These turned out so beautiful, love all of your choices!

[@rottiegirl5052]

I can tell already this is going to be the most creative!

[@_.-._.-._.-._.-.]

I love love love that you treat the inside of drawers as well as the outside. It really takes everything you do to a whole new level.

[@1953lili]

Love the grain! You did it for under $100.00! I want to see you use those Bakelite handles one of these days!

[@TranscendFurnitureGallery]

Thanks so much for watching!

[@GeoEstes]

That walnut looks gorgeous, so rich and colorful. Pairs nicely with the dark paint.

[@emmavik-fredriksson640]

These are so wonderful!! You're a magician 🙌. That is so beutiful, the wood together with that dark paint and the handles looks so luxurious! My top flip of all KZbin flips I've seen🙌

[@catcar8212]

Your twin night table idea is great, and wood under the old finish does not disappoint. The hardware & paint color are perfect together. With a lot of work plus extra love, I'd say you created a timeless treasure.🌷🌷

[@TranscendFurnitureGallery]

Thank you! Yes, I’m happy this lives on as useful furniture now!!

[@sherrysmith332]

These are very masculine, which is a nice change from many flips. Very handsome!

[@loriharrisonwright9727]

Those are gorgeous! I admire how you take an issue and find a solution for it. Very inspiring! ❤

[@sheilacowles]

This flip stayed true the Art Deco era with the black and wood. Totally loved this flip!

[@TranscendFurnitureGallery]

Thank you so much!

[@cravinsomeraven]

Don’t tell the others in this challenge…but yours was by far my favorite! You’re so talented.

[@RedDevilRaspberry]

😲 Absolutely stunning! Love, love, LOVE it! ✌🏼

[@tableflippinghousewife]

Dowels to fill in old drawer pull holes? A slightly larger drill bit to correct an error when drilling for new pulls? Brilliant! I’ve learned a lot from watching you. Thank you for sharing your wealth of knowledge!

[@legadillo]

You are the Queen of Clamps!

[@AjsVintageDesigns]

Love how you showed each step of doing the repairs !! Fabulous challenge video !! :)

[@fuencislamatesanz3845]

Out of all the videos yours is my favorite. You have followed the rules of the challenge scrupulously and the result is fabulous.

[@832KJV]

They are INCREDIBLE! You (and Katie Scott) are my favourites. Well done.

[@juliemanning4510]

I love that you separated into 2 nightstands!!

[@RestoreMoreMCM]

I can’t say enough about your extreme quality work. You excel at restoration, design and presentation. If there was a category for Professional, you would be the only entrant in these challenges. You and Dasher Design are far and away the best in class on KZbin for MCM.

[@TranscendFurnitureGallery]

Thank you kindly!

[@brendalowery6149]

Beautiful work. I love how you kept your tool choices based on what a newbie would have. Great video

[@LumunGames]

You made this so much more challenging for yourself than any of the other YT Challengers will do. I appreciate what you did with your cost breakdown but any other challenge like this I've seen, creators just calculate the amount of a product they used, they don't buy expensive mini-sized portions or modify their product / tool selections due to cost. For example, one of the other challengers used their surf-prep sander, etc. That being said, I really admire your adherence to the budget, as I think the idea is to showcase what you can do with a limited budget even as a beginner. Plus your furniture piece is, as always, stunning. Thanks for another great video

[@TranscendFurnitureGallery]

I chose to do it this way on purpose, as I was gearing the challenge more towards beginners who may not have all of the products already on hand. I knew it would be more challenging, but I wanted to approach from the standpoint of someone just starting out :-) Thank you so much for watching!

[@cindyfaukovic4036]

I selected to watch your video first because you are my favorite furniture flipper!! Great job!! Love it!!

[@TranscendFurnitureGallery]

Aw thank you so much!

[@barbarasterling2120]

AMAZING idea to turn this piece into two separate nightstands!

[@emilyaimone]

I would’ve looked for a half second at that vanity and thought ew no! You made those nightstands look INCREDIBLE! 😍

[@TranscendFurnitureGallery]

I’m guessing a few people did, which is probably why he said 10 bucks at the sale haha SOLD! Lol

[@lindap9079]

What a genius! Making the holes a bit bigger in order to attach the hardware.

[@mygodreigns9964]

Amazing! Love the commentary and thorough explanations!

[@foreveryoungagain]

Perfect...I'm usually sad to see these antique vanities split but she needed you... gorgeous end tables/ night stands... absolutely gorgeous

[@TranscendFurnitureGallery]

Yes, I was definitely waiting for the right piece to try it- and this one, missing it’s mirror and bench was the perfect candidate, I think!

[@abav811]

WOW. You are the master. Those nightstands are gorgeous. I can't believe those handles were only 5 bucks!

[@TranscendFurnitureGallery]

Thank you so much for watching!! 😊

[@ReconstructingEmily]

Love the Veneer on it after you refinished it. Wow! Also I noticed your end music is different - I like the new one better 😀❤! Great work!

[@TranscendFurnitureGallery]

I have two "end" songs that I go back and forth between- I like them both equally but some pieces seem to suit one over the other! :-)

[@ReconstructingEmily]

@@TranscendFurnitureGallery StreamBeats has free tracks if you wanted to expand. Not sure if you know of them but I remember you said you like music. They have a good variety of copyright free music. And this end track definately fit the result. ❤❤

[@lubblyjubblyfurniture]

They turned out amazing well done, loved your $100 challenge. The colour is beautiful, loved watching this.

[@robertawills7219]

Angie, it is absolutely gorgeous. Brilliant idea to. Are 2 night tables. The grain in the wood is really lovely. If there was a prize or winner for the challenge, it should be you!

[@debbiemelton4426]

It turned out gorgeous and I’m glad you swapped out the hardware❤️❤️❤️

[@lorrainewhitlock5377]

I've been following this series and your two nightstands have turned out very very well. I wouldn't mind having them in my house

[@Roganthesigma]

Absolutely love this project!!

[@kitcobain444]

I literally just clapped at your end result!! Bravo!! Great job, I don't think anyone would have ever envisioned what you did here!! *Best in show*

[@TranscendFurnitureGallery]

Thank you so much! I’m so happy with how they turned out in the end!

[@jeniferfenstermaker4627]

Awesome sauce! I love your projects and especially the attention to detail and design in every piece. I also love that you keep furniture from the landfill; great work for the planet 💕

[@yolandamunoz1840]

You do Beutiful job becouse of you I feel can do it Thank you 🙏 Gid Bless Your Hands.

[@LoriM222]

I love how they came out! I'm still going thru all of your older videos that I haven't seen before I found your channel. I love your work, sweetheart!! Oh and it's a wonderful thing that you kept the bakelite handles! I can't believe that a lot of people don't know how valuable they are and glad you do!!

[@Steven-de8zc]

Looks like a winner to me. The new hardware was spot on and the wood grain was on point! I'm starting to think you have a magic wand in your workshop that you keep out of view.

[@TranscendFurnitureGallery]

Haha thanks so much! 😊

[@melissahislop5716]

My grandma had a vanity like that! It was painted white though. And yes, it was very awkward to sit at. I love your giggle, it's so sweet. It makes me feel like we could be friends. Of course I'd be bothering you too often wanting to borrow your tools. :)

[@MrsJax304]

You have some really great tips and tricks in this video. The staining tip, the dowels, and using the pull saw(I didn’t know what that was called until now) Thank you again for sharing your knowledge

[@alysonbyrd5558]

I very much like and appreciate the way you broke down and listed your project. You showed how it can be done without including already owned items. The other collaborators estimated amounts used of products, paint sealer and so on of items they purchased previously. Your way was the truest as you purchased everything you used and still had an amazing finished project! I really enjoy your channel!

[@TranscendFurnitureGallery]

Thank you very much!! 😊

[@lestersenra2955]

Awesome work as always! I'm a carpenter, and watching your videos is not only relaxing but inspiring for me. Thank you and keep up the great work!!!!

[@dazedconfused5019]

Make the middle part; which is beautiful piece, a plinth/plant stand by adding a base. Beautiful.

[@moniquehorton1111]

Awesome job!! They came out amazing! If you ever do more nightstands, maybe consider staging with a blow-up mattress with a faux headboard to get a feel for how it’d look in a bedroom. Love the end result! 🤩

[@amandas6491]

Who would have thought that beautiful walnut was under that terrible finish! These two nightstands are gorgeous. Well done, and yep! I subscribed to see more of your creations.

[@melissahoneybee8493]

I’ve just finished the whole playlist which I came to because I’m subscribed to you and I have to say you completely blow everyone else away with your technical skill and aesthetic. Some of those makeovers were hideous!

[@RoeRoe123]

Wow this was brilliant! I love the way you embrace wood... Always 🤗 These are gorgeous and to split this up. WOW.

[@vandahuman8522]

Stunning, so glad you changed the handles. I love it.

[@SF-ru3lp]

Superb! The splitting up of the parts gives two super slim bedside table which are hard to find. The new hardware is really elegant. Gorgeous work Angie. Very inspiring. G Ire

[@tomz346]

Love the idea of the dowel plugs in the drawer holes. Debra

[@marcellamance1812]

They're perfect! Gorgeous work as always.

[@WindQueen12]

Wow! Perfect art deco! Just imagine art deco lamps on them, just gorgeous and so high end❤

[@TranscendFurnitureGallery]

Thanks for watching!

[@alexandrade151]

Genius! You’re the winner in my book

[@TranscendFurnitureGallery]

Thank you! I appreciate that 🙂

[@FlipItFurniture]

I loved watching the Transformation of the wood when you added the beeswax. And that hardware 🤩 beautiful!

[@TranscendFurnitureGallery]

I was SOOO fortunate to find the hardware so cheap!!

[@thatoldaner]

Vanities into night stands are my favorite flips. These turned out great. How lucky you were for those wood sides!

[@angelacorey4469]

All your pieces are works if art!!!!

[@courtneypierce263]

I love everything about this flip! It’s looks incredible!!!!

[@soseconds6591]

Wow, looks so rich and sophisticated! LOVE!

[@furniturefliphustle3531]

Absolutely stunning, you smashed this one out the park 😍😍😍

[@lionheart830]

Wow! Didn't think it could be done! You sold me! I love the night stands!

[@shirleypedersen7406]

Very, very pretty Angie. I’d say you were the winner.

[@TranscendFurnitureGallery]

Thank you so much!!

[@tonyayoung4663]

Absolutely gorgeous like it as the two nightstands

[@susanmiller7935]

Wow so nice they would look amazing in a high end bachelor pad 🤩

[@juliastockhausen7173]

I have been watching your uploads for a few months and am still amazed at what you see and create. It doesn't get old. Thank you

[@teresacathey8189]

I think your project turned out very nice for what all you had to do. Way to go!! Love the hardware.👍💐

[@elizabethlevine4263]

My favorite so far! Wow, you are frugal AND talented!!

[@mandytwilson4564]

Brilliantly done! It’s amazing how such a small dollar value plus your vision & skills produced such a stunning set of nightstands…congrats. 🙌

[@audrey5941]

Well, I feel validated now that someone else said those old vanities are impractical in that a chair doesn’t fit in it, nor does a person’s legs!! Although I’m all for restoration of vintage pieces, sometimes a conversion project turns an impractical piece into something a person can actually use. Beautiful job!! Congrats on finishing under budget!!

[@jennifersharp6624]

Omg these are absolutely stunning. I deeply love all your work but this is something else I kid you not.

[@lullakay1276]

What can I say.....Beautiful!!

[@angelicapugatschew7474]

Thank you for saving and highlighting those beautiful wood grains wherever possible. Your results are wow! I am sad to see the other challengers resort to paint almost exclusively.

[@TranscendFurnitureGallery]

Thank you very much!

[@helpmehealmyself9705]

Wowee zowee, Angie! Nice, nice, nice!!🌹

[@ofeliavaldesjohnson2897]

Unbelievable! What a creative idea and they are beautiful.

[@cathyknapp9360]

You did an awesome job what a great idea turning them into nightstands love all your tips on how to do things under $100 thank you so much for sharing always enjoy watching your DIYs have a great day and God bless you

[@just-a-crayon4]

Never would think to repurpose an old desk like this - what a great set of night stands! :)

[@ruthfedrau5546]

Such a great idea to make 2 pieces of this piece. And so glad you decided not to use the original handles! Perfect sizr night stands when you don't have too much room on either side of a bed!
