It's so good to see you today!! What a gorgeous piece!! I used to play with glaze on the walls of a country house we used to have; I think I glazed every room about three times. The combinations are endless, as you indicated. As a result, my arms became super toned, as I'm sure yours are!!! Love ya!!! xxx

@@TheReclaimedHeirloom I also found a not so nice message and decided to post a reply. It is not the first time I accidentally read a critical message, like one about your voice and intonation, people should go look at themselves in a mirror before opening the mouth. Who gave them the right to be critical or nasty? I tell you, I so not enjoy social media at all. It should be fun, informational, more truthful but Instead it has become a place in which cowards come to say what they are incapable to share in person and in many cases it has become harmful and toxic.

[@DownButNotOutYet]

Good morning Christina, when you showed us the dresser I immediately thought, this has so much potential and I wonder how the transformation will turn out. It looks great. Love the copper you used on the metal. For that furniture with a made in China sticker it is not too bad, the design is very nice. Rather strange that the drawers could not be removed, just for general use. I have a small decorative table, looks so sweet and it's quite sturdy, but, I turned it over for cleaning and I was horrified to see the finish off. It is such a rough finish off, they could just not be bothered. Hence for quality furniture, you will pay quite a bit. My husband was comparing the solid oak dining table to the modern stuff, there is none. If possible if you know of senior people giving up their home to move to a smaller dwelling, there you can buy "quality". I am sure you understand my point of view. My son always remarks, you get what you pay for. Alas, putting all the pro's and con's aside, I just love how you decorate your home, it is warm and inviting, and so lived in, and those naughty boys at the glass window wanting inside, two terrors. They have grown up so lovely, and I am sure they are a joy to have in the home. Can you imagine the sophisticated cate getting caught up in their rumbles? It would be a disaster. Many blessings, kind regards, take care, Elize.

[@TheReclaimedHeirloom]

Hi Elize! Good to hear from you! Ryan was thinking they made that feature so it was a "safety feature" so kids could not pull the drawers out to fall on them. But it was strange that we could not take them out, the fun about a DIY you don't know what you will experience! Yes the quality of furniture is not great, I like to get pieces that are solid wood which are so great to refinish! Yes those two are giving me and Ryan our workout, they are now experiencing our garden sprinklers and pulling them out! We will need to figure a way to stop that! See you next week!! ❤️🎨🙏

[@DownButNotOutYet]

@@TheReclaimedHeirloom Ryan's theory I think is correct and logical! Solid wood is great even though maybe old 'you' make it like new :) The dogs are like twins, double trouble :) but we love them dearly. Blessings

I’m definitely sharing this video with my friends. I have mention the highlight of this video is when your fur baby lick the spot that you had wiped off 😂 that part tickled me so. 🤩you rock!

[@TheReclaimedHeirloom]

Thank you 🙏 so much for your kind comment and “yes” you can apply a decorative transfer and I recommend to seal the paint with transfer already applied and also seal over the transfer! You can use a clear top coat or clear furniture wax on both paint and transfer to protect ♥️♥️♥️

[@maryellenyork2819]

I have used glaze to rag on with decorative painting on a wall. This was a pleasure to watch and encourages me to try this. The copper accents on the metal base: wow! (The glaze I used said it was toxic. That was years ago. Is there a safe glaze now?)

[@TheReclaimedHeirloom]

Hi Mary! They have changed the formulations since then, take a look to see if you can find near you a more eco friendly version. I hope this helps!! ❤️🙏🎨

Not sure how I missed this one on Saturday, Christina, but thank you for showing this easy makeover technique. WOW, what a great result!

[@gglove1949]

Someone else probably mentioned this already but rather than go through 117 comments I am going to let you know what I discovered about drawers that don’t seem to want to come out of a piece of furniture. If you reach up under the bottom of the drawer and follow the slide paths back as you pull the drawer forward you will feel a plastic flap. Just push it and that will release the drawer. I think this must be a safety feature designed to keep drawers from falling out if they are pulled to far forward. I scored a couple of nice pieces of furniture at the thrift store that screamed when you tried to open a drawer because the flap on one drawer was damaged.

[@TheReclaimedHeirloom]

Thank you 🙏 so much for your tips and sharing your experience. You are right about the safety feature of the drawers. ♥️♥️♥️
