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!

[@tamarabrieling4361]

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

[@justinfincher2385]

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.

[@DesertDIY]

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

[@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.

[@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! :-)

[@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.

[@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!

[@Julie-bq6iz]

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

[@BA-ef4pr]

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

[@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)

[@AshHenson91]

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

[@TranscendFurnitureGallery]

Thanks so much! 😊 It was a blast!

[@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.

[@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

[@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! ❤️

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

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.

[@rottiegirl5052]

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

[@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!

[@sherrysmith332]

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

[@juliemanning4510]

I love that you separated into 2 nightstands!!

[@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.

[@sheilacowles]

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

[@TranscendFurnitureGallery]

Thank you so much!

[@vickiebelk635]

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

[@TranscendFurnitureGallery]

thank you so much!

[@elegantupgrades]

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

[@E3ECO]

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

[@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!

[@lindap9079]

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

[@VintageAndPainted]

Hehehe love the start Angie

[@legadillo]

You are the Queen of Clamps!

[@diywife]

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

[@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!!

[@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!

[@barbarasterling2120]

AMAZING idea to turn this piece into two separate nightstands!

[@ravenreese]

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

[@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!

[@loriharrisonwright9727]

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

[@832KJV]

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

[@shirleypedersen7406]

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

[@TranscendFurnitureGallery]

Thank you so much!!

[@RedDevilRaspberry]

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

[@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!

[@Pollywaffle777]

I’ve just gone through a lot of the $100 challenge videos. I have to say, I think you really did an amazing job. This was a real transformation with a beautiful, practical result that will not date! My favourite by far.

[@fuencislamatesanz3845]

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

[@brendalowery6149]

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

[@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!

[@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!

[@tonyayoung4663]

Absolutely gorgeous like it as the two nightstands

[@karencary3312]

So beautiful. Thank you for revealing the beautiful veneer.

[@tomz346]

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

[@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

[@debbiemelton4426]

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

[@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🙌

[@amygaitan840]

I watched them all. YOU WIN!

[@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. ❤❤

[@angelacorey4469]

All your pieces are works if art!!!!

[@vandahuman8522]

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

[@lionheart830]

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

[@alexandrade151]

Genius! You’re the winner in my book

[@TranscendFurnitureGallery]

Thank you! I appreciate that 🙂

[@just-a-crayon4]

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

[@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!!

[@mygodreigns9964]

Amazing! Love the commentary and thorough explanations!

[@AjsVintageDesigns]

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

[@ofeliavaldesjohnson2897]

Unbelievable! What a creative idea and they are beautiful.

[@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!!!!

Wow, looks so rich and sophisticated! LOVE!

[@WindQueen12]

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

[@TranscendFurnitureGallery]

Thanks for watching!

[@elizabethlevine4263]

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

[@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! 🤩

[@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!

[@lullakay1276]

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

[@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!

[@maureenbrown6610]

They are beautiful and much prefer the modern handles👍🏻

[@deefaye7336]

What a remarkable difference!

[@eileenball39]

These are gorgeous, perfect height for nightstands, the pulls look Deco!

[@TranscendFurnitureGallery]

Thanks so much for watching!

[@jennifersharp6624]

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

[@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! 😊

[@dznmvrk]

One of the best solutions to the $100 design challenges I’ve seen. They look fantastic!

[@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

[@normagrimstad8869]

My grandmother had a vanity similar to that. 1930s I would say. I love it.

[@TranscendFurnitureGallery]

Thanks so much for watching!

[@margomoore4527]

The pieces turned out very glamorous! And the narrowness of the pieces might really help out folks trying to squeeze in nightstands for both people into the space with the bed!

[@TranscendFurnitureGallery]

Great point! Thanks so much for watching! 😊

[@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

[@furniturefliphustle3531]

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

[@robertacomeau6504]

Inspiring repurpose furniture 💙 the nightstands . . enjoy challenges meeting new gifted artisans

[@marcellamance1812]

They're perfect! Gorgeous work as always.

[@49littlethoughts]

I love vintage furniture so much that I would've never thought to paint parts of a piece until watching your videos! I would've never thought to take it apart and make night stands either! I am always impressed how rich the wood grain looks when you're finished along with sections of a piece painted. The color you chose for this piece is so rich...I'm in awe!

[@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!! 😊

[@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!

[@sonkey1]

Absolutely love this project!!

[@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

[@jonlilley2832]

Bravo, Angie! You've got the magic touch! Your color choices are spot on and it shows! Beautiful work!

[@TranscendFurnitureGallery]

I'm so glad you like it! 😊

[@knut982]

Whoa who would have ever thought....love it love it love it!

[@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!!

[@RoeRoe123]

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

[@elizabethbooth8794]

Of great note, this challenge will of course add loyal subscribers. I’ve watched a hand full (dessert DYI, has such funny snarky comments- and a respectable make do attitude), the Hansen’s have added paint chemistry for me, Katie has a beautiful clean style, DIY housewife & her husband are a refreshing duo. But I’m adding you as well as 3-4 others to my list. You go girl, this mixture of paint &wood is a stunner. Elizabeth

[@janicealley5033]

Beautiful work. Can't wait to watch other flippers. Lovely 💘

[@thatoldaner]

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

[@dazedconfused5019]

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

[@teresacathey8189]

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