Bravo 👌🏼 Love the attention to details and the touch up work on the trim. Great teamwork and what a beautiful result! Thanks guys for doing this and for the shoutout . I definitely accept the challenge ;-)

[@FurnitureWarriors]

We'll be waiting! Thanks again Jay!😁

[@dbird1584]

Can't wait to see what you makeover Jay... whatever it is will definitely be a show stopper!🥰

[@claire.mrs.t]

You all do amazing transformations. I love watching what you do and your attention to detail. Can’t wait to see Jay’s painted piece 😍

[@elaineholthaus2298]

Shenanigans! 😂 I remember this one! You just rolled with dropping an open can, and double-teamed a drawer. Sweet memories 😊

[@Flippingdrawers]

good call Cindy with the arrow 👌🏼

[@hariszaine4815]

Amazing workmanship/Restoration ..Love and Respect from Germany 🇩🇪.

[@Flippingdrawers]

love the wax on the inside !

[@FurnitureWarriors]

The drawers slide well now! Thanks!😮

[@kathrynkneeland7179]

I love black stain, I use it myself. It looks wonderful with the lighter stain. This desk is just beautiful. Great work.

[@FurnitureWarriors]

Thank you Kathryn!

[@MaureenTheTemp]

I have not seen a better example of two different stains complementing each other so well - this is just a gorgeous piece!!

[@FurnitureWarriors]

Thanks so much 😊

[@CopperCactusDIY]

I'd never know this was your first full restoration like this. You two did a phenomenal job! Every detail was just so spot on. Hated watching those splashes hit the wall though. You could always faux the whole wall in wood grain 🤷‍♀️ My favorite way to fix things, cover it up 🤣

[@FurnitureWarriors]

HAHA....Faux wood grain on the wall was my first thought too! Thanks Jenn!

[@barbaragrace1992]

Fabulous!!!

[@FurnitureWarriors]

Thank you!

[@kathleenchalmers8234]

Very very nice. You did the old girl proud!❤

[@kaycox5555]

You two are a cute, loving couple! You knocked it out of the ballpark on this renovation! Lovely.

[@FurnitureWarriors]

Thank you!!

[@catykearney1887]

What an excellent outcome!

[@carolinedubose5136]

That desk looks so classy now!! Great job!!

[@FurnitureWarriors]

Thank you!! 😊

[@jencrosby6065]

Loved Cindy’s giggles! Turned out beautiful!

[@FurnitureWarriors]

Thanks so much 😊

[@elainestorberg1737]

This is a stunningly beautiful result. You really honored the piece. I love your channel. You show the realities of refinishing furniture, while instructing and even entertaining. Are we furniture nerds?

[@tomcurtis197]

Nice job! Love and use Howards ptoducts alot! Ive been watching Jay @ Flippin drawers for quite awhile! You're right, his workmanship is oustanding!

[@galady8632]

The black stain, woodgrain and gold hardware gives the desk a classic, timeless look. Reminds me of the woodwork in yachts from 40+ years ago. (Remember the original series of James Bond movies? Seriously, that is my yatch exposure. I have not ever owned a canoe.) I now see both black and white stain in my near future. The end-result is truly outstanding! Cindy and Jim have an amazing eye for design and never disappoint.

[@FurnitureWarriors]

Thanks so much! We don't always score, but we can always redo what doesn't work!😁

[@kellihull7600]

Turned out absolutely GORGEOUS!!!!! Now to strip my freshly painted childhood desk! LOL

[@FurnitureWarriors]

Oh My! What have we done!🤣 Thanks Kelli!

[@loismaddux4800]

Beautiful work! Very nice transformation!❤️❤️

[@FurnitureWarriors]

Thank you! 😊

[@cynhiacations9879]

This piece is absolutely gorgeous. You two have outdone yourselves.

[@FurnitureWarriors]

Thank you!

[@A-Minor-Music]

This is my favorite look. Woodgrain framed with black paint. Drawer pulls are the perfect touch.

[@FurnitureWarriors]

Thanks Evie!

[@lisafrancis7534]

Cool Sheryl! Go for it!😀

[@Flippingdrawers]

watching ;-)

[@helenpowell1394]

What a handsome piece! Truly enjoy watching your video's, listening to your banter and laughter brightens my day. Thank you 💐💐

[@FurnitureWarriors]

You are so welcome and thanks for watching Helen!

[@jennymilner5500]

love, love, love your channel! Y'all crack me up sometimes! I love that your videos are real and not all edited to death. I also love that you restore furniture, not just slap a coat of chalk paint on it!

[@FurnitureWarriors]

Thanks Jenny! (On occasion we do paint pieces, but usually not vintage ones!)😀

[@sandramoore7159]

Just discovered your channel, and so glad I did. I'm binge watching! Not only are your projects gorgeous, but I love your tips and explanations. I've watched many other channels and yours is one of the few that actually teaches. I don't learn much, if anything, from those that just do timelapse with music, and I get impatient with those that hem and haw and repeat the same thing over and over. You hit exactly the right balance, I've already found a wealth of usual information, without a lot of unnecessary (and frankly, boring) chatter. Perfect!

[@FurnitureWarriors]

Welcome and Thank you Sandra!

[@thecourtlyalchemist]

I like the two-tone staining effect very much. I don't see enough of that. Cindy's laughter was my favorite part though. She got me started as well.

[@FurnitureWarriors]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@evakiran7543]

Awesome, I love every piece you redo.

[@FurnitureWarriors]

Thanks so much Eva!😁

[@marynapier2007]

What a beautiful transformation.

[@FurnitureWarriors]

Thank you Mary!

[@willow_alley]

I think Jim should just sign the wall and call it “art.” 😁 The desk is so elegant now! Great work!!

[@FurnitureWarriors]

🤣🤣🤣🤣 Thanks Lizza!

[@paulag1109]

I love the two tone stain, it looks so great.

[@FurnitureWarriors]

Thanks Paula!

[@bluecurlygirl]

Beautiful job folks. Love what you did here. A lot of detail on the trim. Great job.

[@FurnitureWarriors]

Glad you enjoyed it! Thank you Emer!

[@frelnc]

So you changed the color of the wall. I like the new color. And I LOVE the redo. Perfect restoration. I have a little desk just like this that I have been wondering what to do with. This helps me decide.

[@beulahmcgraw5213]

I hadn't thought about using trim like that around a desk. The next time I get a piece that would take something like that, I'm using that idea. Lovely piece. Doesn't have to be a desk anymore.👍

[@FurnitureWarriors]

That was original to the desk! We thought it was pretty cool too!😀

[@dawn5227]

Love what you did with this desk. Very elegant and so nice to see the wood

[@FurnitureWarriors]

Thanks so much!

[@lyndamooney1592]

Love the natural wood .

[@FurnitureWarriors]

[@SadieBennettBennettVeelakoko]

Awesome job. I have a desk just like that and I wanted to paint it for my grandson.

[@kklunker]

Beautiful! You two are an AMAZING team. Taking the trim off is such above and beyond, but the beautiful end results always shows in your pieces.

[@FurnitureWarriors]

Thank you!!

[@FurnitureWarriors]

Thank you so much Cindy!! We're glad we accepted too!!😀

[@cathyjackson5959]

I love y’all’s work-especially the repairs. Learning a lot of diff things like applying mineral spirits to bare wood before the gel stain!!! Thank you so much!!!!

[@FurnitureWarriors]

Your Welcome! Thanks for watching Cathy!

[@zeeprather4120]

I've been a fan of you two for a while. You're both very authentic, and it makes your flips and videos a genuine joy to watch. I enjoy how much attention you give to the details and prep. Have a great holiday 🤗

[@FurnitureWarriors]

Thanks Zee! You too!

[@jaxturner6896]

Wonderful piece ! Beautifully done!

Gorgeous 😍. I love everything about this piece.

[@FurnitureWarriors]

Thanks Marie!

[@conniefortner8750]

Now it’s beautiful! Good job.

[@FurnitureWarriors]

Thank you! 😊

[@HealthyHousewife]

Soooo beautiful!! I am new to refinishing furniture. I casually started about a year ago. My goal this year is to really dive deep and get better. I do quite a bit of painting but your desk has challenged me to contemplate staining. I love the look of stain, it is very difficult to do. I always end up with a drip mark, even on a flat surface.

[@MayndaY666.]

What a transformation, love it.

[@FurnitureWarriors]

Thanks Maynda!

[@lydiakinnaman1106]

Like your smiley face. Lol. Nice job. Love the stain combo. Beautiful.

[@FurnitureWarriors]

Thanks Lydia!

[@_JanetLouise]

beautiful! Happy Holidays!🎄🌲🌴

[@FurnitureWarriors]

Thank you! You too!🎅🎄❄🎄🎅

[@zhirra29]

You’re a great team.👍 A lot of work. Amazing.

[@FurnitureWarriors]

Thanks Lizeth!

[@ReconstructingEmily]

Beautiful work. I'm a big fan of black stain. You should try it on oak. Really makes the grain and texture pop. Also the fact you didn't need to mute when your stain splattered your wall, you're a Saint. I had to mute myself lol 😆

[@FurnitureWarriors]

Not sure how I didn't have a few choice words come out!🤣 Thanks Emily!

[@ednaalegria8710]

Beautiful! I love the way you two have such fun working together, great job!

[@FurnitureWarriors]

Thanks Edna!

[@lashondascruggs8809]

Love it, the black stain was very sharp

[@FurnitureWarriors]

Thanks Lashonda!

[@suecapra5005]

Looks like the piece went through a tornado! Great job over taking the beast!!!

[@FurnitureWarriors]

Thanks 👍

[@ricjamil3073]

It looks fabulous!

[@Boomerinthewild62]

Best laugh of the afternoon -- the smiley face next to the sander 😂😂😂😂

[@FurnitureWarriors]

That was originally brought to our attention by Angie @TranscendFurnitureGallery . Since then, we haven't been able to "unsee" it!🤣

[@Flippingdrawers]

buttload is a very appropriate term for this ha ha now you know how I feel lol

[@FurnitureWarriors]

Yes we do! A lot of work but so worth the end result! Thanks Jay!😁

[@cathyknapp9360]

Oh my goodness what a beautiful piece I just love your channel you and Cindy work so well together remind me of me and my husband we have so much fun doing things together what an awesome job with that stain and paint together when I seen the stain on your wall my heart sank however you guys do a great job you pay so close tension to all the detail and anyone that buys your pieces are lucky to have them God bless you and Cindy both and Merry Christmas thank you for sharing

[@FurnitureWarriors]

Thank you Cathy, and Merry Christmas to you and your family too!🎅🤶🎄🎄

[@jennifermuschiano1070]

Beautiful work we are getting ready to do a desk like this. I normally paint but my husband wants to stain this one. I was Leary of doing so. But after watching your video. I am convinced it is a great idea thank you.
