Finally, a video about restoration where furniture is really restored, and not just painted up under the guise of restoration

[@FlowerGirl8]

THANK YOU FOR NOT PAINTING OVER BEAUTIFUL WOOD, and keeping original hardware/pulls, MAGNIFICENT!

[@Flippingdrawers]

Thank you very much!

[@Acehigh-Jenkins]

I love how you always do what my dad would call “a proper job”! You do it right every time, no corners cut! It’s a rarity today and so satisfying to watch!

[@joanthompson4559]

This is the biggest reason I watch this. Otherwise, in my case, it would be a waste of my time. I enjoy this process immensely.

[@Flippingdrawers]

Thank you 😊

[@sunnycadwallader2873]

This was truly a labor of love. That poor piece looked like a truck ran over it. Needed so many repairs. Result is beautiful. Hope you enjoy it for many years.

[@cynthiasteelman6795]

Absolutely gorgeous. I love how you basically touched every inch of the piece, but never once lost the original feel it was meant to have.

[@Flippingdrawers]

🥰 thanks ☺️

[@user-iw7bb1oj3b]

[@kathleenplett1101]

❤another beautiful piece👏👍

[@cynhiacations9879]

Jay you proved to me again that you are the master. Such talent and attention to detail stands out. I love how you used the old ways to execute a repair instead of taking the easy way out. You really deserve a larger following than what you've got. The piece looks fantastic.

[@Flippingdrawers]

Wow, thank you!

[@cmpeacoe]

It is not insane you are at almost 40K. You do awesome work and that number is going keep going up. And I love how you take care of the whole piece, inside and outside. It is completely refreshed.

[@Flippingdrawers]

Much appreciated

[@hannanjaimet17]

I love his attention to detail that he does. He makes his videos so inviting. Like what is he going to do to revitalize the project. To me he makes it look so easy. Take off paint or whatever, sand, top coat = masterpiece. I just love watching and rewatching his videos. Always amazed by him. The kitties are such a ➕. God bless.

[@Schnooks83]

I am mind blown! To see how you took that broken piece of furniture and turned her into the magnificent beauty that you did is awe inspiring! Your attention to detail is fabulous! So happy that you used wax and let the wood shine through!

[@leslieblackshear802]

Agreed!

[@pattyharrison6386]

Sad lil broken down girl, and now look at how pretty she is❣️ I me WOWZERS, you work miracles Sir, the before pictures are just so sad❣️ Normal people wouldn't know where to start, but you jut went at her and , I mean, WOWZERS, She's the belle of the ball now, just beautiful, stunning in fact. I wish you lived here so I could get one of your projects

[@lynneschauder1476]

I so agree with Teresa capturing my thoughts exactly. I love the grain in wood pieces and thank you sooo much for NOT painting it, as many do these days.

[@blacksorrento4719]

Once again I am so pleased that you and this damaged credenza crossed paths. Love your attention to detail, and the fact you only waxed it 👍 plus your quiet way of going about your work. Definitely a piece worth keeping, you have a good eye and a kind heart, you paid the owner something 👏👏👏

[@Flippingdrawers]

Thank you 🙏

[@flipnawesome5756]

It looks beautiful! I often wonder how people let such wonderful pieces get so damaged. Luckily you found it and had a vision for it.

[@Flippingdrawers]

🥰

[@user-nk6if2pi3x]

You are definitely the gold standard of restoration.

[@sheilatodd7280]

I said it before...but I absolutely love the care and gentleness you use to bring these pieces back to life! Great looking piece. And I love the contrast of the two colors. Beautiful!

[@charleenwright4336]

Wow! You really got the most out of that spare piece of oak. Beautiful restoration!

[@eleniemmanouilidou24]

Wow! Just wow! This piece was so broken, but you managed to make it look brand new again! I always enjoy watching you taking care of the back, the bottom and the inside of every piece! Much love from Greece!

[@Flippingdrawers]

Thank you so much 😀

[@judithgaar217]

I so admire the pride that you take in your work. So wonderful to see. This piece is now beautiful and I liked how you left some parts dark. You have the hands of a craftsman and the eye of an artist. Be proud.

[@Flippingdrawers]

You are very kind Pamela. Thank you

[@vickiel914]

Yup! You made it beautiful! I'm glad you are keeping this one. It is stunning! Great job! 👍🏻👍🏻

[@suzannerobinson6384]

Excellent restoration! Love the natural look and no paint!

[@lj5801]

Beautiful. I'm always happy when a restorer keeps the wood and its grain and doesn't paint over it.

[@williamsiyanko4631]

Jay you’re extremely talented and you are a very smart person and love your work on your furnitures . Each one are unique and very well done.

[@tlbberger3081]

The piece is beautiful. My goodness the amount of work put in to it is incredible.

[@Flippingdrawers]

Thank you ☺️

[@rettpanda6203]

@@Flippingdrawers how many hours would you say you have into this piece? Amazing work

[@arlenelamont5610]

Seeing this beautiful piece saved from the dump is so inspiring. It probably would have been a lot less work if you had painted it but SO glad you didn't. Always enjoy watching you work and seeing the outcome.

[@Flippingdrawers]

thank you

[@rachelwhissell6982]

Love when a piece is restored to its natural state. Love those handles. Beautiful.

[@mfrmxcv]

Good to see the little samurai is back 😊

[@karenlindsey9967]

Absolutely gorgeous transformation…you really brought this one back from looking like firewood to something from an architectural magazine.

[@Flippingdrawers]

You’re very kind 🥰

[@rnspowell]

As soon as I saw this I thought wow this is going to be a job, but I knew that you would make this piece beautiful again. I can understand why you wanted to keep it. It is absolutely gorgeous. Fantastic job.

[@tanyaprice202]

Lucky man! All that hard work paid off in a beautiful piece!

[@shirleyannconfer9651]

The black wax provides such a beautiful contrast. You quite literally breathed new life into this piece.

[@spawnsmom9386]

Wow. What a transformation. I think most would have turned that into firewood, but you saw the beauty and potential in it. Your attention to detail sets you apart from many restorers. Congratulations on passing 40,000 subscribers. Love your videos.

[@Flippingdrawers]

Thank you very much!

[@pam1366]

The amount of time you spend on each project, you must really love what you do.

[@Flippingdrawers]

yes I do ;-)

[@fantail75]

Beautiful, the way you work with contrast and different finishing techniques. You appear to follow the natural, existing cues. I love that.

[@user-oy4co2vy6i]

Очень нравится смотреть как вы даёте второй шанс красивой мебели, стать очень красивой. Вы волшебник!

[@lyndabridges719]

Absolutely beautiful!! I love how you pay so much attention to the restoration of a piece of furniture rather than just a quick fix. You most definitely have a talent for this type of work. Looking forward to more of your videos.

[@Flippingdrawers]

Thank you 🙏 my last two videos are quite different. I tried carving but have several restorations to watch. Enjoy

[@Schnooks83]

If this shows up twice , I apologize. I am mind blown! To see how you took that broken piece and turned her into the magnificent beauty that you did is awe inspiring! Your attention to detail is fabulous! So happy that you used wax and let the beauty of the wood shine through!

[@Flippingdrawers]

Thank you Teresa☺️ much appreciated

[@debsmith2269]

It was so nice of you to give the previous owner some money given the condition of this piece and knowing how much work you had ahead of you. You've certainly brought the poor old piece back to life. It really looks great now

[@Flippingdrawers]

Thanks Deb 😉

[@matildanorberg]

That old time trick for clamping was so smart! I really enjoy watching your journey through each piece of furniture, and the end result always makes me smile… beautiful results every time 🤩

[@kathyl5610]

You are amazing! I hope you took a picture of it and sent it to the lady that you bought it from so she could see the beauty that you restored! I am always thrilled with your attention to detail and taking care of every piece on the piece of furniture. Everything and every piece deserves to be loved and restored. Thank you for your fantastic video and I am so thankful that I found your channel! Take care, stay safe.

[@Flippingdrawers]

I did ;-) thank you so much. Glad you enjoyed it

[@carla109]

This is beautiful restoration! I love the dark accents and the luscious color of the beeswaxed oak. Your old-school technique for clamping was awesome. Thanks for the always sharing your talent with us. 💕

You NEVER disappoint! Another beautiful transformation. No matter if you are going to sell the piece or keep it for yourself, your attention to detail is mind blowing! You might be surprised that you’re closing in on 40K but I’m not. Your videos are amazing!😊

[@cajsheen2594]

The person you got this piece would be amazed to see this transformation, I'm sure! ❤ XXX

[@williambabbitt7602]

You take an old piece from the garbage or from someone else you restore its life and you bring out the life it had before it and you make that life means something when you restore it. Because like people furniture also has life and is damaged by life and how it’s treated. Somehow I think there is a natural appreciation for all the work you do on the furniture, you pleat and repair and restore. Thank you very much for your videos, I only wish that I could on one of your pieces!

[@TheCraftyMagnolia]

Okay, I've been watching your videos for awhile now and I have to say this is the one that impresses me the most! I love seeing you grow as a hobbyist by adding in full restoration! The replacement wedge, plugs, and choice of stain have made me want to subscribe to your channel all over again!! You're brilliant!

[@Flippingdrawers]

Oh wow, thanks ☺️

[@toni5810]

I was waiting for you to post another flip. What a beautiful restoration and a LOT OF WORK but you didn't disappoint. Impressive and so glad to see your channel is growing at a steady pace. Your work is worthy of more subscribers. I appreciate your calming voice and no distracting music! THANK YOU!

[@Flippingdrawers]

Thank you Toni☺️

[@angelaarena5208]

One thing I luv about you working on these amazing pieces is the fact you take the time to clean and sand the whole thing which many people don’t do,they put most of their effort on the exterior and forget the inside and the back and that drives me 😤🤯crazy. Thanks for doing the right thing it’s awesome watching you at work 👏👏👏😁🇦🇺

[@OVHabitats]

I love the attention to detail. I wish there was a craftsman that could restore an old body as well as you restore a vintage piece of furniture. LOL

[@vivmatto725]

[@fredfredburger5521]

Your work never ceases to amaze me. I'd have took one look at this when you started and thought throw it out, it's only fit for firewood. Then you somehow manage to turn it into a magnificent piece of furniture that anybody should be proud to own.

[@andreasmarinakis609]
