[@13Delna]

Wow I love the way you pickup the dresser so easily!! 💪💪

[@tommas2674]

well you have a new fan.

[@kathleenspeegle3517]

Awesome! Love that smile 😊

[@ThatShabbyGuy]

Thanks 😁

[@myrabowman7456]

Great to watch you do that! I have a bedroom suite, very similar. I now have the courage to begin re-finishing it Thank You 😊 (I'm 75 and live in New Zealand) 🥂

[@ThatShabbyGuy]

Thank you for watching!

[@dottoxiii]

I liked the Liche color a lot!!

[@ThatShabbyGuy]

Stop that!

[@1976mcfarlane]

I love fusion and I do think that the built-in top coat is pretty good but I tend to add a extra top coat just for extra protection because I'm usually doing tables and dressers with it.. It's by far my favorite paint to use. I love it

[@jenniferrumsey9887]

We bought our daughter this dresser, tall boy, bed and nightstand to refinish in navy with light wood tops. It was so much work - you make it look deceptively easy! 😁

[@marylangner6994]

Finally! You are someone that does a great prep job! You really know what you are doing! Congratulations!!!

[@ThatShabbyGuy]

Thank you very much. :)

[@maryhernandez-pv1mg]

It's beautiful

[@kimmicakes]

aww first thing i have to say your smile is beautiful and i'm so happy you're comfortable in your on skin enough to lay on the dresser and flash those pearly whites to us cause i know you went thru alot of pain and suffering in the past to get to where you are today and your smile is everything now! second thing is i had the same furniture as a little princess growing up and i actually still have everything except the canopy bed but it's in storage and watching you do these gorgeous makeovers makes me wanna get my pieces out and refinish them and give them new life and purpose. thank you so much for sharing your knowledge and being such a wonderful makeover artist!

[@mariacastro2682]

I have the exact dresser at home..it needs refinishing..and you have given me ideas

[@ThatShabbyGuy]

Good luck! Thanks for watching.

Hi there! Great work on that dresser. 😊 Looks so nice. Good to see you. Peace and good fortune and good health to you and your family. ❤️ 😊

"....scrub any remaining stripper residue off my wood" 😄 I have to do that sometimes when i come home from the club. Great makeover. 👍

[@mckinneetv2000]

I did same dresser with four other matching pieces. Beige and dusty blue then put a light grey glaze over it all to give it an antique look. Then I handpainted all the trim parts that were high lighted in gold with silver metallic paint. They tirned out beautiful. Just as yours is.

[@debraneria4242]

I absolutely love how this provincial came out and Awesome job with the whitewash ..Hope your Easter was amazing...stay blessed 🥰👍

I Love it! You are very inspiring. My dining table I have is a darker oak look on it, and I am thinking of doing a light to medium grey driftwood look and a black base and chairs. I am 67 years old and I use to paint just my projects back in the day and this will be my first try on a table. One day soon hopefully.

[@mountainmama5269]

I have that exact dresser (with the mounted full length mirror). I purchased it off of Facebook marketplace from a neighbor for $200. Definitely my best "used" furniture purchase. The color of mine is much lighter than yours though & the center pulls are different. Still haven't decided if I can bring myself to paint it because it's already so beautiful on its own. Loved watching you revamp a beauty.

[@marilyndavis5798]

Thanks for the tip about using a moist sponge with water based poly. That is going to fix a problem I've been having 😊

[@ThatShabbyGuy]

Happy to help!

[@777Iwish]

Wonderful outcome👍

[@ThatShabbyGuy]

Thank you 👍

[@gladysanderson1351]

I really like the color of the Fusion paint. I would really like to try that on a piece of furniture. I would like to see the wood with the white wash in various lighting. Thanks for an interesting video!

[@VioletJoy]

Those provincial pieces are pretty much a dime a dozen, so it's fun to get creative. I like the color combo, which could go well with a variety of decor styles. You always do a great job. You are so freaking cute. I love the thumbnail 😂

[@WilliamsElaine]

Your work shows your excellent knowledge base. Not a fan of Provincial furniture but your workmanship in and of itself is beautiful. 😊

[@ThatShabbyGuy]

So nice of you

[@kaymack5304]

I really like the color pallet for this piece.

Great update to kinda boring piece. Also, great to see your beautiful smile!

[@Mrs.Frankenstein]

I have this exact same dresser that my aunt gave me when I was a kid. I finally painted it last year it's black now with some apricot wax in the curves! It's a beautiful piece!!

[@DCrjrjr1]

Gotta love Montgomery Ward French Provençal, kidding aside, your update looks great

[@eternalfizzer]

I love it! Thank you for explaining your whitewashing process - I'm going to give that a try on a smaller project.

[@ThatShabbyGuy]

Have fun!

[@trudyeby464]

Nice work, I appreciate all the sanding and willingness to try something new. Suggestion, don't wring out the sponge and you will get less bubbles. I put some product on a waxed paper plate and just dip.

[@gigidtx]

Looks great, a departure from your usual finish of spray and glaze. I like the look and just stripped the exact 9-drawer dresser and have been overthinking my finish but since it will be in my office I am taking my time deciding. I believe I may go with the whitewash because it is so on-trend and I can always update later. Thanks :)

[@davidjackson4762]

You do an such beautiful job taking something that is "brown" and dated by cleaning, sanding, filling in imperfections, priming, hand painting or spraying three coats of paint and then several finish coats. Lots of labor and the result is amazing. Then you spray the original pulls and add a little rub and buff... to me it takes away from all the work you have done.

[@Ell5589]

Beautiful job! And you’re adorable

[@today7518]

So hilarious I got an entire set of this exact style when I was in elementary school. However, remember was disappointed because it was the white and gold painted style. Always wished furniture was wood instead of whiteish. And, here you are switching from wood to painted. Guess everyone has their own ideas of beauty.

[@camnsprencheria3225]

Gosh you still look brand new since you had your teeth fixed and fit as!👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏oh and the piece of furniture is beaut too!

[@ThatShabbyGuy]

Oh this footage is from my live stream in October. I've gained a bit back since then lol. Once I was able to eat regular food in November I went all out 😂

[@tequeena]

6:13 It sounded like you were trying not to laugh through the majority of that voice over, me too 🤣 I still like the drawers 👍😊

Really nice! Love the updated look!

[@ThatShabbyGuy]

Thank you! Cheers!

[@bluecurlygirl]

Where have I been? I've been missing so much of your videos dude. I love fusion. That built in top coat is great. I painted my kitchen cabinets using it and I have two kittens who jump from the fridge to the top of the presses and use the side of the press as leverage with their back paws and claws and so far no scratches and they're a year old now so..... Love the dresser and really cool of your subscriber to donate it. We all want donations like that.

[@ThatShabbyGuy]

Good to hear from you! Thanks for your support!

[@bluecurlygirl]

@@ThatShabbyGuy I've missed you. And I've missed the fun in the live chats. Looking forward to the next one.

[@ThatShabbyGuy]

I have a new video. Did you see it? Did ya? Did ya? 🤓

[@kimberlynolan2573]

😮 O my! It's gorgeous 😍

[@J2_G]

I back tracked to this video from the pink version because I have had the nightstand that accompanies it since the 80's. It is a Montgomery Ward that belonged to my Father. It was repainted a glossy black in the 90's as it remains. The bottom drawer gets sticky sometimes and it could probably use another refinishing. I think it is a classic look and a testament to how things were made back then.

[@WilldoAldone]

Loved it. Different for you, but you did great.

[@roshawndalight7470]

Great video and love the finish on the piece. 💖💖💖

[@ThatShabbyGuy]

Thanks! Good to see you again!

[@jeanine6492]

[@sistersarann3819]

Nicely done, gave it a new fresher look. Love the whitewash with the lichen color. You inspired me to paint my old oak table with the same colors. Thank you :)

[@ThatShabbyGuy]

Awesome! Thank you!

[@Risingphoenixx66]

I like every project you do, this one turned out nice as well. I only use Fusion if I want something black. I prefere chalk paint with wax. I wax fusion also, works very well. I,m happy for you that you have such more confidence now and I can see that you,re feeling so much better after the dentist procedure , anyways, love from The Netherlands

You do good work....I get hooked on watching these type of shows. I always liked repairing and restoring furniture and then putting the finish to it..I am getting to old now hehe..I never got around to using epoxy that looks like fun and aggravation but you do it well. Keep up the good work I will keep watching.

[@periux100]

That is beautiful and is a fast seller right know🤔

[@debsmith2269]

The Lichen and white wash go well together. Although I'm usually drawn to strong colours, I prefer light colours in a bedroom.

You make the stripping look so easy. I hate that stuff. It’s so sticky. I’ve had a lot of success with Fusion. DIY paint is really good as well.

[@sandsmom36]

That turned out great! Where do you get the "toasty" sponges? (And please don't make us wait another month between videos!!

[@ThatShabbyGuy]

I get them at a store called Daiso. I bought a bunch of them last time I saw them. They are hard to find. Also, I typically post once every 2 to 4 months so monthly is a step up 😂

[@michelledavis7333]

I would like to see if you could recreate a piece of furniture that you find online that's worth a lot of money, with an old piece of furniture that needs a lot of love. It would have to be something that looks close to the furniture you need to recreate. This is a challenge for you. Can you, do it?

What finish did you use for your poly?

[@Bob-mk4cd]

Great job. How long did it take from start to finish?

[@ThatShabbyGuy]

I actually did this project during live streams (which is why you see me talking and laughing throughout the video)over the course of about a week. There is lots of chatting with viewers and other distractions so timing this one isnt really possible. Something like this would typically have like 4 to 6 hours of labor invested in it over the course of 2 to 3 days

[@ivaneiarocatelli6296]

[@maddyz.5843]

Okay do you use actual towels or like shop paper towels? It looks like you use real towels and I don't understand how you wash them after glazing

[@ThatShabbyGuy]

Actual towels. They get tossed. Putting oil based stain-soaked rags in the washer would get me kicked out of the house.

[@LilyBecca]

I'm not a huge fan of paint wash. I think it will end up looking dated. I have to say, it does look amazing on this piece, like it was meant to be. It's perfection!
