Entertainment Center Makeover ~ Furniture Repurpose ~ Furniture Makeover ~ DIY Buffet Idea

[@fondasarff9701]

I turned one into a Cat entertainment center with some cut out holes to climb through, carpet strips for scratching a hammock and high perch. It's fun to see it still entertaining.

[@Savedbygrace1960]

Mary, wow those pieces are gorgeous, I do believe you could build a house .

[@jaynebrown693]

Hi Mary ~ These are wonderful ! No I couldn’t do that, but I love watching you do all of this. Love the Buffet with the little open space under the top and those legs….love them in the wood tone ! Then the Apothecary Cabinet, how sweet is that ! I do thank God daily for the amazing gifts and blessing He has given people. He gave you this gift of seeing items used in amazing ways ! Not everyone has that gift. We are to share those gifts with others and you do….whether it is someone purchasing your items or watching you create. I find such joy and peace watching you. You are a blessing for sure ! I pray you have a blessed week ! 🙏🙏

[@patriciaoldfather6377]

I totally agree! 😊

[@kayeyeager8006]

What a wonderful compliment 😊 You are a sweetheart ❤️

[@geraldineklatt7914]

I love the green, I have several pieces my mother in law painted in a very similar green , I love them ❤. You are so clever to reuse that cabinet 🙏🙏

[@brendalowery6149]

You are just a true inspiration to women working from home

[@daphneschulz]

I love them both! The only thing I would do differently is maybe add some bun feet in a natural wood finish to the apothecary cabinet too! But like I said absolutely beautiful! ❤️❤️❤️

[@beverlyburns4281]

I was thinking that same exact thing!

[@chanaheszter168]

Yup! Bun feet or taller. Low glass equals tiny handprints. Just saying...

[@heidigresh2743]

Same thoughts… bun feet.

[@patriciaoldfather6377]

I was thinking some simple short legs. I definitely think it needs to set up off the floor just a little bit. About 6 inches would be great. Otherwise, it is beautiful just like everything she does! 👍🏻😊

[@boonedogglepip5463]

Yes, some kind of feet or legs but I think I would hang it on the wall, as is. Love it.

[@designabeej]

Love the white buffet 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼

[@angelahagood7143]

Another stunning job Mary! I wish I could see the potential in people’s off casts the way you do! Both projects are gorgeous! Thank you for teaching your craft to us!🙌🏻🫶🏻

[@LindaMay-zl1uu]

Always enjoy your beautiful creations. I know you have posted the answer to my question many times. But, what brand is your paint sprayer? Thanks again!

[@dennisoconnor4387]

What a Great choice on how to break that unit up. 💫👍🐿

[@lynanmeredith6268]

Complete awesomeness! I think the apothecary cabinet would be crazy cute with legs too!!!

[@georgiasmith9477]

I was thinking the same thing! 😅 It’s cute like it is but legs would take it to the next level. (Pun intended)

[@denisekuenzel9465]

Yes, it definitely needs legs. I also would like the other piece better if those legs were painted white to match.

[@dwagnerful]

What a wonderful way to repurpose an outdated entertainment center! Nice! The buffet could also serve as an island. 🥇

[@ElveeKaye]

One would never know that these beautiful pieces came from an old, outdated entertainment center! You're very talented, and how nice it must be to have all those tools and a big workshop.

[@mariecafe2934]

Getting paint on yourself makes it relaxing and fun

[@rosariosalazar5887]

Que hermosa transformación, gracias por compartir sus ideas, saludos desde Lima - Perú.

[@pamelamccarthy1412]

Am I the only weirdo geeking out on how many different saw horses she has? Those extra large chunky ones look hand made. Also, the projects are absolutely beautiful, and you are so talented.

[@dianeorth1199]

You are so blessed to be so good at woodworking!!!Both pieces are BEAUTIFUL!!!

[@cyndiaden9624]

The cabinet is adorable too my favorite color of green !!

[@cherylgoff8955]

WOW! These are wonderful makeovers, I love the colors of the Apothecary cabinet , very good choice with the green. The only thing I would do different is put short little legs of some type on it . 👏👏👏👏👏👏

[@emguilbe]

OMG 😳 Beautiful magnificent work! I admire you so much ❤ You’re awesome Whatta hardworking woman ❤

[@sandialexander9612]

Your creativity is amazing! Both of these pieces turned out beautifully, definitely something I would love to have in my home!

[@landomilknhoney]

I absolutely adore that you are wearing skirts through all of this... because I too wear dresses/skirts 24/7! I am so thankful that I found this channel. Everything is lovely, and feminine. Thank you Subscribe 🍁🍂🌾🔥

[@juliefromusa2245]

Beautiful job! Love the simplicity of the pieces and your vision of what to do with old furniture is astounding! ❤️

[@InsideOfMyOwnMind]

I would never have thought of leaving the legs unpainted but it works so well.

[@chattykathie7129]

Using the glass doors I think was the best choice I love the decal.❤️

[@jeannemarie2294]

Honestly Mary, another fantastic video!! 😊

[@shirleysimcoe9356]

Looks so nice Mary! The Apothecary cabinet is so nice, but I'm thinking it would look better with legs. Great upcycle.

[@lizpelletier7785]

I would even like the buffet to use as a TV stand!

[@purplerose4150]

I think this was one of my favorite videos you’ve done, Mary. How clever to use all the pieces of this cabinet and repurpose into two adorable pieces of furniture. Well done!!❤

[@ms.jenkinskbclassroom6066]

So much better to recreate something outdated but well-made!

[@sueepling7280]

What a transformation! You have such a great vision for furniture remakes, and talent for making them happen. Loved this video!

[@sheilagavin8281]

Loved this ❤ Yes you have a wonderful vision, skills and follow through. Thank you! Newly subscribed.

[@cindygibson5521]

I have a entertainment stand just like this one only made out of oak. I was going to tear it about n just use the wood for something else. Thanks for the great idea. 👍

[@margaretbroadway7358]

Mary, you have a God given talent in repurposing furniture. Your creativity is astounding and both pieces turned out beautifully.

[@jaymelang9610]

I'm glad to see you have your four-legged supervisor's approval! 😅

[@conniewojahn6445]

Several years ago, I redid a very nice oak entertainment center into a desk for my sister. It turned out much better than I thought it would, especially after I had so much trouble cutting areas which really weren't meant to be cut. You did a fantastic job!

[@meegankainady6136]

Your work is beautiful! I love the visual of a very talented lady in a skirt confidently and skillfully using power tools.

[@BobbiMac08]

I absolutely love the buffet! Especially the legs. What a great way to repurpose an entertainment center. I see the for sale pretty cheap on our marketplace since they're hard to get rid of.

[@kayeyeager8006]

Thats exactly how I collect most of my materials. This does give me a great idea for a couple vanities I have.

[@gunther13101]

Wow!!!! You are sooo creative and hardworking!!!! How do you even sleep at night….your brain must be constantly thinking about the projects you want to do!!!! I never tire of your videos💕

[@ChrisCalmtheCrazy]

I was having a meltdown when I saw you taking apart and painting that beautiful solid cherry cabinet. But, then I think you did a fantastic job repurposing an outdated piece. Well Done!

[@wandamendez2200]

You are an artist!!! God bless your hands, and the cat is simply beautiful 🐈

[@lindaduncan5541]

Mary, you certainly have a gift to see the potential in old discarded pieces. You give them new life. Both of these pieces are beautiful!

[@laurelgaskill9805]

Such a talented, ambitious lady. She is really an inspiration. 🤗 It is also a great help that she has a talented, woodworker husband, a supportive family.

[@kathrynschamanski3766]

What a creative way to repurpose an outdated piece of furniture! Great job, Mary!!

[@hopehouston9075]

Beautiful work! Totally unrelated, but your wearing skirts/ dresses that fall below the knee reminded me so much of my upbringing in church and my mother (RIP). For some reason, seeing you do this kind of work while still dressing like a lady (as my Mom would say) is inspiring. I totally rebelled against having to wear long dresses and skirts all the time and left the church as soon as I turned 18 over such a rule. Now, 30 years later, this is what stands out while watching this video. I don't know why...peaceandblessings

[@darlaslate3415]

You put so much work into this and came up with 2 absolutely beautiful pieces! Having built 2 log homes, I can really appreciate the hard work you do!!

[@kayeyeager8006]

Oh my my lady! I might have to pick your brain for some advice!

[@chrisprpich3278]

Absolutely beautiful Mary. Can’t believe you can take an old wall unit and turn it into something else. I love them both. Your so talented. Love all your DIYS. 😊❤️🇨🇦

[@HIGHLANDER_ONLY_ONE]

Very pretty!!! If it was in my home however, I would prefer the legs to be white as well 😊

[@diannamcbride1607]

Both pieces turned out beautifully, Mary. I love how you can look at a piece of furniture and envision it as something else.

[@christinarobinson1163]

How absolutely marvelous! To be able to save this piece from trash. And I just love your idea.Cheers!!!

[@nonisnest9718]

Is there anything you can’t do? Not only do you have the vision but you can also execute it! I love that you left the new legs on the buffet natural and the little green cabinet is so charming. You amaze me.

[@shawnapetty2383]

So beautiful! Love this so much. It’s so nice to see another foyer in skirts like me 😊 God bless you sister

[@annettemurielle]

Wow, Mary! You did it again! Hard to decide which I like best because they're both so beautiful and useful, but I really love the idea of the Apothecary. What a great place to store first aid supplies, etc. Mary, you never disappoint. ❤😊

[@jessieslay7422]

You are one smart lady. You make everything you do look so easy. Very nice !!

[@crystalparker2542]

This is definitely one I will have to show my husband to get him to understand what I have been wanting, and to show him why I want to pick up every old piece of junky furniture I see, lol. Gotta get him to understand the potential and nobody proves that better than Mary. These pieces are absolutely beautiful. The white piece is exactly what I have been wanting for my kitchen. Love the apothecary one as well.

[@reneewright6762]

Oh I love the buffet. Very stylish. WOULDN'T MIND OWNING THIS PIECE.

[@jills2944]

WOW! You are so creative and talented! These turned out amazing! I wish I had the ability to see something like an old entertainment center and have a whole new vision for it, and then carry it out. Thank you for sharing your talent, very inspiring.

[@janetj3072]

The two piece turned out really nice. I especially like the buffet.

[@dorothybahmuller44]

I couldn't wait to see your final show of your project. It's amazing!!! I would love it in my home. You have a vision for beauty. Thank you so much for showing us how to make something beautiful out of what most people would have thrown away 🥰

[@cass77788]

yes the paint made all the diff in the world is so fresh and beautiful now!!!

[@debbyyoung9454]

Mary, so creative and I absolutely love both pieces. You amaze me with your talents.

[@Annabelle-ve2vq]

I really believe God blessed you with a very creative talent that is absolutely remarkable that you redid that piece I love the nature legs next to the white the green apothecary cabinet is beautiful

[@kimwilson3831]

Wow, just Wow! I know they were a lot of work, but I just love watching all your transformations ❤️

[@Annabelle-ve2vq]

I would keep that one and sell the other buffet in your dining room that buffet is BEAUTIFUL

[@japspeedgirl6216]

I missed the painting videos so much, Mary. Thanks for that! Amazing transformation!

[@woolandwaterknits4801]

Very nice transition. The apothecary cabinet would look good with legs on it too.

[@cassandrasmith5517]

Gorgeous transformation! I’ve always wondered what could be created with the old clunky entertainment centers. I seen quite a few transformations but this is one of the best! Awesome job Mary🥰

[@susieminnick6801]

Little child's kitchen was one of the best I've seen

[@carolroeder9032]

Those pieces are SIMPLY GORGEOUS! I watched as you transformed that out dated entertainment center into two pieces of useful, beautiful furniture. Thank you for sharing your hard work and wonderful ideas.

[@sandykoenig1666]

This was a fantastic video, and just goes to show so many of us all the time it takes to repurpose furniture. You always do such a great job.

[@gwenjohnston-petrarch5071]

I love how you do your woodworking in a skirt!! Amazing!

[@WellEditedCo]

Beautiful job, Mary, and it was so fun to watch your process. I love both pieces! I would even use that buffet as a stand for a modern flat screen TV-it’s perfect for that too. And I think I’d put short-ish, skinny legs on the apothecary cabinet like many of them have. So cute!

[@patriciaoldfather6377]

Exactly what I was thinking. Already super cute, but it needs some legs.

[@annamaxflair]

lovely stuff, your fur supervisor is a snuggly looking soul

[@junehudgens]

How in the world do you look at the original piece and “see” two new creations that are so gorgeous and equally useful. They would grace any home with their attractive function! Your mind is amazing! Thank you for sharing and inspiring your adoring audience! After watching you work and create, my mind and body are ready to shift into “git ‘er dun” gear too! Watch out - - - Mary’s got me motivated! LOL!

[@kkrolf2782]

I can remember my Grandmother’s MOTHER had glass dishes just about that same color of GREEN you used on the smaller cabinet!!

[@tinasalobecke66]

Love how you made two beautiful pieces from that one outdated cabinet! You are so talented Mary 😁

[@Jodie29687]

👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼 I love both pieces!

[@Juliegriffiths1]

Love both of these make-overs Mary. Though I do think the smaller cupboard looks like a wall cupboard not a floor one - or it needs legs. Love the colours.

[@suzanneyorkville]

Wow, the buffet transformation had the wow factor.

[@NitrosMom074]

I am so impressed with both pieces. You have the most amazing imagination when it comes to up cycling. If I lived closer, I would absolutely purchase the buffet! It’s stunning!

[@wendyrumbel4354]

Mary your amazing ,I love everything you do little to no effort you make it look so easy, you sure do have a God given talent. Those pieces look beautiful. God Bless your beautiful family.

[@childoftheking9907]

Love it! They turned out so beautiful!

[@gabrielaguevara1349]

That looks amazingly beautiful

[@JolovesDecor]

Someone gave my mom a quilting hoop made out of cherry wood. It’s large. Thought I might want it to do something with. It’s Amish made from Ohio. I was thinking of just hanging it on the wall with a piece of my great grandmothers quilt. Do you have any ideas? I needed this video today. This is exactly what I want for my second bedroom being turned into a library room. Just love it Mary. You’re so creative. The bleed through or bubbling may be eliminated if you use a stain blocker primer, and a sanding, like Zinnsser Bin or another. I’ve had to do that. Have a blessed day Mary.

[@marleigh9194]

I have an old armoire I want to redo. I love your pieces.

[@o.k.athomediy5685]

This turned out beautifully!❤️❤️❤️

[@j.darrel517]

Amazing creativity and vision. I would not have even been able to conjure up an idea like this.

[@vickinoeske1154]

Love the idea of using the legs from a headboard and footboard for the buffet legs! The apothecary cabinet is adorable and the perfect color.

[@roxanasgo2634]

Encantador como quedó algo antiguo a tanta perfección, gracias por compartirlo. Saludos desde Argentina

[@broussardfamily1]

Absolutely beautiful, Mary. God has truly gifted you with such talent. ❤️

[@HocuspocusISeeAGhostus]

Mary you just amaze me with the things you can do. I can do all of the work, however I can't get the ideas to do it on my own. I have no insight. I just love your ideas

[@homethatilove4595]

Beautiful reuses of a oversized, clunky, dated cabinet. I LOVE watching you cut 🪚wood & spray paint to smoothly ~ but then I love the reveal in your 🌞, Bright, clean kitchen all Styled & Completed ❣️

[@jaytee2642]

Oh my goodness gracious! What an amazing transformation! You have some mad skills and I'm so envious. When you began dismantling it, I gasped! All I know how to do is sand and paint...and not very well, at that!😄 Good job, lady!👍🏻🥰

[@marilynyarbrough7951]

Mary, you are an extraordinary lady. Thanks for sharing your talent.

[@vickiewest1199]

Even if I’m painting a dresser I get paint on the top of my head. Love those pieces, and love the green color!🤩

[@merrilyhines5430]

Trash to treasure......you are an amazing young lady. The green cabinet stole my heart.

[@lauraparker7904]

Brilliant, love the look of unfinished legs that you used.

[@interestedobserver9352]

So pretty and so functional. I think the large piece would make a beautiful kitchen island.

[@leslijones4443]

Some of these entertainment cabinets are beautiful hardwood and very well made. Love the green but I wonder if you could redo one and leave the wood? Maybe stain it a darker color like espresso? My folks bought one in ‘ 83 that was top of the line; solid walnut. Looks like yours. They are gone now, but there’s just too much fine wood and craftsmanship on ours to just haul off. Love your ideas!

[@michellebilodeau3882]

I love that you didn't paint the legs. Beautiful job Mary.

[@hnycreek]

They are amazing!!!!! What a fabulous job!!!! I think you should put old legs on the apothecary cabinet too!

[@sandracox4341]

I did a similar project with an oak entertainment center I had. It had the leaded glass doors on it I repurposed the leaded glass doors with mirrored paint. I cut down the entertainment center because it wasn't in two seperate pieces and bought oak laminate to glue down on the top.

[@karasays]

Absolutely perfect!!!

[@Living_Your_Best_For_Less]

I am always left in awe when you do these videos! You really empower women, Mary! These both turned out fantastic!
