As someone who graduated from high school in 1974, this whole look is very familiar to me. I died laughing over your description of the pulls as “bossy”…and they did have a rather commanding presence. However…being the fossil I now am, I’m in a position to give you a bit of “historical perspective” on that particular style. In the late ‘60’s and a good portion of the ‘70’s, Spanish style was really popular. Those pulls remind me of the hardware on those pieces deemed “Spanish” back in the day. Love what you did with it…your lime wash gave it the Prozac needed to take the edge off and soften it into something one would want to invite into one’s home. Prior to your lovely treatment…it looked like it needed to go to charm school. Love how you reformed it!

@@FurnitureFablesbyAndy I appreciate @KarenLindsey's perspective. I'm a child of the 60's and grew up in Texas. My parents purchased a complete bedroom set in the early 70's that was that chunky style with that "bossy" hardware (she still has it and I'm dying to get my hands on it!). Mom decorated in Spanish style, which at the time was all the rave. I always thought this was because we lived in Texas, but I know now it actually was a trend of the times. BTW, I soooo appreciate you saving this album collection and the cabinet piece. Not sure what generation you are from, but I could see that you appreciated all that you found in the collection. In my opinion, there's no better music generation than the 70's, okay and the 60's too! I think we could be friends!

So you have been a complete joy to discover! Better than any Netflix or TV series.... You are truly an artist and the makeovers always leave me speechless. I don't know if its just because we like the same styles, but I feel like we are besties and I'm consulting with you on a project... many times I have watched flippers and then did not care for the end results. But with your fable set ups, related glossary of terms and names of characters used, and then the big ending, I just completely smile and talk back to you with so much cheesy verbiage, than if anyone saw me they would think I've lost it!

Someone has probably already mentioned this but my tip for the wallpaper: apply it to the back before you reapply it. I will actually remove the back to apply the paper rather than wrestle it in. I guess you pick your poison. I would rather remove/reapply the back than wrestle the paper. Great job. I have also seen people use a wire brush before the liming wax. it opens the oak grain and makes it more receptive to the wax. I have tried it but I cannot say it changed how easier it was with the wax application. I wasn’t too aggressive. That hardware came out amazing. You have such an artistic eye.

You just brought me back to my childhood! My mom would play all her favorites on our record player, which was housed in an oak record cabinet - straight out of the seventies. Please play us a Joan Baez classic, "Diamonds and Rust," one of my absolute favs to this day. So happy I found your channel! 😊

Thank you ❤ a great restoration - I grew up with vinyl records (and shellack ones before that) in the sixties & seventies and we were always told to store records completely vertical so they would not warp. You could buy (ugly!!) plastic record holders which would keep about 20 records vertical without leaning on each other. I can remember orange, white and black holders…

Oh my! I love the liming wax look! I found this channel as I was looking for ways to repurpose an old wardrobe/armoire into a bar. Thank you for being so instructive along with your nerdy wit. I think I may just give that liming wax a go!
