    Fabulous! Great tutorial. You made me miss having a little girl. My little girl is about to turn 46. Oh how i loved raising my daughter who is a wonderful human being. She was a mini-me just like your daughter. She painted so carefully! Loved that!!

    I know that I’m finding your video late but this is great. My ex husband refinished his grandparent’s entire vintage dining set and buffet as well as some other pieces using this technique more than thirty years ago. These were the pieces we used daily with our young family. You brought back some sweet memories. It’s a non aggressive way to customize pieces.

    I appreciate your channel, your tips and your humor. This tidbit is helpful when pouring paint from a can and it costs pennies. Use painters tape or shipping tape and create a "V" across the top of the can. At the base of the "V" leave a ⅓" or so tail so the paint flow is more controlled. On gallon cans I start near the handle area and I use enough tape to have 2" width. On smaller cans it doesn't matter as much. For me clean-up is easy, just thrown tape in the trash.

    Nicely done! I'm buying an Ashley solid pine distressed coffee table that has a heavier white wash and I want to remove it to put on an antique or colonial maple or ipswich pine semi stain. I did some stain removal with kleen strip a long long time ago so this was a perfect instructional video to refresh me and more!!!! Really great stuff, I loved your use of the foam roller, foam brushes even the razor blade holder you used. Really really good stuff, loved the entire presentation Shannon. But you can't fool us. We know your adorable little daughter is the brains behind this entire operation. Thanks a bunch!!!

    I started my painting program at a young age,too. The best teacher was just being given a paint brush and pot of paint and told to paint my bedroom floor. Started at the door where I was given my tools and worked to the window where I discovered...... That the shed porch roof could be a way for a rescue and climb down. No blame. Just: "Next time,Nancy ,start at the window and work to the door, maybe."

    Disposing of used stripping chemicals: Leave it in a well ventilated area (I have a safe place outdoors where animals cannot get into it). When it has completely dried out (COMPLETELY) - then it can be tossed into your regular trash. This goes for all chemicals used in furniture refinishing.

    I am stripping a dresser (like that with multiple types of wood), and came here for ideas. They are great, thanks. I just about fell off my chair when I saw the knobs you used, as they are the exact ones I have sitting here because they are the only (cheap) ones that work with odd & 2 sizes of holes! I wish I could also see what it would look like without the whitewash, as I love natural light woods too.
