You always look like you’re having so much fun creating these videos, rather than it being a grueling marathon to be finished. Thank you so much for including the little details of sanding in between every coat of paint, which leaves no one wondering how you got that buttery finish. The results are stunning!

I learned so much of the actual process of painting a used piece of furniture, from the video and your dialogue. I have been watching furniture painting videos for over two years, and learned a lot. But, I have never been shown and taught the actual steps from start to finish like you presented it. Confession time- I have supplies, but never had the courage to start, so I just watch. Not anymore because I now feel prepared from start to finish! Thank you soooo much!

I think it's great marketing that you staged the piece in different ways. The potential buyer can then see that it's just not a "seasonal piece", but there are other ways it can be used in the home. Very smart of you! As always, I look forward to your fables. They're fun, inspiring and great tutorials for those of us who want to learn more. Thanks so much, Andy for another winning video. P.S. I trust your fam got the outside of your home all decorated for the "spooky season" that is coming. It looks like they were all in to making it positively "chillingly scary".

Loved that crown!! And how special was finding that note? I think I would find a small frame for it and keep it forever. It's just one of those things that brings back all of the feelings of fantasy of childhood. The piece turned out beautifully. I am a fan of orange and my bedroom end tables are a sunset orange. I painted them that color in my senior year of high school. Every so often I say I'm going to paint them a neutral color, but that hasn't happened and I am now 69! They were the original end tables for my Grandparent's living room set when they married in the early 1900's. Most of my furniture is over 100 years old, being passed down from one generation to the next. Even my piano, which I don't play, was my Grandfather's who started the first orchestra for the public park district in Chicago in the early 1900's. There is so much history within these pieces that I can't imagine giving them away. When the time comes, they will be donated to charities so continue their journey of bringing happiness to their new owners. I think I will tape a note inside each one explaining their history, so whoever gets them will hopefully, think about what they have heard, experienced and lived. Thanks for bringing all of this back to me by reading that note. Congrats on the renewal of that piece and now it lives on to bring another family happiness and you were a part of that!! Take Good Care!
