So, agreed that we all can’t be doing this….so, someone should make an app where you shop for furniture that has been saved and restored rather than buying new…there are these incredible craftsmen from all over, it would be nice to find pieces in one place.

You would never think it is the same piece...you have the magic touch when turning trash in to treasure ❤

Haha thanks!! I was really amazed at how nice the wood was once it dried out. This piece had been sitting outside for years when I found it and I left it in my shop for about three or four months to dry out before shooting this video. Helped with the smell too!

So beautiful. You really turned this ugly duckling into a beautiful swan! ❤

This looks very similar to a restoration I did on my late mother's dresser, which was in horrible condition and missing a drawer. It looks more beautiful than the day it was purchased.
