Antique Double Entry Doors Restoration Part I #eastlake
Part I is a restoration of a set of Eastlake double entry doors from a mid to late 1800's Victorian side-by-side home (sometimes called a Double). The clients purchased these doors from their 'neighbors' who removed them from their own side.
This is truly a 'One Man's Trash is Another Man's Treasure' story! We hope to make these doors the beauties they once were; while honoring their history wherever possible.
Part II will be the completed project, so stay tuned here on my channel. If you follow me on Instagram I will share a photo of the doors installed when they finally go on. Wish me luck!

A Nod to Art Deco Design with a Hand-painted Flapper
Here is an old cabinet that I sawed the bottom off and turned into a tattoo'ed flapper-style piece. My inspiration was a tattoo of a vintage flapper by @andresinkman. I gave her my own take on style and totally redesigned this little bugger. This video was presented as part of a YouTube challenge that you can find here if you're interested:

Restoration of a Bedside Table
Here is a video I refinished. It is pretty old, possibly an antique but in poor condition. I tested it to see if it was lead paint, then I scraped and scraped and stripped and stripped to try to remove the finish. See what you think. Do you like the finished product? Leave me a comment. Have you tried this before?

India Boho Desk from a Vintage Vanity
Here is a vanity that was given to me by a friend who didn't want it. (I love making treasure out of trash.) I was inspired by a fellow YouTuber, Lel at Made by Marley (link below) who does fabulous India Boho art. This was a first time for me to do this type of furniture art. I love the way it came out. I hope the video/photos do it justice. I was really nervous at first because I didn't think it would come out nice. But, I absolutely love it!
Here is Made by Marley's YT link: https://www.youtube.com/@UCvAeb-rSBLp8ySkJTn-9VRw

Woodcraft in Walpole, MA
Here is a short video of a walk through the Woodcraft store. This is NOT a sponsored recording at all. I was searching for a store to purchase some specialty wood products the big-box stores don't carry and came across this company. I have not heard of them before and it looked promising based on their website and they were relatively close to where I was working. Have you been there? See if you also think it's a neat store!

One Small Stool: Mad Outcomes! Blending, Decoupage, Finger-Painting
Here is my work stool that I refinished. Now it's too pretty to use! I lightly sanded it and it basically had very little finish left on it. It took the paint quite nicely.

And the decoupage was filled an fingerpainted. Leave me a comment and tell me what you think! Thank you for watching~

Small Vanity - Big Looks!
Here is a small vanity that I refinished from plain and dull to fabulous! She is made of MDF and laminate with a wood frame. This vanity was difficult to wrangle a new look to, but she finally gave in and became pretty. Note, this work was part of an Ugly Duckling Fall Challenge among YouTuber furniture artists, among which I participated.
God bless you. We wish you all good & beautiful things~ Phil. 3:8

Here is an abstract painting I did of a poorly lit photograph I found online. Though the photo was poor, the effect was interesting and I really wanted to paint it the way it stood. I hope you enjoy it. I am currently working on more furniture refinishing content. God bless you and your family and thank you for watching.

This Cabinet is a Hot Mess! Part I: See Repair of an Old Walnut Sideboard
Here is a small sideboard that I got from an estate dealer. The piece has lovely bones, but needs extensive cosmetic repairs. In Part I you will see how I glue or patch (or both) the loose veneer, fill the many gouges in the wood and remove the old finish. I believe the wood is walnut, though I'm not 100% sure of that.

Refreshing a Plastic Planter with Colorful Paint!
Here is a quick refinish of an embossed plastic planter. I used several colors of chalk paint over this pale green planter. After painting it I highlighted the embossed leaves with black decorative wax. Tell me what you think of this change! Have you done similar decor changes of your own and if so, tell me about those!
