New subscriber here, I love how you did this. The screenshots help those of us who want to recreate this. And I’m obsessed with the way you were doodling the plan in the beginning.. I wish my journal looked like that. Also, can I just use a warmer white instead of going back in the end? You should also add the cost without the tools! I think I saw it in one of your shorts but, it would be nice in the video too.

Wow, you really created an awesome hack. Thanks for sharing! I’ll give this a try

Looks better than the $3, 000 dresser to be honest.

New to your channel and I love it! Great job on these dressers! Great inspiration for my bedroom makeover!

[angelabounds]

OK, this is amazing! thank you for coming up with this idea and sharing! I have one question, did you apply the poly urethane to the burlap or just the wood. thanks again for a great diy. I'm subscribing to you as my first YouTube subscription!

Nice job! Did you fill the brad nail holes? Was there a reason why you didn't connect the units? Any ideas on how you might eliminate the gap on top?

[ftuzzcv]

Did you sand both dressers? I ❤️ this!

[paulette]

Kelly, beautiful work, what kind of paint brush did you use?

[gooddaymate]

At 5:15 when you wiped on the newly mixed brown tint to the wash, did you wipe it off after application, or just leave the wash on? Thanks!

[gooddaymate]

Did the crescent cream wash look yellow at all once applied to the dresser, or did it look more white? It’s hard to tell from the video. I want a nice white wash, but no yellow tones. Thanks

[anahitalita]

This looks amazing. I want to do this. Will report back

[tyshmc]

Are the paints that you added for a warmer feel just regular acrylic paints? Or specific for furniture/wood?
