About

Hi! My name’s Katie. On this channel I’ll bring you along as I paint & restyle found and thrifted furniture that is worn out or just plain outdated so that someone new can use and love it in their home again. Please know that I’m FURNITURE PAINTER, not a furniture purist. You can expect lots of Tutorials, DIY’s, How-To’s and Thrift with Me videos! Please remember to subscribe and thank you for your support.

Video Description

I found this Mid-Century Modern dresser buried under thick gray paint at the thrift store and had a feeling something good was hiding underneath. In this video, I walk you through the full process of removing the bad paint job, addressing surface issues, and revealing what’s below—without using any new paint! Whether you're into vintage furniture flips, DIY restoration techniques, or just love a good transformation reveal, you’ll want to see how this one unfolds.
