"Upcycling" is not as easy as they make it look on YouTube!

I'm going to be ankle deep in sander dust and elbow deep in PVA sealant soon.... help!

Apparently all this prep is worth it, but you never see them do this on YT! They just make it look fun!

Yep! The prep is worth it. I started small with a wooden ikea step thing that I could afford to ruin. Have since done bigger pieces but the results are variable. Sometimes they just don’t look right no matter what you do! But the prep will make it long lasting and that’s important,

I thought this might be you! What have you been doing? You posted the before picture hours ago!!. Just get on with it woman. It's going to b the highlight of my day, seeing what becomes of it!!

@MaureenMLove 😂😂😂 I have sugar soaped, sanded and wood filled since then 🤣

I'm now waiting for it to dry so I can move on....

How are we dong @LewisFan ??

@MaureenMLove it'll be finished by Monday...!

Ok, I look forward to seeing it! Are you changing the handles? I saw one of them was hanging off anyway.
