Hi MaCenna! The vanity turned out amazing! Can't wait to see the full bathroom makeover! I totally geeked out over your hardware selection! I work as a designer that focuses strictly on older homes (circa 1890s - 1940s) and those appear to be from the Arts & Crafts era (best guess would be early 1900s to mid-1910s). Very reminiscent of what you would have seen in manor houses during that time frame.

Arts and Crafts generally had much simpler hardware. Look at The Craftsman by Stickley for examples in the American style or Peter Waals, Gimson or the Barnsley Brothers in the English Arts and Crafts tradition. I think decorative hardware like this is more typical of neo Georgian or neo classical styles.
@mikejames4540
10 ай бұрын
Yes, this style dating has had me a little concerned. For a slightly more modern take (1920s) look at the work of Gordon Russell whose furniture designs echoed Waals et al and who used metal door furniture which was often smooth in line and feel.

It works on the drawerfronts but it is wider than the trim on the doors which makes them look out of place - but as long as you're happy with how it looks, it's great :) Can't wait to see the next and final episode! :)

I love how thorough you are MaCenna & how professional the final results always look on your projects.I’m a knitter & it really matters to me that the sweaters I knit for my granddaughter look professional. What I’ve learned from you is that for most jobs, it’s not that it takes hiring a professional for the job to end up with professional looking results, it does take attention to detail. It takes being willing to slow down & caulk, fill all the nail holes, sand, & wipe it all down 2-3 times before the painting can begin. It takes time to clean off ALL the old paint from the pulls & hinges before re-installing them, or to complete all the steps to prep the surface properly instead of just slapping down some peel & stick tile to cover up floor you don’t care for. 😉 At first I thought you weren’t going to paint the inside of those doors, 😳 but I know you better than that. The bathroom looks absolutely beautiful!

Antiquing kits from the late 60’s and early 70’s were very popular and much like Retique-it (though I can’t remember the smell). The kits from then came in both wood look and in colors with slightly different colored glazes as well. I did a bookcase and unfinished dresser to match a blonde dresser with a Formica top I couldn’t change when I was in 8th grade. I also did a 30’s style drop leaf table and chairs in a bright apple green with a bluish glaze for my first apartment in the mid 70’s.

Hello MaCenna 👋 Thank you for sharing this project. I too have recently purchased a new house and have been wanting to re-do the cabinets in both bathrooms and kitchen as they are currently white. I've never been a fan of white cabinets or white walls. I have always leaned towards vintage moodiness with a semi- Victorian vibe. I ran across the Retique It line on Amazon one day and have always been curious about it. Now, after seeing you use it on your cabinets, with very impressive results, I am now going to give it a go in my front guest bathroom. I also love the color of stain you used on your cabinets and feel that it would work very well with the 1920's vintage look I'm attempting to pull off. I love the over all look of your bathroom. It turned out beautiful. Your video has given me the confidence to try this product. Thanks again Xo ❤

WOW - just floored at the transformation of those cabinets! The solid brass pulls you selected are e.v.e.r.y.t.h.i.n.g - I rarely like the word “elevated” - but the difference is so dramatic, that’s the most precise description for what you’ve pulled off here (pun intended!) As to the wood-like finish I’ll add “professional” and “sophisticated” and “old world” and indeed, very very French. I just want to say that I’m not one of those gushing fan-girls desperate for recognition from a KZitem personality. I’m a 58 year old commenter that doesn’t pull punches - if I think a creator has a misplaced aesthetic or an incomplete vision, I’ll say where and how because I truly believe we are all here to share and learn and grow. And I appreciate that it must be very difficult to put your hard work on display and sometimes read things that aren’t thoroughly complimentary. Which is a very round-about way of saying: When I’m bowled-over with the results of a project as I am here, you may take it to heart that you’ve accomplished something extraordinary ...added something exceptionally valuable to the do-it-yourself niche ...and have *truly* earned my respect. I don’t flatter myself that my (or anyone here on KZitem’s) respect is what you’re after, but have taken the time to express this to mitigate whatever disappointments you face, and to encourage you. Thank you for sharing - and by the way, your editing is sincerely some of the best I’ve seen.
