MY WORST NIGHTMARE!

It blows me away to think of how I was raised with parents, grandparents and all my aunts and uncles smoking all around us daily. I'm 73 now and have had asthma all my life. My sisters and I have never smoked, but we feel we sure breathed in enough second hand smoke. I don't understand how people these day can still be smoking or vaping with everything that is known now. My mom stopped smoking last 10 years of her life, because she had a heart attack and had major surgery. My dad had quit at 36 and wouldn't let my mom smoke in the house after that thankfully. When working at schools I could tell the parents that smoke, because there kids smelled strong of smoke, made me sad for them having to breath that in. Glad you were able to get that smell out. It looks a lot better too.

I love how you have transformed this set ! The base, color and hardware gives it a sophistication in an updated look . ❤

I inherited a beautiful bedroom suit from my brother and it reeks of cigarette smoke. Thanks for showing me how to deal with refinishing it

This is a great video. You must feel a HUGE sense of relief and accomplishment for finally getting this daunting task completed. And it came out so beautiful! It was nice to see a few little hints of Neiman's presence throughout. He needs to do more cameos. He's so funny and he really adds to these videos. Anyway, SUPERB job, Lauren!

Well done Lauren you hit this out the park. I think you got every single detail just perfect on it. From the colour green you chose to the beautiful hardware and to all of those amazing bases you made. Everything just worked in harmony together. I hope it sells soon for you. Hold out for that special buyer and your asking price as it’s worth every penny 😊

Wow... Regardless of the odor issue, the set is completely unrecognizable after the refurb. It looks phenomenal. The color is great, and the hardware matching the new bases look really good.

Wow! What a difference. They are so beautiful now.

Cloudy Ammonia is great for taking smoke smell out of house, car . I used to put it in old mugs or jars and sit the mug or jar in the window sill or in your case you could sit a small open container in the drawers. It really works.😊💕 and it’s really cheap! Good tip for you when you get furniture and have It sitting for awhile takes the hard labour to not so hard a project!😊

I really love the weeping willow paint color! It is a beautiful shade of green. I would absolutely pay that price for that set. It looks modern and new. Great job!

Your videos are so beautifully done…very professional ❤❤❤

Thank you for your very detailed explanation about each step of the process. 👍 And, hats off to Nieman for his amazing editing skills and all that he does for the channel. You two make an amazing team! 🤗

Excellent transformation!!! That’s a very fair price for the quality of workmanship that went into it… well done 🙏🎉😎🎶

These turned out absolutely stunning, all your hard work of cleaning paid off. I also loved the hardware that you chose.

Wowza! Love the long handles way better thank the knobs! Good job Laruren!

Oh wow! That turned out so cool. I love the gold with the green. That should sell quickly.

They look sooo good Lauren! Great job! 🥰🥰🥰

Wow! That set is beautiful! Wish I lived closer.

Turned out fantastic. Good luck on the sale.

I normally don’t comment but I just had to drop in and say these look awesome! The custom bases you made really make a difference!

You can use cups of white vinegar to remove smoke smells. Put the cups inside (where the drawers go) leave it overnight….worked for me 😊. Also you could actually just refer to the pieces as a dresser and Chest-of-drawers.
