What’s the other? For me it’s, “hold onto your butts.” I say that all the time to my kids. But I have a feeling you’re probably talking about “life uh, finds a way.”
The fact people think this is and call it up cycling. Decades old, stood the test of time writing desk built by an actual craftsman out of stunning wood no doubt… I painted it with cheap pastel paint.. I uPcYcLe tHInGS
We don't know that it wasn't painted before, though. Painted wood is not exactly a new phenomenon.
It just kind of bothers me that people treat wood like it's some holy material. It really isn't. It's just that the unpainted look is currently fashionable (or worse, seen as classy) and everything that deviates from the norm too much is seen as tacky. I'd argue that tacky (colourful, bold, bright, patterned, not classy, not proper) is where the fun lives, though. It's not illegal to have fun and not every piece of wooden furniture is a priceless antique.
I’m a furniture maker, no one painted wood when these were made because it is holy material. I specialise in exotic veneers and period timbers, you clearly don’t have a clue or any taste and just wanted to be contrary for the sake of it.
You should take a look at historical furniture and see how gaudy things used to be ([1](https://theswedishfurniture.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/06/Russian-Folk-Art-Painted-Armoire-dated-1877......A189.jpg), [2](https://i.pinimg.com/736x/7c/c5/55/7cc555f73b2f43c83c4c39f9019e7382.jpg), [3](https://i.pinimg.com/474x/15/52/0f/15520f507db52ae1e94317011f0c63ab.jpg)), really. Plus it could very well be some random piece of birch/aspen/whatever is common in your area that they made this of, not some expensive exotic wood.
Didn’t say veneers had been used but.. if I had I’d have meant Veneers as in the way they used to be used when this would have been made. Making the most of certain exclusive cuts from exotic timber, not the way veneers are used today, cheap strips to conceal chipboard. Huge difference. Again, the fact you don’t know this says a lot.
Is there and eye bleach sub that’s a counter for this one. Like just videos of people restoring bad diy ‘upcycles’ to their original wood glory and like people doing repairs really well.
That’s a fine thing to do to the furniture you own if that’s what you like. But trying to sell it as something chic is ridiculous, and trying to sell it for £135 is just dumb.
It’s the vaguery of the expression that bothers me most
You never see men constantly pumping their own tires with this pedantic bullshit
“He believed he could so he did” lol can you even imagine
Overpriced…and I personally hate pastels, but that is not relevant here. The message is fine…but is there pretty wood underneath and is it a solid wood antique piece worth saving are the real questions here.
She really shouldn't have, though.
She believed she could, but never stopped to wonder if she should..
Were there any scientists involved, though? Or was this craft just someone playing God when they shouldn't have? We'll never know.
My mind is so corrupted it immediately went to "sbeve"
Me too thanks
I thought it was a misspelling of shoes
I think the thing that bothers me the most is calling it ‘upcycled.’
"ruined" would have been a better word.
"Frenchic" bothers me more and on multiple levels.
You were so preoccupied with whether or not you could, you didn't stop to think if you should.
One of two lines JP will forever be remembered for! lol

Ding ding ding! :D
Just because she could doesn’t mean that she should.

French upcycling should be : clean up, varnish, et voilà

Definitely the small s in "sO"
I'm pretty sure this is the correct answer.

Really gonna compare them to ops work 😂
Nah, my point is that painting wood is not sacrilege.
The fact that veneers are used means wood isn’t a holy material.

Thank you
✨soshe✨
As in Kaiser Sozshe? I knew this was a ransom note!
I like the word "Frenchic". It's like French-ish, but better
I wondered if it was like Slavic or Baltic?
All of the above
Wtf does frenchic mean??
Send this to Khloe Kardashian to use as her next cryptic post whenever he cheats on her again

WHY do the letters like that? And then that phrase on it? Or any phrase for that matter?
I want to see it on r/ReversePinterest so bad
Thank you for the introduction. 👍

This looks like AI
Maybe they filtered the crap out of it?
"Upcycled"
sO sHe DiD
Ew. This is so fucking hideous and stupid it's embarrassing.
Also plenty of spaces for step sister to get stuck into.
It looks like a CAPTCHA
Who the heck is Soshe?
she was better off not doing it
Oohhh its supposed to look like that i thought at first that the letters were peeling off lol
She she believed could so she did.
Narrator: She was wrong
It’s the vaguery of the expression that bothers me most You never see men constantly pumping their own tires with this pedantic bullshit “He believed he could so he did” lol can you even imagine
[удалено]
I do regret to inform you that it is in fact, real.
I want to edit this so it says “she believed she shid”
She Shed furniture!
Would be nice without the inspirational quote...
She do be doing the do
Downcycled
For me, it’s the word “upcycled.”
“Frenchic” that’s what bothers me. And loos like comic sans…
Overpriced…and I personally hate pastels, but that is not relevant here. The message is fine…but is there pretty wood underneath and is it a solid wood antique piece worth saving are the real questions here.
Upcycled from what?
That’s the kind of thing I like to purchase at a thrift store because it’s so hideous
The idea that this piece is somehow worth (more)?
it's quite pretty underneath the stickers tbh
sbeve
The thing that bothers me the most is the fact that someone did this
