Thrift Flip DIY on a Budget // Thrifting Lamp Makeover

Thrift Flip DIY! A Thrifting Lamp Makeover before and after project!

I think this is one of my favorite thrift flips to date! I thrifted this lamp from Goodwill and I am so glad I brought it home with me because it turned out to be one of the cutest pieces I have done a DIY makeover on!

In this video, I'll share how to use a product I've heard wonderful things about -- Rub n' Buff! And it did not disappoint! It was so simple to use and really helped achieve the exact look I was going for when giving this lamp a quick makeover.

If you're new to the channel, we're so glad you're here! I love sharing how to get an elevated, stylish look for less and always on a budget! I also show how-to's and DIY projects so you can achieve that look in your home as well!

[hydrangeawhite]

What a score ! The end result is perfect !!!

[whitneymelcher]

Literally bought this exact lamp at our local Goodwill yesterday hoping I can style it in our modern home. Looks like ill be picking up some rub n buff! thanks for the video

[lymarirodgers]

I loved the idea of spray painting it first. I’ve used the product before and a little does go a long way. The lamps came out beautifully.🥰

[mariagiordano]

Another great DIY!! The lamp looks awesome

You’ve inspired a shopping trip to Goodwill

Thanks for sharing all your tips 🙏

[chrissyaguiar]

I’ve used Rub n’ Buff and have tons of the colors! They work great on ornate picture frames, too! Completely changes the look! Love your little lamp! That was a total “score”.

Wow - it looks great! One question: does the finish come off on your hands at all when you touch it? I want to try this on my lamp.

[mariahlvmh]

found the same lamp out one of our goodwills and you inspired me to do the same diy, thank you

[bonnieoverman]

What a great tutorial Valerie! Have never used that product, I just use paints, but it gives such a rich patina. And yes, I remember those floor lamps. 😄❤️

[carrieh]

Really beautiful addition to your space!

[annahenry]

It looks beautiful - what an amazing find

[patcarroll]

Valerie, I have learned much from your channel, which I only discovered a few days ago. Seriously, you have such deep knowledge of paint and color — as only a real artist will possess —- that I wonder if you perhaps studied art or painting in college. Because you are exceptionally good at enhancing the beauty of otherwise ho-hum household items and decor to create a new look that I would never imagine. I can’t wait to see what you do next. Thank you for sharing your talent and experience. I hope you get a million subscribers.

Great project - I have a lamp I can update with this technique. Thanks so much!

[traceye.]

This is fantastic!! I have a lamp that is almost identical that I’ve been hanging on to, trying to figure out what to do with it. It’s a really expensive brass lamp that was my fathers. I just feel that this will update it so much. And I’ll actually use it now. I’m subscribing! (Also loved the pot that you used mortar and moss on!) thank you!!

[cherylhag]

Could you use black Rub&Buff right into the brass?

[dcarpitella]

So funny. My FIL wanted to give me this exact lamp and I told him no thank you because the bright gold was so not my style! Darn, wish I would have seen this before then! Lol! 🤦🏻‍♀️

This might be a solution to hardware that's not quite the right color.
