How to Make Money Flipping Furniture For Beginners | Easy Furniture Makeover

This video is sponsored by Dixie Belle Paint Company.

🎉UPDATE🎉 I sold the tables a week after this video posted for $200 with a $132 profit! In today's makeover I'm showing how you can buy, refinish and flip furniture as a side hustle. There are so many up and coming YouTubers who are paying down student loans and their mortgages with the profit from their flips. They inspired me to take things way back to where I started...flipping for a profit! This would be a perfect flip for a beginner. Let's see if I can get these sold.

I’ve been flipping furniture to raise money for charity. As each item sells the profit goes to a different charity each time. My current project is going to a men’s mental health charity. I love your videos. I would love to flip full time. Painting has helped me so much after my 24 year old son died recently. It’s my happy place. Xx

I quit my job in the mortgage industry of 17 years and now flip furniture full time.... I have learned a lot in the last 7 months and watching your videos has been a HUGE help!!!

[knut]

Really amazes me how generous you & the rest of the PROS in the furniture flipping business are in your willingness to share you knowledge and experiences with newbies and wannabes. Thank you so much for this gift of inspiration and encouragement!

[kilogruzu]

I flip furniture as a hobby and to make some extra money. It’s great for my head to relax

[jessicafrost]

I just recently tried to flip and sell my first dresser and ended up keeping it. I get too attached after all the time and thought I put into it. I really enjoyed this video and learned a lot. Thank you!

[Missashgroth]

During covid I started flipping furniture for fun with a dresser I got for free off Facebook Marketplace. Now I’ve started my own small refinishing business and look for free and affordable pieces everyday to refinish! I’m still learning as I go, but your videos have been sooo helpful and inspiring!

I am new to furniture flipping. I’m hoping to start a small business and get myself off unemployment benefits.
Thank you to you and Dixie bell for the tutorials and products available to the flipping community 💕

I flip furniture for a profit daily. This is my main income now for about 5 years but painting now for over 10, doing it as a side hustle. Dixie Belle is my absolute FAVORITE paint line and I use it on almost all my furniture products. If I could be a retailer of it I definitely would! Thanks for sharing your projects!

[annakiruazova]

I've only flipped one piece and I'm already hooked!

[bittersweetflippingfurntit]

Love the staging idea and the spreadsheet for pricing. Always learning something new in the community.

[audhdcreativity]

I've been wanting to begin for a while- this summer is it!!! I saved some extra $ to invest in some paint, brushes and a couple pieces of used furniture! I want to do this fulltime as a stay at home, disabled, solo mom ♡♡♡

[flippingnataly]

Not even 3 minutes in I see my name on the shootout list! What! Here I am just watching as normal 🤣 Christina you're so sweet to share your platform with us smaller YouTube's!! Okay, I'm going to watch the rest of the video now 🙏 much love.

[chutzpah]

Use to flip all the time.
Furnished my entire house flipping. Made handsome profits. I paid $35 for chest of drawers. Sold for $350. Didn't even have to refinish or paint.

[amandabrygal]

I am a beginner at flipping furniture for profit. I LOVE Dixiebelle's products! I love learning from everyone. I appreciate all you flippers that help teach us beginners. It is truly a blessing! ❤❤

[bradybunchmom]

Yes, I love flipping furniture. Not only is it therapeutic, but it helps pay the bills😊

[savvyloox]

I have flipped multiple pieces for profit in the last few months. So fun! I really appreciate all of the inspiration! This nightstand set turned out so beautiful! I love the light gray!

[hillarywhite]

I am a beginner, so this was the perfect video for me! I also LOVE Dixie Belle products, obsessed with the white lightening and literally every paint color.

[angelaramseyrobinson]

I’m an artist/Art Therapist. I flipped one piece successfully. It was an old pier 1 maple coffee table I’d owned. I used a dremel to “draw” markings/doodles and then painted the top. I think I underpriced it because I carried it into a friend’s booth at an Art/flea market and it literally sold immediately to someone who saw me carrying it in. This was a few years ago. I’ve recently purchased brushes, clay/chalk based paints (Debi’s DIY and Dixie Bell)... and looking forward to painting and hopefully posting some videos too.

I've never flipped anything for profit, but I'm finally moving from an apartment into a house next week and can't wait to finally have a shed and a yard to start flipping things!!! 🙌 love your channel and furniture flipping teacher!
