Furniture Flip from start to end - My process to buy, makeover, and resell (in 24 hours)

#DIY #furnitureflip #furniturerestoration #furnituremakeover

I would normally choose a more challenging piece to flip but I guess this video is great for those starting out in the flipping world so you can see how a few small changes can completely change the vibe of a piece of furniture. You don't have to completely overhaul a piece of furniture to have a profitable/successful flip. I spent about 2 hours working on this one, that does not include drying/curing time. I also spent a further half an hour taking photos and listing on Marketplace.

I actually really loved this one and I am now on the look out for a similar set to keep for myself, my record player looked great on there!

Hahaha! “Out the door she goes…the drawers, not my wife”. It came out beautifully!

Dude that hack for sanding the legs is next level.

tip: take the tape off when the paint is still wet to avoid ripping it. love your work. keep them coming 😀

Everytime I see someone picking a thick paint instead of just some subtle that'd just spice the wood grain I am getting afraid of the final result. But somehow you manage to find a balance and put together the woody texture with painted drawers which end up pretty well. I like your stuff!

It turned out quite lovely. I wasn't sure about the stain but it actually looks nice with the black drawers. ❤

Love it! The leg in the drill for easy sanding is genius and I’m gonna be doing that from now on 😉 thanks for the tips!

So your baby has been your QC since birth 😁. A lovely piece of furniture and another Less is More. I'm glad it sold very quick and hope it's happy in its new home.

I used the grey stain on my kitchen benchtops and just love it. You have given me so many ideas for some furniture I want to update soon.

I thought it was going to be too ashy with the grey stain But it worked. Although the wood and black color scheme looks good I was hoping to have seen it fully restored. Maybe next time. Thanks for posting.

Your baby is so beautiful..reminds me of when my Adult babies was small...and a beautiful transformation on dresser too🥰👍

"The drawers, not my wife"😂😂
Gorgeous drawers and baby!

A plastic hardware jig is such a time saver if you haven't seen one before :) they are like 5-10 bucks too.

[KimRinehart]

Gorgeous!!!! I would buy that in a heartbeat! You made it timeless and elegant. Great video

Glad you opted to keep your wife. 😂 seriously, the two tone plus brass looks good. The basic style is what some call ‘mid century’ (and I call ‘unfortunate’) but it has its following, you gave someone what they’re looking for! With a need to bring something home to mama (since you decided to keep her and not the dresser), I totally get the need to make a cost effective flip. The photo you used for selling it on market place was brilliant. Under the vintage card and with the phonograph…that is seriously selling the sizzle! (Oooh ! Alliteration! Fun!) brilliant job of putting the piece in the best possible light! Thanks for sharing your work. I enjoy seeing perfectly functional furniture getting a fresh lease on life!

Adding black detail to the dove tail joints would have made them pop. It's a stunning restore/refinish ❤

[tracylamb]

You made the piece so beautiful. I feel you under priced it. Gorgeous baby.

Awesome job!!! Love your channel. Sending love from Maine ❤❤❤❤

New subscriber here. Wonder job in this piece. I love black and wood tones. That’s my favorite color combo. Keep up the great work.

I must say it turned out beautiful! I'm not a big fan of paint but some pieces just wear it well.
