After teaching for 46 years, I retired and lost my purpose in life. Found your channel and I'm Hooked on flipping furniture!!! I've only sold 6 pieces so far but the thrill I get when people pick them up is awesome. My best find was when an NFL player moved and threw out tons of furniture>Touchdown!!!!
And here I am wanting to get into teaching! You teachers are amazing! I’m so glad you are on a new path in life that makes you happy again! Bless you!!!
I can't believe how transparent you are with all of your finances. I've never heard a youtuber giving their numbers like this and it's refreshing. Thanks for all the info! Great channel :D
I agree ☝️ I feel like the hutch was absolutely gorgeous and I would have paid waaaay more for it then what she sold it for . I wish she lived closer because I would of paid a good amount for that beautiful piece .
@@FurnitureFlippingTeacher i hope you give yourself another goal. Working towards a goal has given your channel a new and original aspect that has made you stand out. Maybe your next goal could be a down-payment on a house. If you already own a house then maybe a fun wedding. 😉 my daughter was married 7 yrs ago on the weekend of Halloween. Everyone came in costume. She wore beautiful wings with her wedding dress. Abe & Mary Todd Lincoln attended a well as Mother Nature, Mary Poppins, Jane & Michael & Bert. We even had the dude from Caddyshack there. He of course had the gopher as his plus 1. A Hallowedding isn't for everyone but it proved that a wedding could be way more fun than the traditional celebration. I'm sure I'm not the only fan that would love to follow you as you work towards a wedding goal. 😉 just sayin'

Love what you're doing. Here's a couple of tips: Alway sand in a circular motion. It makes the finish much smoother. Always change out the foam on cushions. Don't neglect this step as foam can hide many nasty things. Where you can, change out any protective plastic or rubber tips on the bottom of furniture legs. It looks much better if they are not scratched and scuffed up. Best wishes.
I can't believe people are paying almost as much for old upolsterd worn down chairs as they do for a beautifully refinished dresser or hutch! When you showed those chairs you were working on I was like there's no way you can make decent money off of them! But you made so much money on them! Lol. Amazing.
Same here I wouldn't be able to sell such prices, especially cause people who buy used up furniture's wants better deals that if they bought a new one. Well except maybe for nice repeinted stuff that would target a different type of customers.
You are such an example to youth of today. I applaud you. I was a counselors/ data processor secretary in a junior high for 18 years and I wish you could come to Washington state and be a part of the Puyallup school district. You would truly be a wonderful asset to the children, and fellow teachers. God bless you on your journey and I think you’ll be a success in what ever you choose.
I have never been so excited to see someone squash debt and even improve their business debt free! Dave Ramsey would love this even if you don't follow him.❤
After 7 offers on a house my daughter finally got a offer excepted!!! She plans to fill it with all second hand furniture. With your inspiration. I think we can do it!!! Off to search for treasures! See you on the flip side!!
want to start flipping furniture but don't know what equipment I need to start. I love you videos I find them very helpful. thank you for what you because you do it great!!!
Hulda from Puerto Rico tells you, that you are the Best Teacher on Flipper things. You, your lovely husband and Felipe, had made a revolution in the marquet place in Omaha and now in Nebraska. Congratulations for the 100k too. So, you did it with the help of your lovely husband.
Your channel is such a great example of hard work and hustle. It's no wonder that you ate getting so much support. Enjoying your content. Congrats on Fillipe!
I'm a retired teacher and have started doing some crafts and furniture myself. You have inspired me so much with your ideas. God bless you and thank you for these videos. You're awesome!
It's so wonderful seeing such a hard working young lady. My grandmother was a teacher and such an inspiration to those around her. I'm willing to bet you're no different! Keep up the good work!!❤️
Just found your channel today . And I'm so impressed with what your doing. First thing I did was call my granddaughter and tell her, this is what I want to do. A couple of hours later she calls me back and tell me Oh yea, we could do this for sure! Thanks so much for the inspiration. June
That yellow midcentury couch was such a good find! I would have paid twice what it went for. Congrats on your success! Your videos have inspired me to tackle my debt with furniture flips. I'm an Uber driver and I see free furniture on the side of the road all day every day. I'm gunna start grabbing some and see what I can do to fix them up.
i have seen all of these flips and i think you are doing a great job- Smart girl-pay off the student loan! That Interest will eat you alive-Im proud of you and your not my kid!!!
Lauren, you are an amazing goal driven lady. I could only imagine how tired you are from a full time job to motivate yourself to finding pieces to flip, actually putting in the time to work on the piece and listing, negotiating with potential buyers etc. Its a lot of work, so proud of you 👏 ❤ great job!
Man!!! I LOVE your hustle!!!! We’re gonna be doing this to be paying our house off early! Dave Ramsey would be so proud of you!!! Keep crushing it lady!!! 👊🏼
Lauren~ You got us all hooked with your journey and have been growing sooo fast, with a little shy of $5,000 to pay off of your student loan debt, pretty please tell us that you are not going to stop flipping furniture?!?!?! We would be sooo sad if you left us. Your videos are wonderful and we want you to keep them coming!!!!!! :)
another fan, this time nearly 80! I ilived in Nebraska for 16 years, very active in Fontenelle Forest. In a world which has lots of bad news, your story is so heartening. My husband would have said “Good Nebraska stock”, and been proud ! God Bless you both. I listen every day. Keep it up, Lauren! nickie haggart
Hello from Texas! New subscriber. Learning from your videos to attempt to flip some of my furniture. I am an ER nurse and your channel is my relax time.
My first time watching your video. I LOVE the fact you are recycling AND that you are taking full responsibility for paying your student loan! You are an excellent example for all young people. Kudos, I am impressed!
Omg you are A ROCKSTAR!! I'm so inspired by how fast you've chipped away at your student loan debt, your work ethic, and needless to say your mad furniture flipping skills!!
You have inspired me! I have only $30,000 left on my mortgage and I want to pay it off more than anything! I have flipped furniture in the past but got sick with Covid and had to stop. I am 98% better and can't wait to flip again! Thank you for your inspiration!! Love your videos!! Good luck!! And Thank You!!
Aaaaaaahhh! Why isn't there a "LOVE" button that I can hit 100 times?!!! Lauren and Neiman, this is INCREDIBLE!! I can't stop smiling, and my stomach is doing flips with excitement - what a fantastic month! I've watched every video and was STILL blown away at the fact you did 20 flips this month 😳😮😮😮💪💪🎉🙌🙌 AND you were able to buy Felipe!!! AND YOU HAVE MERCH!!! Did you ever expect your movement to grow this quickly?! It's because you are both so hard-working, relatable, knowledgeable, and it's such an amazing journey and people like being part of amazing things and seeing lovely people succeed!! ❤❤❤❤❤ Congratulations to you both, wishing an April filled with the very best! See you on the flip side 😘👊 (Eeeeeek! I'm not going to be able to sleep now, I'm too excited! Lol!)
I'm so impressed with your skills and talent along with paying off your student debt. I just retired 3 months ago after working in a High School for the past 20 years. My youngest daughter is also a Middle School Band Director since 2013. She went to a private university and in spite of the money we put towards her education and the scholarships she earned, she still graduated with $80,000 in student debt. I'm a CPA, so I suggested to her that when she graduates, she could continue to live at home as long as it took to pay off her loans, as long as the majority of her paycheck went to her loans. We put together a budget for her to pay her car expenses, insurance and fun money. Everything else went straight to pay off her loans. She made her final loan payment 2.5 years after graduating and was sooooo thankful for my advice and support. Have been enjoying all of your videos.
I don't know how TH-cam algorithms brought me to your channel but i'm SO GRATEFUL it did. I really enjoy watching your content, the transformation of the furniture and reason you started doing it!!!! Someone didn't need a piece of furniture anymore, sold it. Someone else bought, transformed it with love and care. And someone else fell in love with the "new" furniture, bought and is now enjoying it in their home!! Isn't that beautiful?!?
That dresser falling on you freaked me out!!! Glad you're okay! And just like you, I absolutely LOVE flipping furniture and using my DIY and creativity to earn money. Love your work!
I applaud your ingenuity and dedication. You are “just a little girl”. If you can physically do this, many other people could too! You have a wonderful eye for good stuff.
This has inspired me so much! We’ve been trying to figure out how to widdle down our student loan debt. We are a one income family since after having kids I became a stay at home mom. This looks like it would take a lot of work but it’s something I can do while the kids are asleep! I hope to start flipping furniture soon! I have a few pieces at home that I can start with
This is an awesome video for two reasons. 1) Instead of being a victim of debt, you’re working hard to make sure it’s paid back and that you do it in a timely manner. Hard work does pay off!! 2) The skill set you have and are perfecting can be used for income and/or for fun and personal projects for years to come. Once you pay off your debt, you can start contributing to an IRA, and small business owners can actually contribute more than a standard employee. Truly amazing! Good and beautiful work as well! Congrats!!
This is awesome! I’m currently in the military and it’s hard to pay off debt when our income is fixed. I’m going to start flipping furniture to pay off my debt and then put into savings or for future trips. You did a fantastic job on these videos and the flips! Cannot wait to see more!
100 other You Tube furniture flippers,.... then you! Inspiring, gifted, passionate and DTE. down to earth. I volunteer in a thrift shop in Australia. I repair and upcycle many items to add value. I've also been furnishing and decorating my studio apartment from scratch, with no $$$. Each piece is found, thrifted, made by me or gifted. I forever searching. Thank you Lauren.
So inspiring!! I’ve been watching your videos on how to flip furniture, and until I watched this video I didn’t think I would be able to do furniture flipping because I work full time, sometimes overtime and I have 2 little ones. Knowing that your a full time kindergarten teacher and still flip furniture on side really motivated me to get started! Thank you so much for your amazing videos ❤️❤️❤️
So refreshing to see a young woman that works so hard and is able to not only do something she loves to do and make money from it. It won't take you long to get rid of that student loan! Keep on flipping things on the side. It's fun and so worth it
Hey Sweetie....I'm just now catching up on ur videos....I'm very busy painting furniture AFTER being Super Inspired by your videos....I'm actually making some money now and my husband is Super happy hahah.....Ur doing a great job and thanks for Inspiration...stay blessed 🤗👍🎨🖌️
Brand new to your channel & I just have to tell you that I'm completely WOWED!!! by your hard work & your determination to pay off your loan & get yourself a much needed truck to make your business the huge success that it is. You are a huge inspiration to me. I look forward to seeing all of your videos. May God continue to bless you on you amazing journey . I wish I lived closer to you I would love some pink bedroom furniture. See you on The Flip Side💙🦋💜💙🦋💜💙🦋💜💙🦋💜
This is amazing! I subscribed to you in March and you have no idea how much your videos have helped me in my apt renovation. I had so much fun with it I started collecting old furniture and watch your videos for inspiration so I can flip them. Keep it up! You’re inspiring so many and it’s great to see you get closer to your target on paying off your student loan debt!
I love hearing people's stories (: This is amazing! So glad you tried your hand at flipping and were successful at it! Keep up the great work! Thanks for watching and supporting!
I have no idea why but every single time you said it went straight towards my student loan debt I smiled like a proud mother. I’m so happy you’re going to get out of debt fast!
I have student debt from my first degree, but I’m starting a second Bach degree in interior design. And I think this as a side hustle would be an awesome edition! I’m flipping furniture I already have (for myself) a dresser and 2 bed side tables for a guest room. But that might just be the beginning!
I could not be more happy for y’all! I may not be your grandma, but I feel the pride of grandma’s everywhere! Looking forward to many more flips in the future!
I am so proud of you for all your hard work to pay off your student debt. Just amazing. New subscriber here. Widow retired with a sweet Chihuahua companion. God Bless you from Debbie and Dexter-Dog in Southern California. 🙋🙏👀😷😍❤😘🇺🇸😀
I’ve never commented on a video before but just wanted to say that I love your transparency and watching you achieve your goals. I feel like I’m right there with you. I hope you get another savings plan for future flips because it is inspiring and so fun to see! Y’all are an adorable couple. Keep up the good work!
Love it. So inspiring. I remember how long to pay off student loans. Quite a while. In my final stint, I babysat, and every check went straight to my student loan! It felt great!
You are absolutely awesome! You are an inspiration and an example of how a little creativity, determination and elbow grease can keep you self-reliant and not dependent on student loan forgiveness programs. lead by example. I’ll bet money that you are an awesome teacher as well!
You are my inspiration. M watching your vid from thousands of miles away from Pakistan. After losing my job due to covid m definitely gona start flipping furniture by watching ur vids n amazing tips. Thank you.
You’re such an encouragement to me, I started flipping furniture just before Christmas 2020, my initial goal was a new custom dining table and chairs. I was able to achieve that goal in February. I live in a small town in Georgia. The market is sometimes slow.....but God is good slow but sure. I so enjoy this hobby as I’m retired and raising my grandson it’s all a blessing. I too have supportive husband that is always ready to help.
Lauren, I’m so happy for you! What a great accomplishment. As a furniture flipper myself, I know how hard you work. I love the way you take your time and up cycle each piece with love and care. You do it the right way, not taking any short cuts. Keep up the good work, your student loan will be behind you in no time! I’ll keep watching. Love from NC!
First time watcher and I think this is awesome girl! I'm trying to make money on the side and learn everything about flipping furniture. I get alot of free stuff during bulk trash week and things I find on facebook marketplace. Theres so much to learn in it and its so fun! Glad to be part of your channel and the furniture flipping community. 😊 This definitely inspires me and spurs me on. 😁
WOW! I am soooo excited for you and thrilled with your accomplishments! You certainly are a hard worker, wise in your choices and willing to "keep on keeping on". You are a young lady with integrity, a grateful spirit, a delightful personality and a determination to reach your goals. Thankful you were able to get your nice truck without having a financial debt. The young man helping you is certainly doing a great job also. May God continue to bless you in achieving all you are led to do. You are a blessing to me also.
So proud of you kid!!! I smiled the whole time watching you're video.I have been following you awhile, even got some people at work watching. I can't wait until you pay off your loan
I love that you break everything down! Literally everything, teaching and furniture flipping is your thing! Lol I can only imagine how you are in your classroom.✨ I want to start furniture flipping real soon. I watched about 5 of your videos and they are so encouraging with so much useful information and tips. Thank you so much for sharing, you are amazing. 👍
You go girl. I wish every kid in country is as responsible as you are. Keep it up. And please don't quit flipping even after you are done paying your loan. Cheers
Absolutely wonderful! Having watched for several months, I want to compliment you on YOUR change. Much more excitement in your voice. And much more happiness shows on your face. Now some may be from that hunk called Neiman, but a lot is from confidence you've gained. Keep it going!! Cannot wait to hear about upcoming goals after your loan is paid off.
Thank you for being a teacher! I bet your students love you and learn so much! My family has lots of teachers, including my daughter and another daughter getting her Master’s in education. Teachers shouldn’t HAVE to have a side hustle! Of course, many do. My teacher daughter has a couple! I admire your hard work, warmth and success. And I’m always grateful to all teachers who do not get the credit they deserve.
After teaching 54 year, I was a little lost at first with what to do with myself. So, I decided that I would start painting the interior of my house. I am not certain that I want to paint other individuals houses, but it very relaxing for me. I admire your work ethics.
Wow Lauren, that's a whole lot of great news!! Being featured on Dixie Belle's channel is a nice perk. I bet your family is very excited for you, as are all of us following your success. Congrats 🌷🌷🌷
Came home from Hobby Lobby with a ton of fancy knobs all clearance🤔to TRY to flip furniture!!All because of binge watching this awesome channel 4 a month!!!💺🤞
Thanks Lauren for your honest videos We have nothing in comparison in France. Nobody gives numbers nor share this type of contents. I’m really greatful 🙏☺️ it’s allways a pleasure to view your videos that are very inspiring !
I love your channel ! I stumbled onto it by accident and now I’m hooked! I have a lot of teachers in my family and I used to be a TA at a school for special needs. Huge props for being a teacher but even more for your hustle to pay off your student loans! It’s refreshing to see someone working so hard to take care of their finances! Lastly, you inspire me to want to flip furniture, I just don’t have the space so I will be content watching you! LOVE the shirts but wish you had bigger sizes, I was excited to get one but need larger. 😢
Girl, I just stumbled across your videos today. I’m obsessed with you!! I can tell you’re an incredible human. I’m so glad you are blowing up on YT! You deserve all the love! You remind me so much of my best friend (she is a first grade teacher), and I feel like we would get along so well if we met in person. I hope that this is taking you to your life goals!💕
I love your channel so much! I just started my flipping journey and I'm already so inspired by what you've done! I've got 2 little boys of my own, so working on furniture at naptime and bedtime is exhausting, but so addicting. I also just purchased my see you on the flip side shirt! Cant wait!
That is awesome! I can' t imagine flipping this much AND having kids! But more power to ya! You're right about it being addictive though! Thanks for watching and supporting! Glad you got your shirt ordered!
Absolutely incredible!! I hope when you pay off your student loan debt (which will be soon) that you keep flipping and doing videos. And when your debt is done, I hope you buy yourself something nice as you work so hard! I have been collecting furniture in my garage to flip but I haven’t started yet but your videos are so encouraging. Thank you!
I’m so excited for you! Your’s and Nieman’s hard work is really paying off. If you’re not careful you might just end up having money for a house. I started crafting a little bit in December and I am considering flipping a couple of my kitchen chairs to see what I think about it. Because of your inspiration I’m going to give it a try. It might be a month or two, I have acquired so much crafting material that I have got to use it! Lol Thanks for bringing us on this journey with you, it’s been fun watching and learning. 💕
@@FurnitureFlippingTeacher I do know how busy you are, I asked you a question on IG, I think it was. I’m going to look for videos on it also but if you come across my question, I’d love to know what your opinion is. Thanks again!
I appreciate your dedication to paying the student loan. I find you inspiring. I imagine your kindergarten students will benefit from your enthusiasm. And, your creativity is beautiful. Life with a purpose is rewarding. In your youtube channel, I feel I'm a kindergarten student at my senior age!

This comment made me tear up a little
I'm so inspired and uplifted by you
Good for you
And here I am wanting to get into teaching! You teachers are amazing!
I’m so glad you are on a new path in life that makes you happy again! Bless you!!!
I can't believe how transparent you are with all of your finances. I've never heard a youtuber giving their numbers like this and it's refreshing. Thanks for all the info! Great channel :D
I’m surprised that there wasn’t more interest in the hutch. That was my favorite piece you’ve done so far.
I agree ☝️ I feel like the hutch was absolutely gorgeous and I would have paid waaaay more for it then what she sold it for . I wish she lived closer because I would of paid a good amount for that beautiful piece .
I think the price is the reason
I would have liked her to keep the doors on it. 🤷
Yeah, that was pretty awesome.
For some reason the younger generation doesn't like them.
I hope you continue even after you payoff your student loan... I’m happy for you for setting goals and working hard to get to the goal.
That's the plan! We're here for the long haul!

I agree the foam grossed me out.
How do you stay motivated and have the energy to be a full time teacher, balance your personal life and flip furniture? You go girl!
No kids lol 😂
She’s young!!
I would say all of us rooting for her helps....we are her cheerleaders and hold her accountable, that is sooo important😊
smiling with her every time she says she put it right into student loan dept :) What an achievement! Loved the video
I can't believe people are paying almost as much for old upolsterd worn down chairs as they do for a beautifully refinished dresser or hutch! When you showed those chairs you were working on I was like there's no way you can make decent money off of them! But you made so much money on them! Lol. Amazing.
I thought the same. Where I live, even a used La-Z-Boy doesn’t sell at that price
Definitely very market / location dependent.
Same here I wouldn't be able to sell such prices, especially cause people who buy used up furniture's wants better deals that if they bought a new one. Well except maybe for nice repeinted stuff that would target a different type of customers.
A year from now, you two will have a store dowtown somewhere filled with all types of beautiful things that you made.
we love it! Speak it into existence 😊

How do you keep the government from coming after you for taxes for all this money you're making? Also How do you find all the time?
She's very busy and beautiful...shes a great example of what a teacher should be.
These end of month compilations are my favorite. I like seeing you review everything at the end of the month!

(Eeeeeek! I'm not going to be able to sleep now, I'm too excited! Lol!)
Calm down.
I'm so impressed with your skills and talent along with paying off your student debt. I just retired 3 months ago after working in a High School for the past 20 years. My youngest daughter is also a Middle School Band Director since 2013. She went to a private university and in spite of the money we put towards her education and the scholarships she earned, she still graduated with $80,000 in student debt. I'm a CPA, so I suggested to her that when she graduates, she could continue to live at home as long as it took to pay off her loans, as long as the majority of her paycheck went to her loans. We put together a budget for her to pay her car expenses, insurance and fun money. Everything else went straight to pay off her loans. She made her final loan payment 2.5 years after graduating and was sooooo thankful for my advice and support. Have been enjoying all of your videos.
I don't know how TH-cam algorithms brought me to your channel but i'm SO GRATEFUL it did. I really enjoy watching your content, the transformation of the furniture and reason you started doing it!!!! Someone didn't need a piece of furniture anymore, sold it. Someone else bought, transformed it with love and care. And someone else fell in love with the "new" furniture, bought and is now enjoying it in their home!! Isn't that beautiful?!?
That dresser falling on you freaked me out!!! Glad you're okay! And just like you, I absolutely LOVE flipping furniture and using my DIY and creativity to earn money. Love your work!
I applaud your ingenuity and dedication. You are “just a little girl”. If you can physically do this, many other people could too! You have a wonderful eye for good stuff.
Long time fan and retired teacher here. You are so industrious. I’m sure the people who love you the most are very proud of you.
This has inspired me so much! We’ve been trying to figure out how to widdle down our student loan debt. We are a one income family since after having kids I became a stay at home mom. This looks like it would take a lot of work but it’s something I can do while the kids are asleep! I hope to start flipping furniture soon! I have a few pieces at home that I can start with
This is an awesome video for two reasons.
1) Instead of being a victim of debt, you’re working hard to make sure it’s paid back and that you do it in a timely manner. Hard work does pay off!!
2) The skill set you have and are perfecting can be used for income and/or for fun and personal projects for years to come. Once you pay off your debt, you can start contributing to an IRA, and small business owners can actually contribute more than a standard employee.
Truly amazing! Good and beautiful work as well! Congrats!!
This is my favorite video each month! I am BLOWN AWAY!
Ours too! (: Thanks for watching and supporting!
She makes it seem so simple. To be honest, she has IMPECCABLE taste, the value proposition here is all in her eye for design.
This is awesome! I’m currently in the military and it’s hard to pay off debt when our income is fixed. I’m going to start flipping furniture to pay off my debt and then put into savings or for future trips. You did a fantastic job on these videos and the flips! Cannot wait to see more!
100 other You Tube furniture flippers,.... then you!
Inspiring, gifted, passionate and DTE. down to earth.
I volunteer in a thrift shop in Australia. I repair and upcycle many items to add value.
I've also been furnishing and decorating my studio apartment from scratch, with no $$$.
Each piece is found, thrifted, made by me or gifted. I forever searching. Thank you Lauren.
So inspiring!! I’ve been watching your videos on how to flip furniture, and until I watched this video I didn’t think I would be able to do furniture flipping because I work full time, sometimes overtime and I have 2 little ones. Knowing that your a full time kindergarten teacher and still flip furniture on side really motivated me to get started! Thank you so much for your amazing videos ❤️❤️❤️
So refreshing to see a young woman that works so hard and is able to not only do something she loves to do and make money from it. It won't take you long to get rid of that student loan! Keep on flipping things on the side. It's fun and so worth it
Hey Sweetie....I'm just now catching up on ur videos....I'm very busy painting furniture AFTER being Super Inspired by your videos....I'm actually making some money now and my husband is Super happy hahah.....Ur doing a great job and thanks for Inspiration...stay blessed 🤗👍🎨🖌️
Brand new to your channel & I just have to tell you that I'm completely WOWED!!! by your hard work & your determination to pay off your loan & get yourself a much needed truck to make your business the huge success that it is. You are a huge inspiration to me. I look forward to seeing all of your videos. May God continue to bless you on you amazing journey . I wish I lived closer to you I would love some pink bedroom furniture. See you on The Flip Side💙🦋💜💙🦋💜💙🦋💜💙🦋💜
This is amazing! I subscribed to you in March and you have no idea how much your videos have helped me in my apt renovation. I had so much fun with it I started collecting old furniture and watch your videos for inspiration so I can flip them. Keep it up! You’re inspiring so many and it’s great to see you get closer to your target on paying off your student loan debt!
I love hearing people's stories (: This is amazing! So glad you tried your hand at flipping and were successful at it! Keep up the great work! Thanks for watching and supporting!
I have no idea why but every single time you said it went straight towards my student loan debt I smiled like a proud mother. I’m so happy you’re going to get out of debt fast!
I love the finished pieces. Can you also include how many hours you worked on each piece?
You are by far the best furniture flip teacher out there. I have learned so much from you. Thank you.
I have student debt from my first degree, but I’m starting a second Bach degree in interior design. And I think this as a side hustle would be an awesome edition! I’m flipping furniture I already have (for myself) a dresser and 2 bed side tables for a guest room. But that might just be the beginning!
I could not be more happy for y’all! I may not be your grandma, but I feel the pride of grandma’s everywhere! Looking forward to many more flips in the future!
Congratulations Lauren and Neiman!
You are truly incredible role models for all ages. It’s very refreshing to see.
Keep up the great work!
I appreciate your willingness to work hard and be so responsive with your debt. Imagine where this work ethic will take you. Good on you!
Hey from Sydney Australia, also a teacher.. loving your content❣️
PS you should have a hidden FFT logo on all your flips
So cool! I want to visit there sometime! Keep on teachin! (: Thanks for watching!
I am so proud of you for all your hard work to pay off your student debt. Just amazing. New subscriber here. Widow retired with a sweet Chihuahua companion. God Bless you from Debbie and Dexter-Dog in Southern California. 🙋🙏👀😷😍❤😘🇺🇸😀
I’ve never commented on a video before but just wanted to say that I love your transparency and watching you achieve your goals. I feel like I’m right there with you. I hope you get another savings plan for future flips because it is inspiring and so fun to see! Y’all are an adorable couple. Keep up the good work!
Love it. So inspiring.
I remember how long to pay off student loans. Quite a while. In my final stint, I babysat, and every check went straight to my student loan! It felt great!
You are absolutely awesome! You are an inspiration and an example of how a little creativity, determination and elbow grease can keep you self-reliant and not dependent on student loan forgiveness programs. lead by example. I’ll bet money that you are an awesome teacher as well!
I enjoy these reviews when you go over the month and show with what you've done and the cost and the profit you've made. Thanks 👍🏽
You are my inspiration. M watching your vid from thousands of miles away from Pakistan. After losing my job due to covid m definitely gona start flipping furniture by watching ur vids n amazing tips.
Thank you.
You’re such an encouragement to me, I started flipping furniture just before Christmas 2020, my initial goal was a new custom dining table and chairs. I was able to achieve that goal in February. I live in a small town in Georgia. The market is sometimes slow.....but God is good slow but sure. I so enjoy this hobby as I’m retired and raising my grandson it’s all a blessing. I too have supportive husband that is always ready to help.
Lauren, I’m so happy for you! What a great accomplishment. As a furniture flipper myself, I know how hard you work. I love the way you take your time and up cycle each piece with love and care. You do it the right way, not taking any short cuts. Keep up the good work, your student loan will be behind you in no time! I’ll keep watching. Love from NC!
First time watcher and I think this is awesome girl! I'm trying to make money on the side and learn everything about flipping furniture. I get alot of free stuff during bulk trash week and things I find on facebook marketplace. Theres so much to learn in it and its so fun! Glad to be part of your channel and the furniture flipping community. 😊 This definitely inspires me and spurs me on. 😁
W0W W0W W0W LAUREN, WOW, WOW, WOW, AGAIN I AM IMPRESSED. WAY TO GO WOMAN! CONGRATULATIONS.
WOW! I am soooo excited for you and thrilled with your accomplishments! You certainly are a hard worker, wise in your choices and willing to "keep on keeping on". You are a young lady with integrity, a grateful spirit, a delightful personality and a determination to reach your goals. Thankful you were able to get your nice truck without having a financial debt. The young man helping you is certainly doing a great job also. May God continue to bless you in achieving all you are led to do. You are a blessing to me also.
You are a great inspiration to young people. Hard work pays off.
Congratulations Lauren. I love your enthusiasm and entrepreneurship!
Thank you so much!! Thanks for watching and supporting!
So proud of you kid!!! I smiled the whole time watching you're video.I have been following you awhile, even got some people at work watching. I can't wait until you pay off your loan
I love that you break everything down!
Literally everything, teaching and furniture flipping is your thing! Lol I can only imagine how you are in your classroom.✨
I want to start furniture flipping real soon. I watched about 5 of your videos and they are so encouraging with so much useful information and tips. Thank you so much for sharing, you are amazing. 👍
You go girl. I wish every kid in country is as responsible as you are. Keep it up. And please don't quit flipping even after you are done paying your loan.
Cheers
Absolutely wonderful! Having watched for several months, I want to compliment you on YOUR change. Much more excitement in your voice. And much more happiness shows on your face. Now some may be from that hunk called Neiman, but a lot is from confidence you've gained. Keep it going!! Cannot wait to hear about upcoming goals after your loan is paid off.
Wow!! I am blown away by the number of flips you’ve done this month. I, too, am a FT teacher, and I’m in awe of your determination and energy!
When that dresser fell on you I had a mini heart attack!!! So glad someone was there to help lift it back up.
Thank you for being a teacher! I bet your students love you and learn so much! My family has lots of teachers, including my daughter and another daughter getting her Master’s in education. Teachers shouldn’t HAVE to have a side hustle! Of course, many do. My teacher daughter has a couple! I admire your hard work, warmth and success. And I’m always grateful to all teachers who do not get the credit they deserve.
You go girl!!!! Almost have it paid off!
Getting sooooo close! Thanks for watching!
After teaching 54 year, I was a little lost at first with what to do with myself. So, I decided that I would start painting the interior of my house. I am not certain that I want to paint other individuals houses, but it very relaxing for me. I admire your work ethics.
Wow Lauren, that's a whole lot of great news!! Being featured on Dixie Belle's channel is a nice perk. I bet your family is very excited for you, as are all of us following your success. Congrats 🌷🌷🌷
I love how honest and transparent you are with your progress. Very happy and excited for you achieving your goals!
This is so encouraging to hear! You are definitely being blessed in your endeavors. What a Testament to hard work. How amazing, God bless you! 👏 💜
Thank you so much! Thanks for watching and supporting!
I love that you share your revenue breakdowns at the end. It’s really helpful
Came home from Hobby Lobby with a ton of fancy knobs all clearance🤔to TRY to flip furniture!!All because of binge watching this awesome channel 4 a month!!!💺🤞
You got this! (: I'm sure you'll do amazing! Thanks for watching and supporting!
Thanks Lauren for your honest videos
We have nothing in comparison in France. Nobody gives numbers nor share this type of contents. I’m really greatful 🙏☺️ it’s allways a pleasure to view your videos that are very inspiring !
Greetings from Venezuela, my wife and I love your work, it is very satisfying to see what you have achieved in a short time. God bless you.
Thank you very much! That's so great to hear that you enjoy! Thanks for watching and supporting! God Bless!
I love your channel ! I stumbled onto it by accident and now I’m hooked! I have a lot of teachers in my family and I used to be a TA at a school for special needs. Huge props for being a teacher but even more for your hustle to pay off your student loans! It’s refreshing to see someone working so hard to take care of their finances! Lastly, you inspire me to want to flip furniture, I just don’t have the space so I will be content watching you! LOVE the shirts but wish you had bigger sizes, I was excited to get one but need larger. 😢
Girl, I just stumbled across your videos today. I’m obsessed with you!! I can tell you’re an incredible human. I’m so glad you are blowing up on YT! You deserve all the love! You remind me so much of my best friend (she is a first grade teacher), and I feel like we would get along so well if we met in person. I hope that this is taking you to your life goals!💕
Thank you so much!! So glad you're here to be a part of the journey! Thanks for watching!
I love that you are paying off your student loan. You are awesome.
I'm so happy for you!!! I have student loan debt and you are inspiring me to do this (or something like this).
Very impressive numbers and projects. I loved the yellow futon. Was cheering you on while you were cleaning it up!!! More please.
I love your channel so much! I just started my flipping journey and I'm already so inspired by what you've done! I've got 2 little boys of my own, so working on furniture at naptime and bedtime is exhausting, but so addicting. I also just purchased my see you on the flip side shirt! Cant wait!
That is awesome! I can' t imagine flipping this much AND having kids! But more power to ya! You're right about it being addictive though! Thanks for watching and supporting! Glad you got your shirt ordered!
Absolutely incredible!! I hope when you pay off your student loan debt (which will be soon) that you keep flipping and doing videos. And when your debt is done, I hope you buy yourself something nice as you work so hard! I have been collecting furniture in my garage to flip but I haven’t started yet but your videos are so encouraging. Thank you!
I’m so excited for you! Your’s and Nieman’s hard work is really paying off. If you’re not careful you might just end up having money for a house. I started crafting a little bit in December and I am considering flipping a couple of my kitchen chairs to see what I think about it. Because of your inspiration I’m going to give it a try. It might be a month or two, I have acquired so much crafting material that I have got to use it! Lol Thanks for bringing us on this journey with you, it’s been fun watching and learning. 💕
So glad you enjoy! 🤗 You should definitely try it out! It creative just like crafting so i’m sure you’ll love it! Thanks for watching!
@@FurnitureFlippingTeacher I do know how busy you are, I asked you a question on IG, I think it was. I’m going to look for videos on it also but if you come across my question, I’d love to know what your opinion is.
Thanks again!
I appreciate your dedication to paying the student loan.
I find you inspiring.
I imagine your kindergarten students will benefit from your enthusiasm.
And, your creativity is beautiful.
Life with a purpose is rewarding.
In your youtube channel, I feel I'm a kindergarten student at my senior age!
Hello from Canada, way to go! I enjoy watching you guys! Thank you!
Hello! Thanks for watching and supporting!
This is so amazing! How wonderful to have this opportunity to tackle your student debt! Beautiful transformations!
