Ok, I just gotta say, "Congratulations!" I am so glad that you have discovered Dave Ramsey. I wish I had seen you on the show. To me, that's more impressive than your furniture flipping, which is just a means to an end! I'm glad you shared this, so maybe more young people can see that it IS possible to be debt free. WOO-HOO! You are livin' the life! Oh, and I like your project, too, lol. 🙂👍💖
Wow, thank you! I really appreciate your support! Hope to see you on here next week!
There’s just something about a stencil over raw wood that makes me so happy. Way to give this dresser a new life!
thank you thank you!
Hmm good question Kara. I've never seen a pattern like that just on the top before. It looked professionally done but agree that's weird. Great job giving this a new life, beautiful!
thanks for watching! I was a bit stumped on this one. lol
I live in the Dallas area too, but I’m very new to discovering a love for flipping. We have very similar taste in color and in celebrating the natural wood. I would love to just sit down with you and ask a bunch of questions!
Thank you for your thorough explanations about why you do this/that with your flips. I’m a school administrator, so I appreciate good teachers!
God bless and happy flipping ♥️
Forgot to say that I am a new subscriber. Major love for Desert DIY, so I found you through her.
Aww that's great! I love Cory too!

Just a GORGEOUS Transformation 👏👏 ❤️❤️ IT
Congratulations on your Goal to b Debt Free 👏👏
Thank you so much! We appreciate you tuning in! Hope to see you next week!
Chevron hasn’t been popular since about 1977 even my Barbie had a disco dress with a black and red shiny chevron design! It was definitely painted on recently to this late 80s early 90s piece.
Thank you so much! We appreciate you tuning in! Hope to see you next week!
I love the stencil with that hardware! So pretty!
Thanks so much! Appreciate you watching friend!
Great job 👏
Thank you so much!!
Cathy here. Fabulous work! I love this. Any ideas on doing a dry sink update?
Really like this 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
designabeej Thank you! We appreciate you watching!
Great flip❗️I wasn’t sure about the stencil, but the end result looked awesome 👏🏼 Congrats for becoming free of bills! 😻
Thank you so much! We appreciate you tuning in! Hope to see you next week!
Do you typically chalk paint and poly the hinges?
Just found you you did a great job looks good.
Thank you so much! Always love having new people to our little space! Have a great week!
Great information. Thank you. Beautiful after. 😍
Thank you so much! We appreciate you tuning in! Hope to see you next week!
I think someone taped and painted the top.
It's beautiful. I was listening to Dave's show the day you announced you're debt free. Congratulations. I just foud your channel so I'm a new subscriber.
Awesome! Thank you! This is so great! We're happy to have you!
The brown to white on front seems out of balance. The chevron was popular about 10+ years ago for somebody, not me. I believe it was painted on.The piece seems "heavy." I think it needs legs and take that bottom dated apron off.
thanks for your comment!
Regardless of how the chevrons got there, you really leaned into them with the style of this piece. It just all ties together so beautifully. I hope you're proud of this one, I sure would be!
Good luck on your journey. Paying off everything and being comfortable in retirement really IS living the dream. :) I believe in you!
Thank you very much! This is my favorite comment! Hope to see you back here next week!
Loved it more before, al natural, stencels is to much for me, tastes are different
Fair enough! Thank you for watching!
Someone probably taped the chevron design on there then painted it
yep! I agree! They were a pro lol ! Thanks for watching!
nopity-nope-nope !!!!!!!
Someone loved it! Thx
BE HONEST WITH YOU THE STANSILING YOU DID WRONG ,I CAN TELL ON THE SIDE MISSING PATERN AND I CAN SEE WHERE YOU DID CONNECT OF STENCIL,NEXT TIME YOU SHOULD CUT ,CONNECT THEN PUT HOLE PIECES ON DOOR .IS LOOK LITTLE SLOPPY STANSILING JOB I KNOW YOU LIKE TO SAVE PATERN BUT IF YOU WAND GOOD MONEY FOR THIS NEXT TIME DO IT RIGHT
Pam stop yelling at me. Thx!
My X in laws had that almost identical piece it had a mirror with it an NO it didn’t have those chevrons. The plain golden oak era! Nice job!!!
Thanks so much for watching hope to see you back here next week!
You run the paint gun fanning really tight. How do you know the compression without a regulator?
I wondered that as well, what are your settings if you have a regulator at the compressor rather than at the base of the spray gun?
The middle of the white doors maybe same stencil but brown?
ohhh that would have been sweet!! Great idea! Thanks for watching!
Great transformation! Yes it was painted. That era pieces did not come painted with chevron from the manufacture. That was a later pattern that started the last few years
This Dresser is from 1983 .I purchaed one just like it! A Broyhill
Do you always paint over door hinges, or do you sometimes remove them before painting?
Could the chevron pattern have been a decal of some sort? So many people have those machines to make those now.
If I had my own house and I came across that dresser I would turn it into a double vanity.
how about JUST PAINT slogan, on Annie Sloane paint line?
Do you have a list of the start up supplies to flip furniture? I’m wondering if you have a list with brand list. Also was there a book you had studied regarding the steps, or was it learning through TH-cam? Just wondering. I’m really inspired and want to have extra income to pay off debt.
Okay, I do see your links. Just figured it out! 😂
Beautiful colors and love the stenciling! Such a great transformation! Congratulations on reaching your debt-free goal!
The top wood grain turned out beautiful & I love the stencil with those beautiful pulls! What an awesome south western/boho transformation ❤️
Thanks so much! I love it too!!
Woooow well done !!!! So beautiful and chic now !!! Greetings from Belgium, Europe.
Thank you so much! We appreciate you tuning in! Hope to see you next week!
Definitely added later. But your right they did a great job.
Lovely
Congratulations on a beautiful flip. I have a question about your 401(k)? I too, along with my wife, participate in FPU. In fact we are debt free and have taught the class several times. After being hit w cancer twice in the past 5 years, I had to stop working and cannot contribute to my 401k. How are you able to contribute to a 401k or IRA if your husband is self-employed?
I’ve thought about starting my own business, creating a corp. and paying myself a salary..allowing me to contribute to my retirement because now I’d have an income. Not sure… Thank you and God bless!
Hi James- My husband went back to work in 2021 so he helps me on the weekends but not full time like before. So, we do the max contribute to his company 401 and then will open a ROTH after we have that maxed up to our 15% like Dave recommends. So very sorry to hear about your health issues. Please know you will be in my prayers.
@@LemonstoLemonadeFurniture Ah, that makes sense, thank you. Thank God I am presently cancer free; 5 months post bone marrow transplant. God sustains us. I am so excited about starting to transform old ugly furniture. You guys make a great team!
Love your channel! When's the next challenge or collaborations...I'd love to be a part.
Hello! We have a FB page called Flippin Fab TH-camrs and we post upcoming collabs in there. Thanks!
the chevron pattern came back in vogue in the last15 years or so. With that in mind my guess is that someone painted it on with a previous update.
Yes I would agree! Thanks so much for watching hope to see you back here next week!
Kinda like the subtle chevron on top! Fun piece!
Me toooo!!! It really added to the south west vib! lol gotta love it when something works out like that!
I think someone painted the design. This is just a guess. I think it's a buffet/sideboard.Long low dressers like generally don't have those doors.
I did sell it as a buffet but it was a dresser with matching nightstands. Crazy huh!
@Lemons To Lemonade TX yup! As long as the buyer was happy that's all that matters.
OOOOOOOH! Looks sooo good Kara!
thank you love!
Hi, what goal tracker are you using? That’s such a great idea. Thank you
Hello! I googled Dave Ramsey goal trackers and a bunch came up in the images so I picked the one we were working on and took it to Staples to have it enlarged! It will be great to keep us on track! Thanks for watching!
Great piece. It turned out beautifully
It looks beautiful ty 4sharing 🥰🥰🥰🥰😇
You are so welcome! Thank you for watching! Hope to see you next week!
Maybe they had a flipping pro paint the top! Does look better than average!
I agree!! lol
Stenciling looks fabulous!
Great job giving that big outdated piece such a light fresh new vibe. Your financial successes and goals are extremely inspiring. You'll get there!
Thanks so much!! Appreciate your support sooo much!
Simply amazing! Well done.
I love the alabaster color over the raw wood. Sanding the color down a bit gave it a nice soft tone and really pulled the drawers together. I would assume the chevrons were done by someone who was very talented with stenciling. I would think maybe they used tape to make it so crisp, but that's a lot of taping. Beautiful result!
Thanks a bunch! We all know how much work would go into those crisp lines don;t we! lol have a great week!
How do you date you furniture?
Félicitations! J’adore les motifs et les couleurs.
AKM B Thank you! We appreciate you watching!
Youre one of my favourites on youtube.your style is unique .great job inspires me a lot to try new things..
oh thank you! you made my day! I appreciate you being here!!
@@LemonstoLemonadeFurniture youre welcome.all the way from Italy👍
Not a common top design for date of dresser. Someone updated it.
Agreed! It was a perfect stencil job! Thanks for watching!!
Great job !I love to watch your videos.
Thank you very much! That means the world to me!
Do you do any of the prep work? Or just the fun easy parts
Hmm...finding, purchasing, loading, unloading, cleaning, vacuuming, pre-stage pics, idea planning, supply buying, stenciling while I hold my breath, polying, staging, pictures for selling and ads, videoing the process, editing for 8 hrs to make a YT video for others to enjoy and/or leave ugly comments on, selling, haggling over price, helping load the buyer, starting the process all over again....have I covered the fun easy parts? Thanks for watching!
Chevron left a light shadow as though it was a white wash.
Yes! It was a really fun unplanned surprise and the lady that purchased it really liked that! Thank you for watching!
Aww that’s so cool you guys got to go to the Ramsey Show!!
Thanks so much for watching hope to see you back here next week!
So much better. I love it!
thank you friend! I am excited to sell this one and see what kind of feedback we get with that! thanks for watching!
Wow looks amazing, love the stencil process, beautiful work
Thanks so much 😊 thanks for watching friend!
Looks like the chevrons were painted on
JW Thank you! We appreciate you watching! I agree!
Love watching your transformations. Beautiful as always
Love this transformation!! Super boho!! So cute!
ah! Thank you so much for watching! have a great week friend!
Gol-LEEE, how do you just break off so many drawer pulls like that?
You are great with the stencils. At the Dollar General, I got a stack of 30 stencils a little bigger than a deck of cards, they are heavy cardboard, but I have used them many times, since the paint just makes them more durable. I wonder how a plain, slight design would have been on those center panels? Those doors look a little plain compared to the rest. Anyway, great result. AND Congratulations. MY opinion on the chevrons on top, they were added 5 years ago and the pulls were painted.
Yes! I think they were added too! I just was surprised on how totally perfect they were! Looked like a big 'ole stamp just rolled across the top! Anyway, thanks for watching! Missed ya on the last few videos! Hope you have a great week!
so so so good!
Really love ❤ the wood accents!
Julia Helland Thank you! We appreciate you watching!
Newly subscribed!!! I Loved!!! I actually was sceptical of the stencil, but it turned out so beautiful!! I love garden & color. Thank you for sharing something new to me!!!!
Thanks for subbing! We are thrilled to have you!!
Lovely🌹
Just watched and knew I had to subscribe. Great teamwork and beautiful finish. Having a goal is so inspiring for all of us. It will be exciting to watch your progress. 😉😉
Thanks for subbing! Comments like these make my day! It's so hard to put that kind of stuff out there but I find it motivating and I just hope others do too! I am so glad to have you here! Thanks Martha!
It looks like an oak dresser. Oak was huge in the 90's and it was always natural, with that slight orange tinge to it. My mom has a whole living room set still she got in the 90's. So someone had painted the chevron on top. If it was from the factory, the whole dresser would have been painted. Not just the base and chevron top. That style didn't appear until mid 2000.
Oak soaks and absorbs so that is my guess of why you have a residual pattern left over. Prestain may have helped that, but i dig the subtle look it gives.
Yes! yes! It was pretty cool with the stencil. Prestain would have been good huh? I did some mineral spirits to clean and thats when I first saw it. but i figured it would flow well. Thanks for watching!
great job, looks perfect
Thank you! Cheers!
Amazing transformation!
Thank you Joyce!
Another beautiful transformation! I'm loving everything you do. Congratulations on your debt payoff journey! Can you please link the stencil pack you used?

Thanks so much! 😊
That dresser turned out fantastic. Great job. I love seeing a family becoming debt free. God bless you as you continue to work towards your goals.
Thank you so much! We appreciate you tuning in! Hope to see you next week!
They probably did paint the Chevron top if the hardware is also painted. I love how the stencil came out. It adds some warmness to the piece.
I think so too! Man they did a fantastic job! lol Thanks for watching!
Fabulous. Well done
Many thanks Emer! I always look forward to your comment! Hope to see you here next week!

Wow!!!! Gorgeous transformation! Just beautiful! 👏🌹
Anita Kalli Thank you! We appreciate you watching!
Motifs non centrés sur les tiroirs.
Yes I agree! They were most likely added after but they are good!!
@@LemonstoLemonadeFurniture : j’ai la " faculté " de voir immédiatement ce qui n’est pas droit ou pas centré ! Un tableau en biais de quelques millimètres au mur me donne envie de le redresser ! Pass facile quand on n’est pas chez soi 😁
Turned out beautifully! I love the stencil!
thank you sooo much! super fun challenge!
I love it! The stencil and pulls made the piece nice job.
Yes! Thank u! It was a fun flip!
