I love how you explain your process in every video. Also, that you're transparent with learning along the way. Definitely appreciate what you're doing.
Hi Loren I have a question I have a French provincial bedroom suit is the poster bed a dresser and a chest I’m 67 years old and I got this when I was a little girl I still have it it needs painted desperately so my question is should I use like a roll on like Beyond paint or chalk paint with a sealer? HELP!
The butter cream is gorgeous as is the dark dark blue. I think they would be gorgeous in the same room for a real pop........it would be a special room but I totally could see it. Thomasville Furniture was untouchable when I wanted it back in the 60's......... I did get a French provincial dresser in 65" and still have it in a closet waiting to redo it. It's been through four generations now and back to the original owner, me. I am delighted to have it and I believe the mirror also. I can't wait to get it out in the spring and try my hand at it...........your work is beautiful! TYFS
This is Ellie from the U.K and I absolutely am in awe of your fantastic furniture flipping skills. I use to do it but now I’m going to go back to it because of you. Thank you for being so inspirational to watch. The way you’re going you’ll soon have a down payment on a house. Good Luck. X
We have some great things planned! May include more videos here and there! But be sure to catch us on FFT Fridays on Dixie Belle’s Channel for these same style videos! 🤗
Hi Lauren. ❤️❤️ them All 👍👏 Your not the only one that gets mixed up with colours for clients! Thank goodness you Sold the Cream one 😜 You’ve Come Along Way Girl 😃 Good on Ya !
I am sooooo glad u mentioned cleaning before you sand. Bc usually I do but this last piece I’m working on.. I didn’t. I opted to clean after so that I wasn’t double working myself. Lesson learned. Thank you for that flip tip. I’m sure I’ll be commenting more as I watch. Lol
That TSP-in-a-spray-bottle is genius ! Watching you work so thoroughly is inspirational. You are so enjoyable to watch ! Thank you for putting it all on video
I have been watching since your very first videos. So proud that you have been able to make a career out of reinventing furniture. I bought and refurbished furniture for 6 years until I burned out. We had more and more people come on facebook that slapped paint on furniture then sold it for nothing. Customers would want to know why I asked such a higher price for my work or pieces that I done. I always told them I was a professional that had may hours of classes to learn the proper way to paint furniture. That way I could stand behind my work. I don’t think those who were weekend painters were going to give them a guarantee of their work. I finally got tired of trying to get the prices. Not only that ,we had so many people on facebook painting furniture the prices of used furniture was ridiculous prices. I sure wish I had known about TH-cam back then. I certainly would have started a channel teaching to paint or restore to original with stains and topcoats. I sold to a wholesaler that had the facebook following in the thousands . I had a booth in an antique store and also had my own facebook page with a pretty good local following. I also sold on marketplace. We had so many painters here because we had so many thrift stores and antique stores. Our town is known for Antique Alley. Anyway long story to say congratulations for making a success out of what you want to so. Be careful not to burn yourself out. I am seventy and it was getting too hard for me to handle all that furniture by myself anyway. So i gave it up last year.
Thanks for sharing. What an amazing journey you have had. A lot of knowledge. Glad you have time for a well deserved retirement. Enjoy!! Driving Miss Daisy
Yes! Thanks for sharing! I am also beginning to see a bit of a saturated market but I do think people will fade away as they reach their goals. I am trying to also build up a local following! Have fun in retirement! Thanks for watching and supporting!
Wow!! These turned out so beautiful!! You have a natural talent! Just wondering how much time went in on refinishing these pieces from start to finish? Keep up the amazing work!!
You're my favorite flipper to watch, Lauren! So easy to follow the process and I enjoy how you describe your thinking process with each project-with us! Thank you!
I have been looking for an entire set of French Provincial furniture to redo for myself for over 3 years. You can’t find them where I live. I am extremely jealous. $100 is a steal for a whole set.
Yes, this was an epic find! And somehow I got 2 almost identical sets for $100 each just about 3-4 weeks apart. It was definitely a fluke! Haven't seen any that cheap since! Hope you find yours soon! (: Thanks for watching!
@@FurnitureFlippingTeacher Thank you. I'll tag you on Instagram once I have it done. You are a huge inspiration for me to start doing this on my own. ♥️
I’m not a French country style person. Except now that I see these pieces in dark colors, I’m changing my mind! I could also see gold striping added ala Kacha. In your free time (now that you’re in business for yourself, you probably don’t have much), I recommend dashner design and restoration TH-cam Channel. He's into staining so not your style quite yet. However, he has to do repairs and he strips wood with a paint stripping scraper, which he says is faster than sanding. I thought you might enjoy his channel to learn about how some pieces are made. He's a one man show I think. I'm excited to come along your new adventure!
WOW! All the pieces turned out so beautiful! Happy for you making a great profit on the three matching and the "Likely" possibility of the other piece selling soon.
I love BOTH colors! And I am cannot wait to see them “ flipped “! The hardware looks really good! I have heard of someone using an old crockpot on warm overnight with the vinegar in it. ?? It may take off more of the gunk without as much hand pain.
I had that very same set 35 years ago. 9 years ago I gave it away because it was huge, now I regret it and I wish I had refurbished it. Your things looks so nice
Love your vids!! As you get more established and Nieman gets more video skills I hope you still keep this kind of format. I love how long they are so I don't have to keep changing videos very often. I also love that I don't have to be watching every second. I am able to enjoy your videos at work while I listen and occasionally look at the footage. Most tutorials are not like that. I really appreciate how you explain everything with words and we don't have to be actually seeing what you're doing every single second. Keep up the good work ❤️ love from Wisconsin
What an amazing price you purchased them for. I found same beautiful dresser painted in white chalk asking $600, almost bought it, but the white was too white, would not have worked and too beautiful to repaint. I do regret not getting.
I love when I find stuff, I have a old keepsake box that I put everything in as a treasure. I have the coolest thing I have found is a collection book of early 1900’s pennies. (Some value at $20 but no jack pot lol)
I love french provincial, so look forward to seeing more. Glad that mix up worked out for you! Hopefully things won't be quite as stressful now that you will have the extra time to focus on the furniture. 💖💖💖
I have the same set that was passed down from my Grandma before she passed. I have not wanted to paint it because of the sentimental value but I'm thinking I will now. 💜
I love the makeover, and wow did you get lucky with pricing and having extra furniture to fix the coloring mistake. It all worked out in the end and the furniture turned out beautiful.
😮😮😮. Mind = BLOWN. I am SO STOKED to hear there are FFT Fridays!!!! Eeeek! ❤
Yepper! We've got 6 videos over there as of now! Thanks for supporting, Sarah!
I love how you explain your process in every video. Also, that you're transparent with learning along the way. Definitely appreciate what you're doing.
Thanks, Katrina! Glad you’re hear to learn! 😀 Thanks for watching!

Awesome Ellie! Good luck getting back into it! I'm happy you're going to give it another go! Thanks for watching !
I was looking forward to seeing 2 tone. Leaving the wood tops on them...I love how those turn out..
I thought the dining room set was a marathon and here you go again with another Marathon. You are an amazing young woman my dear Lauren😍
Yep yep yep! So true! The bigger the project, the bigger the profit 😀 Thanks for watching!
I hope to get more videos now that you are doing this full time. If not that’s ok too. Just keep doing what you’re doing. You are so talented at this.
We have some great things planned! May include more videos here and there! But be sure to catch us on FFT Fridays on Dixie Belle’s Channel for these same style videos! 🤗
French Provincial has always been my fav. Also looks good with so many decor styles.
Loving it! Thanks for watching!
I love how you are so organized
I love this! I've never been a fan of black furniture, but I'm eyeing my furniture to see which piece I want to paint black with gold hardware!
These pieces turned out fantastic
Hi Lauren. ❤️❤️ them All 👍👏
Your not the only one that gets mixed up with colours for clients!
Thank goodness you Sold the Cream one 😜
You’ve Come Along Way Girl 😃
Good on Ya !
We’ll see if I sell it tomorrow! 🤗 glad this mistake worked out for me 😅
They turned out so beautiful
We had a week of rainy dreary weather in Topeka, Kansas too. Hot and muggy today, but sunshine and 80 degrees. Felt so good.
I love deep blue that so beautiful real rich look
I am sooooo glad u mentioned cleaning before you sand. Bc usually I do but this last piece I’m working on.. I didn’t. I opted to clean after so that I wasn’t double working myself. Lesson learned. Thank you for that flip tip. I’m sure I’ll be commenting more as I watch. Lol
You mentioned cleaning out the inside later, but you started painting and never mentioned at what point you cleaned the inside. Just curious?
You did an amazing job. They all turned out so beautiful. And I learned some new things. Thank you!!
That’s some beautiful furniture. You stole that @ that price. Beautiful job!!
I love going back and watching your old videos
Those are drop dead GORGEOUS
That TSP-in-a-spray-bottle is genius ! Watching you work so thoroughly is inspirational. You are so enjoyable to watch ! Thank you for putting it all on video
Yes it is a game changer and really helps save on the usage of the tsp cleaner.
Thanks for watching Rio 😊

You’re amazing Lauren!

Those pulls are beautiful. Love both the midnight and the buttercream.
I am so impressed by the results cleaning the hardware. All of the pieces turned out awesome! You are a master!

Deep blue/black is aaaamazing for furniture👍👍👍.

Thanks! Trying to give the most info as possible! This is our video style(: Thanks for watching!
Beautiful work. Love those colors.
Thank you - French provincials are some of my absolute favorites!
I’m not a French country style person. Except now that I see these pieces in dark colors, I’m changing my mind! I could also see gold striping added ala Kacha.

I have heard of someone using an old crockpot on warm overnight with the vinegar in it.
?? It may take off more of the gunk without as much hand pain.
Thank you! I have also heard of the crockpot! May have to try it! Thanks for watching!
Beautiful! I am starting a long dresser and bed frame in a navy blue soon. Fingers crossed it looks as good as yours!
Take your time and it will 😊 Good luck! Thanks for watching!
Wow!!! Those pieces turn out amazing 🤩 The both color is beautiful and the hardware gorgeous.

Everything looks GREAT... and believe me, I rarely say that.
Its all in the name 😊 furniture Flipping teacher 😊
Hahah you know it (;
I love when I find stuff, I have a old keepsake box that I put everything in as a treasure. I have the coolest thing I have found is a collection book of early 1900’s pennies. (Some value at $20 but no jack pot lol)
It's fun to see what you may find! Cool...a penny collection! Keep saving and maybe one day they'll be worth more!
OMG! A HUNDRED! wow for the WHOLE SET! Came out fantastic as usual!
I hope you get the full price for your dresser, it’s gorgeous. Every piece was so beautiful. Great job.
This would be the 2nd dream set for me....1st is teak mcm! I probably would never paint them, but I could.
Your work is stellar!
Thank you!!
Wow, these turned out amazing. Just stumbled upon your channel and absolutely love your work. Greets from The Netherlands.
Beautiful as usual!
Thanks, Barbara!
I love french provincial, so look forward to seeing more. Glad that mix up worked out for you! Hopefully things won't be quite as stressful now that you will have the extra time to focus on the furniture. 💖💖💖
