- I was out and about thrifting for things to put in my new apartment when I came across this diamond in the rough! It was nowhere close to what I envisioned in my head for my decor but I had a plan and was able to bring it to fruition for UNDER $150!! Let me know what you think of the final look!

You’re not just a ‘furniture flipper’, you’re a furniture ‘crafter’. Love your remakes and your presentation style!😍🇨🇦
appreciate that!
Wish you and Nieman nothing but the best in your seperate journeys! Great job on this piece! ❤
Wait, what? What happened to Newman? Why is the store closed? Did I miss an episode? If so, let me know which one so I can watch and get caught up. Thank you in advance.
Whoa! I'm used to seeing wood furniture painted black, but this was a stunning reversal of that. Great work! 👏👏👏
thank you so much!
I love what Harrison has done with the editing. Really good. Your piece is beautiful and looks great in your space.
Thank you so much! so lucky to have him!
Wow Lauren, that piece is impressive. It looks phenomenal. I love the bottom base piece you did and it looks so good in the natural wood with the contrast.
thanks! glad you like it !
I have been watching you channel for years. I still love the way you teach, making us feel confident before we even get a good start . I am looking for a class here in Jax, Fl to learn how to use power tools with confidence. Sanders... Yep got it. Saws and jigs ....not so much. ( I was an ER Nurse ..seen how bad the injuries are when you dont know what you're doing ..bad stuff. (Also glass topped tables are freaking dangerous as a saws!)
Btw love how that console turned out. I have four pieces to redo for my future apt. Dresser has so much potential to be beautiful! Two night stands that don't match, but will. A coffee table, and a dining set. Can't wait to start!!!!!
WOW! What an awesome transformation for this piece of furniture! Lauren, I began watching you in 2019 or maybe even in 2020. At the time you were still a school teacher. I have enjoyed watching your confidence & skills grow through the years. I'm proud of the transformation I've seen in you!
I've just recently found your channel and I'm obsessed!! Love watching your videos and your work! Makes me wanna go and buy a bunch of used furniture and get started!
The only Issue I have is YOU MAKE IT LOOK SO EASY even though I know how detail oriented you are. You're a super motivator and inspiration.❤❤
You did a real amazing job on that piece of furniture. I love it. Thanks for sharing.
thank you !
I’m so surprised. I really didn’t think this could look good,but as usual, you made something beautiful!
I love how your style is more and more sophisticated. I found myself refining my style too with time and experience.
It does look way better and more updated without the glass. Good call!
So glad you are back to flipping furniture. Keep up the great work
I am pretty much flipping furniture every week (:
@@FurnitureFlippingTeacher so happy to see you create great treasures. Please keep up the good flips. You will have a beautiful apartment from all your flipped pieces. Makes it so much more special
I just started following you and I absolutely love your content. So much so, that your videos gave me that little push to start flipping myself. I just started my first piece this week and I'll start posting videos pretty soon.
PS: I personally dislike that people have to ask about your personal life. You share what we feel like sharing and that should be enough.
Keep up the amazing work!
thanks for your support!
Come on guys! We come here because of Lauren’s creativity and transformations. She has been gracious enough to share moments of her personal life. Thank you!
That doesn’t entitle us to knowing every detail.
IF she decides to share let it be in her own timing. IF she decides NOT to share let that be that.
Stop trying to get the “T” about people. Think of others as you would yourself.
I am here for the flips and enjoy every video. So as her designated (by me) big sister, anyone asking again will be will be immediately put into time out.
Okay, the time out part is just the teacher in me😊.
😊
🙄
I just want to know about the hinges! Like others have asked about.
I love the transformation: it looks so high end!
thank you! I agree!
You are a magician! I’ve watched you from the very beginning of your furniture flipping journey. You are a really good and conscientious teacher and you have come such a long way. I wish you the best.
Such a perfect example of how flipping furniture saves a ton of money AND allows you to customize your piece! Your apartment looks so bright and fresh ❤
It’s stunning - it looks really high end! 💕💕💕👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
thank you! I am in love with it! (:
Haha Neiman… liked the little editing where you had Lauren hammering to the beat of the music in the beginning 😂
Harrison edits the videos. 😃 he’s great!
I think Harrison is doing a AMAZING JOB. 😊😊😊😊
You have gained so much skill since I began watching your channel!
Lauren not sure if anyone mentioned but you are looking absolutely beautiful! Love the redo you did as well!
Thanks so much! I’m glad you like the makeover too! 😊
The transformation is really stunning and beautiful! It looks great in your new space!
thanks so much!
Wow. Gorgeous! Very professional. I appreciate you!
That looks fabulous. I’ve seen others use that paint on their bathroom vanities.

Wow! That looks incredible. You are meticulous with everything, resulting in a great piece.

A great shade of wood-look. I love those wood base additions I’ve seen throughout the diy community… One day I’ll give it a try 😊. I’ve tried Retique It before and it is an excellent product. Enjoyed this video. 🍁

dang 4 days is legit!! nice job! those two color natural wood tones really look great! ive got the same color wood flooring and im finding it hard to decorate. I keep trying to bring in brown tones which I dont usually like but the gray can be dreary for me.. lighting had done wonders..
Wow. Just wow. 😍

Such an elegant transformation! Love the new look! BTW, love that each day you have a new hair style and new fingernail polish color! Rocking the new looks! Cant’ wait for more! Are you planning to do some projects in your new apt that are renter allowable? The apt looks like it has some good bones to it. Anyway, prayers and positive vibes your way! B~}
Oh thank you! (: i moved here in May so I have done some projects already without really sharing bc I wasn't ready. but anything else I end up doing will definitely be shared with you all! Thanks for watching!
Please help me- what is her new hair style?
Her new look?
@@janzitterkopf1630Have no idea what they are talking about 😬
@@ThrifterPicker I hope she and Neiman can work things out. They took on so so much.
Beautiful!!!
Magnificent job ❤
Look at you being all girly with those painted fingernails. They look very nice.😊
You will enjoy this so much, it is practical and gorgeous. You are talented. Your teapot is a Brown Betty from England, I think.
So much better! Nice work as always!
I have a cherry wood entertainment center in excellent shape. I consider it a beautiful piece of furniture that could be used many ways.
That came out amazing! Great job!
You are surely talented Lauren.
This is awesome, hello I'm from Vietnam looking forward to the next video ❤❤🎉🎉
Lauren, your work is amazing! So beautiful!
Thank you so much!
Love the way it came out! ❤️

Great job!!..you should order the athena drill from Natalie over at designs to the nines ❤it’s a fast drill built with a woman in mind
Well done AGAIN! Thanks for all of your inspiration ❤
glad you enjoyed!! thanks for watching!
These are my favorite content of your videos. Such a great teacher.😊
Glad you like them!
Beautiful
Seriously trying to get this product over here in Scotland 🏴 is driving me up the wall, can,t buy it for less that £150.00/£200.00 😱 you’ve done a fabulous job, you know you are an exceptional furniture artist and cabinet builder. I’ve been following you ( not in a creepy stalker way😳) I’ve been struggling with personal issues and being a mental health nurse kinda makes it worse, but you and another artist I follow have been an inspiration… I have my brushes and paint out and recently bought a few pieces to flip…. So thank you so much, your a great lassie and really involve us all in you tutorials 🛠️Look after yourself, and surround yourself with people that make you laugh , Cheeio 🏴😊
It takes time and patience, also having space for inventory helps tremendously. Some pieces starting out you make little profit but it'll help build up your portfolio, build relationships with stores and surrounding community and with time and patience you'll be making a decent profit.
Also some pieces may need stuff added to it to help raise your prices to increase profit.
This is beautiful! I love this application of the Retique It. Love your videos!
Did I miss what you did to the hinges? Did you paint them? This piece came out beautifully!
That turned out beautifully. Thanks for demonstrating that product I hadn’t seen that before.
Beautiful makeover!
An absolutely fabulous piece of work!🤩
Thank you! Cheers!
I love what you did with this piece!❤
thank you!! 😊
Lauren, How did you get the primer off of the hinges? Hand sanding? Or did you replace them?
I’m so motivated to try that product! Thank you Lauren ❤
Great job Lauren thank you for sharing. Loved this video
Thanks for watching!
Aww you found a place for your wee tea pot 😀🏴
Beautiful transformation! One comment...on your replacement panels for the glass doors...wood grain on doors is typically vertical. Your replacement doors appear to have a horizontal grain pattern, usually reserved for drawer fronts.
Amazing job. Love the piece❤
One word WOW!
That's a beautiful piece. I am going to start using that paint.
Well done!👍🏻
thank you!
Love the transformation.😊 But how did you get the Retique it off the door hinges? Did you just paint them black again after the wood look paint job?
Wow! Gorgeous transformation! Fabulous job!
Stunning! 🤩
Amazing transformation, you're so talented!
I love ! It's Beautiful
Great job.
Thank you! 😊
Beautiful! I love it!
Thank you! 😊
Great job, beautiful work 🎉🎉🎉
It’s fantastic!❤
Love it! Now you did not have to seal it? Wax? It is beautiful😁😁😁
Looks beautiful
Thank you! Cheers!
Geeze. Speechless. Gorgeous transformation.
Thank you! 😊
i love it!
