  • This wood furniture base is simple enough for anyone to try! After building the @diywife wood base just a few times, I got the hang of it enough to try it out with angles.

    I'm so appreciative of your instructions. I've watched DIYWife and a few others explain this, but your explanations are by far the best I've encountered. I've saved several of your videos because you have a remarkable ability to make complex tasks feel accessible and achievable. Your clear and concise guidance truly makes me feel confident that I can do it too!

    The added trim was one of those times we call "happy mistakes". Because it added charecter to the piece. Nice job

    Something I just learned: buy a crosscut blade for the miter saw for cleaner cuts 👍🏽
    The blade it comes with is an all purpose blade.

    Even though you didn't plan on adding trim it turned out beautiful sucks there was water damage did you still sell the piece? if so how much did you get for it? If you didn't sell it because of the water damage it would be nice to donate it to a family in need it would make someone very happy and you could use it as a tax write off....
    I love the way the piece turned out it is beautiful...

    Hi! I just found your channel and im really excited to start flipping some pieces! If you don't mind me asking, how much net profit before taxes do you bring in per year doing this? I live in a HCOL so I'm trying to get creative while managing my existing eBay clothing resale business

    I can't get behind scripted voice over after-the-fact narration. It never quite works, even on channels with millions of subs. Talking naturally to the camera while you work is so much more engaging and easy to follow. Mustie1 style > Nile Red style. Love your channel though and would marry.

    • @flippedbyabby
      @flippedbyabby  หลายเดือนก่อน +2

      I really appreciate this feedback!! I've been getting away from the voiceovers and try just talking to the camera now if you've noticed in my newer videos! It's just a skill to get comfortable on camera like that

      New here. I don't mind narration over video. Imo, it explains easier while showing in depth what's going on with the teaching. I'm brand new to furniture flipp'in but I'm loving it and am excited about learning tips and tricks to change the look of older pieces in more modern look. Of course I'm not talking about changing antique pieces. But modernizing others some possibly ugly vintage though. Glad I found your channel. New sub here. 😀
      Ps. After I found you, going back to older videos to pick up your background story. 👍
      Native floridian here though moved to NE Alabama on Lookout mountain in 2015. It got oo crowded and I was tired of all the humidity and heat in FL after 50 yrs. Lol Lovin' the mountains.

      @@DonnaRatliff1 thank you so much for following along!!! I think the trick is a combination of both talking to the camera and voice! I agree it’s easier to learn by showing the clip while explaining at the same time!
