I love them all! It's hard to choose just one. I'm amazed at the sale prices in your market. Locally, pieces would sell for 1/2 of yours. I redo pieces for myself and family members. I follow you for inspiration and technique/skills. ❤
I love all of them but I am drawn to the garage sale piece…it’s just very unique looking & I think it’s very cool! I like seeing something you don’t find every day. Great compilation video! I’m inspired! 🦋
I think that they are all fabulous! Your work is always so inspiring and beautiful. Always makes me want to get out to the garage and flip some furniture
All looked so beautiful! I think the yard sale purchase was my fav. I have used Retique-It before… I like the product. You have inspired me to pull it out for another project. -Jill 😘
I'm going to try refinishing furniture in my area of Northeast Alabama. Im going to stay busy working on pieces this winter. It's rural here but see how it goes. I may also advertise in my home state of Florida as well and keep inventory there. Guess I'll see how it goes. I love painting. I Love doing all sorts of art. So I'm sure it will at least be fun trying.
I adore all of these, but I especially love the burnt sienna of the Boho dresser! Bet she loved it! Your staging is great as well. You make everything seem so effortless!!! Thanks so much for sharing all of your work…even when it doesn’t turn out like you hoped…it makes me feel ok about those occasional screw-ups of my own. Lol
I LOVE LOVE LOVE the faux wood look. I live in Australia and have not been able to find a supplier who sells these kits. If any of your followers live down under and know where to buy them, please let me know 🇦🇺
They are all beautiful. Love the new feet and handles of the Stanley dresser. Cute makeover of your friends dresser. My favorite was the small black chest and the night stands. Thanks for the video. Hope you had a great night out. Enjoyed the video.
Agree with others saying it’s hard to pick one favorite, but for me it would dresser #1. In my area these are all over the place for the picking, seriously there are usually at least 2 there are listed for “free” just please pick up! And they really look good from a repair and structure standpoint, so I think I will try my hand at these dressers. Also the nightstands are not as plentiful but the matched pairs are of similar design so I can see doing a dresser and nightstand set and selling them for???? My market is terribly what’s a polite word for cheap? There are some things that do sell for high priced but in my area it seems to make no difference in refinished or ready to refinish furniture, people just don’t want to pay very much. I am hoping with this technique to change that. We will see 😊
I really liked #2 but it was so hard to choose. I see a piece of furniture that has hope but I find it hard to come up with ideas for what would make it look best. Any thoughts for inspiration
Have you ever thought about going to a large college at the end of the school year in May. My sister lives near a large university in the Midwest. When the students move out of apartments they put all their stuff on the curb. The entire city has furniture everywhere. You might be able to pick up some older well made antique furniture. And it’s free. Also check out the thrift stores. I imagine the students buy their stuff when they get there and leave it. They don’t have a place to store it. I know if they are moving from one apartment to another apartment and the second one isn’t ready yet they rent a U-Haul for a week to store their things in. Apparently the city is full of furniture on the curbs. North Texas might have lots of stuff.Just a thought.
LL, I personally think that using an oil based graining stain is better. I think you have too much contrast in this top. If you lightly drag a dry brush through it a few times, at various stages of drying, it softens the grain and contrast a LOT less. I also like some fly specks in it, you will see that people will actually think it is wood. 🥰
OOPS! I jumped the gun, that comment was for the first one only. I like the 3rd chest the best. The best graining is on the last night stands. My 2 cents. But do try the dry brush on the still wet stain after you use the tool. It adds more "wood lines" and softens it all. Like your pottery barn technique.
Hubbs and I are getting started to flip furniture! We're wanting to order the kit from Amazon but we're not sure which color to get that you are using on the first piece. Can you tell me which color kit you used? Thanks!!
The orange one was my least favourite. The woodgraining pattern was too regular and looked fake. The top of the bedside tables looked great. The graining pattern looked the most natural of all the patterns. Having used graining tools on several projects, I can agree that it takes some practice but once you get the hang of it, it opens up new possibilities. I love watching your projects and have done so for several years. I am always looking forward to your videos. Unlike some of the content creators' videos, yours are not only for entertainment and to get more likes. They are also very informative, and one can always learn something new. Thank you for that.
have you had an antique piece that the tannins do not come thru without using shellac? I used Zinsser primer and do not see any coming thru yet, should I BE WORRIED?

Yea I know I’m blessed by the market I live in, but shipping is always an option if you want to. Happy to have you here Cindy!

The first two dressers and the night stands equally beautiful.
#2 dresser and the night stands. You’re so talented.
Your market is wayyyyy hotter than mine!! 😮
I Also Loved them All❤ Fav wood graining tool was the one with the night stands. I’m also about color!! Loved the bohemian young ladies dresser!! ❤

Too hard to choose just one! All of them came out incredible’ 👏👏
I love all your transformations!!
They all have their merits. Good job on them all.
I love them ALL!! 💗 Great job, as always 👏 🎉
Loved the night stands. I’ve used this product before and it is very appealing & popular.
I think that they are all fabulous! Your work is always so inspiring and beautiful. Always makes me want to get out to the garage and flip some furniture
Go for it!
Amazing transformations! It's hard to believe they were such ugly ducklings that you turned into swans! Beautiful work!
All looked so beautiful! I think the yard sale purchase was my fav. I have used Retique-It before… I like the product. You have inspired me to pull it out for another project. -Jill 😘
Yes! Thank you! I'm sure it will be amazing!
All of these were beautifully updated. I loved the nightstands, but it really is hard to pick a favorite since all of them so well updated!!!.

I can’t pick a favorite because I loved them all❤❤❤
Thank you Holly!
The little fan favorite was my pick ! 😊
Moving to Dallas soon - can't wait to get selling again! Great pieces - GREAT PROFITS there! Yay!
You can do it!
Love it all! Had to laugh. I was wearing my black striped dress that matches your blue one ( from Walmart).

Thank you @debrahennesy! This makes me smile! So happy to hear! Hope to see you next time!
They all look great Kara! I’ve never tried the kit but I’m thinking I want to. I just wish I could get the same profits that you get. 🥰🥰🥰

First one is the best then nightstands thank you so much for sharing you did abeautiful job with all of them ❤
The yard sale one was great. Really like the friend one too.

I love these flips! Just wish my market down here is Corpus Christi had your kind of $$. I could never pull those prices down here!
I definitely like flip 1,2&4 omg they were awesome looking.
Can you share how long it takes you for every piece please? You do such great work, thank you for sharing!
I loved them all but 2 is my favorite. It is unique. This technique is great and I want to try it.
Yay, thank you!
My favorite is the first one,then the friend one, then the night stands
Thank you so much! I appreciate you tuning in! Hope to see you next time!
I liked the second piece but the bedside units win I think.
Thank you!! Glad to have you in the chat today!
Todos los trabajos te quedaron bellos❤❤❤❤❤
#2, definitely!
I am inspired but I will start with small furniture.
It’s the best place to start!
Source for peel n stick wallpaper?
Also is it hard to remove?
I really liked #2 but it was so hard to choose. I see a piece of furniture that has hope but I find it hard to come up with ideas for what would make it look best. Any thoughts for inspiration
I look up pottery barn and similar catalogs to find inspiration and selling ideas. Hope that helps!

that's a great idea! thanks!
Love them all! Great profit. Do you have to use the retique it glazes & stains with the primer? Or will any work?

Thanks for the tip! I’ll definitely try that next time. :)
What is your most popular color that sells?? Thanks
Black probably
Hubbs and I are getting started to flip furniture! We're wanting to order the kit from Amazon but we're not sure which color to get that you are using on the first piece. Can you tell me which color kit you used? Thanks!!
#2 was my favorite; very different :) what camera do you use; I'm looking for a new one ...
thank you! i use my phone to film and take my pics!
I really liked the first one better. The caviar color in my opinion would appeal to the men.
It will be interesting to learn how Retique it holds up. Does anyone have any idea how it looks a year later?
I have a piece and it is still the same! The epoxy top coat is amazing!
The orange one was my least favourite. The woodgraining pattern was too regular and looked fake. The top of the bedside tables looked great.

Can you show us in detail how you list your items on FB marketplace. I’ve tried but my stuff doesn’t sell. So disappointed. I post very cheap too.
Would the retique work with the pottery barn look? Using the brushes. Not a big fan of the wood training tool.
It sure will!
How can you get a discount on requite?
I can’t I order mine right from Amazon. So sorry.
What color is the kit?
mine is weathered wood
@@LemonstoLemonadeFurniture did you do that on top of the pickle oak?
Thank you 😊
#3 ❤
