I'll be dog gone ! I'm 62 and a professional interior /furniture painter and never in my life did I ever think to use a deck of cards to slip in while painting around a mirror or such.Never too old to learn new tricks !!! Thank you.
So true. 59 y/o here started refinishing furniture at 15(learned don't do it!!!) and painting at 12 with my dad. Was an eye matcher for 7 years. Thanks.
So proud of you. As a nurse, I worked extra shifts and extra jobs to help me pay off my loan. That was nearly 50 years ago. There is nothing greater than a strong work ethic.
@@zoemarie3809 me too!!ive been talking about doing it for years but have been too insecure about it and being on video but she gives me inspiration ❤️
@@aja8505 maybe you could start off not showing your face and do voice overs. When you have gained the confidence then reveal yourself. I know of other youtubers who started off like that. Do not keep yourself back. Go for it!
I'm totally new to furniture flipping. I'm legally permanently disabled & looking for side work that I can do from home. You are such an inspiration! I love how you "keep it simple". Thank you and keep up the great work!
That’s my situation too and I live and care, as much as possible, for my elderly parent and this is literally my dream! Wouldn’t it be great if we lived near each other and could be partners? Blessings to you 💜
That’s my situation as well. Unfortunately I live in an apartment complex and don’t have the means to do this type of work but I am still going to hope/pray that I have my own place someday (soon hopefully) so I can start this type of work to supplement my income.
What an inspiration you are! I will never regret my student loans taken so many decades ago. I took 20 years to pay mine off, but you are a rockstar! Teachers are so incredibly important. I am learning to decorate furniture for fun, not flipping, and I really appreciate the helpful tips that you and others are showing on TH-cam. Before you know it, those loans will be long gone, and then what’s next? A new house, travel?
@@Daniel-xu6kd What backhanded comment? Your just a shit starter. People are lucky to have supportive families. Their also lucky to have them alive.

While these replies did NOT pass the vibe check, homegirl does have a point, albeit hard to swallow. It is a leisure that I think many of us overlook sometimes.
I’m 72 years old and love your channel! My husband and I moved south from New York, ( small apartment after selling our house) to a pretty large house. After watching several of your videos, I started refinishing some of our own furniture to go with our new home. Then I started redoing thrift store finds to add to our home. I’m totally hooked! Currently making a coffee bar for kitchen.
You got a plan, you got a work ethic, you got integrity, and that student loan debt is gonna be conquered sooner rather than later. This is how it is done. Any further life challenges will be met as well, I have a feeling, as well as your being a good example for your students and others in general. Kudos. God bless!
I teach kinder as well and the student loan debt is depressing when I think about it! I started the Dave Ramsey program 1 year ago. I have paid off my credit card, my car, my husband's car and now I just started working on the student loan debt. It's overwhelming because my B.A. I incurred no debt, all of the student loans are from my master's degree. Your channel gives me hope that there can be a light at the end of the tunnel. Thank you!!
I know the amount of the loan can be overwhelming. But look how much you’ve paid off in the last year! I’m so proud of you and your husband. My husband and I did the same thing 15 or more years ago. It was soooo hard, especially in ‘08-‘09 recession hit. But we did it! We started retirement, education funds for the girls (now in college) and bought life insurance. Last year my 52 year old husband died unexpectedly of COVID. The greatest gift he gave to me was financial stability so I can take care of my girls and not have to work full time. This probably won’t happen to you, but if something did happen, you’re better able to take care of yourself now than 1 year ago. And in a year, you will be even so much more secure. You’re doing a great job!!!
Good for NaNa! Many years ago I purchased a refinished dresser from a single mom who was doing the same thing....I’m still using that dresser...and I helped a woman who was trying to help herself.... win, win....
I love how detailed you are with the process including how to get your hands on the pieces. Also I appreciate you getting right to the point and not chattering about irrelevant things during the video!
Just found you....I love how you are taking responsibility of paying off your debt! You are a great example! And your work is beautiful!! Congratulations!!
I’m so impressed with your imagination and work ethic. You motivate me and I’m retired from health care, where we go go go not stop. I’m gonna pick up my pace to continue to fulfill more dreams, thanks to creative ladies like YOU!!👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
Beautiful job. What an inspiration you to many who feel they have no way to earn a living and/or pay debt. I love your attitude, goal oriented and with serious determination. Thank you for sharing your story.
LAUREN!! What an exciting recap!! Is it weird that I'm a bit teary-eyed with joy for you that you were so successful?! Well, weird or not, I am! I am so inspired by your tenacity, and your genuine spirit of gratitude - you are a gem!! I am so excited to see what March brings your way 🙌🎉🎉💪 You got this - see you on the flip side! ❤ Congratulations from Canada, eh!
You are amazing! I’m learning so much watching you. This has become my new passion. I’ll be starting small with my bathroom vanity, and hopefully get better as I go along.
THANK YOU for posting your numbers!!! So exciting!! I am all about the numbers too. Love the everydollar app! Our student loan is in the 90k range. Ugh. Few years yet. But it is coming down. Inch by inch it's a cinch.
Hey! Want you to know that you absolutely inspired me. I’ve been flipping furniture since I was unable to find a therapist during Covid. It’s been therapeutic as well as fun! I have hesitated to create any videos because editing takes me quite awhile. Who edits your videos? In any case, thank you for showing us what’s possible. Congratulations on your progress!
This is my first I subscribed to after watching hundreds of videos. I've bin wanting to flip furniture for some years.Watching your video made it feel like. Yes I can do this. I'm do stoked to begin. Thanks sooooo much!!!!!
I've been binge-watching your videos, and am a new subscriber. I don't plan to flip furniture, but have enjoyed watching your painting processes so I can get enough information to paint my bathroom cabinets in order to sell my house. Your story is so inspirational, and just wanted to say Rock ON, Lauren! You are amazing!
You are such an inspiration. I used to flip furniture in Houston. The market is harder here. I also have a 20k student loan at 71!!! I am working on 2 bedroom sets and watching all you guys videos gave me ideas!
It’s not easy selling anything online. Especially furniture. When I lived in Phoenix I had a hard time selling stuff. People were cheap to the point of being offensively rude. When I was moving I had to literally give away a ton of stuff for free.
Yes, where I live, too, the market for furniture is low. She does a lovely job but in my area, the pieces in this video wouldn't sell for more than $10 to $60.
I absolutely love watching your student debt coming down as a result of your hard work, on top of the furniture flips. I'm excited for the TH-cam party when that debt goes down to $0!
Looking for ways to make money and pay off my debt, i thought of flipping furniture and came across your videos. Thank you so much!! You are an inspiration ❤
Congratulations on your success! You, as a teacher are so deserving, but your talent and drive cannot be overlooked! Stumbling across your video today has given me the courage and drive to start flipping furniture and my crafts and reach a goal I have had my eyes set on for quite some time. Thank you for your inspiration and I look forward to continuing to watch and learn from you as well as to witness you paying off your student debt!
Lauren, you should be proud that you are working so hard to pay off your student loans. They are your responsibility and you have great integrity to be so diligent in paying them off. Congrats.
I think we all have to pay for student loans. Every profession is equally important. She's lucky, she has the support of her family and friends donating and picking up the furniture while she's at work.
@@patgardner3212 I don’t think the poster was meaning she shouldn’t have to pay off the debt as a teacher. I think she was meaning teachers should make enough to pay them off faster without needing a second side job.
Hi Lauren, I know this was after the “snow-pocalypse” (I’m in Dallas where we got several inches of snow, ice, power outages for a week and that’s what we called the storms, which we’re not used to here) and you’ve since paid off you student loan debt and now putting your income towards buying a house ! But W O W, girl!!! Congratulations!! This is so impressive and so inspiring!! You’re around the same age as 2 of my daughters (26 & 28), both using extra income to pay their SD off quicker too. I just love watching and learning from you (I’m the furniture artist/flipper, not the girls). You’re very talented and think it’s fantastic you’ve decided to make this your full time career (although I’m sure you were a great kindergarten teacher). So to thank you for all the content you put out (with the help of Neiman’s awesome AV talent), I’m going to “buy you a cup of coffee”.😊 Best of luck to you and your continued success!💜 Ashley
I watch all your February flips and because of your channel I decided to start give flipping furniture a try. I love that you go step by step and what products you used. I just bought my first dining room furniture off Facebook market to give it a try. So thank you.
I love and hold much respect to you for working towards paying off your debt and using your God given talent to do so. You are not crying and whining for the government to pay it off and in today's world that says volumes of your integrity and character. Great job!!!
This is amazing! Side hustles are imperative to help us in tough times. So many of us have been where you are. I am so glad I found your channel. Blessings as you continue to strive toward your goal. 🤗
Great job... You've 💯% inspired me ♥️ I'm making myself a workspace and gonna flip furniture, in my spare time... It's something I have done as a hobby. And gifter ppl... They loved it... And I loved doing it Thank's for the inspiration... 🙂🙂🙂
Wow....you are amazing! It took me 2 months two finish 2 pieces. You are inspiring! You are definitely a wonderful role model! You will have it paid off my the end of the year!
I've been with with you from the beginning and it's amazing how much you've been able to bring your student loan down. God bless you and keep you Lauren🙏😇
Can you tell me when was her first video? Or the name of it so I can go back and follow her journal from the beginning? Plus I can’t find her Instagram 🤦🏻♀️😂
Really like how fast paced your vids are and how transparent you are - with all the products/processes and costs. Inspired to get upcycling some furniture!
Every piece of furniture that I own I either found for free or really cheap and flipped it for my own personal use, I am currently in school with student loans and this is a great side job for you to pay them down. Congrats, love your channel and work.
God is soooo good. I am soooooo happy & excited for you💚! I have no clue how I found you but here we are. I used to buy cheap & sell to flippers like you & loved it. The look in their eyes as they were imagining that pieces destiny! It was also great quick money. My husband encouraged me to try painting and possibly triple my earnings. UUUUUMMMMM 🦗🦗🦗🦗 from me. I was sooooo afraid & still a little scared. I CAN'T thank you enough for your videos, your spirit, your explanations & your smile!!! I'm rooting for you as you pay off your debt!!!! Thank you for being courageous & sharing the TRUTH good, bad & ugly of flipping. Blessings & I'm excited to start My Journey!!!
Thank you so much for being transparent not only with your flip profits but also your TH-cam ad revenue. It’s really helpful. I just want to say how impressed I am with you finding creative ways to earn extra cash to get out of debt and set yourself up financially in life. I had a great career with 8 years of university behind me but even with that success, the cost of living in my city was so high that I was living paycheck to paycheck like most people are - it was house flipping that helped me eventually accumulate enough equity be mortgage free in my 40s. Stick with it!
Feeling drowned in student loan debt, I've been looking for ways to make the extra money needed and you've confirmed that by being resourceful it can be done. You are an inspiration, Thanks for your TH-cam channel.
This is the kind of channel I’ve been looking for. A channel about content I enjoy, as well as someone who is transparent about her analytics with her audience. Definitely subscribed, and look forward to watching more videos!
What a smart and hard working young woman. Great job! Your explanations are straightforward and clear. It makes me think I could try this myself. Will look into Dixie Belle paint products. All the best!
I'm really glad you are so confident in sticking to the prices you feel that are right. Not doing that has been my downfall. I want to start a school and I need he confidence to trust myself.
Love that you have been working so hard. I've watched you from the beginning . You have inspired me to pay off my car loan. I've been flipping furniture for a long time for part time money . Thanks again I have now hard a new goal
I love that you work so hard to pay down your bills. And that you help shape the minds of your students. I recently watched a video from another gal who used paintable wallpaper on some drawer fronts. The end result looked amazing 🤩. Another thing I wanted to share with you, have you created an LLC? Having all your furniture flipping activities in a business would make all your materials and supplies tax deductible.
Love your videos. I've only refinished one piece of furniture, as a Christmas gift a couple of years ago. I don't have any student loans, but you are an inspiration to me. Thanks for sharing!!!
So proud of you Lauren! You are an inspiration! I can't wait for each video. You put your all into each piece and save a lot of that furniture from going to landfills. So there you go, paying off you loan AND recycling for a cleaner planet!
WoW! Most impressive work!!! Continue flipping and creating more videos. You have learned so much and are willing to share all the good, bad, and ugly (the big spill!). $$$$$$$$$$

yo, i saw that too and i was like...what?! it makes so much sense
That is definitely an awesome trick I too do diyself projects and that is also the first time I've seen the card trick...Cool hack!!
Yeah we use deck of cards when painting cars, like wheels.
That was so smart, I normally use panters tape, and it then cut it off with a blade. No more, totally stealing that play card idea. Thanks
So proud of you. As a nurse, I worked extra shifts and extra jobs to help me pay off my loan. That was nearly 50 years ago. There is nothing greater than a strong work ethic.
I went to nursing school on my GI bill or as I think it's now called Montgomery Bill? I had no debt.,
Me, too! As a nurse, there's always side work available!
I love that you shared the dollar amounts from your projects and you tube profits 😊

I would pay FULL price for all of your pieces. They are absolutely gorgeous.
If I had the money I would pay your entire debt off. Teachers are the most underpaid people in the US! I appreciate you so much!
I am certain that you are also a great kindergarten teacher. I admire your work ethic.
Also! My favorite was the black and raw wood dresser set! You’ve got such a good eye, they were all amazing🌟💝

You are giving me inspiration to do this myself. Love your mixed dressers with the natural wood. That is my favorite
I respect you and what your doing to pay off your student debt your my inspiration may God continue to bless you through others
Thanks! So glad you found some help through this! God Bless!
Congratulations Lauren. You deserve every penny!
God is soooo good. I am soooooo happy & excited for you💚! I have no clue how I found you but here we are. I used to buy cheap & sell to flippers like you & loved it. The look in their eyes as they were imagining that pieces destiny! It was also great quick money. My husband encouraged me to try painting and possibly triple my earnings. UUUUUMMMMM 🦗🦗🦗🦗 from me. I was sooooo afraid & still a little scared. I CAN'T thank you enough for your videos, your spirit, your explanations & your smile!!! I'm rooting for you as you pay off your debt!!!! Thank you for being courageous & sharing the TRUTH good, bad & ugly of flipping. Blessings & I'm excited to start My Journey!!!
You are doing an excellent job. Your videos have inspired me to try to make over our outdated dressers and night stands. TFS. Have a great week!🤑
Need more like you girl. Been self employed for 30 years. Love the hustle!
Imagine how fast you could pay off that loan if you had a nickel for every time you said 'student loan debt'
😉
Great videos, I enjoy watching!
So true! haha!
If only 😂
My fav for this month was the dresser set where the shell was painted black and the drawer fronts stained. So pretty!
Thank you so much for being transparent not only with your flip profits but also your TH-cam ad revenue. It’s really helpful.
I just want to say how impressed I am with you finding creative ways to earn extra cash to get out of debt and set yourself up financially in life. I had a great career with 8 years of university behind me but even with that success, the cost of living in my city was so high that I was living paycheck to paycheck like most people are - it was house flipping that helped me eventually accumulate enough equity be mortgage free in my 40s. Stick with it!
Way to go!! Your dedication to retiring your SL debt is inspiring!
Oh my goodness! I love your channel and the work you done to each piece.
Feeling drowned in student loan debt, I've been looking for ways to make the extra money needed and you've confirmed that by being resourceful it can be done. You are an inspiration, Thanks for your TH-cam channel.
This is the kind of channel I’ve been looking for. A channel about content I enjoy, as well as someone who is transparent about her analytics with her audience. Definitely subscribed, and look forward to watching more videos!
Glad you’re here! 🤗 Thanks for watching & welcome to the journey!!
This is so inspiring. I admire you so much! Good for you. 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
What a smart and hard working young woman. Great job! Your explanations are straightforward and clear. It makes me think I could try this myself. Will look into Dixie Belle paint products. All the best!
Good to see a young person being so conscientious and doing what is right in regards yo their finances
I'm really glad you are so confident in sticking to the prices you feel that are right. Not doing that has been my downfall. I want to start a school and I need he confidence to trust myself.
Love that you have been working so hard. I've watched you from the beginning . You have inspired me to pay off my car loan. I've been flipping furniture for a long time for part time money . Thanks again I have now hard a new goal
Girl I love your channel!! Excellent job on all your flipping furniture!! You are definitely an inspiration!!
This is how you do it. She didn't wine about here debt., she pulled up her sleeves and got to work. Good Job Kid
Love your journey and i saw the little girl come out of you standing next to your nana, that was cute!
YOU ARE AMAZING!!! This is brilliant and you are doing such beautiful work. I love your transparency.
So proud of you!! You’re doing an amazing job!
You are a very hard worker and also very talented. Congratulations on your new business and much more success to you!
You are such an inspiration!!!So genuine and talented. Thanks for sharing your journey.
Thank you so much for your kindness 😊
Thank you for joining in on the journey with me!
You inspired me to get a couple of those comfy chairs but husband fell in love with them and didn’t let me flip!
I love that you work so hard to pay down your bills. And that you help shape the minds of your students.
I recently watched a video from another gal who used paintable wallpaper on some drawer fronts. The end result looked amazing 🤩. Another thing I wanted to share with you, have you created an LLC? Having all your furniture flipping activities in a business would make all your materials and supplies tax deductible.
I am going to soon be doing some wallpaper on drawers! I cant wait!!
and yep! we’ve got all that squared away!
Love your videos. I've only refinished one piece of furniture, as a Christmas gift a couple of years ago. I don't have any student loans, but you are an inspiration to me. Thanks for sharing!!!
Amazing job girl! You’re killing it!
So proud of you Lauren! You are an inspiration! I can't wait for each video. You put your all into each piece and save a lot of that furniture from going to landfills. So there you go, paying off you loan AND recycling for a cleaner planet!
#5,6,7 were amazing. Nice job!
WoW! Most impressive work!!! Continue flipping and creating more videos. You have learned so much and are willing to share all the good, bad, and ugly (the big spill!). $$$$$$$$$$
