There are a lot of people thinking that flipping is "easy". You make it look easy, with your stunning results. However, after looking at lots of youtube channels.... clearly it's NOT just a matter of "paint old furniture and it'll look stunning". There is a lot of SKILL involved - and you clearly have that talent. Well done!! Loving your channel.

Amen to that!! I just started flipping and I'm on my 5th piece.. A lot of trial and error as everything varies so much such as dry times depending where u live, humidity, every piece of furniture is so unique and what works on one piece fails on the other... Flipping although rewarding is by far the hardest thing I've done...

I'm a doctor. Don't know anything about furniture flipping. It's nothing related to my field. I came across your channel once on the creator on the rise section. Since then I've been watching your content. Pleasant background music, little bit about your family, and some furniture flipping making me stick to you channel. BTW Flip no: 4 is my favourite. That warm taupe + wooden brown color combination looks great.

I was a little pessimistic about the turnout of the one at 49:40 -57:20 because originally it was such a gorgeous wood but omg she completely nailed it by adding a stunning color in the perfect tone and finish. I was speechless. She has great taste. And Yes, and flip four might be my favorite as well!

I love this. I am remodeling my downstairs bathroom. Removing the sink vanity. It includes a piece that goes from the sink vanity across to the toilet. I want a Japanese, spa like look. The vanity needs to measure 29 L×20w. I can't find anything worth the cost or size in stores. I just want to build it or use a dresser. UPDATE: I found a potential cabinet that used to be a radio. Trying to find the perfect sink that fits the top that fits the dimension, without being too tall or big. I took the radio and wheels off to make it shorter. It has the piece on the decorative bottom that I may have to cut off like you do. Please help @DIY Wife! 😢😭. You are so amazing & talented!!

You go girly! Never saw a woman work so professionally with a saw or sprayer and your furniture is totally awesome.

As a fellow specialty painter I appreciate and applaud the attention to detail. Even if no one else ever notices...pride is taken in 'doing it right.'

Your custom wood base is what takes your projects to another level of fabulous 🤩

I’m dying laughing at the husband doing his primer techniques...The Phantom just killed me. Ya’ll a bunch of corkers! Thanks for the giggles! 💗

Just came across his channel. Andrea’s work is incredibly beautiful. It warms my heart to see these young people saving this from landfill sites. If I were 30 years younger I’d love to do this. Love them all.

2 was my favorite as well

I have been entertaining the idea of furniture flipping to make extra money, and work out my creative muscles and came across this channel and am delighted that I did so. You have a great eye for style and I can tell that you can see the potential in the "before". Power tools have always intimidated me because I am such a klutz. I once got metal shaving in my eyes because I thought using a very powerful power drill was a smart and fast way to put together one of those cheap, cheap computer desks and I was wrong. So wrong. I feel a lot more confident about getting over that PTSD and what safety measures I should take beforehand. And what an inspiration you must be for the little one! Come on super mom!! What a supportive spouse and a lovely fam overall. 😃

the cream color 1st with the wood knobs and base. Beautiful work

I have already watched each video individually and I’m sitting here watching them all again because you are delightful to watch and learn. Each piece is a favorite in some form or another. But I gotta say that Sherwin Williams dark green inspired me to do something with that color. I’ve already made two trips to SW looking at that color. You are so inspirational on each piece you do. I can’t say enough about my admiration for your talent and vision.

Yes I do agree with that dark green I think she will end up being like a hair colorist though and will create a color that is just unique to her designs in future as well don’t you?

My favorite was the first one. The white paint with the scroll drawer detail, looked like lace. When you added the wood base and knobs, you hit it out of the park. One of my all time favorites ever👍

I was choked, because you paint the chest of mahony 🥰!!!

Your wife is very talented, love her work and has given me ideas for some of my old tired furniture. Thanks.

Oh, and thank you so much for actually placing the types of things that you use on the furniture in the videos that we can actually see because it makes it a lot easier when we're buying supplies.

Great work! The most important part is that these well made pieces get a second life and don't end up in the trash. I wish more people would be doing this instead of using the junk furniture they make now!

Love the base she puts on many of her pieces. That seems to be her trade mark. I think all of her pieces are beautiful so I would not be able to pick a favorite at this time.

WOWWWWWWWWWWW, Andrea you did an awesome job, didn't know how much work goes in when flipping furniture. This gave me some good tips using the bondo putty. My favorite were #1, 5, 7, 8 & 10. Your son is adorable, your hubby had me laughing. Thanks so much for sharing :) :) :) Now I know what to do when I redo my bedroom furniture.

The modern one with white lower drawers surprised me the most! The beginning color finish was so radically changed!👍🏻

I’m so excited to see the finished result that I’ve skipped through a lot of the hard work, but I did get to watch the primer. SO FUNNY! Your pieces are beautiful and inspiring, and Andrea is such a hard worker and creative master!

I’m not adventurous when it comes to colour I tend to stick with whites and creams . Seeing all your different coloured creations of art are just stunning !⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️I just Love the navy coloured pieces !! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

This was one of the first videos that popped up on my list one day...I can see why Dean felt the need to catch his remarkable wife transforming furniture as well as the house....you did a fantastic job filming and editing, Dean!!!...love the partial skeleton and your son getting some early practice in, not to mention Dean and his "priming skills".... hilarious!!!...

So beautiful. The first cream colored one with the rattan handles. Stunning!

Flip #4 is my favorite! I have a nice and pretty long dresser (20+ years old; pretty good wood) that I kept but no dressers. They were beyond repair but knew I wanted to transform the dresser to a storage area for my crafts and use as a work station. I am glad I found you and your comedic husband; will see how I can transform the dresser with no drawers……to a soon-to-be work station. Love your work!

Hard to choose but here are my highlights. Love the stretch in number 2 and then the arm around your wife like a school boys slick move. Made me lol. Number 4 is my favorite as the coloring was so warm. Number 1 ran a close second. So not my style but what Andrea did with it made it beautiful.

This is the first time viewing your beautiful designs. I must confess, each piece is unique and my favorite is the off white credenza. Your heart and soul shows in each piece you create!

Love all the projects. Impossible to pick a favourite. Is it hard to let them go after transforming them? They’re all so beautiful! Am loving the channel. So glad it came up in my feed. What you are doing is way better than anything HGTV has ever put out. I hope we get to come along on your adventures for years to come. I think you’re going to find your business explode before you know it. Also, I thought about midway through this video, do you sell the hardware you take off of the pieces? People are always looking for those vintage bits and bobs to either replace on their own pieces or to use for new projects to give that retro feel. They’re not always easy to come by.

What an inspiration you are Andrea! Thank you so much for sharing your expertise with us struggling out here! I almost have worked up enough courage to attempt an "Andrea Base" for the dresser I am currently sanding. Your base just completely elevates every piece of furniture you put it on and can change frump into sleek and modern! Thank you Dean for your great video making skills and your awesome sense of humor! Laughing out loud is such a treat! And the snippets of your son being adorable stick with me long after the video is over!

You've inspired me, thank you for opening my eyes to new ideas! To the husband, get her a mobile workbench lol. All that bending over and sanding on the floor can take a tow on her back and legs, she's a keeper so come on! :-) I highly recommend the Bora Centipede, its portable and you can store it away in a bag when you're all done.

#1 and #5 are my favorites. I love the way you have turned the gaudy 70s vibe into something beautiful for today. I also loved the primer tutorial by Dean on #3...very entertaining! Your overall presentation is superb.

All of them are my favorites!❤❤❤ Found you by mistake but I am creative from birth! I love your professionalism and love for what you do! Beautiful work!!❤❤❤

Hi Andrea and Dean! Shortly after discovering your channel, I watched the video featuring furniture flip #1 and wouldn't you know...I found the nightstand to match the dresser locally in my area to restore. I was sooooo excited! I attempted to give it a dupe. It turned our great! I also liked the black "wavy" transformation and was able to give it a dupe for my own personal enjoyment. Looking forward to future videos....thanks for posting.

#1 is gorgeous! It makes me want to be on the lookout for an old piece such as that with all the beautiful detailing. It turned out perfectly in your choice of ever-so-slightly creamy white.

You are the Ace of Base! 😄👍 It's amazing how different and better the furniture is after you create your custom bases. Love your channel.

Definitely the first one is my favorite. Dramatic transformation. Beautiful creamy white color. LOVE, LOVE, LOVE it. You had great vision on this one.

I'm fairly certain you are a very talented person. Your husband has priming talent as well.

Flip 1 is my favorite. I love all your work and have been watching you since your debut. Can't wait to see the bathroom remodels!

She is amazing! Such an inspiration! You have a gift! There were so many here I love! Can't choose one! But the white with the wicker pulls definitely stands out in my mind.

You are definitely one hard working woman! I'm loving the black pieces and the sage green piece you did. Putting those bottom pieces on take these pieces to a different level. Beautiful work.

I can appreciate the doctors comment however I simply like the fact that you enjoy what you do and it keeps me tuned in!

Wow I would be proud to own any of these pieces. Especially the first one (white) Omgoodness how beautiful I’m obsessed 😍 Can’t wait to see your bathroom transformation.

I’m sorry but they are all my favorite! Your wife has such a beautiful and unique soul! Thanks for sharing her work with us all! 😘👌🏽

I love how you change the base causing it to look like a total different style.

OMG! I have the exact dresser in Flip #5. It was my mom's and had 2 mirrors that attached to the back. My parents had the whole set with the night stand, headboard and the hi-boy, which was my dad's. I just started looking thru videos today trying to figure out what to do with mom's dresser which is exactly like the one you rehabbed. How blessed am I to have found this video! Thank you. I am so inspired.

I hope you are signing all your work. A little branding iron with your name or initials would add a nice touch for the next owner as you will become famous as a true artisan! So impressed with your skills. Congratulations!

Great work, very professional. Although seeing some of the beautiful wood getting completely covered by paint was hurting at times. I liked most of them esp 3, 4 and 10. No 7 should be a crime ;)

Every one of those dressers were absolutely a work of art Andrea you are an artist whether you know it or not. Hubby and baby boy add such a personal touch to your videos I enjoyed watching this video very much from Casselberry Florida near Orlando

Cream with beige handles, very nice. AND #9 sage with brass, exceptional! Love the classic, vintage lines and curves.

God has blessed you in a big way. Thank you for blessing us in return❤

That dresser is from the 1970s. My parents had one just like it. The head board of their bed had the same design and as a little girl my parents gave my brother and me chores to do. My job was to dust off and pledge the dresser. That design is not easy to clean but its really nice. They don't make dressers like that anymore. I give you a lot of credit for taking that hard task of making it look brand new and different. GREAT JOB!!!

Amazing work, I enjoy every video!! The colors you choose are beautiful and the additional legs /base you put on some some of the dressers add so much character .

This was just so amazing to watch you transform these credenzas with that modern base, your paint colors and hardware! You have inspired me to give it a go. There’s a certain piece for my home I just can’t find in any furniture store or thrift shop-now I think I can make it myself! Thank you! Very, very good filming too.

I love how you put your pieces on a custom base...it really changes the look of the pieces entirely. I am trying my hand at furniture up grades from things people give me and your ideas give me inspiration! Thanks for sharing 🙏

Love all these flips such a talented lady no wonder Hubby wants to brag about her skills she is awesome. Thanks for sharing

So much inspiration! I've been binge watching your videos all week!

I can't pick a favorite because each piece was an inspiration...thank you for filming these renovation artworks for us...brilliant choices...color choices...and hardware...I just love that we can artfully transform objects and furniture to such great effect.

Especially love the flips that you changed the base legs and kept the wood colour. They're all very elegant but no. 1's my favourite.

I admire the effort that goes into restoring these pieces, but I'd never hide such gorgeous wood grain under paint. Obviously this is personal taste...

I’ve been flipping furniture for 8 years now but took a break to travel with my husband this year. I’m so glad I found your channel cause I really got catch up in all the new trends.

But the way you softened it and did the wood base made it sing! Even I, who loathes anything from the 70’s, would have loved it! I’m glad you saw the potential!

Every piece is unique. It's hard for me to choose!

Cant help myself from looking at this over and over again. She has a golden touch.

You are an incredible talent. You amaze me making all you do effortless. Making it look like a piece of cake. Her insight and ideas are unbelievable. Her results are on point and classy. She is one of a kind as she can re-do furniture and remodel rooms building things as she goes.

Each flip was gorgeous! Flip #1 Looks so modern. The creamy color along with the rattan knobs go perfect together! How to choose??? I loved them all, but I'm partial to sage green, so I especially loved flip #6. Love your great sense of style. The DIY base that you put on enhanced each one of them. You are very talented. Great to see that talent is not wasted! I believe that your 'little supervisor' will grow into this trade.

Watching you work is so inspiring. I adore your little inspector lol . Hunting for great pieces has been the hard part for me...but I LOVE THE FINAL RESULTS ya know. It all pays off in the end 😌

Amazing, the beautiful furniture makeovers showcased were nothing short of transformative. The skilled craftsmanship and creative vision on display in these flips truly inspire anyone looking to breathe new life into old furniture pieces. This video is a must-watch for DIY enthusiasts and interior design enthusiasts alike.

It was a dresser marathon! Absolutely love the bases you make to update the dressers. Generally I like brighter colors, not so neutral in my spaces. However, of the choices, the #4 was my favorite. 👍🏻💜

Everything you do is just amazing!!! Love watching you create these beautiful pieces!!!

The attention to detail is immaculate. Bravo

Thank you for giving back. I love you gave back to the couple that housed your husband when he slept on their couch.

You guys have given me so much inspiration with flipping furniture! I love your videos and style. You guys have lots of fun and enjoy what you do! :)

You're Furniture makeovers are stunning and it is satisfying to watch you work. I aspire to diy pieces that look as beautiful for my own home. Retired at 56 years of age. Numbers 9 & 1, are my favorites, in that order. Beautiful work, thank you for sharing.

Those type dressers were popular in Houston in the 70s-90s. Pretty, well made. You did great with them.

Woow, beautiful and inspiring work! A pleasure to watch your videos, I feel finally motivated to paint my old kitchen chairs thanks to you! I also must admit, for piece #7 I really hoped the beautiful intricate wooden panels won't get covered, although a beautiful end result, I think it would have looked amazing if the natural wood could have been seen and not covered.

Lol! Love those priming moves Dean 😂 You both make a great team! Love your videos and your furniture flips❤️❤️

Beautiful beautiful work... just came here to pray that God gives you strength. It doesn't look easy at all but the results...... stunning!!!

Love them all! I think everything ya'll do is "next level"!! \o/

My very favorite was the peach-colored dresser. All of your make-overs are stunning!

At the beginning I thought this piece was beautiful with the gorgeous designs! I envisioned how much greater you could make it. I couldn't believe you went and painted it, twice. Then twice again with you final! With no natural wood looking details left! I couldn't even see the beautiful details with it painted solid off whit.. You made sure that anyone else that wanted to restore a wood detail would have a heck of a time trying to get that paint off.
