Hey Ya'll! Thanks for joining us for the #100challenge! We came just $1 short of blowing our $100 budget but WOW are we pleased with our flip! Please leave us a like and a comment to let us know you were here!
ngl when I first saw the piece I was a little sad because I love the 80s more than mid century but when you finished it, it looked even more 80s and I LOVE IT. One of the best flips I've seen for ages!

That transformation was really amazing. I hope more people realize we can bring 70s-80s-90s furniture up-to-date and keep it out of the landfill. Great work.

You two make such a lovely couple 😊. I think this is the 1st we’ve heard from him! You can tell him he looks like (a younger & thinner) Hugh Jackman. It’s great that you can work so hard together and towards your goals. Working full time w my hubby (of 30yrs!) would drive me bonkers & vice versa, I think. 😂 Another awesome and stylish furniture flip!

I am SHOCKED that they let a man in one of these vids. I would have put those legs so that the angle would have been flush with the profile and I would have been WRONG, great job! I was like, "dude, move those legs out 6 inches and paint them gold". NOPE! That finish looks more durable than the original, is it? WOW, I am most impressed, not surprised it sold so quickly. Congrats, and I am subscribing now, you could teach me allot.

3 minutes in and you are removing that skirt, and reusing the not bad at all hardware. I like already. Can anybody tell me why clunky, heavy, frumpy furniture was ever a thing? Great piece to redo as well, pressed board with plastic veneer, certainly a "paintable" project.

@@LemonstoLemonadeFurniture It can happen for me like that sometimes, this was just genius. I mentioned to somebody else that I don't LOVE the color, BUT, like black or white, this would fit with most color schemes. It would fit right into MY house! Again another wise move. Too many of these pieces attract too much attention to themselves, like the Barbie Pink monstrosity. Most people WILL consider how it will look with what they already have. Actually 700 is MUCH too low for this, but hey, you made a profit. I would have been tempted to make this ultra high gloss, what do you think? Maybe even like an auto mirror finish?

Hi Sheri- driving around locating great finds, negotiating price, lugging them in and out of the trunk, coffee helps. Scraping off old gum from old dresser drawers, stripping paint, cleaning, sanding and cleaning again...coffee helps. Late night painting sessions, coffee helps. Staging, photo props, lights, camera, action-coffee helps. Selling, negotiating, delivering...coffee helps. 16 hours of editing videos to put together a 12 min furniture flipping video to help others make a side business or a little extra change in their pocket or refresh an old, well loved piece...coffee helps. Getting sweet responses from people who enjoy the free content and ask, since I live too far from you to buy a piece, how else can I support your channel?.....coffee helps. Have a nice day!
