Welcome to Furniture Fables! Have you ever experienced the dreaded "Flipper's Stick"? This version of writer's block for furniture re-designers and flippers can strike at any time. Come along with me as I struggle with my own case of Flipper's Stick while trying to repair and makeover a simple Free MCM Coffee Table! When my first design idea goes all kinds of wrong, I find myself without ideas or inspiration...until fate steps in, and I receive the help I need from a chance encounter with a local artist...
Skills and techniques used: cleaning, sanding, taping, priming, painting, designing, re-designing, staining, gluing, sealing.

    I grew up in Santa Monica during the 1970s surf culture and saw immediately the surfboard vibe when you got over the " Stick" 😉 With the blob of paint accident, this fable became a suspense thriller! 😳 Thankfully the fable's heroine came to the rescue to give this creative tale a happy ending 😀

    I purchased a kitchen table from marketplace. The owner had started to paint it. When I remove the paint from the top, I saw that she had blown through the veneer that I hadn't known was there. 🙄 my daughter wants the top to be kept natural but with this problem, I knew that I would have to cover the problem in some way. I have been considering painting parts of the top with a stencil but I've been feeling hesitant. You've now given me the courage to use paint & stain together to create a unique design. I'm grateful & I believe my daughter will be too!! Continue your day knowing that your video share definitely made a difference❤ thank you so much ❤

    Just match the veneer and cut out the bit where it was sanded through or just redo the entire top in a similar veneer…. They sell rolls at Home Depot or Lowe’s…

    Congratulations on several levels: overcoming your "flipper stick," admitting a design snafu when you see one, coming up with a winning alternative, and selling a vexing piece at a profit. Frankly, while I neither liked the original table nor its well done transformation (as you said, it was always an acquired taste), I am impressed by your positive attitude, your professionalism, and your impressive eye for good design. Thank you for sharing your work.

    Since I always use same, very distinctive, style in my work and same colors of white, gold, and mint green, I am very rarely stuck. If I am stuck, I spend some time looking at ancient and antique classic designs, which correlate most to my style. French and English furniture and architecture usually are the most helpful ones :) You have won and sold your work, that is what matters, congratulations to you and respect for not giving up! ♥

    My inspiration has always to just let a time go by and something comes past my edge of eye and I am on it. This applies to whole houses and to necklaces. I figure if my preschoolers and primary grade kids could design noodle necklaces or food coloring wooden beads for Mom ,then Miss Nancy could do her own necklaces . The houses always just took time before that teaching life and it was often lack of money that made me creative to pull up some way to create a treasure. Thank you for letting us in on your treasure making time.

    The table you created far exceeds the original table. This table was not like some of your past projects that started with a fairly good quality item (even though ugly and damaged). However, the proportions and curves of this table were really nice (the designer was better than the manufacturer). Love the design and colors, and as a weaver, I really appreciate a good gradient. Leaving the base as is made sense since it’s pretty and seems higher quality than the top. Can’t weave right now as we’re moving within a few months so I enjoy watching your creativity! If we lived near each other, I’d commission you to create an interesting and mid-century-adjacent coffee table for our new home. But alas (I’m picking up your narration style), we’re on opposite coasts.

    Bleeding tape lines can be eliminated... Paint over your tape edges with the background colour and let it dry enough to paint over. It will fill the spaces with that colour and make the edges very sharp. 😉 But you are using good quality tape though and it looks perfect! So lovely.

    This piece of furniture probably actually cost you money since you ended up buying the art from the person whose work inspired you, but hopefully you recoup any loss in youtube views! lol. Definitely see the challenge of the oval table now! From your description of her work I was expecting you to blend varying shades of the original green so the table went from deepest green to pale green seamlessly (I know there is a name for that), but love the pinks added to it. Thanks for sharing how to handle spilled paint! Very helpful. Love the sheen the protective coat gives even though it is "flat". Kudos to your willing helper!
