A $60 FURNITURE FLIP | RAW WOOD PAINT WASH FURNITURE MAKEOVER

[@wendyrosson27]

That French prov. Furniture is so ornate and gawdy that plain raw look is perfect for it. It stands on its OWN. Great work.

[@Somewhereintime22]

In my opinion this is the best piece you’ve ever done…and that’s a high bar. Gorgeous!

[@lisajackson4784]

Hands down best video for a natural wood finish. Very thorough and good closeups Neiman! You actually show the whole process with great explanations.

[@lisajackson4784]

I prefer not to use chemicals in any way. I was diagnosed with breast cancer and had chemo and then radiation. My hair has grown back and I don't use any chemicals on it. I have been trying to phase all chemicals out of my life.

Are you feeling better.

[@shellylemons]

Me too, diagnosed in June last year, finished surgery, chemo and radiation before Christmas. Seeing my oncologist tomorrow, having trouble with Letrozole side effects and need to try something else.

I have a whole bedroom set of French provincial thomasville furniture that we inherited when we got married 20 years ago. We’ve considered getting rid of it to buy something more modern for years, but nothing in our price range will match the quality. After seeing what you’ve done here, I think I may put in some elbow grease and copy what you’ve done. Absolutely beautiful

[@us3990]

I highly recommend getting yourself a Dremel or Foredom tool (or similar) for sanding detailed areas like this. There are literally hundreds of attachments available for getting into all those curves and nooks, look at jeweler's attachments as well as woodworking. They'll do a better job than hand sanding could ever do, and save you hours of time!

[@ShEmBecca]

Anytime you say nice things about the quality of Thomasville Furniture, it makes my day. My dad, who’s 91, worked there 34 years many years ago. The factory where he worked wasn’t called Thomasville all those yeas. But always high quality furniture. You’re great at what you do. Thanks for sharing

[@pinkfireflys]

Hi There! Sorry to bother you but I am trying to refinish nightstands in this style and it won’t strip. Do you know what kind of sealant was used back in the 60s?

[@ShEmBecca]

@@pinkfireflys I just asked my dad and he has no idea. Sorry I couldn’t help.

[@pinkfireflys]

@@ShEmBecca that’s ok I appreciate you so much!

[@Nonnie-417]

One of my favorites you’ve ever done! So stunning!

[@kathyl5610]

Wow, this piece is gorgeous. Whoever buys this this piece gets an additional bonus because this is your first stamped and signed piece. Added value. Great job. Take care, stay safe.

[@adorablerepurposals6745]

It turned out so gorgeous!!! Great work!!!

[@colleenhager4507]

Neiman was right that needed to be held north of $1,000. It was beautiful!!❤❤❤

[@victrola2007]

$58 for Thomasville,! Where the flip do you live?! ‼🙊👀End result is EXQUISITE! In the NE this could fetch $2K and be considered a bargain. $650 is laughable, but that's geography for you. 🤷🏻‍♀️ Beautiful! So refreshing not to see another paint over wood change. It's fresh, beautiful and a breath of fresh air! Perfect for Provance look. Aaaah! 🥰😍‼

[@pnhnut]

This is probably one of my favorite flips...it is truly timeless! Well done.

[@FurnitureFlippingTeacher]

thank you!

[@aninasalerno873]

It’s absolutely beautiful!! Maybe my favorite ever!

[@victorialawrence4782]

Oh Lauren, keep it! You love French Provincial, treat yourself, you deserve it!

[@TinaLouise528]

No way! That dresser is better than the original. I wish you’d received more. I’ll pray for that. ❤

[@alicep3286]

Lauren, another awesome job. French Provincial is not one of my favorites but you make these dressers look so good, I have changed my mind. Neiman, of all the people I watch on KZbin, you are the best "camera Man" there is.

[@eileenball39]

I just love this, one of your very best! I am glad your grandmother recognizes what an artist you are.

[@wendyb171]

The natural wood is so beautiful! Fantastic job!

[@mlm7598]

I love Thomasville furniture and I was cringing and holding my breath but it turned out gorgeous!!! Love it. I think it is even prettier and up to date for our current trends. Beautiful!!!

[@kristinataddei8138]

No pain....no gain.....love the natural grain of the wood showing....you did a remarkable job, Lauren!!!.... beautiful piece for sure!!!....there is something cathartic about sanding/scraping.....very satisfying when all said and done....the music choice was sooo much better than what most young you tubers choose(thanks Neiman)!!!....

[@s.p.1536]

Top favorite thus far. Restoring the wood was brilliant. that very lucky buyer! I think you deserved a lot more reward for your work, but it will come with more beauties like this one. Such a stunning restoration . Congratulations ...another milestone for you .

[@jcmhanel1]

I LOVE your results!!! Look at that hardware pop…❤️❤️❤️ Yes! north of $1000!

[@roserahe1515]

Wish I had watched this video before I started stripping a antique solid wood high credenza with desk that I purchased for $30. That Scraper would have been easier than sanding forever! Also would have preferred to do the paint wash instead of the chalk paint. Love what you did. Also misting with the paint wash works well with the chalk paint. Your videos have helped me soo much! Thanks!😊

[@lorithrower2467]

LOVE LOVE LOVE this piece. I too love French Provincial and watching you do them is a joy.

[@minniemouse1662]

I was so excited to see this flip! I just purchased a set of side tables in the same style and I wanted to redo them in the same way. Now I know what they will look like!!!!

[@lorrieguinn8221]

I have been doing more and more pieces in this same type of finish and they sell like crazy. Yours is absolutely gorgeous. I am not usually a fan of French provincial but I would buy this piece in a heartbeat. Great job!

[@destinyidentitywithdrannac6114]

you have outdone yourselves on this one....Yes Neiman NORTH OF A THOUSAND!

[@ApBarr345]

Absolutely beautiful! Love the stamp idea from your Nana

[@poodlegirl55]

I think this is my favorite piece you have ever done. I love that you left the dark color in the grooves. And that stamp is cool!!!

[@kelseybanuelos9909]

Get this woman a tv show

[@freedomat50]

Gorgeous!!! They make some great scraper tools that are more detailed that can get into those tiny detailed areas if you find yourself using a scraper more often

[@Seaseajune]

Beautiful! I so enjoy the teacher in you! ❤️ From a recently retired K-1 teacher. You are inspiring me...I have the time now!

[@Streamsofwater67]

Wow! You kept the character of the piece yet gave it a contemporary look. Stunning

[@zullo3529]

This piece is absolute perfection! You did a fantastic job with great attention to detail. It is worth a lot more than $650. It’s fabulous!! Thanks Lauren 🪑🪑💅🥰

[@karenberger1274]

Lauren, you did a magnificent job! It is stunning! Just enough added color for interest, and it is classy! You really enhanced the beauty of that dresser! I love it!

Hands down favorite flip I've watched on your channel. Definitely somewhere on my top 5 favorite video watched on anyone's channel!! You picked the perfect finish for that dresser to make it as gorgeous as it could possibly be. Amazing job on the flip, the details, the commentating, the paint wash, hardware, video editing...everything! I love watching you two thriving as a couple and growing your business together! You're both killin it!

[@vickinoeske1154]

Love French Provincial and this dresser is gorgeous. Beautiful job. Really like the jazz music.

[@Camie.in.Philly]

OMG, thank you so much. I don't have this exact dresser but something very similar that I am about to strip down and paint. My dresser has been handed down and is over 80 years old with quite a few layers of paint and stain. I would like to paint it an off-white. What can I do that without having to remove what looks like about six layers? I have the matching nightstands, and I don't think I have the energy for all that scraping. Any advice will be well-received.

[@annagia153]

Beautiful!! 🤩 Love this so much!! Lauren you do amazing work🌟

[@emmahardesty4330]

You're right; it's stunning. Great job.

[@brunomclovin8413]

That piece is gorgeous! It’s my favorite one you have done .

[@Melo-Study]

This dresser turned out so elegantly, classically beautiful. Your design choices, plus the high-quality wood and craftsmanship of the original dresser, plus the $$ value of your time & labor, made it worth a price much higher than $1000. Your buyer got a massive steal.

[@renelorenzi2193]

The dresser is beautiful!

[@brendalorenz7091]

Wow, I love it! Wish I could of got this one!!! Beautiful job!!! I wish I could do this to my kitchen cabinets!!!☺☺

[@michelerussell9044]

Have you tried using a drummel to do the detail sanding? That may help save your hands. Love how this turned out.

[@dot2dal]

I agree- a dremel can really help out!

thank you!

[@Dingle1234]

This is gorgeous! Has the look of raw natural wood. I have a French Provincial set and I was looking it over to decide which parts of it to paint and which to stain, and was torn because the grain is beautiful all over.

[@pcsd3104]

Another beautiful job Lauren! Love how it turned out.

[@ltuerk]

Beautiful refresh that compliments the graceful lines of this piece! Many thanks for sharing the details. Love your use of paint wash to cancel out yellow or orange tones. I may have missed it, but would love a lingering side by side pan of two drawer fronts - one raw wood, one completed with paint wash. For me that would be v instructive. Love your work!

[@LilyBecca]

I've never been a fan of paint wash, but you are changing my mind. This is gorgeous!

[@gailcullinan]

Stunning Lauren, I absolutely love it. It was a big job but so worth it. Well done. Hi Nieman

[@brenmanock]

Thank you for your deft demo and instructions. I learn so much. I just did a wash on a solid wood orangy side table and it looks great from afar but I only have a dremel sander. I forgot to wet surface so that's probably why it's a bit splotchy. Thanks

[@justsodumb]

Love it. Turned out fabulous as always.

[@gailrhodes2859]

This piece is beautiful!! I love how you so carefully tell us all the details!! I have refinished lots of furniture pieces for myself or family and love the technique of the white wash. I so wish when I was refinishing I had known or thought of that! Great job and I’m with Neiman I would have held out for a thousand and no less than than $800.00 but obviously you know what you are doing

[@FurnitureFlippingTeacher]

thanks, Gail!

[@FurnitureFlippingTeacher]

[@l4real808]

Absolutely north of $1,000. Frickin beautiful. It was just timing that you didn't get that price... but it was definitely worth it. Best flip to date! Love natural wood grain showing thru.

[@pattio.656]

It is Gorgeous! You need to get a set of different shaped scraper blades will attach to your scraper handle. They would have come in handy for all those little grooves on the dresser. You’ll Love them‼️

I'm not usually a fan of the wood alone, mostly due to really disliking the look of the yellow tones. But this one is really nice. I think this is my favourite wood look furniture. Keeping the patina on the hardware was definately the right choice.

[@RevdUp.Art.Fotografer]

Very nice job. The original surface looked like a fake finish to me...at least on my screen. Now the grain looks real. The person that got it, got a deal.
