Flipping a Bedroom Set w/ Home Depot Behr Chalk Paint | FB Marketplace Flip |

[@arlettedumais5776]

My favorite part of your videos is doing the cost/profit numbers and sharing your selling experience with each piece. You are the most transparent furniture flipper on KZbin. Love it!

[@bonitawood947]

Isn't she though Arlette? That is what has drawn me to her page! She is amazing!!!

[@yami6880]

[@trixie9777]

Same with me!

[@bonitawood947]

I'm just curious why she has 18 thumbs down?! Like, how can you NOT love her videos? She is the most transparent furniture flipper I follow and way more relatable. Keep up the good job!!!

[@sandyhoward1661]

I think there are people that watch KZbin videos just to thumbs down people. She is very good and not one reason to have a thumbs down.

[@michellelee5163]

You are a hard worker and I think everyone should be this motivated to pay off their debts! Keep it up girl!

[@leahroby241]

All your hard work is literally paying off! 😊

[@FurnitureFlippingTeacher]

Indeed it is! 😀 Thanks for watching!

[@melindaharrelson3805]

I so look forward to your new episodes! 😁. I must admit that I “hollered” when the chest of drawers fell on you. Lol! Glad you weren’t injured. .... Girl, I am so impressed with all you are doing. GOOD FOR YOU, not only figuring out HOW to do something you had not done before but getting so good at it so quickly AND paying off your student loans to boot! 👍🤗. You are a great example to so many!!!

Have you considered buying a sprayer?

[@BebyMailoa]

I love how you give us proof that someone is buying that set! Some youtubers said they sold a single dresser for 1000+ profit, but never gave us proof.

[@annodnostaw9971]

Fantastic job. Like night and day. I love that color. Ms Lauren you are so adorable. I do hope you are okay. That was scary when the dresser fell on you. Better that the dresser crushed the plastic container because it can be replaced, you can't be replaced. Take care. You are such a hard worker. I want to come over and help you out. This video brings back so many great memories. I worked at The Home Depot for almost 10 yrs in the paint dept. I loved it. I learned so much working there. I used to take home so much free paint. OOPs! Paint is what it was called way back when. Great choice on the color of the HD Behr Chalk Paint. It's a good paint. I love the fluidity and coverage of it. Annie Sloan is still my favorite but I have a few cans of the Behr chalk paint. The wax is of good quality as well. Great idea on the two-sided bucket. I use dawn dish soap for cleaning before painting. Dawn is the best degreaser and a bottle goes a long way because it's concentrated. Use quart paint cans to lift your pieces off the ground. Place a damp paper towel in the baggy with your brush and roller and you can keep it like that for days. Once you finish paying off your school loan, you need to invest in a new workshop.

[@pookiehoney]

Always take it apart top to bottom and put it back together bottom up. I freaked out like I was there I was so worried if your head was okay. Take care sweetheart, you're doing so well your parents must be so proud of you I know I would be.

[@vickicarol1733]

I am a 75 year old Grandma and I would be happy to add you to my granddaughters. You are meeting your obligation to pay back your student loan instead of asking others to do it. You will be successful in every endeavor you undertake.

[@quail106]

Or expecting the government to forgive the loan! I was a teacher, so I know how hard you work all day. Proud of you!

[@gayleleier8115]

Blooper of the year. That was great - glad you left it in.

[@lisalanham9780]

Love that water bucket ideal! I believe I'll borrow that, thank you.

[@Artsygoons]

My fav is Behr marquis. It is so thick, but not chalky. I told my husband to make sure I quit trying new stuff because I am always disappointed since I love that one so much. And those little sample containers are awesome for getting a bunch of different colors when I craft.

[@taranunnery7201]

Omgosh I hope your ok. I wanted to jump thru tv to grab the dresser lol glad you weren't alone!

[@SophieYurr]

Praying you are ok!!! Thank you for being humble & keeping the video in with the piece that fell. A teachable moment for all of us 💚🙏🏽💚🙏🏽💚! I adore your videos!!!

[@trixie9777]

Yes! It shows her genuineness as a human being that things happen & it’s not all perfect as so much on KZbin & social media portrays. This is why I enjoy her channel so much.

[@Leisure3389]

Proud of you Lauren! Addicted to your channel. Trying to convince my wife we need to do this and put toward daughters college account.

[@deborahwisz8130]

I am so happy to watch your lessons on furniture flipping, I am also so glad you are obviously making extra on you tube each monthly installment payments and your paint and supplies you get too! Great job creating a side hustle with your husband that I am POSITIVE will double your income as a teacher this year if you keep adding sponsors, and followers on You tube. Well done!

[@laureneide5295]

I love how you explain why you do certain things (like using paper towel to dry before sanding). It’s so helpful for learning thank you!

[@taylorlee.artistry5526]

Love your transparency! I’m on the debt free journey as well and you’ve inspired me to try flipping furniture too!

[@kellyanne7225]

These are my favorite pieces thus far that I’ve seen. Wow! 😍 The black hardware with that beautiful, earthly paint color was so rich and classy!

[@pathfinderstravelmagazine2903]

Such inspiration. I won't do it, but it makes me smile to see young people like yourself hustling with goals. Lol.

[@mariacullati2371]

You're a great teacher. I didn't know that round sponge even existed and I never would have thought to top coat hardware. I want to freshen my Grandmothers bedroom set and Im not afraid now. Thank you dear girl

[@sharonromer6606]

Wow...that was a lot of work...the buyers got a real deal❣

[@tamiperkins-trickett2794]

Im binge watching ur videos. So many great tips and tricks. im glad u are ok. It is absolutely beautiful.

[@alentrevor]

Well done it looked great not surprised it sold so quick you choose the right colour

[@dianaflegal4495]

Beautiful job! So glad your made a larger profit. Your an inspiration to so many!

I’m not exactly sure how I came across your channel but I can’t stop watching these lol you’re adorable I love your positive and mellow energy ❤️

You inspire me, I’m painting my art room walls today

[@FurnitureFlippingTeacher]

Yay! Have fun!! Thanks for watching!

[@shelleyborn7523]

I'm so glad to hear that someone else doesn't like waxing!! I watch a lot of flippers and always think to myself, "you make it look so easy!" Then I try it and I fail lol. I should submit a video to "Nailed it". I'm trying Fusion Mineral paint on my next project..has a top coat built in :) This set looks so modern..nice choice on the color

[@kristenh6093]

Loved when your man was like OMG and ran over, glad you didn't hurt yourself 🥰 I am going to flip my childhood dresser for my son after Spring Break. Love how easy you make it look.

[@dianethompson9525]

It is a lot of work-you deserve what ever profit you make! Do people ever recognize you and up the price of their furniture? Where are you as far as paying off your student loan? Do you have a lot to go? Once you get student loan all paid, then what are you going to work for? Wow! Thy got those cheap! They looked beautiful! I bet you could have gotten $800 or $900 for them!! What a lot of work!

[@rethamoore4282]

I really love the way you share information and your techniques. I want to see you do something in pink, please.

[@sweetgrannybuns2774]

Wow! It turned out amazing. Great job & you sold it in record time. So, nice.

[@carmentrevino4704]

That was great, I'm so, so happy for you. Great profit, you worked hard for it. Happy Trails baby girl.👍👍❤👵

[@MrBababuwi]

I like the idea of using a sponge for top coat. Smart!

[@nepculer3306]

As my appreciation, I did not skip the add and watched the full video. Keep up the good work!

[@patgardner3212]

The profits that you make on your sales are amazing!!! If you keep this up after your student loan is paid, you will be quite wealthy! I wish my 30 year old daughter was like you...

[@joycemorgan1602]

I love the color and my favorite of all things you have done. Really classy.. you have such a good eye.

[@ronicalawrence1336]

Absolutely beautiful! I didn't think the black hardware would look good but I loved it!

[@maryjflanagan1922]

I love that color and think it would be a very good choice for painting my brown, wood paneling in my bedroom and some nightstands. Thanks for sharing!

[@marywiklander-williams6493]

Lucky you to find a set with such cool hardware. The Sepia colour is lovely and stylish.

[@sandy-sagerabbitvintage2681]

This is a great site! Not only enjoying the process of transforming the furniture but I really like that you are sharing your sales info. Love knowing how much cost/profit you get and what sells. Very encouraging! Thanks

[@pommeblossom]

So so lucky Neiman was there to pick the dresser up off of you lol! I always work alone. I’m glad you’re okay. You did such a lovely job on this set as always!

[@FurnitureFlippingTeacher]

Haha his editing skill tricked you. He really wasn’t that close. He was inside in the kitchen but heard me yell and came running 😆 Thanks for watching!

[@pommeblossom]

@@FurnitureFlippingTeacher lol oh no!!! You had to hold it up with your head for a little while then?! Good thing the drawer that flew out didn’t fall apart as well! Maybe one day you can show your listings on marketplace compared to others in your area. I’m surprised they sell so fast, because in my area (right outside NYC) things can be slow and don’t go for much $!

[@deborahmatatall]

I’m just delighted with your progress! I’m enjoying your attitude and your willingness to try new things with your business. I’m so glad you’ve moved into doing color on your painted pieces! Color does sell! What a terrific ending to your video - great sale and beautiful job.💖

[@tapia69at]

Awesome Job ! It looks beautiful and I'm glad it sold right away 👍

[@kristyjones7657]

Wow,,, that was a lot of hard work, but you make it seems so easy!! It really looked beautiful & I’m so happy for you that it sold so quickly!! I can’t wait to watch the next video!!🎉🎉🎉🎉

[@LavenderDaisies]

The set looked beautiful. I am always impressed by your teaching. You do a fantastic job. Keep it up.

[@22Piroko]

A tip for your spray can (if you didn’t already do this off camera) when you are finished turn the can upside down and spray the nozzle til the spray comes out clear- it cleans the nozzle so the paint won’t block it.

[@cindysidwell443]

Always!

[@jacquelyn6799]

Never knew this! Thanks!

[@catherinehawkins2587]

It works

[@linasayedelahl125]

I'm in love with the new paint color and awesome choice of black for the hardware. They go beautifully together 😍😍😍

[@Flusenmonster]

I am so happy for you getting the desired price after that paint marathon! Well done! Usually I am not so into nude colors but this one is pretty. Could imagine the color for my kitchen cupboards.

[@cindysidwell443]

Planning on doing my older builders oak cabinets in muted mid-tone aqua, I was thinking ivory, lightly distressed & maybe a polycrilic top coat but maybe I'll consider this color on top door fronts

[@Flusenmonster]

@@cindysidwell443 you just described my ideal color-combo for my kitchen :D

[@marleangreene6117]

I set the corners of all my furniture on old gallon paint cans it really helps to paint the bottom on the piece better when its not setting on the floor, i really like that color it turned out beautiful

[@mdmclane]

I chose to watch your video because I just got through painting my old dresser with Behr chalk paint (for the very first time) and wanted to find a wax alternative finish that wouldn’t leave a high shine finish. I can’t wait to finish my project! Thanks for the informative tutorial! I’m going to try the blue sponge and sponge brush to apply the top coat finish.

I noticed that other successful you tubers ask their viewers to hit the like button at least once in their videos. It could help you get more likes. It sounds dumb and might be awkward at first but it does work.

I love the texture that roller leaves, I used that on my bed, a small sampler version that cost $2, but I brushed on pains and went over it with the tiny roller. Beautiful result.

[@TheHallbjorn]

I've used that Behr chalk paint and keep in mind that they can color-match anything you want in their chalk paint--not just the ones in their chalk brochure. Thinking of having them color-match some Dixie Belle paints I have that are running low.

[@smorris9138]

I'm glad you mentioned that about the color-matching, because a HD associate told me the paint machine would not accept Sherwin Williams paint colors.

Beautiful job, beautiful color.

[@sharonpaul912]

Great idea on the 2-compartment bucket! I love the color you chose, it’s also great to see someone on YT use a paint that’s more easily accessible! I think a vintage gold/brass color on the hardware would’ve looked great with that beige.

[@cindysidwell443]

That would depend on colors of other hardware in the home I believe

This was a somewhat unusual furniture set that turned out very attractive. You did a great job on it! Congrats on the quick and profitable sale.

[@debraneria4242]

I love love love using those blue sponge applicators.

I painted a dark brown chest with the Behr Chalk paint in Fossil Gray. Used 3 coats of Zissner primer. The hardware was antique bronze so I used the Behr Dark wax. The wax did change the gray to a slightly greenish tint. I painted the huge bun feet last without the primer because I was sick of painting after 3 coats of primer and 2 of chalk paint. Color didn't bleed through and matched the dresser. Glad you didn't try the wax!
