I don't mind the music. Love that you are adding in the financial side. I like the split screens. Great editing

Awesome, thank you!

Glad it was helpful!

Love this piece. Dark blue with wood accents is one of my faves! So excited for your success!

[@FurnitureFlippingTeacher]

Thank you so much!

[@SongsbyCharleneApril]

Very cool! I did furniture flipping for a couple years! Then got pregnant and stopped. It is a physically demanding job with burn out. But flipping pieces on the side (casually) is not too difficult. I would even suggest it to older folks as long as you don’t suffer from any joint/bone issues. It can be a hobby that earns a bit of income❤

[@rivermason]

I have learned so much from you! I am so confident that I can do this! I am a retired kindergarten teacher ❤ Arkansas

[@Freddybender123]

Great tips lady!!..I’m getting ready to paint my grandpas dresser when it warms up!..I need to invest in a prep sander too cool!!..and learning about the bondo from you gives me the confidence to tackle that..my hubby worked with bondo on his 67 mustang not wood bondo.. I was so excited to tell hubby about the wood bondo!..I’ve learned a lot by watching your channel..much respect for you and neiman!

[@FurnitureFlippingTeacher]

thanks! hope you get to some pieces soon! this is the all purpose bondo so could even be the same he used! they do have a wood filler one as well 😊

I got 4 mcm chairs that a person put out to be thrown away. I redid them (several times) and they are still going strong 25 years later. This type of furniture is usually very sturdy (as well as trendy) and can withstand a lot of wear and tear.

[@lkndear]

I would have paid double for it to stay close to natural stain😢 While the end result was nice, I wish you did some more restoration style flips!

[@FurnitureFlippingTeacher]

thanks for the input! that’s just not my style but still love keeping some wood when possible! just think, I still saved it from the landfill 😊

[@mializzim]

But you didn't buy it, she did. It's hers to do as she wants until someone buys it, Karen.

[@FurnitureFlippingTeacher]

Let’s be nice now!

[@FurnitureFlippingTeacher]

@lkndear if you’re willing to pay double though… you should check out our IG page @fournirfurnitureco and check out our inventory and when you find something I come across that you like let’s get something commissioned for ya 🙌🏻✨

[@kathyl5610]

This piece turned out, absolutely beautiful! I love the combination of the dark navy blue and the wood tone. Blue is my favorite color so I am a little prejudiced there. But it is so pretty, great job. Your customer will be very happy. Take care, stay safe.

[@FurnitureFlippingTeacher]

thanks, Kathy! appreciate your support!

[@kaferrat]

That shade of blue with the stain was a great combo.

Your videos are the most useful and practical guides on the net IMO so thank you bc I want to start doing this and I feel if I watch your videos I can learn from you. Where do you sell?

When you do not take off your hourly rate off the gross amount along with your supplies, it does not reflect the true net profit. If you would take off your hourly rate times the actual hours you put into it your profit is not very much at all. You might want to disclose that because if you were paying employees to do the same thing you are doing you would have to either jack up your prices or have a much smaller profit. In other words you are working for free.

@@FurnitureFlippingTeacher I just really value my time spent not working, so when I personally try to guage whether something would be "worth it" to make money I like to guesstimate the hours spent. That's just personal preference though.

How did you decide when and what tools to invest in? Did you start by buying things like the Surf Prep or your spray gun because you knew they would help you make money? Or did you start doing everything by hand and put your profits into tool purchases?

i definitely started investing in them cause I knew they would help make my projects more efficient thus helping up my profits each month! great question!

when you are calculating profits are you considering a wage for yourself? it would seem like a good reflection of actual "profit" if you don't calculate your hours

Not sure why there’s complaints on the music. It’s quiet enough to where you can still hear what she’s saying while also filling in that weird silence in between steps. I do love how this piece turned out, this combo never misses.

I’m curious what factors you include in “cost”. Do you factor in your time? Also, it’s important to acknowledge the potential cost to your health this kind of work can have, with frequent exposure to chemicals. I’m happy to see you wear a ventilator for sanding, but the chemicals are equally hazardous, so ventilation is very important. Keep in mind that chemical exposure is more of a concern for the female body, due to our sensitive hormonal system. Please take precautions.
