- Thank you to @DixieBellePaint for sponsoring this video and supporting me in my journey to pay off my student loan debt! In this video, I revive this vintage buffet! I decided to re-stain the top and the legs of the buffet using Dixie Belle’s No Pain Gel Stain and then give it a little splash of color with Dixie Belle’s Collard Greens. The earthy look came together so well! I can’t wait for it to go to it’s new home! We’ll update the description when the buffet sells! Thanks for watching!

Furniture Flipping Teacher and her very helpful husband. I love this channel!
😀 Boyfriend, bus yes! very helpful 🤗 Thanks for your support!
I prefer the wood with antiques, but you have a real talent with your flips! :)
Hooks were for teacups the good ones😉
I love to think about the history!
WOW! You did a FANTASTIC job on this! The quality can certainly be seen! The best to you in its selling. God bless
Thanks! Hope it goes soon! 😀
You can still see bleed through with dark colors. It’s just not so visible. I love this Restore concept.
Beautiful, you kept the same vintage feel of the piece. Love it
I've been home sick today binging UA-cam. There are soooo many people out there redoing furniture. I find your videos so easy to watch. I really enjoy your style. Always look forward to your videos!
I'm so glad! Thanks for being here (:
So cool to see you branching out into more "artistic" projects. I'm currently working on a couple of old beat up dressers, and the plan is to use Hampton Olive in the Silk line and keep the top and the top row of drawers the natural wood color since it has some cool oak veneer patterns on them. I'm not sure how it will look in the natural color, so I may end up staining it. So, it was kind of cool seeing you do something that's a similar color/wood palette.
I've been watching your channel since it first popped up in my feed, and it's been fun watching your progression. Shout out to Neiman for the production value on your videos! You can definitely see the difference between when you first started and now. And you can also see that you've gotten more comfortable being in front of the camera.
Thank you for your continued support! We have definitely evolved together in making everything better! We both appreciate your support and kind words of encouragement! Good luck with your upcoming projects!!! Thanks for watching!
I have this exact same buffet and am watching this with great anticipation!
Beautiful transformation! This piece is stunning in that color combination. Great job!!
She did in this video.
I love dixie belle 😊 I'm not a lover of green but this color is gorgeous. Great job!
Amazing transformation! I love that you are willing to try some fun colors! I am also trying to pay off my medical school debt.. thanks so much for documenting your journey to be debt-free!
this is beautiful. my favorite shade of green
What a great piece, out of this world for sure!!
Thank you Rayetta! Glad you enjoyed 😁
I actually own a buffet very similar to the one you just finished. You did a fantastic job and it turned out so beautiful.
Why thank you! 🤗
So glad to see this video! I have my grandmothers buffet and table and chairs. The finish on the buffet has gotten so dark and worn in areas. I have thought about painting it, but I had never thought about making it dark! Great idea! And great job!
Gorgeous! Another great job Lauren!
Thank you!! 😊
I love this. I had a piece like that years ago. Had to get rid of it because of downsizing If I had known it could have been made that beautiful ... I might have figured out how to get in in the new place.
I love watching your videos. I’m learning a lot by viewing them. That buffet piece turned out beautifully. When I seen you open that dark container of green-grey paint I said, “Oh! No.” Though, I’ve never seen you do a bad piece yet. So, once again you were right in your color choice. That green-grey was perfect for this beautiful buffet. You do amazing work & your definitely blessed with an amazing gift of restoring old furniture & bringing them back to life.❤️
Very beautiful! Hope it sells quickly for you!
Australia watching, love your content, awesome work...hooked on your videos ♡
Absolutely gorgeous!! I love Dixie Belle products!!
They are awesome!
Thanks for watching (:
This is the prettiest pc you have done! I LOVE that color!! Great job Lauren!
Big! Mommas budda!! Hehe 😍
This is beautiful! You always do quality work!
thanks very much Joyce 🤗
SOOOOOOOO pretty!
This piece looks so elegant. You did a beautiful job! And I love how you explain everything. You are a great teacher!
So beautiful! I now think I will try Dixie Belle paint & supplies!
You should! It's wonderful! Thanks for watching!
Hey Lauren..so here's what I do with my Dixie belle gel stain applicator...is I Put in a ziplock sandwich bag and put it on freezer Door... because it's oil based it won't freeze or dry out so long as you keep in zippy and when done in freezer on door....I take it out about 1 hour before use just so it warms up. .but it's never freezed on me and it always works perfectly... hope this is helpful too...stay blessed 🤗
I want to do one of these too. I know I'll get my hands on one sooner or later, but I know I'll end up keeping it. Love that green! Now I'm going to have to order it...so many beautiful colors, and I want them all. This turned out beautifully!
Thank you! Yes! The green is definitely pretty! Highly recommend DB! Thanks for watching!
Didn’t think I would like the green but it really turned out well
This is a beautiful piece. You make it look so easy. Thank you so much for all the great tips
Gorgeous piece! Assuming it sold already, but if not, try putting it against a light wall. It's hard to see how beautiful it is against that darker wall. The color doesn't pop against it.
This is an awesome Flip sweetie! And people will notice your work. Good luck on the sale of this piece too!😊
You did an awesome job, I hope to do this with some old stuff I have maybe to sell too.
Beautiful love love love that hardware! Great job
So many great things about this video! Im not normally a fan of that green, but pairing it with the stain and hint of dark wax made it look so cozy and natural! Congrats on the progress you are making with your business. It has kinda flipped to furniture flipping being your main job and teaching is what you do on the side! Keep up the great work!
Yes, i thought the same thing until i saw it finished and it's fabulous
What a beautiful job! You are little fairy
I absolutely love this one.
Girl get you some eye protection 😉. I didn't realize how much gets on our face till I used them. I got some dewalt ones that are awesome. You did so good on this!!!
Great color! I did one of these that was in pretty bad shape and used a very dark grey. I replaced the top with a piece of salvaged marble (side of the road find) and converted it all to a bathroom vanity. Somrvto keep in mind is you ever have one with that is damaged.
Beautiful! My favorite flip so far!
Wow, thank you!
Thank you for offering larger sizes for your t-shirts! I just bought 2
Yay! Thank you! There was a miscommunication with our web developer but we got it all solved! Thanks for your support!
Beautiful piece!!!!
Excellent job-your piece looks beautiful. I have a piece that I won and want to try this. How did you learn and where? How long have you been doing this? You do a great job.
That's great! I started this flipping journey late last summer. And I really gathered a lot of information from fellow creators on YT and a good amount from my dad as well (:
Thanks for watching!
What a lovely piece, I would have bought it if I didn’t live in the UK!
This came out beautiful!
Staging was amazing... not sold on the color personally but you did an awesome job.
Beautifully done! 😍🥰
I watched this last night. It’s beautiful! I love watching you. As a person with a disability looking for a flexible work schedule income, you are a big inspiration for me, to do this myself. What did it sell for?
Wow girl! Totally awesome! It is absolutely gorgeous!
Thanks, Patti!
Wow. It's very elegant. You did an excellent job. I bet you will sell it immediately.
I hope so! We are asking a substantial amount more for this piece but keeping fingers crossed (:
Thanks for watching!
@@FurnitureFlippingTeacher Maybe this one could be the beginning of a high end line. It's ok if it takes the best stuff a bit longer to sell.
I love the color you chose! Great job!
Thank you!
I love the buffet!!!
Wow, it came out stunning!
Thank you! 😊
Gorgeous!
this is just gorgeous!!
Gotta luv her! 😁😁 great peice one of my fav colours!!!
Is the surf prep available in Australia does anybody have it?
Thanks
Wow well done, a GEM
stunning!!!!
Brilliant I love your work
Gorgeous ‼️💯
You really out did yourself this time! It’s stunning❤️
Thank you!!!!
Hi from Florida live to see how this is done
Thanks for watching!!
Teachers shouldn't have student loan debt 💯 If our government prioritized teachers according to their true value, you could be spending that money on a hard earned vacay! Bless all the teachers 🙏👍
Really good teachers are rare.
@@tamivega6225 what does "some" teachers being lazy have to do with them being underpaid? An ADN nurse makes 2x ( or more) than a teacher that has a more advanced degree. Nurses deserve that high pay even though there are some lazy/crappy ones. Teachers deserve the same.
@@Deangirl86 What a strange idea. Why should poor teachers be protected? It is the children that suffer. Should we, for the children's sake, require competence? Neither nurses nor teachers are angels.
Teachers, nurses and other types of careers should not have to be saddled with decades of student debt.
Congratulations!!! I’ll try Dixie paint too! Any advice for ikea drawers? And tables? What primer I’ll be needing.
Slick Stick.
@@tracienielson7183 oh okay! Thank you I’ll try that.
Love it!
Awesome! Me too! Thanks for watching (:
Not sure if you knew but gilding wax is awesome on hardware before you put back on.
Just a question. Did I hear you say you used a water based top coat over an oil based stain on the top of the buffet? It came out so beautiful, I want to make sure I understood correctly what you used. Thanks and you did great choosing those colors & highlights.
Beautiful piece!
Thank you! Cheers!
I think this is my favorite! Love it! Where did you get the paneling you use in your photos? Thanks 😊
Hey that turned out great
I used Murphy's Oil to clean mine but it really didn't make a difference. At least it did get rid of some of the old smell. 😪
Have always been concerned about what to clean it with to make it shine but not damage it.
This is really weird since I just picked up an almost identical piece that I've been working on currently. Unfortunately some previous owners had cut the legs off so I've been having to screw on replacement front legs and add some 2x2 back legs. Planning to stain the top and paint the rest in Behr's barnwood gray color from their 2021 list. Yours looks good in green! Since it's still a little low I'm trying to figure out how to stage it. I was thinking of staging with a record player on top with vinyl storage on both sides with the doors. Any other ideas?
NICE!
Thanks!
Looking for an update: were you able to sell this beautiful buffet?
Does the "butter" you put on the inside of drawers leave oil residue to get on future items stored in them?
I have a dresser that I’ll be refinishing. It has felt drawer liners that smell like “old” perfume. Do you have any tips for getting that smell out?
The felt won’t come out. Completely glued down.
Hi Lauren, did you use walnut or espresso stain!
Gorgeous!! Did it sell??? If so, for full price?
My dumb ass thought you really were about to use collard greens to paint. I clicked like "oh this is a new method I never heard of." smh I need a nap. Looks great!
Please link the firepit behind you on the video! 🔥
$500,??! Darn that’s a lot of work! Looks like minimum $1500 to me!
DID IT SELL AND HOW MUCH? I CANT FIND THAT INFORMATION. ALTHEA
Silly question maybe - but if you are going to do all that sanding. What is the point of the initial clean? Wouldn’t all the dirt be sanded away? Just clean the areas you need to fix with the putty, not ok?
Btw: always love seeing the notification that you have uploaded!
It’s sooo gross/satisfying to see that initial dirty water tho lol
Cleaning first eliminates any potential nastiness blowing around you and your work space while you're sanding. Also gets rid of gunk that
Oops....gets rid of gunk that can make your sandpaper gummy...resulting in having to use more sandpaper than necessary.
@@roxanneklafehn8516 Thank you that makes sense... 😊
I used to think this as well! Reason is actually because you don’t want to rub the dirt and grime into the wood while sanding!
Do you not have to “buff” the wax?
Did this sell?
You hang your tea/coffee cups from those hooks inside the buffet.
Have you sold this yet?
The decorative edging should have been gel stained.....
I wish you had showed a close up of how the repaired buffet top veneer looked after you used the no pain gel stain.
The ugly duckling has become a swan, yet again. This is a gorgeous piece. Great job!
Thanks, Debra! Great metaphor! 🤗
Use painter's tape, doubled onto itself about a third of the length, and stuck to the inside of doors/drawers to give you 'tabs' that will allow you a handle of sorts to reopen same.
Beautiful piece!
Great idea! Thank Linda (:
Lots of TLC on your flipped furniture. 👏👏👏 Lucky buyer.👍👍👍
Great idea!
Or, worst-case scenario, you can always carefully insert a screwdriver into one of the hardware holes and pull the drawer open that way too.
I actually saw this piece in person today and wondered if you were gonna load a video for it lol. I'm like wait I haven't seen that one!
Wait... you were at the restore? That's crazy! Here is the video lol! Thanks for watching.
@@FurnitureFlippingTeacher im dabbling in furniture flipping. Only cause I'm unemployed and bored.
Hahahaha, Neiman: "She makes it all pretty"...love it!
Putting the tape on made my OCD soooo happy. Good job.
Eeek! You guys are celebrities! 😂🙌💪
You are so dedicated and such a hard worker...very meticulous with your work also. Do you ever get any rest?
Haha! I do, I do. Neiman and my parents make sure of it (:
Thanks for watching and taking notice!
I am getting me some Big Mama's Butta 4 real!!!Would it be ok to use the Orange Grove one on the raw wood inside my cedar chest?
Yeah! I have also used Hemp oil from dixie belle! You can check that out in my Lame Cedar chest video!
So I'm obsessed with what you did with this piece. I've watched this particular video several times haha How long did it take you to sand it out? lol
