Antique Cabinet Makeover + AUCTION HAUL \\ Furniture Flip Before and After

  • I know that this antique cabinet makeover looks complicated but thats only because the base (the cabinet) need so much work before I even got to break out the paint. If the cabinet had been cleaned within the past decade and not as beat-up, this project wouldn't have taken nearly as long. It also doesn't help that I am a antique shop owner and kept having to stop to go pickup new antique auction hauls & meet up with Facebook Marketplace buyers. The hand painted detailing can be time consuming but anyone can do it! It looks like diy furniture stencil or a transfer when its done but its not! Its very simple, repetitive and can be done on any piece of furniture to add a little extra character. This was a true trash to treasure furniture makeover. I wanted to say, "I give up!" so many times durning the process BUT the final looks speaks for itself! Next up is a antique settee that will probably be my biggest makeover to date but not before taking my new collection to The Factory Antique Mall for a my new booth reset! Thanks for watching my furniture flip before and after!

    My dad used to restore furniture that was splinters, so it's good to see you stuck in there and got this across the finish line. The decoration inside has a great subtle harmony. Keep doing what you're doing!!!

      @@amandasmercantile I've had several booths through the years (I'm 72), but most recently I spent 7 1/2 years in an antique mall in Pensacola, FL that was damaged by hurricane Sally last Sept.and the owners decided to sell rather than repair. Very recently I got a new booth in a nearby town. I do mostly smalls and small furniture....tables, chairs, stools, etc It's definitely a hobby, but it keeps me out of trouble.
