I don't know how the nightstands will go, but the fact you backed that trailer into the driveway NEXT to another car, is amazing. LOLOL And you have inspired me to do a line assembly of some sort...
I have lots of experience with a boat 😆 but this little trailer is even harder because it’s just a huge blind spot
I was thinking the same thing. I love the idea and I’m so jealous that she has a trailer. But was even more impressed when she backed it in. Not being able to maneuver a trailer on my own is why my husband won’t let me buy one. LOL
@@AngieWilliamsDesigns you can totally learn! Everything is just backwards and I try to remember “Slow is smooth, and smooth is fast”
Yay my commenting is back to working. I loved watching part 1 and can’t wait to see part 2. 😊
I wouldn't allow my woman folk to park a trailer. It is manly man work,like hunting baby fur seal or grouting tile. Women should stay in the lane that God allows for them.
I’m impressed you can back that trailer in the driveway. I’m an occupational therapist and I’m trained to notice body mechanics. You squat and lift with your legs consistently, but I’m concerned about the twisting you do with your back when moving the furniture sideways. Please stop that. Step and turn your trunk with your hips/legs as you push / pull the furniture to protect your spine. 😊. You are young and can take it now but over time your spine will accumulate problems. I enjoy your content
Thank you SO MUCH for this information! I actually did have back pain after this week and wasn’t sure what I was doing wrong. Much appreciated information!
I wish someone like you was available back when I was younger! Thank you for being a good person and caring. :)

HONESTLY 😂
I have never had matching nightstands in my entire life, and I like it that way. So enjoying this adventure.
I used to do this but I made chalkboard tables for little kids out of them and put a little chair with each one. I had over 20 or so tables at my house altogether once upon a time!! They all sold!! Prayers your assembly line goes as planned! God bless!! ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
That is awesome! Thank you so much ☺️
I don’t think you understand how invested I am in this series!!
Thank you so much breeya!! ❤
How can anyone not see or understand that!?! It’s incredibly bold!
I do a lot of end tables but I’ve never attempted what you are doing! However, inspiration comes in a lot of forms! Thnx❤
Not sure how I got here but I am hooked 😅 it’s like furniture makeover and a game show all in one video 😂 love it!!
I am having the same experience. She is so inspiring.
Omg yes! This comment is everything 😂 I should have made it into the NightStand Bachelorette
@@janeparker7150thank you so much!
The Pavlovian thrill of seeing wood finish furniture in thrift stores, packaged into a UA-cam channel…! I like a woman who’s not looking for one night stand
A woman whos not looking for a ONE NIGHT STAND!!!🤣😂😭😄😂
You have got me SPITTING out my water!
That was all too clever and this comment deserves more likes! 👍 ❤
I haven’t seen the results yet but I think and hope you change your mind about the ones you wanted black and white. I feel like you should trust your gut with that. Good luck I can’t wait to see the results.
I think you are gonna be shocked at the results!
When I have 2 of different sizes that I want to pair,
I make one a bit more masculine anc the other a bit more feminine. They usually sell really well for me😊
Thanks for sharing! I’m surprised the mismatch ones are selling fast!
@@flippedbyabby Some of us hate matchy matchy. I'd much rather have things that are nice & similar/like they go together than have a bedroom set with pieces that are exactly the same.
@@rachel0982YES you get it! i hate it when all the furniture looks the exact same😅 i much rather have it in a bridesmaid style furniture (same vibes/color but diff dress)
I am definitely invested in this EPIC adventure of yours! I'm here for moral support, too. You got this girl!
Thank you so much!! This was a blast to film!
Ohhhhh, looking forward to the future ones!! I love a good series…it’s like we have just been introduced to characters and we are waiting to discover their true, full potential! 😀❤️ love from Ireland. 🇮🇪
Omgg they are like characters! The Bachelorette for nightstands
Spotted your UF sweatshirt in the beginning - Go Gators! 🧡💙🐊
No driving and filming at the same time. Can’t wait to see what you do!
Lol good point!! It is mounted though so it’s like talking to a friend 😂
Can’t wait to see how this works out. I have a ton of nightstands in my inventory maybe you will inspire me to do them all at once
Yes 🙌 there’s a very clear winner to the color that sells the best too 👀
Oh Lord, I was just watching your video and thought how difficult it must be to manoeuvre (when you were backing into the drive) with a horse box on the back of your truck, and was just pretty impressed at your driving skills when I totally remembered that my driving lesson had been moved to 1 hour from now!!! -- so thanks to your good driving, you just saved me £80! Thank you!
You can do it! Just remember to use your mirrors! My motto is “Slow is smooth and smooth is fast”
Love mismatched furniture made to compliment...
Me too!!
Nightstands are the bane of my existence. Can’t find what I want anywhere.
Ooooo! I'm lusting after your garage! I live in an apartment so the best I have is a large balcony. Better than nothing!
You can still do it! I lived in a single wide trailer when I started. I hand painted in the back bedroom that was like 7x10 ft lol
Now I'm hooked. I need to see them all done.
Yay! Thank you for watching
I AM WITH YOU, HUNNY! You got this! 💜🙏💜
Thank you 🙏
Can't wait to see them all done!! Looking forward to the series!
Yay!! Thank you for watching 😊
Abby, you make everything fun! I can’t wait to see how these turn out! Hurry!!!
Yay, thank you!!! Part 2 will be on Instagram today! It’ll be about a week in between each video here on UA-cam because the editing process is longer!
Brilliant idea for a video and fun challenge for a furniture flipper! Not even half way through and I can’t wait to see how this turns out. Very fun. Jealous of all the thrift stores in your area too!
Thanks so much! 😊 I definitely drove ALL over the place this day 😆
I for one am looking forward to the process!!❤❤
Yay thank you!
This is really creative. Love it! Several of the pairs look well-matched.
Thank you so much! I’m VERY happy with how they turned out!
This is AMAZING!! I can't wait to see how each of these turn out! The dedication is 1000% there 👏🏼
Thank you so much!! Running 🏃 to watch your new video
I bought 2 pieces of furniture this morning for my very first pieces….crossing my fingers! Thanks for the inspiration, no better time to do something than the present.
Yay!! So exciting! You got this 🙌
I thought I was crazy but you beat me. Love your imagination ❤❤❤❤❤❤
So happy to see you doing more videos! ❤
Yay! Thank you! 🙏
This should be interesting and informative to watch! The whole process ! I’m looking forward to it .🎉
Hope you like it! Thank you!
You’re amazing. I’ve only done a handful of nightstands, but never a truckload! And backing into the driveway. Awesome. Love your channel.
Thanks so much!!
Looks like a lot of fun! Cannot wait to see the next videos in this series!
It was! Thank you for watching along!
Oh I really love this video series!! I can’t wait for the next ones! 😊
I'm so glad! Thank you for watching ☺️
I’m excited to see what you will do and subscribing right now!! Your video is inspiring and captivating!! GIRL ! You backed that trailer up like a champ !!
Thank you so much!!! That means the world to me!
@@flippedbyabby❤
I've got deliberate mismatched nightstands/bed side tables. I love them ❤
I've never done an assembly line with soooo many bedside tables but out of my experience, doing several projects together speeds up the process a lot. And the pieces don't have to be of the same type - if I need to prime a coffee table, a dresser and a chair with the same primer, I make sure all of them are ready for the treatment. In this way the process and the cleaning are much faster as you doing it only once. Good luck with the bedside tables! 😉
It definitely makes it so much faster and more efficient! But I learned a few hard lessons along the way 😂
@@flippedbyabby 😉 Can't wait to see part 2
I enjoyed this adventure you are fun to watch enjoy your focus to make money by flipping 18 nightstands😮
Thank you so much!
Can’t wait to see the rest of the series!!
Thank you for watching!!
I had several paint projects to do today. One was a chunky 70’s pine coffee table. Its natural wood that I plastered DIY chalk paint onto sanding much of it off then applying a dark stain over the entire piece. Its gorgeous now. I had to paint a shelf, distress a small side table, paint a frame for a specific painting and paint and distress a very ornate medium sized mirror. All I have to do now is put a finish on 3 of the items and Im done. These pieces are for me and a vacation rental we own. Ive had all of these things sitting in my stash for years. I have a nice shop. Time to start using it to make some money. Small furniture is so hard to come by anymore for a decent price.
Im loving this so so much and know you’re gonna kill it!!! Such a fun and wild ride!
Agreed on the backing! 😅😮 I’ll be watching for the transformational videos on the nightstands too! 😊
I am SO here for this!!! 🙌
Thanks girl!!

Thank you for watching!!
This is going to be a fun and interesting series to watch!

You can always change your mind on what color they are.
I'm so into this, I literally can't put it into words.
Yay!! Glad you’re following along 😊
Love your dog!!
Epic. Ridiculously epic. Love it!
Thank youuu
cant wait to see, good luck❤
This is gonna be great 👍
What a beautiful dog! 😊
Thank you! 😊 she’s an angek
6:26 DUDE! I would SO buy this clock if I could!
I enjoyed seeing all these pieces of furniture and as a carpenter and lover of restioration, I like to spend time working with this model of furniture every day. I am glad that you have chosen a beautiful path ❤
You and me both! Thank you!
5:08 I love that old mirror 🪞
Omg me too!! It was just too expensive at $80 or I would’ve bought it 😂
I can't wait to see how these turn out.
This has been a great series! Youdid so good.
Thanks so much!
I love paint. I looked at your shorts and saw some of the and results. They turned out beautiful
Thank you so much!!
I can't wait for that interview! He seemed like such a cool and interesting person.
Omg he totally is!! I’m so excited
This is going to be fun to watch!
Thank you so much!
The Nightstand Queen of North Florida!!

I ❤ the lamp!
Yes!! Love the vintage lamps 😍
Love your energy👍👍🙋🏽♀
Thank you! 🤗
I’m so invested!!!
❤
Love it! You inspire me My Dad showed me how to use some sanding, craftsmen skills years ago and want to use them some day!
Aww, you're so kind. This is my affiliate link to one of my favorite sanders,
walmrt.us/3Ths1oY
there is more products located on my storefront if you'd like to check it out :) You can do whatever you set your mind to!!
Love the video, I like that 80$ one😂 fun stuff!!!
Thank you 😁
Been following your content on FB and saw this project and subbed over here. Will definitely check out the rest of the series. You do some great work!
Awesome, thank you! Glad you came over here!! 🙌
Love this.I wish this was my predicament.U are soooo lucky.My dream picks and shopping,to do.Give me furniture to paint all day and night.Buy the whole town.
You can do it!
The little face you made after you said you want to fit 6 more was my favorite😂🙌🏼
I’m a menace
Same, 😅
What a fun idea! I’m a new follower and excited to seeing how it goes
Awesome! Thank you!
I’m always finding single night stands and after a few attempts at selling singles that failed… I stopped buying them. I still have two small mismatched ones that I keep holding onto in hopes of finding their mates. I’m looking forward to seeing the rest of the series. I think this is a fun challenge. I’ve also been inspired to try and take these two nightstand I have and try to make them match… maybe. LOL.
I honestly love the mismatched ones! As long as they are a similar style and the same color people love them!
Thank you, I love it ❤️
Thank you!!
A few years ago oversized end tables and coffee tables were popular.
This is great! Love seeing bts and your thought process! The lil spinner was a fun idea to choose finishes, and look forward to seeing which sells best! You got a TON of work ahead! Can’t wait for the next one! 🌸
Thank you so much!! I think I’m gonna use the wheel all the time! I’m so indecisive 🤣
@@flippedbyabby I am too.. maybe I should get one! LOL 😂
I think you should go with your design gut and pitch the spinner! Lol
@@janedrolet2807 i really just got it to make it a fair experiment for the colors!
I saw you loading them up on tik tok and I’m so glad this came up on my recommended!!!!
Yay!!! So glad you’re here! I can’t wait to walk through the process
Jax?! I legit SMASHED that subscribe button. Good luck out there. The Salvation Army next to Big Lots on Merrill gets abused as a dumping ground, always good furniture for free after hours.
So much Fun!❤
Agreed!
Suggestion for the sets that don’t match super well - promote them as “his and hers” night tables clearly setting the expectation that they are supposed to be different.
This is exactly it 🙌 great suggestion
That's cool abbey
Can't wait to see the results ❤
P.S. Mismatched nightstands in my primary bedroom and my two extra bedrooms.😊
Yay! I love the way the mismatch ones turned out 😍
You found some nice Brutalist pieces. It's my second fave after my lifelong love of MCM.
Great job finding all those. I think there are plenty of times people will only need one night stand. If it’s going on a child’s room where the twin bed is against the wall, and only one night stand is needed, you could still sell those mismatched ones well if you make an accent piece out of it.
That’s definitely a good point! I’ve found that sets are in very high demand though so the chances of getting more bang for your buck are there!
2:23 I want it to be ridiculous ….. I want you to be ridiculous ❤😂😂😂 PRICELESS and because of that, I’m a new subscriber ❤️😘🇨🇦
That was the most iconic part of this whole project 🤣 thanks for supporting!
The more nightstands you flip, the more daunting it may become. The effort may not seem worth the final selling price, in the end. It’s a huge task to take on and I wish you luck. 🍀
You're incredible...New watcher here!
Thank you so much!
New subscriber. Interested in how this project is going to turn out. I love painting this style of nightstands. Best sellers in my booth. Painting furniture is my Zen. I painted my first piece in 1975.
Isn’t it so therapeutic?? I love listening to music or a podcast and painting!
So crazy, I found your video in my feed and I also flip furniture and shop those SAME thrift stores! It’s truly a small world! Curious to see how this turns out for ya as I’ve stepped back from it due to it being so time consuming. I like your ambition though and can do spirit! You go girl!
So cool! Thank you so much for following along!
First couple thrift stores you went to, I was like haha those look familiar! And then you went into teen thrift and I was sure!! Restores here are the worst! This is a fun experiment! Excited to see what happens!
The restores are so overpriced here!!! It’s such a bummer. I definitely prefer the small church thrifts like spectrum / teen thrift
Another avenue for you to find furniture are the flea markets around here. I have found some really good Mcm dresser for not much money at them. Also try dumpster diving during end of semester move outs by UF. You can’t even believe the amount of fur tights left behind!
Restore can be more than retail.
Very interesting experiment. Can understand why neutral colors are ideal for bedrooms - they're calming & peaceful. And more grown-up compared to brighter &/or primary colors. Although, as you probably know, adding a touch of black, brown or other darker (or lighter) paint will tone down or mute colors to less jarring shades :)
Yes! It just goes well with everything! I’m a sucker for a bold/moody color though
@@flippedbyabby 😊👍
Very Very Very Very Very good video!
Thanks for the visit :)
There was one nightstand there at that place that I have been looking for that matches my current nightstand MCM
You talked about ordering hardware. I've found some great deals on hardware at ReStores. They are usually in bundles & cost $1 or less a piece. Granted, some are dated, but depending on what you're doing, dated may be needed. I also use handles when making ottoman or regular trays. So it's kind of a win for me regardless. 😁
That is great advice! I’ll have to check it out, because I love some old hardware!
Night stands can be used in any rooms for extra storage. A great way to decorate with storage for a small price.
On staging you could get a piece of foam board and use peel and stick wallpaper as a background. Then just use as a back drop instead of white.
That’s a great idea!! I build a staging wall into my work bench, so I just turn it around and it has painted vertical shiplap on it!
Well, I'm hooked! I just found you and I have liked and scribed. Welcome to my Texas home😊😊😊!
Yay! Thank you!
Lucky you with all the thrift stores in your area
I definitely drove around a lot!
I totally think you should have chosen the colors honestly because there’s a lot to consider like you said at the end and why, but it still made it fun to watch to see and it’s just a challenge within the challenge so to speak lol. Also hi new to your channel 😊
Yes exactly! It honestly made it a fun design challenge
