Girliness Among A Group Of Guys...

A lot of us are asked why we started furniture flippin'.  Well, today's featured flipper started it as a way to add a bit of girliness to her world.  Her world that is filled with BOYS.  Three sons as a matter of fact.

Meet Rebecca of Paint Charming.  She spends all day cleaning teeth as a Dental Hygienist and all evening cleaning up old furniture as a Furniture Flipper.  

Today's piece is a beauty, too!  It was a table bound for an Estate Sale that one of her friends relatives was having.  Her friend regretted not grabbing it before it left for the sale.  She imagined it would make a wonderful gift for her sister.  Luckily for her, Rebecca lived in the town where the Estate Sale was taking place and she was able to nab it and redo it for her. 

Here's the before...


That table was a bit rough from many decades of use.  I think I even see some plaque buildup on it!  (Not really.)  

Rebecca cleaned this little gem up and at her friend's request painted her in Annie Sloan's Aries.  I've long admired that color and have wanted to use it myself, well, this piece has made me think, "What am I waiting for?".

And here is the gorgeous table now...


That color really pops on it.  What a remarkable difference in that table.

Rebecca of Paint Charming is just getting started with her Facebook page and I'd love for all of you to welcome her and give her a "like" today.  Tell her you saw her on Furniture Flippin'.  

She is located in the Kansas City, Kansas area and says that of the furniture she redoes, "Some items will be for sale, and some will be mine, ALL MINE."

Thanks so much Rebecca of Paint Charming for sharing your beautiful furniture flip.  It's one of my favorites!
