The Ginger Hill Tea Table

September 25, 2020

                          Ginger Hill is a nearby neighborhood where I was out for a run one morning and came upon a yard sale with several small tables for sale.  One of which was this charming antique tea table.  I cut my run short and … More The Ginger Hill Tea Table

Diana – The Two Tier End Table

September 8, 2020

    I have to admit, I’m not a fan of Mid-Century furniture but this end table came with several other pieces of free furniture I got from a friend so I had to at least try to do something with it!  Even though it isn’t something I would want in my own home I … More Diana – The Two Tier End Table

Tom & Anne – Twin end tables

August 18, 2020

  I bought these matching Queen Anne style end tables at a vintage resale store several years ago for $15 each.  They were unfinished at the time so all I had to do was paint them.  At the time, I painted them white but now that I have changed up my decor I decided to … More Tom & Anne – Twin end tables

A Purple Dandelion Headboard

August 5, 2020

My neighbor asked me to paint this headboard for his granddaughter.  His granddaughter’s bedroom walls are purple and she wanted the headboard to be white with purple dandelions.  There wasn’t a lot of room to squeeze any dandelions on the top as it was, so the first thing I did was fill in the decorative … More A Purple Dandelion Headboard

Eloise – A vintage secretary desk

July 15, 2020

       Eloise was quite a project but I had a lot of fun changing up her look! When we loaded her up in the truck to bring her home we had to remove the wood finial on the top to get the tailgate closed.  After I got her home I decided I like … More Eloise – A vintage secretary desk

Sherry – A Vintage Vanity

June 23, 2020

This maple vanity was one of five pieces of furniture I scored when a realtor friend of mine was clearing out a house and offered them to me.  The label on the back shows it was made by Showers Brothers Furniture Co., Bloomington, Indiana.  It was sold and shipped to Connie and Don Ray of … More Sherry – A Vintage Vanity

Penny – The Vintage Dresser

May 24, 2020

I named this one Penny because I found a lucky penny in one of the drawers!  Penny is not an antique but she is vintage, probably circa 1960.  A friend salvaged this dresser for me when someone they knew was getting rid of it.  Normally, I don’t like to take on furniture that has already … More Penny – The Vintage Dresser

Jessie – The Antique Cedar Chest

April 26, 2020

  “You are and you will always be the most beautiful season of my life“ This cedar chest belonged to my Great Aunt Jessie and was handed down to me many years ago upon her passing.  It still has the key that fits in the lock and the original wooden wheels.  I decided a while … More Jessie – The Antique Cedar Chest

Anna – The Chunky Side Table

April 12, 2020

I got this chunky little side table on Marketplace for $10.   I liked how the table was the same on all four sides so there was no backside.  I loved the design on top and was hopeful I could bring it back to life!  As you can see, it had a lot of scratches, burns, … More Anna – The Chunky Side Table

Sammie – The Vintage Cedar Chest

March 29, 2020

Sad Sammie was a freebie from a family member and at first glance, this poor old hope chest looked pretty hopeless!  I love the carved detailed border around the lid but I’m not so fond of the “evil eye” applique on the front. There was a huge gash on the right corner of the lid.  … More Sammie – The Vintage Cedar Chest

contact me at: flippedherlid@gmail.com Hi, I'm Laurie! I've been flipping furniture, re-purposing junk and dabbling in DIY home decor since long before it was cool! I love all things vintage and I'm always searching the flea markets and thrift stores, looking for something I can repurpose or transform! Writing has been a life-long love of mine that inspired me to start blogging a few years ago on my lifestyle blog www.runningdownmydreams.com, where I would occasionally write about DIY or furniture flipping projects. I decided I wanted to have a separate site for those projects and so Flippedherlid.com was born! I hope you enjoy reading about my projects, thanks for stopping by!
