Tailor – The Vintage Sewing Table

November 2, 2019

Tailor is another roadside find my brother brought to me.  Unfortunately, I lost the “before” pics so I found a photo on google that looks pretty close to what I started with. The lid served as a work area when sewing, the opening in the top is where a sewing machine used to be.  My … More Tailor – The Vintage Sewing Table

Ringo – The Mid-Mod Chest

October 14, 2019

Ringo is a cute little chest of drawers that a friend of mine picked up at a yard sale for me this Spring.  He’s not a solid wood dresser, just a cheaper version of a mid-mod dresser made of laminated particleboard, but so cute!  He has that 60’s vibe for sure!  I thought he would … More Ringo – The Mid-Mod Chest

Bob-O. The Oak Hall Tree

September 30, 2019

Bob-O, named after his former owner, is solid oak, well-built piece of furniture.  This hall tree belonged to a co-worker’s dad who passed away and in the process of clearing out his home, she came across this piece and thought I might want to work some magic on the old guy! Bob-O was a big … More Bob-O. The Oak Hall Tree

Paula’s Farmhouse Desk

September 12, 2019

I picked this desk up from a friend of mine that told me if I didn’t want it she was going to haul it out to her burn pile! 😲   I couldn’t bear the thought!  As you can see it did need some work! I have a love-hate obsession for this type of project.  … More Paula’s Farmhouse Desk

Tropical Jewelry Armoire

August 27, 2019

Tim, my brother, and part-time picker spied this jewelry armoire that had been set out for trash pickup by one of his neighbors.  This is a really nice one and must have cost a pretty penny when it was new.  It actually had all the knobs on it but I almost forgot to take a … More Tropical Jewelry Armoire

Repurposed Vintage Door

August 11, 2019

I’ve wanted an antique door for a long time so when I was browsing Craigslist for furniture and saw this one listed for $10 I snapped it right up! I pictured it with a design transfer on the top panel and I found one by Redesign with Prima called Fresh Flowers that I just loved!  … More Repurposed Vintage Door

Jesse – The Ranch Oak Dresser

July 4, 2019

This Brandt Co. Ranch Oak chest of drawers is part of a set of furniture that has been in my family for years.  I recently refinished the desk and chair that matched this dresser, and the set also included a hutch.  I used the hutch on top of the dresser in my home office, pictured below … More Jesse – The Ranch Oak Dresser

Emma – The Farmhouse Cupboard

June 4, 2019

  Emma is a unique, handmade vintage cupboard.  Whoever built this cupboard was ahead of his time by using reclaimed wood on most of this piece.  I thought it was the perfect candidate for a farmhouse look. After some minor repairs, hole patching, sanding, and a thorough cleaning, the interior was ready for two coats … More Emma – The Farmhouse Cupboard

Lucky – The Potting Bench

May 3, 2019

  Bring a little of the outdoors in with this vintage boho style potting bench.  It would be a great addition to any potting shed, back porch or sunroom! I wanted to break out of my boring neutral paint color trend and try a bright color on this piece.  It was a light shade of … More Lucky – The Potting Bench

Dakota – The Ranch Oak Desk & Chair

April 24, 2019

  This solid oak desk and chair are well made and in excellent condition.  This set, along with a matching chest of drawers and hutch, has been in my family for many years as a hand-me-down from my Great Aunt.  I’ve been using it as my computer desk until I recently refinished another desk to … More Dakota – The Ranch Oak Desk & Chair

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!
