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

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

Duke – The Rustic Cupboard

January 14, 2019

Duke is a sturdy, solid-wood, primitive storage cupboard.  Duke was another one of my brother’s curbside rescues!  This old cabinet has lived a very hard life and was in desperate need of some TLC. The first step was a thorough cleaning and then filling in some of the numerous holes with wood putty.  When the … More Duke – The Rustic Cupboard

Bailey – The Primitive Dry Sink

December 28, 2018

Bailey is a Flipped Her Lid original.  My brother built her for me many years ago from 100% reclaimed wood.  He crafted it himself from a picture I showed him in a magazine.  I had painted it with this drab old dark brown color at the time. 😝  It’s no wonder that it eventually made its … More Bailey – The Primitive Dry Sink

Wilma – The Vintage Side Table

December 8, 2018

  I went to my first estate sale the other day.  In all my years of combing through flea markets, yard sales and antique stores, I had never made it to an estate sale!  Luckily a family member was having this sale otherwise I might never have known how interesting they are!  And I would … More Wilma – The Vintage Side Table

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!
