Olive Green Dresser Makeover

July 17, 2023 Leave a Comment

This olive green dresser makeover will show you how easy it is to transform an old piece of furniture with all-in-one paint and a sander.

I found this small dresser at my local Restore shop.

If you have been following my projects, you know that I love a small piece of furniture like this. They don’t take up a lot of space but still give you a lot of storage. They add the cute factor wherever you put them as well.

I knew this would be an easy makeover and it would not take long at all.

Steps In This Olive Green Dresser Makeover:

  • Remove hardware (will add new wood knobs).
  • Clean the entire piece well. (Learn how to clean a piece of furniture before painting HERE).
  • Scuff-sand the entire piece. (Learn the difference between scuff-sanding and regular sanding HERE).
  • Prime, paint, and topcoat all with one can! I will use my favorite all-in-one paint for this piece. 
  • Stage it and list it for sale!

I am telling you, this makeover went so fast because there weren’t any repairs. The drawers worked great and we didn’t have to rebuild any part of it.

This paint color was the perfect color for this little piece. It is one of my favorite shades of green.

Once the paint was on, you could really see the beautiful details on this little piece pop. 

The power of paint amazes me every time. 

I am sharing some video of my painting this piece and using some new paintbrushes in the process on my YouTube channel. You can watch it HERE. The paintbrushes are designed in a way so your hands never cramp up when you paint. They are pretty amazing and I was excited to try them out on this piece. 

Do You Want To Make Money Flipping Furniture?

After twenty years of doing this, I am still picking up pieces when I can find them because I love the creative outlet, but I am now coaching other furniture flippers on how to make more money in their business. If you are someone who is looking to start and/or grow a furniture flipping business, I would love to help you. There are ways to make money in your business beyond painting a piece of furniture. Once I learned that, my business flourished. Don’t waste your time trying to figure it out on your own. 

To help other flippers, I created The Furniture Flipping Academy! The academy includes everything you need to start, grow, and/or scale a furniture flipping business. It includes courses, resources, templates, social media planner and guide, a private community, and so much more. It will ensure that you are doing the steps that will lead to success and not wasting your time on things that won’t.

You can find all the information about the Furniture Flipping Academy HERE.

Let’s get your business started and/or moving in the right direction. The Furniture Flipping Academy is for any flipper, from beginner to experienced. If your business is stagnant, there is a reason for that. Let me help you grow it into a flipping career that is profitable and fits the lifestyle you want to live.
