Hello I’ve been an artist for over 30 years. I have my own business as well and I just want to congratulate you on your endeavors and especially for your honesty. I absolutely love every piece of furniture you’ve done. Thank you for sharing your artistic knowledge and the other side of business with all of us. Oh and I love your tattoos and your personality, ignore those ignorant comments.

Hear! Hear! Angie, you have so much to offer to those that are willing to watch and listen, to even be bothered by the whiners. I personally can't stand when people put paint on good wood. But of the dozen or so projects I've seen you do start to finish, I have zero complaints about your decisions. And even if I did have a complaint, I'd keep it to myself. What you do with your property is up to you. I'm just glad you are sharing your knowledge and talent.

If they don't like your channel or what you do then they should look elsewhere...geez.....They might feel more powerful saying those things online but to me they are cowards and bullies. I'm here watching so I can learn and keep watching you because I love what you do. Keep it up.

I appreciate you take on difficult pieces with little margin (such as the smoke dresser) and show us on RU-vid. It was a beautiful flip and very useful to the hobbyists that may e.g. inherit or just unknowingly pick up a piece. Hopefully RU-vid will (eventually) give you profit on pieces like that.

If you like the piece, purchase it. If you don't, move along. Keep up the great work. 😁

Pick up that broken side table and practice repairing wood splits, patching veneer, refitting a missing drawer into a shelf or whatever. Learning is fun!

Started watching different RU-vid channels because I've recently had the itch to get back into redoing/refinishing myself of late...as you know there are lots of channels out there...yours quickly became my ⭐ not only because of the quality of your work, but much more...from your production quality, personality, philosophy, educational value, the list goes on and on...but mostly (and especially after this particular video) just you!!! I hope your parents are as proud of you!!! Keep doing what your doing...you are an awesome example to young girls/women everywhere to NEVER let anyone in any circumstance, make you feel bad for what you do and who you are, and what you believe in. Thank you so much for inspiring me... Looking forward to your next video.

Thank you for your insights. I’ve been refinishing furniture for years (strictly for myself)!and have been thinking about turning it into a business. My biggest concern is dealing with the buyers, such as payment, and a safe place for transaction. I live near a major metropolitan city, but closer to the “bad side of town”, so I’m not willing to make deliveries and don’t want strangers coming to my home. It’s still something that I’m researching.

I’ve been binge watching your videos and I’ve learnt a great deal and recognize some of my own mistakes in furniture refinishing. The knowledge and experience you share is outstanding. You’ve obviously done your homework and have no problem thinking outside the box and willing to try new things. Unfortunate those who aren’t willing to do the same will quickly judge others who do. “Time Period” pieces that people are in love with, it’s a “romantic love” and are blinded by this perception and not really seeing the furniture as it is. (Too much Hollywood movies influences). Omg, people judging your tattoos have come to the wrong RU-vid channel. If they can’t see beyond your tattoos and your creative talent. Definitely not happy people, no matter what’s in front of them, constantly looking for faults. Keep on what you’re doing. This channel has been my go to for knowledge and inspiration💝🌟 Thank you for being so humble and being YOU😍🙏

Thank you again, for all your hard work and advice. I totally get the friends asking you to do a peice of furniture for them and when you tell them a price they look shocked and discussed that you would charge them that for a little childs desk. I had to go step by step and explain to her I would do it but I needed payment first. She was wanting to only pay 50.00 I said that doesn't even cover 2hours work little the product to paint the piece and fix the little desk. She didn't even clean the desk to start with but I totally get the friends wanting things done for nothing it pisses me right off and I'm just starting out too I'm not totally new at it but for making money at it I am. I've taken on learning how to re upholstered French provincial chairs it's not fun let me just say tying springs the stripping the piece was easy putting it back together well I'm learning like you say was it worth doing? But im learning something new and I too only have the basics in the tools I would love to have the Surfprep sander too but its not in the budget. Keep up the great job at least you can talk in front of the camera 📷 👏

I looked into an online course like this from someone I met in a furniture group on FB…and let me tell ya….they want $950 for this class and it’s not this comprehensive. I’m not kidding. They say, “there’s no value in free”. However, I have found this absolutely INVALUABLE to my business and I am beyond grateful. Keep allowing your heart to lead you.

Thanks Angie for sharing such valuable information for free. I found letters "B" and "C" were the most useful & practical business advice for furniture restorers who want to make a living at this. For hobbyists, topics "G" "J" and "K" taken together will keep them grounded in reality, i.e., just b/c you have a bucket of DB paint, a Zibra brush and a Ryobi Table Saw doesn't mean you can render a piece of furniture that anybody else would ever want to own - it takes a lot of practice, and as you have shown us, some fair amount of talent! From a business perspective I'm sure you must have considered other options to monetize this transfer of business knowledge. Regardless, I'm going to buy you a cup of tea (you're my first ever recipient!)

I have only done a few simple refinishing jobs in my lifetime and don't plan to do it as a job (you DO make it look easy, but it is exhausting) but I have learned so much from your videos which improves my work around home. Especially informative for me was why I would sometimes get swirl marks in my sanding--I hated them so much and sanded them out by hand or painted the piece instead! I DO sometimes press too hard, have usually used too low a grit no matter what the job (80), and moved my sander too fast. I've learned so much besides this from your interesting, as well as entertaining, videos. You also impress your audience with your work ethic & positivity. We get the feeling that you enjoy what you do, even as you treat your projects with respect and seriousness! Thank you for sharing your expertise.

Just practice, keep learning and multi tasking. These are all so true and refreshing to hear. I started practicing and learning on pieces I would get for free…the experience and what I learned while making mistakes have gotten me to the place I am today. Mistakes are frustrating but in a way they are also priceless as they have made me so much better! The difference between a beginner and someone more advanced is knowing how to fix mistakes when they happen and of course avoid repeating them in the future. I learn something new every time I do something. As far as multi tasking goes, this is something I agree with you on and need to get better at when I have the space.

Hey Angie, that was an extremely informative video from the business aspect of flipping furniture. So on point, and it applies to so many different small businesses and endeavors. Many sections of info stood out to me, and while I'm not looking to get into the business, I found them so interesting over all. I couldn't agree with you more about people needing to take on the responsibility of researching and proactively learning as much as possible about anything that interests them, rather than simply contacting someone to ask for a step by step outline. I've learned to do things through watching zillions of youtube videos, (building furniture, gardening, making beautiful things from cement, decorating cookies, etc etc) and it's a matter of layering and cataloging different bits of knowledge until you've accumulated enough background to get started. Your own experience teaches you tips and tricks as well, and quite frankly, a lot of time and work goes into gathering a depth of knowledge about anything, and it can almost be offensive for someone to assume or expect that you could take all that you've learned and simply write it out for them. It's kind of like, I did the work to get where I am, and you need to do the same... hopefully my videos will assist you with that. After all, that's why your videos are viewable. "Watch what I do, listen to my explanations along the way, then ask (if need be) about something specific in that video." Anyway, I'm so terribly sorry that you experienced bullying while growing up. There are few things more cruel that children (peers) can do to each other, and I can't imagine what's happened in their own homes to cause them to choose to purposely spend their time hurting someone else. I was blessed with raising two boys who thought nothing of telling a bully, "Not today, my friend. Find something better to do and leave _______ alone." Again, Angie, great video! You really have something that works for you, and it's a joy to watch you create in every one of your videos!

As others have already said, your videos are an joy to watch and incredibly helpful, and thank you so much for sharing them. I’ve loved every single one. Aside from the interest of seeing the actual work, your voice and video presentation are so soothing and pleasant. Your finished pieces are totally gorgeous - I would be overjoyed to have any of them in my home (but alas, I am in the UK!) And please keep ignoring the ignorant haters. You (and your tattoos) are fabulous. :-)

EXCELLENT Advice - how does the saying go...fences make good neighbors. Same idea contractual boundaries are the only way to protect yourself against people's shi**y or crazy behavior! PS - I am a social worker/counselor and Someone's hateful; mean; snarky remarks is NEVER about you- It is ALWAYS about their pain and self-hatred. You keep doing what you do!

So happy you chose Just Practice First for J! I have been inspired by you to try my hand, so I picked a pine side table that was left behind by a previous tenant at my business, they had painted it black (with wall paint). Since I don't really care about the piece, I figure if I mess it up, no great loss! I have several pieces that are stepping up in quality and complexity, so I have made a "learning path" for myself! Thank you for all the amazing info you share! You are so talented as an artist (and the furniture you restore is definitely art!).

Thank you for sharing your knowledge and creativity! I love old furniture too. A long time ago I did some refinishing… when paint was a lazy persons choice lol. Today I love the new modern paint/stain combo look and as I enter retirement I am setting up to update and refinish several pieces collected over the years. Thank you so very much for the inspiration to get back to doing something I loved when I was younger. And your work is really really nice!

Awesome video, even 2 years later! Thank you Angie, my wife and I just found your channel and we love watching your videos. So well done, great voice and videography. So much detail, thank you for taking the time. I think making videos takes as much time as working on the piece your shooting. Take care.

Even if I had the time and the space for custom work, no thank you to the headache of trying to please other people. Thanks again for watching Tom and I can only imagine how frustrating it is dealing with paint matching.

I love your open nature and honesty. I can tell from watching similar videos from other refinishers, you are more professional and put more love and effort into your work. Those who can't see it don't deserve your recognition...you'll never change those who don't get it. Let your hard work speak for itself and be an unspoken success to your business.

I have only recently found your channel because I am upgrading my bedroom on a budget and wanted something unusual and different that wouldn't break the bank! I bought 2 bedside tables for £5 (don't know what that is in Canadian dollars!) They are 70's cheap and cheerful factory pieces so not the end of the world if I mess up! All this rambling is really just to say I love all your videos and furniture! This video in particular even tho its not aimed at me really as I'm not planning on starting a business still had so much useful information! So thank you for taking the time to make it! I'm going to watch part 2 in the morning! Can't wait! Xx

Angie, As I was listening to your commentary I was thinking about why I watch your videos immediately! Your voice is pleasant, calming and just overall not annoying. Your furniture transformations are breathtaking and I mean that! I’m learning a lot and appreciate you offering apprenticeship. Thanks for clarifying mid century modern. That is a pet peeve of mine. I see ads all the time with mislabeled furniture. You are truly inspiring.

Hey Angie, great video! K was my favorite. Keep learning is so true! I've been refinishing furniture for about 40 years. I just started painting furniture about 2 years ago. I don't think I already know everything because I don't. I do lots of research and I'm learning, every piece is better than the last one. Oh, btw I love your tattoos! Have a great day!!!

So much great information in this video. I'm about to retire and am thinking of this as a hobby. It doesn't replace years of experienced leaned the hard way, but it certainly lays out the potholes to avoid. I run a small youtube channel and I don't think folks have any idea how much work goes into creating every video. I really enjoy the low-key style of your videos. They are so easy to watch even when I'm stressed after a day at work. Thanks!

OMG no WAY i could pick just ONE letter!!! Angie, you are the most selfless person on YT. I was more than happy learning from ur regular content, but this video went way beyond what most people will generally share about their profession! They either don't want more competition, or just dont want to put the extra effort in. Lol. I am just starting to get serious again about making furniture rehab my full time profession (I started back in 2014 wfter repainting a few pcs for my home, but i HAD TO work full time back then and I quickly got overwhelmed) and getting all this gold in one video is truly priceless to me! So thank you so very much for sharing with us in less than an hour, what took u years to learn! 🥰
