Hey Guys! Welcome back! In todays’ episode, we are participating in the Dupe Challenge hosted by Clara over at Know Can Do (@know.can.do) where we are charged with the task of recreating an expensive piece of furniture for way less!
For my dupe, I chose a piece from Burke Decor, a high end furnishing company with even higher prices! My piece is a 7 drawer dresser with the lovely price take of $1600(!!!) and I plan on doing it for under $50! Watch the full video to see if I can do it!
As usual, stay flippin!
