Hey Guys! Welcome back to another episode of Missflips! In today’s episode, I am going to be flipping an authentic Drexel piece that I got off of Facebook marketplace for $100. It started off green, and don’t get me wrong, I LOVED the green, however the paint job was a little messy, it didn’t have any primer or top coat and as I was sanding, I uncovered some of the most beautiful mahogany veneer I have ever seen so I decided it was best to keep her natural.

I also used two brand new techniques that I've never used before. One worked out SUPER well and the other, not so much. Make sure to watch the whole thing for the full story!

As usual, stay flippin!
