For every furniture flipper who’s ever stared at a project and thought,
“What if I mess it up?”
this one’s for you.
When Doubt Creeps In
I still remember standing in my basement, staring at that old baby dresser with stenciled teddy bears.
It had been relegated to the basement a few years back to hold my old patterns and stencils.
I was too attached to get rid of it, but sad to see something we'd used for years in the nursery sit gathering dust. It was full of memories just like the pieces we flip, except this was personal.
I had the desire, the vision… but absolutely no confidence.
I bought lots of cans of spray paint - because that's what someone told me they used to update their end tables.
I had no idea where to start - but I had DH haul it upstairs anyway - I was going to do this.
I didn't prep - had no idea I needed to. I just wiped it down, took out the drawers and got started on my front lawn.
My mind was full of questions: What if I ruin it? What if I spend all this money to redo it and it looks ridiculous?
It took a LOT more cans of spray paint than I had anticipated.
That moment — spray paint in hand, heart full of hesitation - is where The Flip Forward Series began.
The Real Lesson Behind Every Flip
Over the years, I’ve learned that flipping furniture isn’t really about the paint or the tools.
It’s about trusting yourself.
It’s about seeing something old and worn-out and believing you can make it new again - not just the piece, but maybe a little part of yourself too.
Every flip is a chance to practice courage, creativity, and even grace.
And every time you finish a piece, you’re not just changing furniture - you’re building confidence.
That’s why I created The Flip Forward Series.
What the Series Is All About
I wanted to create something that would walk you through that transformation — step by step — the same way I had to learn it myself.
The Flip Forward Series is a free, 3-part video experience that will help you:
- See opportunity in every old piece (even the ones that look like lost causes).
- Push through self-doubt and the “messy middle” where most flippers give up.
- Develop confidence that shows in your work, your mindset, and your results.
Each video builds on the last — moving you from hesitation to confidence, from “I hope this works” to “I’ve got this.”
I also added a few gems in each video that may answer some questions for you.
Because I Know How You Feel
If you’ve ever scrolled through Facebook Marketplace wondering which piece to buy…
or stared at your latest project feeling stuck halfway through…
or felt like maybe you’re just not cut out for this…
You’re not alone.
I’ve been there. So have hundreds of flippers I’ve taught over the years.
But here’s the truth:
You already have what it takes — you just need someone to remind you how to see it.
That’s exactly what The Flip Forward Series will do.

A Final Word of Encouragement 
Flipping furniture has taught me more about patience, perseverance, and faith than I ever expected.
Every time you rescue a piece that others have given up on, you’re practicing the art of restoration - the same kind of transformation that happens inside us when we keep showing up and trusting the process.
So don’t quit. Don’t doubt.
Take that brave step… and flip forward with me.
