- In this video, I am making over this commission dining room table and chairs using Rustoleum Chalk Paint and MinWax Stain. Dining chairs are officially my arch enemy when it comes to using a brush to paint them. This set definitely tested my patience! I hope you learned a few things about refinishing a table and chairs! This is a great idea to save some money and flip the dining room table you may have already in your home! Let me know down in the comments about your experiences with similar flips. Thanks for watching!

I like the way you have transitioned into a teaching video on refinishing furniture. I'm learning a lot and I love refinishing furniture. Thank you.
Awesome, thank you! That is what we are truly here to do! Thanks for watching, Julia!
I wanna ask you if I have a good idea or you want to go see a seecanwith you good time with you too dosomethingdo it I And
Oh okay I I wanna ask you if I have a good without a you understand I know I miss your time and Call Good Understand and your love ofproblemGoodjustIproblemcall problem call or calling you l used it Or
Southern Indiana is watching.
Hey hey! 😊☺️
I love to watch you I want to white wash a dining table and chairs that was my mothers it’s over 25 years old it’s an oak table with a pedestal I’m looking so forward to doing this I’ve never done this before but in watching you I believe I have enough information so thank you for sharing what you do because it’s just beautiful.
I think its the Mum in me but when you were working in the dark I was like "aww bless her". Sprayer Lauren, Sprayer, doesn't need to be expensive the air sprayers are fab. Love love love your channel!
I have one! I just haven't pulled it out yet! I am waiting until summer! (: Thanks for watching!
@@FurnitureFlippingTeacher you’re going to love it!
I got a sprayer but not good at it yet. And I won’t use it for the bin shellac because of cleaning
Girlie I would have immediately bought a sprayer before my sander ever touched the first piece of wood. You are one tough cookie! I knew when you first said $450 you were at least $200 to $300 short. Beautiful result.
Yeah... 😅
Another learning lesson lol!
I have a sprayer sitting in my garage but we want to wait till summer to bust it out - trust me when I say I almost pulled out early 😂
Thanks for watching!
Great job! A little hint: I do 2 coats of BIN shellac primer when painting white. That second coat does amazing and will cut down on coats of white. Also I have the store add 65 drops of black to a "gallon" (15 drops to a quart) as the BIN has a yellow cast and the light grey (after adding the black) makes the white paint brighter!
I realized I should have done two coats of primer after I did the first coat of paint! I do actually have some gray primer as well, but I usually use that if I’m gonna go for a darker color. Thanks for watching!
I bet a sprayer would save you so much time. Your a hard working woman! good job.
Oh good! I am soooooo glad your rate is $30-$40/hr!
I hope you record these notes because you’re definitely going to get more dining set commissions.
Please let us know how they like it!
Great video!!
Oh yeah! I've definitely noted the lessons learned 😉
I will. Head over to our IG where I will be posting the video when we deliver. Should be sometime this weekend!
Thanks for dropping in Leslie!
Turned out beautiful.....when I saw your quote, I thought Oh No!! She underpriced herself!!
BIG TIME 😅
Ya live and ya learn right?
Thanks for watching Lindee!
I've been stripping, building and refinishing furniture for over 20 years and wanted to just offer some friendly advise. It's very important to never sand wood to remove a finish in preparation for stain. It's great if you're painting, but sanding, especially with an 80 grit paper scars the wood, especially when applying pressure. This is why your table top came out uneven and with some darker spots. I used to make this same mistake. The best option is to use a furniture stripper, then a 220 or higher paper by hand to prepare the wood without scarring it, without applying pressure. Wipe on poly is my favorite finish, but not ideal for a table, it will wear away with time. To save time you can purchase a stain with a poly in it.
Thanks Tammy for all these tips with your experience. I also use a stripper for the ones I’m going to stain. I only sand after I’ve stripped it. You’ve confirmed what I’ve been doing for a couple years. And def a stain with poly. Much easier
Where are you located I am moving to Miland Michigan and I need my dining table refinished?
When you say stripper are you referring to citristrip?
Thank you for this…
You're most welcome
You have inspired me!! I had a counter-high square dining room table, but our family has outgrown it so I sold it on marketplace and found a regular round table with a leaf on marketplace. I wasn't going to redo it, but after watching this flip as well as a Beyond Paint flip, I am gonna do it!! I've purchased the paint and am waiting for it to come in. On another note, I am a retired teacher of 30 years. Proud of you for finding a way to paying off your student loans and finding a new passion in the process. You go girl!!
I think the people who asked for this took advantage of you. If I had asked for you to do this for me & you said $450, I would have said absolutely too low. What’s with people? They knew this was taking advantage.
PS you did a LOVELY job on this❣️ I should have said that first but I’m disgusted at the people. But you kept a great attitude throughout. You’re a BEAUTIFUL person❣️ I need to learn from you both from technique but more importantly from your attitude. 🙏🏼🥰🙏🏼
I absolutely love how this turned out! You definitely underpriced yourself. I have a set of my own that I am wanting to do exactly like this so thank you for showing me how to do this!!🤍
You can do it! Thanks for watching!
Omg, I love this set. The color of the stain against the white is just gorgeous. ❤
Beautiful! I love how u price your pieces it's fare. People always want something for nothing which blows me. Keep up the awesome work Teach🥰
Just ordered a Surf Prep sander a few weeks ago. Can’t wait until it gets here.
YOU ARE GONNA LOVE LOVE LOVE!! Let me know how it goes on your first project with it 🙌
Best money spent! You'll love it
Just saw this, ABSOLUTELY BEAUTIFUL
You could double your production (higher production, higher profit) if you invested in a paint sprayer. This dining room table set would've been perfect for a paint sprayer.
I was thinking the same thing. It could have been done in half the time.
I am going to be trying out a paint sprayer in the very near future (: Thanks for watching!
@@FurnitureFlippingTeacher can't wait to see what sprayer you try out. DIY Wife seems to have one that does a great job as does Flipping Nataly.
Nice job on the set. I’ve done a few myself & it can be time consuming for those sets. I’d love to see you do another table set with a sprayer. That Shabby Guy uses a couple of different sprayers.
@@FurnitureFlippingTeacher I just did two Barstools for the first time with the Wagner Flexio sprayer. It was a Godsend not to have to hand paint all those spindle areas! I used it with the Kilz, the paint and I watched a video where you can use DB Gator Hide top coat too (might start spraying ALL my top coats at the very least...way faster and nice finish!)
Looks great! You sure are patient! I am going to try flipping my first chair this weekend. You are so motivating and inspiring! Thanks for all the great videos.
It must be so difficult to figure out how long everything will take to do!! Sixteen hours sounds like a lot but it really isn't much for an 8-piece set that includes big pieces. It was exciting to hear you mention summer, I can't wait to see what you have in store for us when school is out, but please also remember to take time to rest & relax! It's so easy to overwork & get burned out when we work for ourselves.
It really is one of the hardest parts! But I know as I continue flipping and learning it will get easier and easier! It really wasn't too bad either as we split it up over multiple days. We are so so excited for Summer and to just have a ton of fun and flipping adventures with you and the rest of FFT Community!
As long as I get my pizza and Ben & Jerry's weekly - we will be alright 😄
Love your work!! I want to fresh up some old furniture, but didn't want to look cheap. Thanks for listing materials used and explaining it so well.
Thanks for the info I will be redoing my dining set soin
Great job, Lauren! I love those paint pyramids!! And the surf sander is fab! And reminding us to "prep, prep, prep.." is so valuable!
Keep up the good work!
This is gorgeous as it is…seriously. I love the natural wood look
An amazing transformation and explaining why you're doing what you're doing is helpful Well done!
Awesome job Lauren. I enjoy watching your videos and learning about new products. You are an inspiration for others to make old things new again. I used that wipe on poly before on an old cabinet that I painted 25+ years ago and it is still water repellant if someone sits a glass on it. Looking forward to many more videos this summer and to learn with you about using a sprayer.
The music and editing at 16:58 made me feel how long this project took. You are so determined. Wow!
Haha! Neim says he's happy to hear that as the choice in the tone and pace of the song were placed there to reflect that.
Thanks for watching!
I'm going to do something similar to this to my kitchen table and chairs tomorrow... and looking for all the tips I can get. This video was super insightful and your project came out beautiful! Nice work! Wish me luck...😁
The stain process is super satisfying to watch!!
Well glad you enjoyed, it's a fun process to partake in as well 😄
New to furniture makeovers and this is a great video full of valuable information!!! Thank you!
This is BEAUTIFUL!!!! I have a dining room table and chairs that is on my list of things to do. Now, that you've shown how to do this, I won't have to fret anymore! Thanks for ALWAYS teaching us new things!!!
You got it Poppy! You are so so welcome my friend 😊
You rock, i'm a retired school teacher and so I am doing some projects around my home. You motivated me. I have a table in my carport that i've just sanded. You gave me a glimpse of what I am to do. For that I thank you! I'm amazed that you could do all that work in sixteen hours... It looked like a lot more work than that. Honestly i'm a little afraid. Thank you for your demonstration. I bet you are a rockstar teacher as well!
An exceptionally beautiful transformation!
Well done!
it’s absolutely amazingly beautiful.
OMG this set came out absolutely gorgeous 😍😍😍
That turned out BEAUTIFUL!!
Thank you! It sure did! Worth the time investment 🙌
You did a beautiful job! The homeowners should be proud. 🙂
I love doing dining sets it has the quickest resale for me.
I’m so glad I found your site. I’m in Australia. I’ve just started revamping out every old second hand dining table and 4 chairs. Boy is it hard work!
Beautiful result! Thanks for sharing. 👍😁
that dining set is BEAUTIFUL! Now I want to refinish my own dining room table! ha! I won't, but,..I'll dream!
STUNNING work, well done!!!
It does look amazingly
Beautiful outcome. Your friends got a great deal, hope they have you a good tip
Wow that stain color was spot on, looks great. Exciting that you guys are saving for a house. Your doing great !!!
Thank you! 😀
It turned out awsome!
Thanks!
Again you did a great job gave me a lot of tips on a dining set I'm going to refresh for my kids thank you.
Love it! It’s exactly what I wanted to see !! I feel like I can start with my set now !! Yey!!
Stunning transformation
Thank you Mary! A ton of work but love how it turned out 😊
Thanks for watching!
Absolutely beautiful result 😳 I’m definitely going to have a go 👍
WOW! Great job. I am so impressed. It looks awesome!
Turned out beautiful, you are a good teacher 🤗💕
Wow! You did an amazing job! Thank you for the video! ❤️
It turned out beautiful and TYFS. Have a wonderful day.
I really enjoyed this session. It turned out beautiful!
Thanks for sharing your expertise!
This just popped up in my feed tonight and WOW! It is so inspiring how far you’ve come since doing this piece (which looks awesome) just 7 months ago!! Obviously you are quite experienced with a sprayer since doing this set (I just watched you do the crib with the Graco one, which is definitely a more advanced sprayer), but this is a great tutorial for those just starting out, or prefer to hand paint vs spraying. Congrats on the success you’ve had this year and can’t wait to see what 2022 brings for you and Neiman!💜
Stunning. Definitely get a good sprayer. I'm a teacher too, so I admire your tenacity working after school. I no longer have the steam to do that.
I used to teach and my first thought was "how does anyone have the energy to do ANYTHING after a day of teaching, planning, grading, meetings, etc??"
@@TiredKnitter The only way I cope is to do a tiny thing when I'm able. It may just be a lick of paint on something. Otherwise I'm too kaput.
It turned out beautiful...it is what I want to do with my kitchen and dining room set....ty for sharing...you are great
I love doing dining sets! Lol! The chairs can be pretty tricky, but I really enjoy the end result. I really love the way this turned out and can't wait to try the stained seats myself!
Well done Lauren! Great finish. Loving your channel.
Beautiful job, a lot of work but so satisfying! I love how it turned out.
Lauren Thank You so much for your great teaching videos! I am so sad I did not find you sooner ! We just moved from Fremont, NE to Texas. I want this dining room set! Beautiful!
I love the slats I love this setting I'm wanting to update my very tired old old finning set and this is the look I'm inspired to try, thanks for sharing all the best Mary in Australia ⚘😘
Just Beautiful!!!
Truly time consuming and a lot of patience required. It paid off.
Beautiful work!!
I loved!!
Beautiful professional work. Love the care you took and attention to detail. Good luck in the future and may your home ownership dreams come true.🙂
You did a beautiful job. It looks GREAT! I really like this style.
Thank you so much!
Love your work!
Yay, I’m glad to hear! Thanks for sharing and being here Suzanne 😊
Looks fantastic. I like the stain on the seats and the table.
Gorgeous results. Definitely exited for you to get a sprayer.
That looks like a totally different dining set!!! Great job 😁😁😁
The stain looks beautiful.
So beautiful! Great job!
Thank you Meg 💕
Thank you! I have almost same set i've been thinking of painting.
I'm impressed.. Awesome job!
Lauren you did an OUTSTANDING JOB ! I am about to refinish our kitchen table {was weak finish when we bought it}, and watching your video with all of your detailed information, has given me the courage to take on my project. I need to borrow a sander for now, but I am looking forward to buying a sander like yours soon. Love the wipe on Poly. Sure looks easier than brushing on Poly. Thank you for sharing !
Beautiful job and I know how much work this was! I've done a lot of refinishing over the last 40 years. I generally use oil base paint and stains for durability on high use furniture.
Thank you very much Karen! I’m glad I’m not in the struggle alone 😊
You’re doing it right! Thanks for watching.
I really enjoyed watching your video and learned a lot and I feel confident enough that I’m going to try your techniques on my current dining set that I was going to sell and replace now I think I’m going to make it the way I want it instead thank you great tips great job!!
Wonderful, professional work!
Thank you very much!
Great video! I'm going to be trying a dining set in the near future so it was good watching you and getting all those tips. For someone who's less than a year in you do great work and know what you're doing! I hope I can continue learning from you, most of what I've done so far has been my own but I've got some pieces to start soon that I hope to flip.
Just watching today’s video. Listen to an old lady: don’t use water based top coat - ever. I did on my kitchen table when it was new. Why, you ask. It was too shiny bright for my kitchen. Water based gets sticky in the humidity of summer. Enough so that all summer I was scrubbing the table 4, 5, 6 times a day as it would collect cat hair. Yeah! Just try keeping cats off the table. Frankly, it was disgusting. A friend used it on a wooden rocker. It wasn’t some place you wanted to sit. Maybe summer doesn’t bring high humidity where you are but come July here, it’s darn near raining inside! BTW: you inspired me to tackle refinishing the dining room chairs I’ve been planning to do for about 45 years. They aren’t in perfect shape (about 100 years old). But I’m not either.
You got this! Good luck! (: Thanks for watching!
With the exception to general finish products. Just saying that stuff is worth the money! Two coats satin and one coat of flat give the durability and the low luster finish of a Farmhouse look.
@@karleefuchs6670 : another artist here uses that: 2 coats gloss and one coat matte on her acrylic paintings.
@@amieinnovascotia8490 I do all the time. Huge durability and just the right look after it is all done!
@@karleefuchs6670 : as I mentioned in my original comment, I used a water based clear coat on my kitchen table. It’s OK this time of year but when the heat of the summer coupled with high humidity arrived, the surface became gummy and cat fur plus the grey litter dust from their paws was positively gross. I was constantly scrubbing the table top - every time I entered the kitchen. Don’t know how it stands up on paintings but probably fine. I use oils so can’t apply water base over it.
I love the wood stain color!!!
yes! glad I'm keeping it! (:
I love the look!!
Thank you! (:
It came out beautifully 😍.
This came out incredible!
Thank you 🤗
Thanks for the finishing tip. I didn't know that.
You did an excellent job. I was expecting such precision because you are a teacher. It's in your blood . Your tutorials and explanations are stellar. From a retired school teacher to a Young teacher, You Get an A+
Looks fantastic
Thanks! (:
Well done you! Really appreciate all your experienced tips😀
You did an absolutely spectacular job on this set, truly outstanding!! Such attention to detail :) you have inspired me to tackle several peices I have in my basement which are perfect for a paint revival!! :)
Looks great! I'm hoping to do my own dining room table in the same way. I like the clean look (not distressed) and will also do a darker stain, but this video definitely gives me a more realistic idea of how long it will actually take. Love watching your channel, keep up the outstanding work! I'm learning so much!
You can do it! Sounds like you have the vision now go out and execute! We would love to see before/afters if you wanted to share. Thanks for watching!
Oh Lauren what a mammoth effort but the results are well worth it 👏🏼😘
What a beautiful set! You are truly talented. I always learn something or lots of things from your channel. You are so beautiful and talented. Also thank you for developing the minds of the children. I'm sure you are a very requested teacher. Blessings to you.
Thanks, Tracy! Appreciate your kind words! 🤗
Good learning project for us all. Great job.
