Do you love furniture flips and need some new ideas to paint furniture? In this post, I’m sharing 19 pieces of furniture I painted and flipped for profit.

Do you have a piece of old furniture you don’t know what to do with? Or maybe you passed on a great deal at a yard sale because you weren’t sure how to fix it up?

I have been painting and refinishing furniture a lot this past year as a side job. I love making side money, being creative, and making old things new again. If that sounds good to you, then don’t pass up that yard sale furniture!

You’ll be ready to grab that old furniture to redo after you see these furniture flips!

19 Inspirational Furniture Flips

I hope you feel inspired to fix up and flip some furniture. Fill your home with personality and character or make some side money with your furniture flips!

Vintage Chair

My mother in law found this old chair and I was so excited to fix it up! This blue vintage color was exactly what I had in mind for it. I just can’t decide if I want to put it on my porch or in the kitchen…

Farmhouse Office Desk

I bought this desk for $30 to flip for a profit. It was a beast of a piece to work on, but I love the way it turned out.

I ended up making my own chalk paint to save some money. New hardware from Hobby Lobby gives it a fresh look! I sold this desk for $220!

Free Foot Stool

My husband saw this little stool in a dumpster and grabbed it for me. He laughs at how excited I get with his dumpster finds!

He named it the world’s smallest table, but I turned it into a foot stool with a little paint, distressing, a foam cushion, and some fabric.

Rolltop Desk

My husband’s coworker knows I love refinishing furniture, and showed up with this roll top piece at our house one day. I didn’t get a before picture, but it was just the top piece and it was brown.

My husband added spindles for the legs, and made the bottom for the roll top to sit on. We spray painted it white and spray painted the knobs with a textured spray paint, then bronze paint. This one sold for $150.

Farmhouse Armoire

I’m mad I didn’t get a before picture of this one. You can imagine just a plain brown TV cabinet.

I painted this one with my DIY Chalk Paint, distressed it, put a wax coating, and spray painted the knobs. The biggest update was cutting out the middle of the door and replacing it with chicken wire.

Yard Sale Table

I found this table at a yard sale for $5. A fresh coat of paint and a new knob give it a fresh new look!

After:

Rustic Side Table

This was another yard sale find. The top of this table got wet and messed up, so I used pallet wood to create a rustic top and love the way it turned out.

Yard Sale Side Table

I love finding these side tables at yard sales! This one I painted with grey chalk paint and spray painted the handles bronze.

Farmhouse Side Table Set

I had these two side tables that were mismatched, but I painted and distressed them the same to create a unique farmhouse pair. I sold the pair for $125!

After:

Rustic Desk

Again, I didn’t get a before picture, but this desk was super simple and dated.

A fresh coat of white chalk paint, a little distressing, new knobs and pulls, and it was new again!

Free Credenza

I found this free credenza desk on Craigslist, painted it with grey chalk paint, and added new hardware. This was a big makeover!

Free Side Table

This side table came with the free credenza from Craigslist. I just painted it with white chalk paint, distressed it, and sold it for $40!

Farmhouse Kitchen Table

This was a Craigslist find that I just painted white, distressed, and resold for profit.

Grey Side Table

This was a pretty basic table, but a fresh coat of grey chalk paint and spray painting the handles gave it a fresh look!

Free Side Table

We grabbed some free furniture off Facebook and painted and distressed this side table for a $55 profit!

Free Desk

Another free piece that turned into $140 profit!

Free Bookcase

The back on this bookcase had some holes in it, so I replaced it with beadboard for a fresh look.

Can you tell I love getting free furniture? And painting things white and distressing them? 🙂 This turned into $60 profit!
