@thefliphut: Someone call up Sesame Street because I just found Big Bird on the loose in a GOODWILL 🐥 This $17 coffee table was covered in a thick, glowing yellow paint — but after taking a peek underneath, I realized the entire thing was solid wood 🪵 I spent days (yes, actual days) stripping away those layers of paint. Underneath the yellow was a surprise blue coat, and finally… the most beautiful wood grain waiting to be revealed 🛠️ After cleaning everything up with acetone and sanding it smooth, I decided to preserve that coastal, sun-washed look by applying a light whitewash to tone down the yellow and keep it feeling fresh and airy 🌬️ A final coat of polycrylic sealed it all in, and honestly — this coffee table could pass for something straight out of a Pottery Barn showroom 🛋️ This flip took a lot of elbow grease and patience, but those are always the ones that feel the most rewarding — getting to bring hidden beauty back to life ♻️ 👉 Be honest — would you have had the patience to strip all those layers, or would Big Bird still be sitting in your living room? 😅 Shop all the tools & supplies for this flip from the link in my bio 🔗 #furnitureflip #furnituremakeover #DIY #upcycling #flipforprofit

Gorgeous!! I had that exact coffee table when I got married in 1994! I bought mine at a yard sale! My daughter has it now. Yours looks so much better! I may have to redo mine! 💖💖💖💖

Where do you live that FB Marketplace is a $300 possibility? I'm in the quasi sticks, and that's a $50 sell here, even restored, tops.

This was a Pier One coffee table. Had it back in the early 2000’s.

I would prefer dark wood for myself but you always do an amazing job on this stuff. Definitely not missing that horrible yellow

My first furniture purchase at the ripe age of 19 was this exact coffee table and end table. I LOVED it. It was prob my $200 for both and that was the scariest purchase for me. I knew the exact color of that table under the yellow!

I pulled and stripped every piece of trim off of a 4 bedroom, 2 living rooms, 1903 Colonial. It took a year but worth it. There were so many pieces of trim and baseboard!
