The number one question I'm asked when it comes to furniture flipping is how can I tell if furniture is laminate, veneer or "real wood" In today's video I'm sharing 5 tips for spotting "real wood"and clear up the misconception that "real wood" is always solid wood. (IT'S NOT!!)

Watch this video all the way through if you are considering refinishing or flipping a piece of furniture in your home or thinking of #flippingfurniture for profit!!!!

I don't claim to be an expert but after years of flipping furniture, I do know that spotting the differences can still be challenging and my hope is that this video helps guide newbies in furniture flipping.

I think it's one of the most important things to know BEFORE attempting a furniture flip as it can save you big time from mistakes that can be avoided by doing the right prep and finish for your particular piece.

I also share about a pillow I have been using from #lifewit that's so comfy and has been one of favorite #amazonfinds

Love,
