2015 Holiday Gift Guide for the Furniture Flipper

11/24/15

2015 Holiday Gift Guide and Giveaway

Raise your hand if you love a giveaway! I’m super excited to be taking part in the 2015 Holiday Gift Guide and Giveaway blog hop with some of my favorite bloggers. I did it last year too and had so much fun searching for gifts that hopefully helped give you guys some ideas of what to put on your list or what to buy for a friend.

Here’s how it works. The hop started yesterday with 5 bloggers and 5 awesome gift guides. Each of those bloggers is giving away something from their guide and there will be 5 new ones each day this week. That means 25 awesome giveaways for you to enter. Pretty sweet right?

This year I decided to put together a little gift guide for the Furniture Flipper. After doing this for about 2 years, I’ve come to realize there are some must have items that I can’t live without and I wanted to share them with you.

*this post contains affiliate links. see my full disclosure policy here.*

Gift Guide for the Furniture Flipper

1. PAINT
Of course you can flip furniture without it, but my makeovers usually always involve paint. Country Chic is a product I’ve used multiple times and have always had a great experience with. They have the best selection of colors, in my opinion. Oh and this awesome starter package is what I’m giving away today 😉

2. Ryobi Corner Cat Sander
A sander is an absolute must. I don’t use it on every makeover, but when you have stubborn veneer you want to remove, this guy gets the job done. We’re besties.

3. Measuring Tape
I need to attach one of these to my body somehow. I always lose mine. And how pretty is this gold one??

4. Hammer
There’s always something that needs hammering. Trust me.

5. Scissors
A must have. Especially gold ones.

6. Ryobi Cordless Drill
I don’t own this…yet, but I need it. We don’t have a cordless drill and it’s always a pain having to make sure you’re near an outlet to use it.

7. Bluetooth Speakers
Friend’s of ours recently gave us these speakers as a gift and they are amazing. Sometimes working with no music is relaxing and peaceful, but jamming out is just as fun. Especially when you have a project that’s taking a while to finish.

8. Hardware
One of my favorite things about flipping furniture is the pretty new hardware.

9. Scrubby Soap
I was recently introduced to this stuff and will never use anything else. It gets literally anything off my hands and smells amazing.

10. Scissors
This is another thing I lose all. the. time. I need to buy like 10 of them and keep one in each room of the house. I recently discovered this one at Target and am obsessed. It has every head you need all attached to one body, and it has a little light to help you see into those dark nooks and crannies.

11. HomeRight Sprayer
I only started spraying some of my furniture recently, but it’s a total game changer.


THE GIVEAWAY!

As mentioned above, I’ll be giving away this awesome Starter Package from Country Chic Paint. Here’s what it includes:

  • two pints of All-in-One Decor Paint in the colors of your choice
  • 4 oz jar of All-in-One Decor Paint in the color of your choice
  • 4 oz jar of glaze in the color of your choice
  • 4 oz jar of natural wax
  • 2 oz jar of antiquing wax
  • medium paint brush
  • FREE color card

GOOD LUCK! And don’t forget to check out all the other amazing giveaways listed at the bottom of this post 🙂

    YES! I use all of these all the time except I don’t have a Homeright Sprayer…that might have to change. I need to try out that scrubby soap too. Great gift guide, Bre! By the way, is #10 supposed to say “screwdriver”? I know pregnancy brain is a very real thing. 😉

    What a great list of gift ideas, Bre! I’m thinking I need to start doing more furniture makeovers — just for the cool toys. I’m getting ready to re-do my sons’ room after the first of the year and could use the paint to help with some projects in there.

    Oh, I am so excited. Kind of on purpose I spray painted my white tin cans to make snowman on my dining room table. Darn! Not really. Had already decided I was going to paint it and oh joy I have to. In between Thanksgiving and Christmas or Christmas and New Years. Table clothes hide a multitude of white circles on my table now.

A couple weeks ago I had the chance to virtually t A couple weeks ago I had the chance to virtually tour the @hgtv Dream Home 2021! It’s in Newport, Rhode Island and we got to hear all about the design process from @bpatrickflynn who did an incredible job once again. I always love hearing what inspires a designer and where their inspiration comes from. And since we’re knee deep in an exterior makeover, it was so fun to hear all about how this home’s exterior was brought to life with the help of @belgardoutdoorliving. It got me thinking about the hardscape of our backyard plans which wasn’t something I had thought much about. It’s a great way to create more livable space with things like patios, outdoor kitchens and fire pits. And they recently launched the Belgard Rooms Program which allows you to visualize exactly what your space can be. They’re kindly offering up a fire pit kit for me to give away to one of you so be sure to head to my stories to enter! Are you working on any fun outdoor makeovers this year?

It was about a year ago that we were getting ready to rip out this bathroom and start demo. The last bathroom in our home that needed updating and I had so much fun designing it! You probably wouldn’t know it was a kids bathroom but I’ve always been a huge believer in not having to sacrifice beauty when designing spaces for my kids. I love the challenge of keeping it in line with my aesthetic while still making it functional and fun for them. But I did put their toothbrushes away for this pic 🤪 happy hump day! #breinspired

So not only are these pretty but they’re practical too - good lighting is a total game changer and I’m all about setting the right mood for a space. Totally worth hiring an electrician to make my sconce dreams come true! 😍
