We are Dani (daughter) and Sherry (Mom) and we flip furniture as a side hustle. This episode is all about our entry in the Ugly Duckling Challenge. This challenge is hosted by Cory @ Desert DIY. The rules are simple: Find an ugly piece of furniture and make it beautiful by 8/21/21. Cory will pick a winning entry and we are hoping it is ours because we found the 2 ugliest nightstands we have ever seen! But can we transform them into beautiful swans? Is this a true trash to treasure furniture makeover? Please watch and let us know what you think!
Honestly, we don’t expect to win this challenge as we are competing with many talented and wonderful furniture flippers/refinishers here on youtube. We are honored and blessed to have all the support and encouragement they have given us. Be sure to check out all their entries and videos on this playlist:
