Two Weeks of Painting Shabby Chic Furniture

I've slacked off on the blogging but I've been very busy painting furniture for some sweet moolah. In the past few weeks I have purchased quite a bit of furniture and also got my first custom order!

I also decided to start a Facebook page. I think it would be a good idea to start a following for people who are interested in what I do, or who are actively buying furniture. Who knows. You can follow me here: www.facebook.com/dfwshabbychicfurniture  https://www.facebook.com/thatshabbyguy (Updated to correspond with my new business name)

I'm going to rush through this post since I am kinda beat from too much furniture painting. There's a lot of pictures to show off.

I got this for free out of an abandoned storage unit thanks to my storage facility manager!

Sold this beauty for $400! My highest so far! $350 profit!
Got this one with a matching dresser. $100 for the set.

...and here is the matching dresser.

Sold this set for $550 for $400 profit.
I bought this dresser for $125 and sold it for $400. $250 profit.
I got these two dressers for $100 each!

Matching chest for the $200 set.
Someone on my Facebook page custom ordered the set for $800! $600 profit! 
I'm constantly looking for more furniture and I have bought more furniture to paint but I'll save them for later posts when I get it all painted and sold.

My painting furniture for profit business is still going strong. The past two weeks has yielded $1600 profit. I'm still in line with my previous post around $800 for the week. Shabby chic furniture is very profitable. I hope that I can continue this pace!
