Lena Carter

Hi, I’m Lena Carter! a full-time furniture flipper, part-time coffee addict, and all-around lover of secondhand treasures. What started as a weekend hobby in college (flipping an old dresser I found on the curb!) turned into a full-fledged passion and side hustle. Over the past 12 years, I’ve refinished hundreds of pieces, from mid-century credenzas to farmhouse tables and I love helping others get started with the tools, techniques, and confidence to do the same. Through this blog, I share everything I’ve learned: sourcing tips, paint & stain guides, profit breakdowns, and plenty of DIY tutorials. Whether you’re flipping to sell or to style your own space on a budget — I’m here to help you turn trash into treasure. Thanks for stopping by and don’t forget to check out the before & after gallery! Lena 💛
