00:00I bet it'd be cool if I back-flipped off this thing.
00:01Nope, that was a horrible idea.
00:03Not safe, I repeat, not safe.
00:04Welcome back to another episode of turning pretty things into cha-chings.
00:08Well, I filled furniture for money and tell you my intrusive thoughts.
00:10Let's a go!
00:11I got this from a friend who told me that one of the drawers was stuck.
00:13It was indeed stuck.
00:15So stuck that I had to call in backup.
00:17When a problem comes along, Dad can fix it.
00:19When something's going wrong, Dad can fix it.
00:22And now the drawer is unstuck.
00:24Turns out the drawer glides were very, very broken.
00:26Thankfully, we have this random box full of assorted drawer glides.
00:29Ladies and gentlemen, you are witnessing when someone has a just-in-case box
00:32and the just-in-case actually happens.
00:33It's a miracle, people, because we had just enough to replace all the drawer glides.
00:36Hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah.
00:39Only problem is they were covered in spray paint.
00:41We pulled these off a dresser we couldn't salvage.
00:43RIP to that dresser.
00:44But today, her spirit will go on.
00:45Because thanks to the power of toxic chemicals, the spray paint came right off.
00:49Burn, baby, burn.
00:50And now I can remove these jacked-up drawer glides.
00:52Little this, little that.
00:53Yeet.
00:54Pop a newie.
00:55Bop some holes in there.
00:56Bop, bop.
00:56Secure the bag and on to the next one.
00:58Repeat till all drawers are slippin' and slidin'.
01:00Now that that's resolved, let's give her a clean.
01:01Which unfortunately means all stickers must go.
01:07And all the sticker residue that comes with them.
01:09Wipe on, wipe off.
01:10Wipe on, wipe off.
01:11Then get a sudsy little lather going.
01:13Gotta make sure this thing is clean so my sander can...
01:17We're sanding everywhere, including the nooks and crannies.
01:19So can't forget to remove the dust.
01:22And it's on to prime time.
01:26Now if you think I'm just gonna paint this and quick flip it.
01:28I am gonna do that.
01:28But I'm not just painting it.
01:30If we're not doing the most, then what are we doing?
01:32We're adding wallpaper.
01:34Hmm.
01:35That was embarrassing.
01:36Anyway, I called it the truth because there was a 10 out of 10 chance that I was going to mismeasure this.
01:39It takes two to make a thing go right.
01:41Once it's all cut, just apply the glue.
01:42I'll be right back.
01:43Can you guys watch my dad for a second?
01:44Say this.
01:44I love my daughter so much.
01:46She's the bestest in the whole world.
01:48And the back.
01:49Hope he didn't say anything bad about me while I was gone.
01:51Time to attach the wallpaper.
01:52Dear sweet baby Jesus, please let this wallpaper look good.
01:54Caress it a little bit.
01:55That's a good wallpaper.
01:56Lay nice and flat.
01:57This wallpaper is paintable, so we're gonna do that.
01:59But I'm gonna need to let this dry for 24 hours.
02:00So in the meantime, I will be spending every living second trying to decide between these two colors.
02:04And then I thought, what would the people want?
02:05Psst.
02:06You're the people.
02:06So I hope it's okay.
02:07I made a decision on behalf of you and the rest of the internet.
02:09And now the question is, did she make the right decision?
02:11Was this the color you would have picked?
02:13Say yes because it's happening.
02:17Make sure your eyes are looking at the screen.
02:18Ready?
02:18Cue the...
02:19Wow!
02:20Did you say wow?
02:21Don't make me come over there and say it for you.
02:22It's okay.
02:23You can admit this came out way better than you thought it was going to.
02:25I feel the exact same way.
02:26And for that reason, I'm gonna relist it for $400 on Facebook Marketplace.
02:29Unless you'd pay more.
02:30And in that case, I'll accept donations.
02:31And if you don't like my price, that's okay.
02:33You can look at it for free.
02:34Everybody loves free.
02:35Especially when you can turn free things into cha-chings.
