I used to think investing was for people with extr I used to think investing was for people with extra money.

Turns out it’s for people who start before they feel ready.

Six years ago, I had a mountain of debt and a prayer to get out of it. 

I started scared. One dresser at a time. One solid piece, a little paint, a buyer’s eye.

That side hustle became this business.

Here’s what I’d go back and tell myself: you dont need the perfect plan. You need to start.

Swipe through the ten things I wish I started sooner. Comment FLIP IT and I’ll send you a link to my 47pg guide to finding your first flip.

When in doubt, side hustle it out 🍋

#ad This was the saddest room in my house. 48 squa #ad This was the saddest room in my house. 48 square feet and I hated every inch of it. Comment LAUNDRY to get a list of what I used on this project!

Here’s everything that changed it:
🔨Peel and stick backsplash
🔨Cabinets I painted myself
🔨Butcher block across the washer and dryer
🔨Motion sensor lights that come on when you walk in

💥The real stars are the LG TurboWash washer and TrueSteam dryer from @loweshomeimprovement. A full load runs in under 30 minutes, the steam cycle is certified for pet dander and dust and the dryer syncs its own cycle to whatever the washer just ran. It even pings my phone when it’s done.

Same 48 square feet. Completely different room.

Now show me a laundry room smaller than mine. I’ll wait!

Caught up: we demoed it, hung the new cabinets, and put up peel and stick wallpaper. Today the butcher block goes in over the washer and dryer, and this is the piece that finally makes the room usable. Comment LAUNDRY for our full list of supplies. 

Everything in this series came from @loweshomeimprovement 

Part 3 is the fun part. Subscribe so you don’t miss it.
Would you have done butcher block or just left the tops bare? Tell me in the comments. ⬇️

My laundry room is 48 square feet and I’ve hated every inch of it since the day we moved in. So we’re fixing it, start to finish, and you get to watch the whole thing.
