I made £1k after selling a drinks trolley I bought from a charity shop for £15 – all I did was make a few style tweaks
One WOMAN revealed she couldn’t afford a £1,000 designer bar cart so she made it herself from a £15 charity shop.
The bargain hunter made some simple tweaks to the finished look and everyone praised her hard work.

On her @flipdaddy account, she said: “Watch me turn a $20 (£15) goodwill bar van into an Anthropologie hoax.
“When I first found this I thought it was an authentic $1,350 (£1,065) Mid Century piece, turns out it just came from Wayfair.
“First I wash it, spray paint the hardware yellow, I’ll line these moldings on top.
“Next I started painting the work black.
“Next, I glued the wood to the mold and started painting and just when I thought I was almost done, it wasn’t.
“This is tedious.
“Next, I removed the original wheels and put the new ones in.
“Sealed and here is the finished product.
“It’s not exactly Anthropologie’s stroller, but it’s pretty close.”
Her video has garnered more than 16,000 likes and people praise her hard work.
One said: “Looks great.”
Another added: “much better than anthropology.”
