Flea Market Flip Season 2 Episode 5 Battle of the Roomies

In season 2 episode 5 of Flea Market Flip, two pairs of roommates go head-to-head in a battle to see who can flip the best item for the most profit. The host, Lara Spencer, introduces the contestants, who are all excited to show off their design and renovation skills.

The first pair, Heather and Megan, are roommates who have a passion for vintage and shabby chic style. They search the flea market for a large, unique piece of furniture that they can transform into a statement piece. After some debating, they settle on an old wooden trunk with metal accents. Heather and Megan plan to turn it into a coffee table with a distressed finish and added storage space. They work tirelessly to sand, paint, and distress the trunk, and even add a small drawer to the side for extra storage. The finished product impresses the judges with its functionality and unique style.

The second pair, Adam and Shaq, are roommates with a contemporary and modern design aesthetic. They search the flea market for a sleek and stylish item that they can transform into a high-end piece. They stumble upon an old, metal drafting table with rusted legs, and ultimately decide to make it into a modern and funky desk. They spray paint the legs a metallic silver, add a custom-cut piece of glass to the top, and add a pop of color with a bright green chair. The result is a cool and stylish desk that the judges love.

As the two teams present their items, it becomes clear that there is no clear winner. The judges deliberate and consider the functionality, creativity, and overall aesthetic of each piece before announcing the winner. In the end, there is a surprise twist as the judges announce a tie between the two teams. Heather and Megan and Adam and Shaq are thrilled to share the win, and the episode ends with the contestants enjoying each other's company over drinks and snacks in the flea market.
