People were quick to comment on the clip, with many asking what products Jess used to achieve the incredible transformation.

"I used Silver Sage RustOleum kitchen cupboard paint £25," Jess said.

"Rust-Oleum spray paint £14.

"Ribbeck oak vinyl from b&q, 3 rolls (£7.50/roll)."

"That’s a brilliant transformation," another praised.

"I’m going to do mine but worried about the vinyl wrap on the work tops.

"Was it hard to do?"

"I would start in an area you won’t really see if you make a mistake," Jess suggested.

"Good thing is you can just replace it for like £7.50!

"To be honest, it’s hard but I made so many mistakes and you can literally just use cut offs to repair."

"Babe this looks amazing!!!!!" a third said.

To which Jess replied: "Thank you SOOOOO much – I am buzzin with it!

"Just need a nice table with a cosy lamp on now!"

She also revealed that she'd shown off her crafty skills.
