The Hutch - Revisited

Lets talk about that hutch again.

We told you guys about our hutch before - here, here, and here... Remember? We had BIG plans! This was our latest to do list:

Glass in the doors - Hubby wants to find some antiqued glass

Magnets to keep doors closed (so we can nix the twine)

Resquare and support doors

Resquare and support lower desk

Line drawers with pretty paper

Repaint due to my staining fiasco and messy rag handling

Wax up those drawer guides

Well, things have changed. We wanted to get all of that stuff done to put it in our new place! But, we are living in this place and have decided that the hutch would just take up a lot more space than we are willing to give up and it isn't necessary anymore because of all of the cabinet space we have in our kitchen. In our old apartment, we had a total of 4 cabinets and a pantry. Now we have more than triple that.

We don't want to be those people who allow beautiful pieces to waste away so The Mister is finishing the list and will sell it in his Etsy shop! The base is a saved, antique desk and the top is a custom, hand built piece. And let me tell you it is coming along nicely.

I look forward to showing you guys where this goes! The list has already dwindled down, so it shouldn't be too much longer... see:

Whoever decides to purchase this will have a unique, custom, sturdy piece built with lots of love.
