Before, During and After



Our latest project
This poor hutch was cooped up in a workshop for who knows how long.  Ryan rescued it and we decided to give it a little love.


Ryan made these doors for the bottom, which is great because it adds storage


Before we painted the doors to match


Done and decorated. My new love:)

    I love it. I have spent this week painting a china hutch I got off Craigslist. I'll be posting it in a few days. It's amazing what a little paint and elbow grease can do!

    Great job! I am in awe because this is the exact same hutch I just refinished...Different colors though. Amazing how different the same piece can look....

    That hutch is to die for! Great job. Coming over from BNOP.

    Btw, do you want to gain more blog followers? Then come on and join my "Swap Followings" Linky Party. This is an excellent opportunity for every blogger to meet other bloggers, follow them, and be followed in return. How does this work? Just simply "swap your following" which goes like this, "I follow your blog so please follow mine." All you have to do is create a post about the party, include the party button, follow 2 or more bloggers then leave them comments so they can follow you back.

    If you think this is a match for your interests (and I hope it is), then please click http://www.homemakeronadime.com/p/policies.html so you can read how it works and the details about the party. Don’t forget to join us on Monday at 5 pm, PST.

    Here's a link to our first party and read the comments so you can gauge the success rate we have: http://www.homemakeronadime.com/2011/01/swap-followings-linky-party-012411.html

    Thank you all so much! I truly love it, and am so thankful for the person who allowed us to have it and redo it:) We did put a white back on it (ohiofarmgirl), it was just a piece of thin pressed wood. We got it at Home depot, hope that helps:)
