Ta Da.....

oh wait just kidding...Hardee Har Har :) it has been a crazy busy weekend/week and I ended up having to work Monday thru Wed this week. This leaves Thursday and Friday wide open to finish my project.
Which is...A kitchen Hutch!

I have browsed all the thrift stores, craigslist and GW in Nashville for a hutch to put in the kitchen. My Ironstone collection has out grown its small wall hutch (pictured below) and I have been bringing way to much "new-old" stuff into the house that needs a home.


So after having no luck at all.....I remember "Lightbulb" that Bri has a hutch in her room (Below). Im guessin... as a two year old she wont miss it and I have already found the perfect replacement bookcase in my bosses garage. His wife will be in town on Thursday and I can hardly wait to ask her if it can come and live at my place ;)

 

I still havent decided if Im going to distress it in cream.....distress it in black or just leave it wood. It may get left wood for the time being. I dont really have anywhere warm to take it to paint, sand ect and its just too darn cold outside still for that kind of project!
I do know that I am gonna borrow Layla @ The Lettered Cottage's  Idea for backing her open cabinetry with burlap....sigh.....love is burlap.....lol.
  If you haven't been over to meet Layla and her husband. You must! They are too funny and so inspiring! 





What do you think? To paint or not to paint?? Burlap backing, no burlap backing??

I would do it in cream with wall paper in a shabby print.
