Unique China Hutch Redone (Almost)

When I found this Queen Anne China Hutch, I figured it would sell in a heartbeat.  

Solid wood, all original fixtures, excellent condition.  

Well, it must have been a very slow heartbeat, because it just sat in my garage until my favorite customer decided to purchase it for her daughter’s birthday. 

Just one glitch.

She wanted it white.

And I agreed to paint it for her.

Every morning now, you’ll find me outside painting away.

Eden stays busy, playing here and there.

She’s the best side kick; my little princess with an otter pop, my little shadow in a denim jumpsuit.

I was a bit intimidated by this project, so I thought I’d practice on another piece of furniture before I started.

I found this funky piece of vintage history at Goodwill for $15.00.

I listed it on craigslist for $50.00 and it didn’t sell.

This was the perfect piece to practice on. 

If I messed up, I wasn’t out much.

Although this piece of furniture is partition wood laminate, it is really well built.

I wasn’t sure if spray paint would be adhesive, but it worked better then I thought.

Once it looked perfect, I became a little nervous.

Around here, things don’t stay perfect for long, so I decided to stain it a bit.

I recently sold my turquoise vintage dresser that sits on my front porch, 

so I needed a new piece to replace it.

I love how the details pop now!  What a difference spray paint makes.

Eden found ways to stay busy while I worked.

 “Mama,” she shouts, wanting me to watch her on the big wheel.

I love hearing her say Mama.  Music to my ears.

I hope to have the china hutch finished by the end of the week. 

Can’t wait to show you the end result.
