Shabby Blue LOVE


In my last post I shared an old beat up hutch that my husband brought home for me - I had this amazing idea for the back panel on the hutch...but my idea didn't work out as planned. The wall paper I had planned to put on well I didn't have enough. Dang it! Hate when that happens.
 

 
My husband actually picked out the shabby blue color - I sanded and painted the whole thing in the same color. See how filthy the hutch was?
 
 
 
The detail was amazing - dont'cha think?

 
There were a few small repairs that needed to be made - like fixing one of the drawers because the face had broken off. I also added some new pulls to the smaller drawers
(be ready for photo overload)
 
so here it is finished...
 
It's a very light shabby blue color - I think it looks good and thinking back the paper would have been to busy.

You can see the new pulls on the smaller drawers...vintage metal detailed pulls - they show a little rust on them still...

 
Bottom drawers - using the old hardware

 
Fixed that top left small drawer - using wood glue turned out as good as new. See the drawer below

 
Here is a side view of the spindles - cool right?

 
Here is a close up of the bottom sides of the hutch.

 
I gotta tell you I am loving this piece. A lot. But because I already have a wonderful hutch in my kitchen I can't keep it - all though I think it would make a cool crafting hutch actually {wink wink}
 
If you are interested in owning this hutch just email me at
curdiss2002@yahoo.com I am selling it for 175.00 or best offer.
 
Happy Hump Day!

  1. This is gorgeous. You are a lucky lady for your husband to bring things home like that. Forget flowers, give me old furniture to redo! I love the finishes you put on it.
