Okay, I'm playing catch up on here & trying to share some great pieces of furniture with y'all. Of course, none of them are "new" but "new" to me. Vintage, antique, and used is my vibe & I love it!


Let's chat about my hutch. I think she came into my life back in 2010!!! WOW, I am surprised that I've had her that long! She has served several purposes & each one has been special. The hutch is a deep olive with gold wax & the base was a rustic farmhouse table painted a very light creamy yellow. The base has always been wobbly. I honestly have no idea how it held her for all of those years. Up until our move, the hutch now sits on what used to be our TV table. It's a tad wider & way stronger than the farmhouse table. I've removed the doors numerous times & used them separately too. Let's go down memory lane & chat about how I've used this beautiful hutch.


The 1st time was in my boutique that I had ten years ago, yes, I had a women's boutique & it was perfect. The hutch was in the front of the store. It was the display unit for the handbags & accessories. It was such a focal point. When I closed my store, I took her home with me, of course. Many people had wanted to buy it from me, but I just couldn't part with it. At my home, it has served as part of my closet; it held all my jeans!! Yup, three full shelves of jeans. The doors were removed at that time, one was for my accessories & the other one was for my scarves. I have moved a few times & each time she went with me. Thankfully I never have had to lift her. She is a heavy one. So they say. Before this last move, it held our daily dishes, glassware & a few other pieces. Now...


It holds my collection of ironstone, Dundee jars & French boards. Oh, my heart is so happy that I never sold her. This is the 1st time she sits on a new base. Her doors are attached to complete her look & believe me. She looks beautiful.


I love how I've always had use for her & she has been such a focal point every time. When you know you have a good piece, you hold onto it & that's what I've done with her.


I appreciate you so much for being here & for letting me share this sweet hutch. I've attached a video of when we moved. She was waiting to be filled & then showing her all dressed up.


I hope you enjoy

XO
