Yellow Hutch

I've got a friend
 who found
 this baby during the summer
and decided to transform it into something
beeeeautiful.

 
The first step was to prime the insides to get rid of the lovely smoke smell that came with it.  Then chalk paint the whole thing inside and out.


 
Then she came to the part where she didn't know if she wanted to leave it or to dark wax it.
So she tried both looks on the door fronts.
(left has dark wax, right is without)


She decided to keep it crisp and clean
and left it a bright yellow with just the clear wax.


I think it looks wonderful


and I love all the fabric that is now on display.


So cute......
and if I remember correctly I think she said
that I could have it,
for free.

She's nice like that.
;)

    I need one of those so I can hoard more fabric, but do it in style! So pretty.

    This yellow hutch came out much cuter than mine, I think.

    your friend did a great job! I'm not usually a fan of yellow, but this is so pretty with all that fabric stored in it.
