This hutch popped up on CL for an incredible price. It was a little dated, but ONLY in the color. The lines, or bones, or shapes, are very cute, country, very farmhouse.
I was amazed that it was that old (we are talking mid 70's probably) and all the glass was there, all the doors were in good shape, drawers slid easily.
So I hauled it home. If you are wondering why ALL my pieces lately have been cream or white, it's because I have a gallon of mistinted paint from walmart that is a great color, somewhere between white and off white, and it is almost gone. I have a weird impulse to finish off paint that is almost gone. Maybe so it won't needlessly clutter my small workspace.
I cannot find the before pictures, I have searched and searched. It was a dark brown, with a bunch of black specks all over it. I don't know why furniture makers used to do this... I actually still see it occasionally.
But here is the after. It sold before I could post it here.
