A New Old Hutch for My Kitchen

I had an Ikea hutch in my kitchen since I got married.  It was really cute and I still vividly remember my husband putting it together all those years ago!! but lately I've been switching gears to a more french look. 


 This is the Ikea Hutch. My niece is moving soon to her first place so I gave it to her in exchange of an overnight of babysitting, so hubby and I can to away on our anniversary!! Win Win!! 😉

  

And this is the new old  French style one! I painted the exterior it in ASCP Old white and the interior in ASCP Duck Egg. Then I applied a coat of clear wax. 





I sanded the paint in some spots to give it a distress look.  And replaced the door knobs with new ones as the ones that came with the hutch weren't that pretty. 


  I also adorned the side windows with two small boxwood wreaths.


Thanks for visiting today! Please say Hi before you go I would love to hear from you!!

  2. I had the exact same Ikea hutch in my previous place, I loked it but I left it when I sold the apartment to the new owner... I love your "new" old hutch, it has much more character and charm.

  3. I have a hutch similar to your new one - and I have the Annie Sloan sitting in a box nearby. And I've been scared to do this - but yours looks SO awesome, I am going to take the plunge.
