Thrift Store Hutch

 I have been working on a hutch for my dining room that I found at the thrift store for nearly nothing.  It has been a lot harder than I thought it would be actually. 
I hand painted it first and then covered it in my favorite Heirloom white spray paint.  Once I was finished painting the outside, I used antique glaze all over it. 

I am still not finished working on the inside of the hutch.  I was just so excited on how it turned out that I couldn't wait to share.  I will post more pictures once I have it all finished.

I am working on a garage sale if you are wondering what all the junk is behind the hutch!

Found your blog through Kelly's Korner . . . I'm curious - do you usually sand your pieces before painting them? Also, how do you apply the spray paint? Just the cans? (sorry if that sounds like a dumb question!) I've only tried to redo a few small pieces and then one medium-sized wardrobe, and everything has been so much more work than I anticipate :( Your hutch is gorgeous!!

I L-O-V-E this hutch!! SO my taste! Is there anything you can't do?? I'm convinced there isn't. You are definitely inspiring me to redo some of my furniture...I think I might have to wait until Wes leaves town for a few days though.
