New Projects!

So most of you might not know that one of Tyler and I's favorite things to do together is refinish furniture. Nerdy I know but we've done some really cool things that have really added to our house and that we'll keep for years to come, one of them being Addy's dresser which Tyler did a fantastic job on (I wasn't able to help as I was pregnant). We've also done a few side tables, Tyler's office desk, a sofa table, an old shelf thing that we turned into a sort of hutch and a dresser. We recently found a hutch on craigslist for free and thought we'd take advantage of it. It will be one of our biggest projects yet and having a baby around will make it even harder for us to work on it but it should be great when it's done! I think I'm going to paint it white and put some funky wall paper on the back behind the glass doors but I'm not sure yet. It's going to go in my kitchen. I might get some inspiration in my next Do It Yourself magazine.

It has like 4 coats of paint on it that need to be taken off and we'll be replacing the hardware.  Please let me know if you have any suggestions. I'm kind of open to anything!!
