| I've kept my eye out for some sort of hutch. I wasn't really looking though, when I found this on Craigslist. Up early as always, with everyone asleep...I took measurements, wrote an email, copied down the phone number and plotted. |
 |
| By, 8:30 a.m I was first in line. As a blogger, I was feeling guilty that I didn't find it for $25 and repaint in myself, but for a mere $300 I thought I’d save myself a lot of work. I was tickled when we got it home and even the old light bulb was working. had no idea it was lighted when we went to see it. |
 |
| Poor Stan. Woken up at 8:30 a.m. to be told he has to help me figure out
what type of U-haul to rent. He's barely awake and so afraid of what I
am up to now. |
 |
| When we arrive to see the hutch, I immediately asked if he was set and firm on $300. He simply said,
"No." So I said, would you take $250....thinking that's the $50 for the
trailer we have to rent. He said yes. Stan was impressed with bargaining
and frankly I am impressed that Stan and I got it into the house on our
own with no problems. | | | | | |
 |
| My dad's family sugar spoon. No longer in a cupboard. |
 |
| Stan is a good sport. He even took the kids to the park, because he knew momma wanted to play with her new toy. |
 |
| Best of all....a place for my knee hugger elves and of course my Eva Zeisel Hallcraft dishes that were just stuck in a cupboard. Read about those Here |
I know I'll have fun with it and even just having three more "cabinet" draws in my tiny house will help! I'll be changing this up a lot. What do think? Good deal?
Oh I love it! I think it was a great find and already finished! So beautiful!
ReplyDeleteThanks, Danni!! I wasn't sure if it would fit there well or be too bulky, but it works. I like it. So glad I didn't have to paint, etc. :)
DeleteYou got a fabulous deal! WOW! It's perfect and the price is excellent. The kids sure look cute all dressed up in their cute outfits! And I love your little pixies...I collect them, too!
ReplyDeleteI love your beautiful hutch! You've filled it with lovely collections, which I love too.

Hi Karen Mary Butterfly! (Love your name!) I am your newest follower. Was cruising your blog and thought I had better comment before I am off to another one of your posts. Love your cabinet! Gorgeous. Now you can store all of your dishes that you can't part with. Yes I read that post too! Love your blog. Cheers.
ReplyDeleteI think your kids are cute as two little buttons, and I think your hutch is beyond awesome. You definitely got a good deal because you didn't have to paint it, lugging it in and out or having the house messed up for a week or more while painting. Love the way you have it decorated and you'll enjoy every season changing things up a bit. Great job! Mary
ReplyDeleteDefinitely an amazing deal! Paint isn't free. Your time isn't free. Factor those in and you basically paid nothing for your new hutch! ; )
