Whew! It's taken me a bit longer than I anticipated to complete the hutch I picked up in Daytona a couple of weeks ago; mostly due to the heat... (and getting sidetracked in a few thrift stores)
But, she's finally completed!
Here are the befores:
I would like to introduce you to:
Ms. Daytona!
Ain't she pretty?
She's a petite thing, standing only 69 inches..
(she's a saucy one!! LOL)
But wide around the middle at 54 inches..
I lined and mod podged her single drawer
with french script scrap book paper..
And the bottom interior..
Now she has her own hidden, unique style.
I distressed her edges
so she'd stand out in a crowd a bit more..
And, waxed her all over so she'd
shine just a bit,
like the superstar she is!!
~
Now that Ms. Daytona
has made her debut,
I'd love to hear what you think!!
From that.... to this!

Thanks so much for coming by and leaving your comments Sylvia, Debra and Pattie!! :) You guys are awesome, and I'm so happy you're here!
ReplyDeleteYou should be proud of yourself because that is wonderful. I love love love the idea of mogpodging the drawers with script lining. I have bought some not so perfect drawers before and that would work wonderfully. I also see that you are a FL gal. I am in Tampa. So it is nice to meet you.
