I haven’t told you all the news yet… but my mom is moving in with us. Yes that’s right… My 900 sq. Ft. will be shared with an additional 2 dogs and one adult. That puts the total in our 900 sq. ft. at 3 adults, 4 dogs and 2 cats!
That means for some creative storage ideas. I needed a place to store my craft supplies now that my craft room has been taken over. So here is what I found:
ok that is not the EXACT before because I forgot to take it. But it was similar…mine had a chicken wire type metal in the two side panels…I saw it’s potential for great storage! I purchased it off craigslist for $100.
You have probably heard around blog land that Home Depot is clearancing out the Ralph Lauren Paint. So I got myself some “Roadster White” paint.
Then got Clearanced Hardware from Target
Then Fabric from Joann’s
And TA DA
The Details
I think I am still going to sand some edges but that’s it. Now I have all this space in the dining room to store my craft supplies and I can use the dining room table to do them on!
Stay Tuned for more projects as I work on combining households!!!

Your hutch looks great! I have that SAME EXACT hutch that my Aunt gave me. I painted mine white too (well, heirloom white). I LOVE the way you put fabric to hide all your craft stuff. Here's mine if you want to check it out http://thecraftmonkey.blogspot.com/2009/10/hutch-that-almost-never-was.html
When I saw your hutch on Cottage Instincts I was like "hey, I recognize that hutch!" haha
(hope you don't mind that I left that link)
Wow! It is lovely and a fabulous makeover! The cream is a beautiful shade and the fabric is perfect. I adore the fullness of the fabric in the doors and they make such a HUGE difference in polish over the glass. Great job!
Beautiful! I did something similar with mine years ago, and it also holds craft supplies! Mine isn't nearly as beautiful as yours, though.
I just found your blog through Shanty2Chic.
I love it! Great work! = ) Keep it up!!
Very pretty!
lovely makeover! just wondering what the name of the fabric is-- it looks perfect for a project i have in mind. :)
Oh this is brilliant! I am redoing a similar piece. How did you attach your fabric pretty please?
Wow, that is now one stunning piece of furniture. You did such a good job. Do you use a paint sprayer? It looks so smooth.

Would love to know how you attached the fabric? Did you sew it first? I have a hutch very similar in my garage waiting for something just like this. Please let me know. Thanks, Mari
That's so crazy I have a china cabinet that I have been saying I was going to make a craft storage and my friends looked at me cross eyed. I love it.
Fantastic!! This cabinet is beautiful. We live in Auburn, WA...always fun to see other bloggers from our area :-)
So cute! I am trying to redo a cabinet right now. Did you sand or strip the wood? I HATE sanding and am trying to figure out a way to get around it!
