{Revamped Hutch}

Guess what?!!  I made it to the top five of Creative Bloggers Got Talent!!!!!!!!!!  I'm so excited!!!!!!  (Hence all the exclamation marks...)  This is the project that got me to the FINAL ROUND.  :) Whenever I need a furniture piece for a room I'm working on, before I ever go to a thrift store or a furniture store, I check out the furniture pieces my grandmother left after she passed away.  She LOVED furniture and had A LOT of it.  I decided recently that I needed a storage piece for a room I'm working on, so I went "shopping" and found this hutch.

The hutch needed a lot of TLC before it could become beautiful again.  I had to reattach some molding that was about to fall off, and I had to fill in some holes and dents.  My dad reinforced a leg and a shelf for me.  After all that was done, it was time for the refinishing!  I spray painted this piece like I do pretty much every piece I refinish.  I'm not going to go through every single step to refinish this piece because everything I know about spray paint I learned from Brooke of All Things Thrifty.  She has a wonderful post on the best way to spray paint.  

After following Brooke's directions for spray painting, I distressed and glazed the piece.  (Brooke has a great post about glazing too!  There are even VIDEOS, y'all!!!)  After I glazed, I sealed with several coats of polycrylic.  And here she is...
