I re-finished this buffet & hutch for my brother & sister-in-law. I am never happy with the pictures that I take. Photography is not easy, and not something I am good at – that’s for sure!!
before:
after sanding – getting them ready for paint
and here’s the after:
This hutch is very solid & well made – has 3 shelves with grooves for plates on them, and a cabinet at the bottom. I painted it black, and then sanded the edges to distress it a little. The back is painted green, with a black glaze on top – & look at those cute new hand painted knobs I found at Pier 1! It measures 76 inches high 24 inches deep, and the face is 34 inches across.
Before:
This hutch has 8 drawers that all slide nicely. There are 2 plate grooves for display, and a little cabinet for storage. It measures 46″long x 16″deep x 56″ tall.

During – before sanding & glazing – the glaze completely changes the color….I know, it looks fluorescent blue here!
After – Sorry for the glare – I am not a photographer, that’s for sure! I took the back panel off of the cabinet and replaced it with wainscoting, then glazed the wainscoting. I am still waiting on a new glass shelf that I ordered for the middle (the one that was there was broken) Yes, those Rachel Ray dishes are just sitting on the ledges :)….& now I finally can display some of my Fiestaware!
It looks so pretty with the light on at night!
