Starsky & The Hutch

Here's that long overdue picture of the hutch we refinished late last year.

Amy found it at a consignment shop. We brought it home. I stripped the more ornamental doo-dad-like touches, sanded off the glossy wood shine (think of a Pledge-huffing Grandma gone nuts with that oily crap... for years) and we got down to work on it.

Finished it off with several coats of paint, new knobs and pulls, and replacing the backing with much more attractive beadboard. We were pretty pleased with how it came out.

Next up: The bedroom. Project starts Wednesday.
