Winter Whites to Go


I have been moving things around and changing some color schemes in my
cottage.  First, I painted the old blue hutch in the kitchen a barn red.  While I liked
the color very much, I decided that it was too dark for the room, so I am
in the process of painting it white.  I removed everything from the shelves because
even though many items are thrift shop finds, they are special to me.



I had fun grouping items in a big wicker basket and was enjoying
the different textures of the whites, so ...



I am still painting the hutch because I got distracted.  Does that ever 
happen to you?


Bentley ~ it was snowing this morning and it's raining now.
Funny weather for January.

Hugs,
Susan and Bentley

  7. Distraction is my middle name. Or is it procrastination?? One of those big words. Hope you show us the finished hutch!
