Back in Sacramento, I purchased an old side table with Queen Anne Legs, I refinished it...but did't like it. When we moved to Minot, I saw the table with the rest of our stuff, but legs unattached without the bolts (movers had lost them)...well, what am I suppose to with them now?? Since I moved here, I have been in search of a great hutch...it could be an ordinary hutch but I just have to get my "fix."Besides, I can not purchase my dream hutch without breaking the bank, or driving very far. So, I purchased one from a fellow repurposer, who was getting rid of hers..It came in two pieces, bottom part (buffet) and a top part (hutch). Well, it just so happens she had purchased her hutch from the same exact person I had bought the Buffet table that is sitting in my living room...well, I had my best Minot girl see if she wanted to buy the bottom part (buffet) and I will buy the top part (hutch), thinking my buffet table and the hutch's table was exactly the same size...and...they were not!!!! My buffet table was WAY too big for it...so the hutch I had purchased with no bottoms sat in my garage for weeks. But my creative mind came through...why not attach the OLD Queen Anne legs with this hutch??? Could it be that I may just get my dream hutch after all? Easier said than done! So, I look for a carpenter on the yard sale site to execute the idea that's in my head! Well, it so happens that a new friend has a husband who happens to be an AMAZING carpenter! She responded to my post, and I was shocked. I knew she has so many projects for him too (you should see the entertainment center he build from scratch), and I felt really bad for asking. I met up with them, showed him my sketch....we talked..not really knowing if we understood each other because I was not sure if I made sense to him at all....But nonetheless, SHE IS FINISHED!!! Here she is....The "ZOBEL" Hutch...Now, I just got her and I haven't done anything to her yet...but I just could not wait to share it with all of you!!!!!
