The hutch from the dump

A few days ago I shared the treasures with you that I got for free at the dump. You can see that post HERE.

So, the hutch had a broken door and the upper backside had to be pulled out. It was pretty stinky and moldy, so there was definitely some heavy duty scrubbing involved.

Here is a remeinder of what it looked like before:


And then of course, there is always the after....
