I want to show you my new favorite addition to Kayla’s room. I got this free hutch from a friend…thanks Carrie!
It was an Ethan Allen hutch that no longer fit in with her decor. Well my inspiration was a $119 Catalina Book Rack from Pottery Barn Kids.
I started by unscrewing the little feet it had on the bottom…
I then flipped it the whole hutch upside down and cut a board for the top to act as a shelf.
To cover up the rough edge I cut some molding to fit and filled the holes with wood filler.
I measured three descending holes and using a 1/2” drill bit and my electric drill I made three holes making sure to not drill through the other side.
I cut 1/2” dowel rods to size and bent them a little to fit them into the holes I drilled. I added books to make sure they all fit…so far, so good!
A little primer, a little paint and she was ready to be hung in my baby girl’s room.
I feel like it was the missing piece in her room. Is it awful that I am already planning her big girl room?
