We were able to go get our hutch yesterday afternoon and we are SO.IN.LOVE! I have looked at these hutches for years at Canton and I can’t believe we actually have one now. We bought it from “The Noble House” in the Arbors at Canton. They don’t have a website, so I can’t link up. But, they have smaller and larger ones if you are interested. They even have islands available. They come in black, antique white, red, and couple of other colors. None of them are the same. They are made by a man up north (Ohio, Iowa, Idaho,…not sure which) that gets all his materials from old homes being torn down, remodeled, etc. The people that own The Noble House make monthly trips there to restock. They have also recently opened a store next to LaurieAnna’s Vintage Home in Canton.
Here’s our hutch…
I haven’t really done much “decorating”. I washed all the white plates I have been gathering up over the last few months (for the plate wall) and put some inside the glass and stacked some up simply to have a place to put them and not have them on the kitchen counter. I kind of like the look of having some of them displayed in the glass. I am sure there will be lots of switching around in/on the hutch in the next month or so. I also had found a couple of old scales and just love how they look!
From afar with the table. Pardon the junk on the table-just being real!
A {major} decision I have been really struggling with is our bedroom lamps. I have seriously looked for the last few months everywhere I go to see if something stands out to me. Nothing. I finally picked up these two silver lamp bases at Wal-Mart. Pretty exciting huh? I decided I really actually like them. But, now I am struggling with the shades.
Left to right (burlap-Target, darker linen-Wal-Mart, lighter linen-local resale shop)
I really like the lighter linen the best. I think. Especially for $5. But, guess what-I only have one! She did have another one that she was selling with a lamp that I might could talk her out of if she still has it-which is doubtful. In this picture, the middle one doesn’t look so bad, but in person I feel like it just blends in and doesn’t look that great. So, I guess I really like the burlap one the best and of course it is the most expensive shade.
I just can’t make myself commit yet and take the plastic off. Just in case.
Now, last but not least-OXO Pop Containers! Do you have any of these?
I found them at TJ Maxx and love them. I have since seen them at Ross, Target, and The Container Store. I am sure you can get them pretty much anywhere, but I have found that TJ Maxx has the best prices on them. They are still a little pricey but well worth it! They have a push mechanism that makes them seal airtight.
I am all about making things look neat and organized and these did just that! Now, I can’t wait to talk my MIL into letting me borrow her Circuit machine so I can cut out some vinyl and get to labeling my pop containers!
