Did you miss me…LOL? I’m back from a small blogging break, and it felt SO good to regroup and take a little breather. Resting is always good. I feel super reenergized, and I am back with some very exciting news. This news is something that I honestly never thought in a million years I would be blogging about. My hanging hutch DIY project was featured in the spring issue of Flea Market Home & Living. When I first started my blogging journey almost 2 years ago, I knew being in a magazine was a dream, but I honestly never thought it would actually happen. Guys, if you get anything from this post, I hope it is to work hard and never give up on your dreams. I know it sounds cliche, but it’s so true. This is the second magazine I have been featured in and it is all because I keep persevering through the good and the bad times. Never give up pursuing your DREAMS!!
Seriously, someone pinch me!!!
My project is in the ‘Found To Finished‘ section of the magazine which I LOVE. Showing projects before and after are my personal favorite. It is always fun to show the potential that old pieces have. I repurposed this old top hutch because I didn’t have room for a full hutch in my kitchen. I had a fun idea to turn this old and ugly top into a hanging hutch, and luckily, my idea actually worked!! This is one of my favorite DIY’s I have ever done!!
I always love decorating this piece. Here she is all ready for spring!!
I honestly can’t thank you guys enough for all the support you have given me over the past couple of years. You guys choosing to visit my blog is honestly a dream come true. Thank you for allowing me to share my home, projects, and successes along the way with you. You guys are amazing!! Thank you, thank you, THANK YOU!!

Your top half hutch came out SO lovely. Nice transformation and so useful. I also love to re purpose furniture and my tiny 570′ vintage farmhouse is filled with repurposed and up cycled furniture and decor. So fun to bring old items back to life and give them a whole new purpose. Your home is lovely. Many blessings and Happy Easter
