Lamp Black Hutch

"This piece came to me as quite a mess... the wallpaper inside the hutch would have been a big hurdle on its own but include that with the 5 layers of paint underneath it, the random can lid that was permanently adhered inside the lower cabinet and the tacks on almost every shelf under all the paint. I didn't really know what I was getting into but I got into it pretty darn quick. It took over two weeks of sanding, peeling wallpaper, scraping chemicals off on repeat to get it to a point that we could finish it up! Painted in General Finishes Lamp Black and the inside is stained in a custom mix of General Finishes American Oak, Ash Gray and Antique Walnut Gel Stains. Finally the entire piece was clear coated for lasting protection and the original hardware was put back on! I do not think I am exaggerating when I say this was probably the hardest piece I ever worked on but I am so proud of the final look!" - Upcycling by Amy
