Many of you know how craigslist crazy Miles and I are.  I really think craigslist is great, it is the ultimate form of recycling.  It is what communities are suppose to do, one man's garbage is another man's treasure... only without the garbage part.

So anyway, I have wanted a china hutch ever since Miles and I got married, but it always got pushed to the back burner of our budget. Well for Christmas I got some money from my parents and I deemed it my "hutch fund."  The search began on craigslist, and man o man, let me tell you, there are some UGLY hutches on craigslist! But last weekend I stumbled across this one and after going to look at it with our cousin Cory, Miles and I went back and picked it up the next day. We paid a third of what it probably cost in the store and it is in AMAZING shape.

It took me no time at all to clean it and put all our china and such in it. I played with the arrangement and I think that I like this one the best. It looks really good in our dinning room also!

There were/ are two parts of the hutch that I was/ am not crazy about. #1 There was a decorative top piece that Miles took off and #2 The hardware pulls. I think that with a little investigation and some work on the internet I will be able to find replacements that will fit the existing holes. When I do I'll post pictures of the new and improved hutch. For now though we are stuck with miniature Arabian perfume containers for door pulls.
