Secretary Hutch Make Over

It still needs to be painted one more coat and the final touch up by the appliques area.
Oh! and the nobs needs to be replaced with the one
I bought from the Bella Cottage last week.

I want to put some appliques on the hutch molding area on top.
I went to the Bella Cottage yesterday to get some more appliques,
but I missed her by 4 minutes. She leaves at 5:00pm on Fridays.
I guess I have to put this project on hold until next Tuesday. :(
This flying angel is actually not an appliques.
It is made of plastic and they are used for wedding decorations.
However I painted and glued them on the hutch.
Aren't they gorgeous?
Those angles were a dozen for a dollar! It is way cheaper than the appliques.
Thanks to Esther!! It was my friend Esther's idea. :D


I would say.... my secretary hutch make over is about 70% completed.
