I was minding my own business!!

While running an errend I saw a sign that said FREE!! I love signs that say FREE!! We (my brother's GF and I) polked around the free pile and then saw a trailer that was laden w/ old cool stuff ready for the dump GASSSSP!! I marched right up to the door and asked if I could have a look see. The answer...yes!! I love when the answer is YES!!

I noticed this beauty polking out of the garage. BEAUTIFUL!! I asked if she would sell...she said yes! I made an offer of 20.00 she said YESSSS again!!

**Looks like someone cut off the top of this baby. What needs to be added to restore it?












Here are a few other things I brough home! Cami can you see the horse picture? Does Mason need it for his room? (Vintage horse paint by number!!)

Holy cow, that hutch is awesome! Great, huge, mega find. Not sure what the top would have looked like though????

Jealous!
I would think some simple crown at the top would finish this off nicely!

If Cami is not interested in the horse paint by number, I might be interested in making you an offer... :D

Cami's son Mason (who is one) really wanted it for his room. I'll look for another one Late Bloomers!

If I brought that home I would be just crowing with delight and look of horror on my family's faces would be priceless. I always brake for stuff left by the trash.I'm totally jealous of your wonderful hutch.

What an absolute wonderful piece! You can't beat $20.00. I love finding what other people think is junk because you get such a great price for it. You're a lucky lady!
