I have an idea what most of you will guess I am building, but I hope you'll be surprised in the end. In the meantime, I can share the furnishings I build along the way.

I started with a Daisy House Wall Hutch kit. I had bought this for the Newport kitchen so I could display fancy plates and such but never ended up finishing that room before it sold.

Space will be minimal in my kitchen, so this shelf is perfect at 11/16" deep. There is plenty of room for plates, bottles and even food as long as the depth is thin. The silver platter and bottle were purchased, but I don't recall where. The windmill plate is by Peiwen Petitgrand. I just love the detailing.

I opted for blue, which I mixed myself from Slate Green by Americana and French Ultramarine Blue by Liquitex since I didn't have a good blue on hand. I buffed the paint away in areas to add a little character and then sealed the piece with Delta Ceramcoat satin varnish.
