Its off to grandma's house we go!

With my new found enthusiasm and wanting to test out my "Paint Your Piece!" idea, I went in search of my first victim. I soon found her: my mother-in-law. She agreed to allow me to paint an old china hutch from the 1950's - my uneducated guess - that belonged to her mother. The whole thing was done in her dinning area where the hutch had been sitting. It took less than a day and was indeed transformed. The success built my cobfidence in the Paint Your Piece! concept. Here are the before, during, and after photos. 

What did I learn? First, that a one-day flip is possible, even though it took most of the day. Second, that flipping a piece in place is also do able.  And third, it's totally fun. What would I do differently?  I like how it turned out but I may have over - distressed a bit.
