HOME OF THE TOMCATS

HOME OF THE TOMCATS, Our One Room Schoolhouse We Designed & Had to Leave

Oh, that beautiful blue hutch. Our goal with this beauty was to make it look as if it were a built-in in the space, without actually being a built-in. For an even more cohesive look we added bead board to the bottom doors, cleaned up the drawer pulls and added new hardware on the piece. To fit in with our color drenching plan for this room we chose a very similar color to the rest of the space for the new color of the hutch, Marquee Behr Paint, Submarine Gray, from the Home Depot. To style her I utilized a combination from our collection of picked items using different textures, finishes, styles and colors to feel wise and collected, but also create a natural feeling of a lived in space. Just like we wanted. Displayed with scores of cake stands and glass domes, Jesus busts mixed in with some of my loved devotionals and bibles. Vintage bundt pans, an array of pitchers and vases, along with other unique finds was a solid yes for me. I was quite pleased with how it turned out—although by time we got to photographing (years in the making), she was quite chippy. For all the details on this hutch, the space it was created for, and the stories behind it, check out “A Nantucket Inspired Dining Room”, on the blog.

May JOY fill your home no matter what, as a choice in your heart of what God has done. “Finally, brothers, whatever is true, whatever is honorable, whatever is just, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is commendable, if there is any excellence, if there is anything worthy of praise, think about these things.” Philippians‬ ‭4‬:‭8‬ Gratitude, a lovely thing to live by. Find the good, and live life while we have it, even in hardship—endure, for the HOPE of sweet Jesus brings such peace & strength. Much love, Curee Family 💛
