    Here I have a wonderful solid rock maple set. The finish is Maplelux using 100% Du pont Dulux.
    This hutch will eventually house my Pyrex collections and several of my rooster pieces. I plan to hand paint a few new pieces as well.
    I just love the folding table. It has butterfly wings that slide out to the side and hold up the drop sides of the table.
    The leaves hang on hinges at each side of the table. When they are not needed for the table top surface, they can be dropped down out of the way.
    These solid rock maple pieces are good quality, solid, heavy and very durable.
    I am SO amazed how sturdy they are.
    The table also has a center leaf insert. It's a huge circular table when fully extended. Easily seats 8 with plenty of elbow room. It did not come with chairs. Though that doesn't matter to me, because I'm using my rooster chairs with it.
    I still have to give them a thorough cleaning. I'll update the photos after I have them setup.
    The hutch has so many neat drawers. The largest has removable wood dividers, I believe its for storing silverware. It also had green felt lining the bottom. I removed it because it needs to be cleaned.
    I love this set so much. I think I received a great deal on it as well.

      What a lovely home you have Aim. I love the kitchen dresser!

      Thank you VF xo
      The kitchen use to be our carport. I designed it, and the Hubster built it. I helped lay the floor title (while 9 months pregnant) I was very determined to have the house ready for our baby.

      Hi WS xo thanks so much, they're definitely my newest loves.
      Hi AR :) I'm not sure exactly how I'm going to do it, but they'll probably end up inside and the roosters on display. I so love my chics.
      Hi Doc, thank you :)
      I was so worried the set would sell before I was able to pick it up. (The Hubster schedule conflicted.) They had been advertised for 28 days when I found the ad. Then it took almost two weeks before I was finally able to pick it up. Luckily it was a young guy selling it, he helped load it, but guess who had to help unload LoL That table feels like it weighs 100 pounds!

      A pair of great pieces there. Eager to see everything when it is filled. I need a table like that because there isn't enigh room in my dining area.
      My internet goes out when it rains so I may disappear for a few days.

      Hiya Fort :D thanks so much for the kind words. It's always great to hear from you. I have the same issue in my dining room and living room. They're shaped long but not very wide. I call them the bowling lane rooms ;)
      I've kinda taken on too many collections at once. Now I have to figure out which is going where. I'm thinking about doing as WS said and put the depression glass in the cabinets in my living room. That would mean my tea sets will have to go into the dinning room. I'll sort it out eventually... I hope.

      I filled it with as much pyrex as I could, then I updated the photos. I don't know exactly how the top will end up, most of my rooster decor was packed up when the basement flooded.

      Thanks so much for the love...

      "I don't know exactly how the top will end up"....... I know, FULL :-)
    16. Aimathena Aimathena, 11 years ago
      LoL WS, No. It's a lil too full for me now as it is. I don't want it to look cluttered.
    17. walksoftly walksoftly, 11 years ago
      There's only one option then, you need another hutch! :-)
    18. Aimathena Aimathena, 11 years ago
      LmBoOoOo, I already have my eye on its sibling. Might have to wait due to price.
