Hello World! If you remember, we recently moved the china hutch upstairs to provide extra storage for the Master Bathroom. It is working out fabulously! After the last post went live, my sweet friend, Michele who blogs at The Nest at Finch Rest suggested that I get a basket to house my plethora of lotions. That’s what I love about blogging. We have such a great community of guys and gals that help us and encourage us! I didn’t even notice how much they stuck out! Here is a picture of the lotions before I found them new housing.
See what I mean!
So, the other day I was in Target (shock) and found this.
There is a leather handle on both sides of the box.
Nosey Cozi wanting to jump in the box. What is it with cats and boxes?
Here they are in the hutch. One box houses my lotions and the other houses all of our extras such as toothpaste, razors, floss, toothbrushes…etc.
The box is deep enough so that I’m able to place the lotions inside standing up. The handle makes it easy to slide the box out when I want a different lotion for the day.
Cozi is my little companion. She follows me around the house and is always close by. This is what she was doing while I took photos. Crazy cat.
The boxes can be found at Target. They are manufactured by Threshold and are called Large Lidded Milk Crate with Vintage Handles. They are more expensive online. Fortunately my Target had them on sale and I used my Target card to save and extra 5%.
What do you think of my hutch additions? Hey, don’t forget, starting in March Before & After Wednesday and Anything Blue Friday will be back on the party schedule! Start looking through your posts for projects, decor, diy, crafts and anything with a before & after to share as well as blue for the blue party! I’m excited to see what you sweets bring to the parties.

Have a glorious evening! Go with God and remember to be kind to one another!
Toodles,
Looks beautiful and very practical. Love the look too. I adore China cabinets for books, collectibles , and storage. They always look great. Your cat is adorable too. She wants a box too!
Peggy, it’s funny…every time I open the cabinet, Cozi the cat desperately wants to jump in and inspect the boxes. I might just have to buy one for her! LOL Thank you for stopping by and for the kind words!
I hadn’t noticed that the lotions ‘stuck out’ until you mentionned it – and of course a basket is a good idea! I like your lidded box better though – a great solution.
Thank you so much! It’s so funny how we don’t notice something until a friend points it out! I’m so glad she did! Thanks for stopping by!
Kathryn,
I l o v e your newest additions to your linen china hutch, dear friend!
Miss cozi is adorable!
Fondly,
Pat
Thank you, dear Pat! I think little Cozi might need to have a box of her own. Happy Sunday to you!
Love seeing your cat in your photos. Smart move to add the cabinet for storage. love it. And, really looking forward to the Wed, Before and After Party.
Thank you so much! I’m pretty excited about bringing back Before & After Wed as well as Anything Blue Fri. Have a lovely Sunday!
Cats always know how to steal the show, don’t they?
So true! Thanks for stopping by!
