First I bought a cheap old hutch off of Kijiji (unfortunately they didn't measure the moulding...so we had to sand the sides until it fit into our space).
Not the preetiest thing ever. But potential!
Next we removed the side glass, hardware and gave it a spray painting.
Already it is a huge change. Next I need to install the screen on the two sides, put the hardware back on, recover the inside with something else...(stick on tile, shelf covering, tough fabric, not sure yet...). Then find some big branches or little tree's and plants.
So when I need to clean the floor area on that side, I risk birds flying out on the top. Not good! I wish he would have listened to me when constructing it (men! ugh). Peal and stick linoleum is great and cheap. I also use puppy pads at the bottom and pine shavings on top. That way when it's time to clean I just roll it all up and toss it. Reline and drop the new shavings. The whole process is done within minutes. That's a very nice hutch! I cant wait to see final pictures!
