I think the hutch base is perfect for your nice original pantry. We had a very large laundry room so I made one half a pantry with cupboards above with glass and nickel latches. The counter below is used so often especially during parties. My husband also built three large drawers below and a pull out curtained area for the cat litter.<br />I finally have my pantry!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16369110147899267523noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5072219918314541508.post-78762047566645868062010-05-10T15:59:28.679-04:002010-05-10T15:59:28.679-04:00I think it is going to look fabulous.

You have a great idea for that counter, it is going to open your kitchen space up so much. I also love the soapstone counter tops. How do you like them? I am going to be doing my kitchen counter tops soon. Whenever I mention anything besides granite, Mr. Journal starts to grumble.<br /><br />Your crepes look wonderful (in my mind!!).
