~ The Boat Project ~
"From junk to junk"
One of the latest projects at hutch studio is a large wooden boat for the center room. Pictured above is a collage of the rough idea. The biggest difference is ours will be much more fun in appearance.
As luck would have it we just so happened to have this old wooden boat buried in our shed. We pulled it out and popped it on a table at the back of the studio. Some of the color will work but a few cosmetic changes are in order.
The old chipping white paint on the hull is great but we need a bit of red. The periwinkle blue trim was changed out for an aqua blue.
The ships wheel needed some repairs. I'm happy to say it turns again.
The deck and cabin roof were painted a wood tone. It will be a bit warmer than the periwinkle and green of before.
So watch for the next stage of the boat project... It's definitely a fun one.
