Why We Built this Deep Console Table with Hutch
My dear friend Jen Woodhouse from House of Wood loved this discontinued foyer console table from Pottery Barn .... 
Jen wanted something a tiny bit fancier, by adding turned legs to the base ...
Oh. My.
Goodness. How beautiful is this!!! If you are going to make something, you might as well make something awesome, right?

Please read through the entire plan and all comments before beginning this project. It is also advisable to review the Getting Started Section. Take all necessary precautions to build safely and smartly. Work on a clean level surface, free of imperfections or debris. Always use straight boards. Check for square after each step. Always predrill holes before attaching with screws. Use glue with finish nails for a stronger hold. Wipe excess glue off bare wood for stained projects, as dried glue will not take stain. Be safe, have fun, and ask for help if you need it. Good luck!

It is always recommended to apply a test coat on a hidden area or scrap piece to ensure color evenness and adhesion. Use primer or wood conditioner as needed.
