Once upon a time, I came across this fantastic, yet ugly wine rack at a thrift store. It was made of outdated blonde wood and a bit wobbly. It was definitely old.... but not a
good old. Nevertheless, I thought it had some great potential and I got a good deal on it. What it lacked in vintage charm, it made up for in price and potential.
I got to work on it, finishing it in our vintage cream color, distressing the heck out of it and glazing with a dark, chocolate brown. To really bring it to the next level and create patina where there was none, I added the wainscoting to the sides and it was the perfect touch. I love how the dark glaze highlights the grooves of the wainscoting. Very cottage chic!

The lovely couple that picked it up is using it to furnish their cottage vacation home on a lake so it is a perfect fit!
Enjoy!
