Old Door Becomes a New Wine Rack

I've seen a lot of door upcycles, but I've never seen one like this before. My husband told me I wasn't allowed to buy anymore doors, but when I found this clever idea I couldn't resist. When I brought it home I told him it wasn't a door - It was a wine rack that looked suspiciously like a door - she just needed some sprucing up.
I wish I could claim credit for the idea, but i bought this at a garage sale for $6 with the holes already drilled.
After I had my first three color layers down I started again only a little less paint in my dry brush and this time highlighting the corners. Once I repeated the three layers again I did a layer with crackle medium and then a toned down aqua layer, this time with "Celery, Agave, Hazelnut and Cashew" since the first layer was a little too of a bright blue and I wanted more of a faded aged look.
I couldn't believe how easy dry brushing was and can't wait to use this technique on other projects.
