I have this well made wine rack I came across next to dumpster. I had to take it home because I know there's potential for it to be something awesome. I just need a little help with some ideas. anyone?
I have two ideas...1. if you can drive to Glendora , go to Knott to Shabby....Michael will mk it look unreal , you pick the color....if you can Shabby Chic your self
get milk paint and do it your self...then you can use in bathroom and roll up towels for guest or ? the best towels are walmarts cheaper ones..they are not as thick....I like red....I would also shabby chic it destressed red and use it as a wine holder, even if u don't drink...it looks big.....put it by a front door for looks....put pillows on top and shoes bottom or ?
I love it... last sell it to me..??lol
You could lay it flat, put a piece of plywood on the new "bottom", add some legs to it, then a glass piece on the new "top", and have a nice coffee table with storage inside.
Thank you so much!! These are all great ideas. keep 'em coming please! I would LOVE to have a need for such an awesome wine rack. I would totally sand it and refinish it but much to my dismay, wine doesn't always agree with me, which is why I need to repurpose it. It's SO sturdy!! The bathroom towel holder sound great and the bee hotel has interest picqued!
i like the coffee table idea...take it a step further...shadow box it..do her idea but before putting glass put in memories keepsakes...is there a grand prize winner... LOL kidding oh yeah...shabby chic it...post pictures when u complete...
What about some kind of vertical garden? If you turned it on its side (so that it's a diamond with a cross) and hung it near a patio, you could put small potted plants inside.

Your comment...
If I had it I would paint it off white and hang it in the bathroom, then roll-fold towels and use it for towel storage.
Without much change it could be a great 3-d photo frame. Paint it a dramatic color, put pictures different depths back, and hang.

I think its still a very nice wine rack! Just needs a clean up and new coat of dark stain varnish - plus a load of wine bottles stacked up in it ;-)

You could clean it up, paint it, and use it in a walkin closet for rolled t-shirts and the like.
