Covid19 has affected the locals in ways I never would have imagined. Prior to Covid I would try and buy wooden wine crates at Total Wine with limited success. Now they have so many the store rack is full!
So crafting is always an exploration... and on this first attempt I used an Old Masters stain plus a pre-cat lacquer matt finish...
Did you know Hobby Lobby has some great additions to accent your wine crate? I added metal corners and latch on this one. This also has a pre-cat lacquer matt finish...
With my third attempt I used a blended gel stain with semi-gloss lacquer by Mohawk. And I built a top tray that worked out for my first attempt at building a pull out tray.
