Hello there!!
Hopefully, considering the gorgeous stuff you folk have created through repurposing/renovating items I would have thought was irreparable, I was hoping you could help me. I have decided to buy my husband some wine for his birthday, four days before xmas (it's the simplest thing I can get, a couple of bottles a month, and at least I know he'll like it!). We have a wine rack that holds five bottles and he is always bemoaning how small it is. So I thought I would add to his present by repurposing a small chest of drawers we have in the shed by taking out the inside, adding slotted sections on inside top to hang glasses from, adding a solid bottom and then I get stuck. Have no experience at woodwork, but my teenage son has promised to help, just we're not sure how to go about it. Any ideas???
