Altered Wine Box

This is what I started with.

For my project this month at Altered Eclectics was to make an altered  box to hold my paint brushes.  This is the old wooden wine holder I used for this project. 

After I sanded the box I painted it with gesso. I added some gears and metal pieces, the words brushes then painted the entire box with shades of copper.  I next added an antiquing solution to give the project a patina.
