DIY Wall Coat Rack
Do you hate falling over your kids jackets and bags when you walk into your house? Check out this DIY Wall Coat Rack my husband and I made together for less than $7!
Yes, I made the bag too!
Our neighbor was able to score some great wooden pallets for a few DIY projects she had going on at her house. We were thrilled when she allowed us to take off with one.
Taking the pallet apart proved to be more difficult than we thought. We were trying to preserve the rustic nails on each to reuse for extra hanging support. We succeeded, but only after breaking two of our top choice boards. For other projects my husband has resorted to cutting the boards off with a skill saw instead. Those nails look great up close but really weren’t worth all that effort and damage.
After we removed the board, I marked the location of each knob with a sharpie so he could drill the holes for me. (He is so sweet! Love it when he does all the hard stuff for me!)
Once he finished drilling the holes, I attempted to put the knobs on and he took over again… (Yes, we totally did this project together…. can’t you tell?)Â Okay, so I at least got to pick the placement of the knobs and the placement on the wall… he did the rest. All under my supervision, of course. (smile)
We completed this project for less than $7!
Each of the knobs were less than one dollar each, except for the one in the middle that I splurged on for almost three bucks!
What is your favorite DIY project you and your spouse have completed together?
I know what you mean. I hate seeing jackets draped over every chair in the house. My husband put a coat rack up. It does help.
I love this idea and I could use an inexpensive coat rack for my home. Thank you for sharing.
I could really use a coat rack like this. And at only $7 and fairly easy instructions is awesome! Thanks!
This is exactly what I need, Thank you for sharing. I can’t wait to get started so we can use it.
This is really cute!!! I’d say the most creative use of crates, etc. was when we were newly weds, we had a spool table, and make shelves out of crates. It was fun we couldn’t afford much!
This is a great idea! I need to make two of them. I need one in the house and one in the garage. Thank you for sharing this!
what a great idea to make your own. I love the rustic look
I love that you used different knobs for this. It looks simple to make and would look great in my home. 🙂
I love seeing pallets used today. YEARS ago our company could not give them away today people want them. This would be so cool with old vintage hooks or handles. GREAT IDEAL
This looks so nice. I really like that you used different pieces for the hooks and handles.
This is such a cute DIY coat rack! I am definitely going to have to do something like this when we move into our new house. Thank you so much for sharing!
This is so cute and a great way to use up any bits and pieces left around the home. I’d love to make one of these for my entryway.
Nice, could fix my own coat rack and modify it.. cool idea
Great idea, it looks really cute
I would love to make one of these for my mom!
I really love this! We were blessed that our house came with cubbies by the back door.
Great way to repurpose wood and random leftover knobs from other projects. Maybe check out your local Habitat for Humanity store if you need any parts.
Great project. This is a very nice coat rack!
I love the look of this and it’s such a good way to reuse things that would otherwise be thrown away.
This is so neat! I love doing things like this! Thanks for sharing!
We don’t have anywhere to put one in the house we are in, but when we move I am going to do this! It’s so cute and you can easily make it your own! I love the price!!
I really like this!
I would love to make a variety of these for all my hats
I like the idea of creating a coat rack for under $7. My brother once made a light fixture using a pallet.
Looks good!
