Steps (9 steps, 120 minutes)

  1. 1

    20cm x 6cm wooden plank of 2cm thickness
    18cm x 8cm wooden plank of 2cm thickness

  2. 2

    Mark and drill 3 holes on wooden planks as shown. (Don't worry if you have never drilled before, its easy peasy job. Just follow the instructions on your drilling machine.)

  3. 3

    Using dry wall screws, screw the two wooden pieces together at the drilled holes.

  4. 4

    Glue the wooden casing in place using wood glue and secure it with 1 inch finishing nails.

  5. 5

    Sand the uneven edges with sand paper.

  6. 6

    Take it outdoor and prepare the place for paint. (Cover the place with old sheets or unused carton or garbage covers.) Spray the entire work piece with 2 coats of spray paint. (Follow instructions on your spray paint)

  7. 7

    Let the paint dry completely. Space the coat hooks evenly and mark the spots to drill. Now drill and screw the hooks in place.

  8. 8

    Add the sawtooth hangers or key hole hangers to the back of coat rack and hang it on the wall.

  9. 9

    Put photo frames, small vases or candles on the shelf to decorate it :) I used this beautiful candle votive. Isn't it a great way to both organize and decorate your entry way.
