DIY Jute Ribbon Coat Rack

Oh yes you can!

Remember that old cypress I told y'all about? Well here it is and I'm fixing to make it sing! Now if you don't happen to have old cypress just hanging out at your house that's OK too. Just get yourself a plank of wood...any kind will do. You can stain it to age it a bit if you would like. You can even give it a good white washing. That's what I plan on doing with my next one.

I found this great Jute ribbon at Walmart but any kind of heavy duty ribbon should work.

I cut my edges and gave them a bit of a fluff'in....you know...aged look.

I used wood glue here and it worked great!

I use these hooks for the backs of all of my projects and they work very well. You can get them at any hardware store...and again WalMart has them too.

This is what they look like.

I then laid out my hooks where they should go. You can find hooks just about anywhere. Our Wal Mart even has a few. I bought these at my favorite store in Baton Rouge... love em"

Inspired? The joy of making something with your own hands is Awesome! Try It!


{To help fund my DIY Projects and keep them coming,I have this coat rack for sale in my Etsy. If I held tight to every project we make here I would have to send a few children packing to their Grandparents home. So I guess I will keep the kids and sell the projects...smile! If it sells and you would like one just let me know.
