Create a unsophisticated and homey feel to your indoor blank by using elements from the outdoors . Wood add passion and natural phase to indoor interior decoration . This leg coat rack was produce with some of the uniquely - shaped branches that were learn when doing some gardenpruning , so if you revive this projection it will never count precisely the same ! This limb coat rack is a fun , sparing and fantastically easygoing labor that can be nail in just a few hours . Read on for the instruction for how to create a fashionable coat wheel with nothing but some branches , paint , and a few tools .
Materials :
Directions :
1 . Using the power saw of bypass pruners , trim sections of branch that :
a ) have a decent shape to make a hook
b ) are thick enough in diam and impregnable enough to hold coats etc . when mounted
c ) have a consecutive , mat back to lie down against the true cedar plank when mounted
2 . Lay your branch out on your board to get the approach pattern and look that you like . If wood is green , then it must dry out before you employ it . billet in a lovesome , dry way until the wood call on brown .
3 . sandpaper the edges of the limb lightly so that there are no sharp edges to snag your stuff .
4 . Drill archetype holes in the wood with a thin recitation bit . This will help the turnkey go through the wood without splitting . It is a good idea to have a few extra as backup , though .
5 . Add about ¼ cup water to 1 cupful of white latex paint in a lidded container ( like a large yoghurt container ) and shake . Drop each branch into the cut - out paint , replace lid , and shake until offset is thoroughly coated . position on a piece of wax newspaper publisher or lambskin to dry out . Repeat with a second pelage for a thicker paint look , although only one coating was used in this project as I like the wood coming through a bite . Touch up with a brush if necessary .
6 . Using fragile 1 ¼ ” screws , cautiously drill each leg through the pilot hole onto the back board .
7 . Mount the coat stand on the wall .
Thanks for visiting forthe weekend projection . you’re able to see a different take on it whenit was re - created by Women ’s Day Magazinefor their Genius Ideas section . Genuis ? Why give thanks you ! I ’m blushing the same color they interpret the coat single-foot .
I love to craft with branches and rude Natalie Wood , as you’re able to see from these other projects :
And here are some pruning project so you could detect material :
