super cute coat rack - inexpensive and simple!

This is a very simple, easy, unfinished coat rack from Walmart.  You can find it here for $9.97 but most Walmarts carry them in store.  Side Note: We make things so complicated when simple is often best!  This coat rack  included 2 nice long screws to mount it to the wall.  It's sturdy and just what I was looking for.  My office has walnut stained baseboards and I have a bookcase with the same finish.  I wanted to bring that walnut wood element to the other side of my office and this was PERFECT.

Here's what I did.  My only expense for this project was the rack itself.  I had everything else already.  I bet you have a lot of things laying around the house that you can use for projects like this.  As you can tell, that paint brush has seen some better days.  haha!
SUPPLIES
  • Coat rack
  • Stain or paint of your choice
  • Paint brush
  • Drop cloth
  • Drying cloth
  • Gloves

 I made sure to shake the stain thoroughly.  I made sure the door was open before I began this so I had fresh air coming in.  I evaluated the coat rack.  It did not require sanding so I got to skip that step.  I put my gloves on, opened my stain and applied about 3 coats to get it to the finish I wanted.  After each coat, I wiped off any excess so that the stain didn't pool and leave weird spots on the rack. 

​I let it dry thoroughly before I placed it on the wall.  I used a level to make sure it was evenly hung.  That's it!  D-O-N-E.  I hope you'll give something like this a try!
