Once again (as in my last CSI entry), visitors’ questions pointed me to what I could enter. My guests bent over to investigate the feet of the coat rack my husband built for me. They were surprised to see how we’d used bookshelf brackets for feet and a balcony post for the body!
This was definitely one of those long awaited projects to be completed. Years back, we’d found these great metal shelf brackets and hooks—can’t remember where, sorry! We were thrilled that they fit so well on a balcony post from a discount hardware store! All the pieces were shipped over with our stuff to Germany. My husband cut the ends down, stained the post, and assembled it there. He still wants to find a post topper for it the next time we’re in America.
It has lived up to its potential holding a gob of coats through the winter, and now we can see it/enjoy it a bit more in this season!
Oh it's gorgeous, i love it! Thanks so much for stopping by, glad you did! Enjoy your day!
