Yes, I am the nut perusing the wood section of the thrift store like a sleuth looking for diamonds. They are, after all "diamonds in the rough", right? I'm sure many passed this fruity shelf up, but I saw a fun project just waiting. I plan to turn this into an upcycled farmhouse coat rack. Do you see it? Upcycled Thrift Store Shelf Before | prodigalpieces.com Okay, so I'll admit that the food carving on the front wasn't that bad, but it had that "Made in .... " look to it. The faux dental molding was kinda meh, and I saw the potential for added function. I was kinda like...let's change it up! Wooden Shelf Before Makeover by Larissa of Prodigal Pieces | prodigalpieces.com First, I dug into my stash to find a piece of beadboard that would allow me to cover up the food. I've created a video tutorial for those of you who like to have a live visual (see below). I know it helps me at times too. Scrap BeadBoard for DIY project | prodigalpieces.com

DIY TIME

I cut it to size using my jigsaw. The key was to set my jigsaw blade at an angle when I made the bottom cut so that the bottom edge wouldn't stick out bluntly. Ryobi Jigsaw Set on Angle Cut | prodigalpieces.com Once it was cut, I sanded it down with my sander. I love these battery-operated tools! Sanding Beadboard with Corner Cat Sander | prodigalpieces.com Next, I used my panel adhesive to add a bead on the back and attached the panel to the front with my nailer. I demonstrate it in the video below. Once that was done, I wanted to make my upcycled farmhouse coat rack look cohesive. Of course, paint works wonders, so I used my paint brush to give a few coats of paint. Painting Upcycled Coat Rack by Prodigal Pieces | prodigalpieces.com And, what is a coat rack without hooks, right? I've had many tell me they have a hard time getting hooks spaced right, so I'm sharing how to do it. First, figure out where you want your outer hooks to be placed. I chose to bring mine 2" in from each end. How to Mount Coat Hooks | prodigalpieces.com

NEXT STEPS

Then, using my pencil, I mark the holes and pre-drill pilot holes using my drill. It's best to use a drill bit slightly smaller than your shank of your screws. With that in mind, we pre-drill to prevent the wood from splitting as well as making our hook placement much easier. Pre-Drilling Holes for Upcycled Farmhouse Coat Rack | prodigalpieces.com prodigalpieces Next, measure between your two outer hooks. Measure Between Hooks | prodigalpieces.com Last, take that measurement and divide it by the number of spaces you will have to fill. For instance, I wanted to add two more hooks, so that would create 3 spaces between the outer two hooks. DIY Hook Placement Diagram for Coat or Towel Rack by Prodigal Pieces | prodigalpieces.com prodigalpieces diy handmade home homedecor homedecorideas One other thing I needed to add were some keyhole hangers. You could also route them in with a keyhole router bit, but I chose to use my hardware instead. Unfortunately, the keyholes that were already on the back were chewed up and no longer functional.

Hi Larissa, Another wonderful #trashure. I'm always happy to see your creations I really like how the beadbord transforms this shelf. I use the same method as you to place hooks but with an extra step . I will try to be clear ;). I measure the width of a hook and if I have two hook to add, I multiply it by two. Then I substract this value to the measure of the space between hooks already screwed and I divide by 3. The result is the value of the space between each hook. After that no more mesurement required, I just have to cut a cut-off to the right size an place it between each hook to fix them. Easy peasy as you would say ;) Have a very good day Mathieu

Wow! Love the transformation of the coat rack with the bead board & the color. The hooks are wonderful too! This makes me want to transform something. I will have to look through my stash & see what I can come up with. You are an inspiration!

Love a coat rack and you did a great job. Had one at old house but no place for one in this house since so small of an entrance. Think I will add similar one to back door going into garage.

Ido love your piece, Larissa! My first project would be a small bench I've had 4-ever! It's got plenty of nicks, scratches and ugly painted flowers on it. I could turn that bench into something really pretty and useful!

First I would use the bag to shop for paint & stain. I have a side table with spindle legs that needs to be made over. I would use the sander to ready the top for stain & the round brush to paint the legs. Then when I’m done I will enjoy a cup of coffee in my trashure mug.
