2 Cabin Projects

Every time we go up to the cabin we leave with a list of things that we need to bring the next time we go up.  About a month ago we went up and realized we didn't have a single hook to hang coats on. So, I immediately got on Pinterest and found 2 rustic coat racks to make.   Both use railroad spikes for the hooks.  I am very pleased with how they both turned out.

The first coat rack now sits on the entry way.  Scott cut it out and put it together and I  distressed, painted and waxed it.  





The 2nd one is made out of a piece of reclaimed pine wood.  It was the perfect size.  I stained and waxed it and my Dad helped drill the holes in the spikes and attach them to the wood.  Right now it is hung up by the back door.  A perfect spot for the hot tub towels!

Very clever and well done. They compliment the cabin flavor nicely.

I almost don't want to look at your cabin because what I can see in the background is SO perfect! It's like you've taken all the best design ideas in my mind and pinterest and scooped them up and strung them all together and they are just perfect! Then I turn around and look at my home and sigh. Some day! Some day maybe I will be so cute. Like, the PERFECT shade of green. That table with the different textures of wood. LOVE!!
