I’m trying to slowly make it around to the kids’ rooms to see what can help them get their rooms in order. Hailey didn’t have anything to hang hoodies, bags, belts, etc. so we came up with a quick, easy solution for behind the door -- under $10!
Pick up a 1X6 common pine board - this one was 6 ft long and only $3.68. They will cut it to the size you need.
Paint your board with leftover paint (this is some I had from the cart I painted on the porch)-- you could even use craft paint:
Then, we used some washi tape to cover the screws and brighten it up a little, add your hooks using a drill or a screwdriver. 
And there you go! Ready for action. Adding it to Under $10 Under 1 Hour projects
I stocked up on hooks because I know I will be using them in the closets, garage, pantry as we get this place organized!

ReplyDeleteYup. I have always been that person who has to explain " this is my thing"! Whether it is cooking, decorating, organizing or entertaining. It took me a loooonnnggg time to figure out it wasn't my problem, it was the other persons insecurities. I try not to take it personally ( sometimes I fail at this ). But I always stay true to myself
ReplyDeleteI like the ability to save more money when you 'stack' deals such as sale items, coupons, and now this Amex addition. It's great for the savvy shopper!
ReplyDeleteThat looks great! Just a word of warning on those hooks. I bought a bunch of those exact ones for my mudroom and a year later they are starting to break. I think the metal is just too thin. They also put holes through a couple of jackets (they are also kind of pointy). I would go for the other heftier $.88 cent hooks with the bulb on the ends. Hope this helps!
ReplyDeleteMelissa,
ReplyDeleteWhat a cute idea! Now that's my kind of DIY project! Easy, fast, cheap and super colorful. I might have to give this one a try!
Great tip, thanks!
ReplyDeleteGreat post, let us all shine and be the flowers that we are for all to enjoy!
ReplyDeleteI love that you can stack AmEx offers with other in store coupons.
