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?
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!
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.
*post contains affiliate links so you can find the products I love to use too. (see full disclosure)
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.
Once it was cut, I sanded it down with my Corner Cat. I love these battery-operated tools!
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 Fan Brush to give a few coats of paint.
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. You can find these antique brass hooks HERE. (there are other finishes too)
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. We pre-drill to prevent the wood from splitting as well as making our hook placement much easier.
Next, measure between your two outer hooks.
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.
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.
REVEAL TIME
Now our upcycled farmhouse coat rack (or towel rack) is done and ready for a new function with style.
The shelf can be used for vignettes or daily-grind drop off. Meanwhile, the hooks sure do add more function that that food did. haha!!
As usual, my goal is to inspire you to maybe shop your home for items that could use a new look and use. Or maybe even head out for a thrift shopping spree to create your home story.
Now, just for fun, I took two oddly long cupboard doors from my cupboard-door-stash-to-end-all-stashes and also made them into coat racks. It was as simple as adding hooks and hanging hardware.
MORE FUN
One is in the rustic raw wood finish…
…while the other is a weathered gray. I’d say they look like they were meant to be, wouldn’t you?
I had fun recreating these unwanted wooden goodies and hope you had fun too. All these coat/towel racks are available in my online shop (white and long rack (All SOLD) for purchase.

Love tje look where do you get those hooks ? Ive found similiar but they were tiny
January 29, 2019 at 5:23 amThanks! I have links to both the brass and black in my post. These are the perfect size for me. 😀
January 29, 2019 at 5:28 amLove the looks of your new hanging coat / hat rack.
January 29, 2019 at 5:26 amI have a few items that needs sanding including a book shelf unit that my daughter gave me that I want to do for our new great grand daughter to display her books on. Using the palm sander would make it so much easier than using up sheets of sand paper.
Thank you for this super giveaway opportunity
Fun to hear – thanks! Yes, the sander is a blessing beyond words. You will love it! 😀

January 29, 2019 at 5:30 amThank you for finding that error…fixed it! 😀 Let me know if you have any issues.
January 29, 2019 at 5:34 amHi Larissa,
January 29, 2019 at 5:39 amAnother 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
Thank you. I only measure once, divide and place. Pretty simple either way and fun to DIY. Thanks for the tip. 😉
January 29, 2019 at 5:49 amI love the farmhouse coat rack, got to make this one!!
January 29, 2019 at 5:53 amYou’re so fun, Janie! 😀

January 29, 2019 at 8:25 amYou are incredible, You do thing that I would never have thought of. Keep up the great work. PS Id like to go thrifting with you our thrift stores don’t have the neat stuff yours do and if they do they want a fortune for them. thanks again
January 29, 2019 at 7:39 amWhat a sweet compliment, Bonnie. Thank you! I’m game to take you along, but do not I play rough when scavenging!! haha…just kidding. 😉
January 29, 2019 at 8:26 amLarissa, as usual you have done a fabulous job! You are so creative! Love reading about all your transformations!
January 29, 2019 at 7:45 amYay!! Thanks so much for the encouraging words, Kim. I’m so happy to hear it.
January 29, 2019 at 8:26 amWe are currently making laundry sorters for ours and our sons bedroom so we would use the sander to help with those! And I would totally do it while drinking coffee out of that mug!
January 29, 2019 at 7:46 amHow fun! That will be handy.
January 29, 2019 at 8:27 amThis is amazing! I would definitely use the sander for this odd tall birdhouse shelf we picked up while thrifting. It’s pretty cheesy looking right now but I can’t wait to repaint it!
January 29, 2019 at 8:12 amThanks! That sounds like a perfect DIY project and fun too! 😀
January 29, 2019 at 8:27 amWhat a beautiful up-cycle! Definitely will be looking at the “ugly stuff “ on thrift store shelves in a whole new way!!!
January 29, 2019 at 8:14 amThat’s the spirit, Michelle! 😀
January 29, 2019 at 8:27 amMy sad dining room table has more Knicks ans scratches than I would like to mention! I would use the sander do give my table new life. Thanks for making beautiful things out of other’s trash! You inspire me to be on the look out for more hidden gems at thrift stores and garage sales!
January 29, 2019 at 8:20 amI know the feeling! 😀 It such a joy for me to share and hear from all of you. Thank you, Karen.
January 29, 2019 at 8:28 amWhat a great idea and I love how it turned out !!!
January 29, 2019 at 8:26 amI’m going to be on the lookout for shelves like this so I can make one for my back entrance. Larissa, I wish we lived closer as we would be the best thrift store searching friends ever !!
They come in so handy for different spaces. We would have a blast!
January 29, 2019 at 8:28 amAwesome re-do of the shelf into a coat rack!
January 29, 2019 at 8:27 amHigh-five from me! 😀 Thank you, Nancy.
January 29, 2019 at 8:29 amGreat idea! Love all of it.
January 29, 2019 at 8:30 amSuch fun to hear. Thanks!
January 29, 2019 at 8:58 amWhat a difference! Such a simple change turned fabulous! I would love to have my own sander to use on so many projects I have collected. I think I would start with the stool my kids use while practicing at our keyboard to start. It definitely needs a redo!!! Thanks so much for the chance to win this awesome giveaway!
January 29, 2019 at 8:39 amThat’s what makes these so fun and doable. I think I’m slightly addicted to hooks! hahaha!
January 29, 2019 at 8:58 amThat looks SOOOO much better! (And functional!)
January 29, 2019 at 8:49 amI love repurposing !
Fantastic! Thank you. You are a gal after my own heart, Melanie.
January 29, 2019 at 8:59 amLove it! Great cover up!
January 29, 2019 at 8:51 amhappy dance!! 😀
January 29, 2019 at 8:59 amGreat job, Larissa. You can always see the potential in everything.
January 29, 2019 at 8:55 amYour kind words mean so much. Thank you, Judy.
January 29, 2019 at 8:59 amYou inspire us with the most wonderful reuse recycle finds.
January 29, 2019 at 8:58 amI enjoy watching and reading your post. Thank you so much
for sharing with us.
How sweet of you to say, Anita. Thank you.
January 29, 2019 at 9:27 amI love the coat/hat/towel racks!! My favorite is the long cabinet door racks. Great idea!
January 29, 2019 at 9:01 amYay! So fun for me to hear. Thanks!
January 29, 2019 at 9:22 amI always love your projects, Larissa! I’m a fan of dentil molding, so I really like the way this looks. Where did you get those hooks? fantastic! If you said, I missed it, sorry. My sander died, so I really do need a new one, thank you for the opportunity to win these great items! I will probably use them on a piece of fence that an elderly friend just gifted me with. I think she wants me to make her a scarecrow. 🙂
January 29, 2019 at 9:17 amYou are the best, Patty! 😀 Me too…I love the term as it makes me giggle. Looks like old wooden teeth! hahaha! I have the links to the brass and black hooks in my post, but here it is too: https://amzn.to/2RWtmTX
January 29, 2019 at 9:25 amI’d love to see your scarecrow.
I love the new coat hooks! Banish the bread, bring on the hooks!!! 😊 I could really go for that super-skinny cupboard door hooks too. Now I know what to do next time I come across a score-of-a-skinny-door! 😊
January 29, 2019 at 9:18 amYour giveaway is FANTASTIC!!! Oh the THINGS that cordless sander and I could do… I have this cute little cupboard that some poor innocent painted… and then gave up and donated …with latex over oil. It needs a small sander, and a lot of sander action! I can picture swigging my coffee while slapping a nice new coat of PRIMER (haha!, NOT latex!) on, and who can’t use a cute tote bag to store their new tools in?! You’re the best! Thanks for this!
Yeah, baby!! 😀 Sounds like a Pinterest fail…haha! Ya never know if you just sanded it back a bit the chippy look make look cool. Have fun!
January 29, 2019 at 9:26 amLove this! The beadboard completes it! Any of these racks would look great in my guest bath for towels! That sander would come in handy for so many things!
January 29, 2019 at 9:23 amI just love that stuff. You can use it most anywhere and adds the texture I adore. You will love this tool set too! 😀
January 29, 2019 at 9:27 amI love your coat racks that you made! So inventive! It would be so cool to have that palm sander to give to my daughter. She just started making signs this past year as gifts to friends and family with scrap wood and it would make it easier to use the palm sander to finish the pieces quicker!
January 29, 2019 at 9:27 amThanks! You are an awesome mama to think of such things. Hugs!
January 29, 2019 at 9:28 amLove, love, Love this !!!!
January 29, 2019 at 9:37 amYou are so fun. Thanks!
January 29, 2019 at 4:25 pmI love how this one came out! I’m always looking for wood things at thrift stores too 🙂
January 29, 2019 at 10:02 amYou are a smart gal. 😉
January 29, 2019 at 4:27 pmI just love watching how you converse a throwaway into something so beautiful. I love it! You got me starting to look at peoples trash for pieces I can redo.
January 29, 2019 at 10:41 amWonderful to hear. Thank you for that and for the giggle! Here’s to #trashure!
January 29, 2019 at 4:38 pmLarissa … I love what you have done with that shelf (one of my favorites). And ~ i have to say that I really love, Love, LOVE the hooks that you used!! Thank you so much for all you you ~ you are an inspiration!
Michele Meacham
January 29, 2019 at 10:51 amSuch fun to hear and for me to share. Thank you, Michele! 😀
January 29, 2019 at 4:30 pmI have a cute little shelf I have been wanting to redo. It came to me with an awful, partial paint job. Thank you for the opportunity to win!
January 29, 2019 at 10:53 amMy pleasure. 🙂
January 29, 2019 at 4:30 pmLarissa,
January 29, 2019 at 11:04 amAs always love your up-cycle! I look forward to reading your blog posts every time one drops in my inbox! Thanks for another great share
You are so sweet, Kelly. Thank you so much!
January 29, 2019 at 4:31 pmThat’s a great transformation! I have a vintage dresser that needs a good sanding. Would 💕 to win!
January 29, 2019 at 11:04 amThanks! Sounds like DIY fun ahead.
January 29, 2019 at 4:31 pmLove the shelf Larissa! I had something similar in mind but switching out the bead board with yardsticks stained with three different stains to make them look older. I have some antique hooks to use that I have picked up when I was picking last summer. Now just to find the time between my other projects to get it done! Thanks for sharing!
January 29, 2019 at 11:07 amWoot! I debated on that as well as I have some broken ones I don’t mind using. I was kinda trying to keep it simple so anyone can do it, but I love that idea too!! I’d love to see it when you’re done.
January 29, 2019 at 4:32 pmThe cupboard door remake is amazing 😊 so simple and so perfect
January 29, 2019 at 11:09 amThanks! Those were such an awesome gift.
January 29, 2019 at 4:32 pmLarissa what a great prize to add to my stash of craft tools. would so love to win
January 29, 2019 at 11:29 amMy pleasure, Janet.
January 29, 2019 at 4:32 pmLOVE IT!
January 29, 2019 at 11:37 amFUNtastic! Thank you.
January 29, 2019 at 4:33 pmGreat for the dog leash! Love the look!
January 29, 2019 at 12:30 pmYes! I was just saying that to my kids too. haha.
January 29, 2019 at 4:33 pmI would use the sander to attempt to build shelves in my room.
January 29, 2019 at 1:17 pmSounds good.
January 29, 2019 at 4:33 pmI have a very narrow attic, meaning I have to slide on my belly to access anything. I thought about screwing some planks to slide across, but I would need the planks to be very smooth so I can pull myself without becoming a pincushion for splinters. This palm sander would be perfect for that.
January 29, 2019 at 1:37 pmOh my goodness…yes! We have similar things here and know what you mean.
January 29, 2019 at 4:33 pmLove the transformation from outdated food shelf to gorgeous coat rack! Your vision always amazes me and can’t wait to see what you’re going to do with those ugly plaques..haha! I could definitely use some power tools as I have several pieces that need makeovers and I’ve got to where it’s hard for me to sand by hand. Thanks for the giveaway and can’t wait to see what you’ve got planned next!
January 29, 2019 at 1:43 pmYou are too cute, Debra! haha. Yes, so fun for me to share and I had a blast with those plaques too. Coming up next! 😀
January 29, 2019 at 4:34 pmLove how you repurpose items & make them pretty & functional
January 29, 2019 at 2:00 pmThank you for saying so, Rebecca. I try. 😉
January 29, 2019 at 4:34 pmEnjoyed the post, I’d use the tools to make a mantle for my fireplace.
January 29, 2019 at 2:13 pmGood to hear. That sounds like a great project.
January 29, 2019 at 4:34 pmArthritis makes sanding hard as many of you readers know so I could really use a sander. I will look for a similar wooden piece to up the use of it. Great job.
January 29, 2019 at 2:37 pmYes, so very much so. You would love this. 🙂
January 29, 2019 at 4:34 pmSo cute! Those hooks are now on my wishlist for the coat rack project I’m scheming from my own entry!
January 29, 2019 at 3:35 pmOoh…sounds like fun! I told the kids I would love to switch out all 99 of ours…eep!
January 29, 2019 at 4:35 pmi have this old mirror frame id use it on and some old window frames be great for it
January 29, 2019 at 3:53 pmSounds good.
January 29, 2019 at 4:35 pmLarissa., Very pretty.
January 29, 2019 at 4:15 pmThank you.
Thank you, Nancy.
January 29, 2019 at 4:35 pmSuch great projects! I love how they turned out! Thank you for sharing the link for the hooks! They are in my shopping cart! Can’t wait to use them on something for the shop! They are perfect, and the price is awesome!
January 29, 2019 at 4:58 pmYou never ceases to amaze me with your talent and eye for details!
Thanks so much, Jeanette. They are my favorite hooks thus far and so handy to use for this and that. Have fun!
January 29, 2019 at 5:06 pmSooooo much better! Great job as always. Love the hooks.
January 29, 2019 at 7:12 pmThanks for saying so, Tracy. 😀
January 30, 2019 at 5:04 amI always enjoy your posts and your creativity! I have a table I am fixing up , thats what I would do with the winnings!
January 29, 2019 at 7:18 pmThat’s wonderful to hear. Thank you, Dale.
January 30, 2019 at 5:05 amThe coat raacacack is so cute and useful. I need one by each door! You truly make me look twice at all the ‘meh’ items at our local thrift shop!
January 29, 2019 at 7:39 pmDon’t we all? haha. With my gang of 6 I have a lot of hooks around here. 😀 I’m so glad you’ve got a new “eye”.
January 30, 2019 at 5:05 amLove this idea, I need to do this!
January 29, 2019 at 8:27 pmYay! That’s the spirit! 😀
January 30, 2019 at 5:06 amLove All the racks. I made a small one w/ a piece of casing trim and some screw-in cup hooks, ’cause that’s what I had to work with. It works great.
January 29, 2019 at 8:28 pmThanks! Yes, they’re a favorite thing of mine to do. By looking at all my past creations you’d think I was a coat rack addict. haha! The scrap ones are my favorite to build too.
January 30, 2019 at 5:06 amIf I won the giveaway, I would use the sander on an old table that needs some love.
January 29, 2019 at 8:38 pmSounds good.
January 30, 2019 at 5:07 amLarissa, you made that shelf look so good and useful now and it also looks so much better as a coat rack, now that you’ve had you way with it! The other two coat racks are just as beautiful!!! I enjoyed watching your You Tube video as well. Thank you for the opportunity to enter you very generous giveaway too! Stay safe and warm!!
January 29, 2019 at 8:42 pmThanks! I am just hoping to inspire others to try. It really is fun. I’m so glad you like my video – it’s work, but hoping to reach others. 🙂
January 30, 2019 at 5:07 amThis giveaway is fantastic! I love your cabinet door coat racks! So simple and so clever! I’m definitely going to have to go to a Habitat Rehab to fine some long narrow ones like those. I love them!
January 29, 2019 at 11:15 pmI wish I could send one to everyone. Thank you for the smile, Kristina. 😀
January 30, 2019 at 5:09 amI have a thrift table just waiting for a makeover!
January 30, 2019 at 4:13 amFun! 😀
January 30, 2019 at 5:10 amWow! 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!
January 30, 2019 at 8:51 amThat’s the spirit, Sandi! I’m so pleased to hear it. Thank you!
January 30, 2019 at 9:19 pmLove the transformation! The hooks are very farmhouse!

January 30, 2019 at 9:20 pmLove 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.
January 30, 2019 at 1:43 pmThey make it so handy to have around.
January 30, 2019 at 9:20 pmLove the makeover! I’ve been wanting a place for towels and something like this would be perfect. The hooks are awesome as well! Thanks for the inspiration.
January 30, 2019 at 2:02 pmIt sure makes it nice to have everything in its place.
January 30, 2019 at 9:21 pmI would use a new sander on an old armoire that is serious need of a new look.
January 30, 2019 at 2:29 pmThat sounds good! 😀
January 30, 2019 at 9:21 pmI love how you used the beadboard to change the look of this dated shelf. The hooks spacing hint is very helpful. Thanks!
January 30, 2019 at 4:24 pmFun! It makes it easier to know how to figure it out.
January 30, 2019 at 9:22 pmLOVE IT!
January 30, 2019 at 5:45 pmYahoo! 😀
January 30, 2019 at 9:22 pmLove it!!! and those books are gorgeous! A palm sander would be an awesome addition to my little tool box. I’ve no idea what my first project would be, but I’m sure it would be out to good use. ❤
January 30, 2019 at 6:11 pmYou will love it for sure. I love mine! 😀
January 30, 2019 at 9:22 pmI recently trash picked some cupboard doors since I always love what you do with them. I can’t wait to get started!

January 30, 2019 at 8:39 pmSounds good! 😀
January 30, 2019 at 9:25 pmI keep going to thrift stores now and just got a miter box and saw and am upcycling some old canvases to farmhouse signs! You do inspire us! keep up the great work! God bless!
January 31, 2019 at 1:00 amOh, how exciting! Having tools in any form is a gateway to a whole new world. Hugs to you!
January 31, 2019 at 6:15 amIdo 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!
January 31, 2019 at 1:11 amThanks so much, Kathy! 😀
January 31, 2019 at 6:15 amCan’t wait till this summer when I get my own shop so I can use some of your ideas. You do a great job.

January 31, 2019 at 1:55 pmFirst 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.
January 31, 2019 at 11:34 amYou are awesome! 😀
January 31, 2019 at 1:56 pmWhat vision! I am nervous to try some things but working on gaining a comfort level with painting. Have made over a couple of small pieces so far and having fun.
January 31, 2019 at 12:28 pmFantastic that you are willing to try. Atta girl! 😀
January 31, 2019 at 1:56 pmI have some wood pieces from an 1822 church that our Heritage Association is restoring. I have some projects in mind and the sander would really come in handy! I get so many great ideas from you!
January 31, 2019 at 3:43 pmThat sounds sweet!
January 31, 2019 at 6:52 pmI have an old tv stand I would like to fix up.
January 31, 2019 at 4:10 pmLove that coat rack, great job. I also need one.
January 31, 2019 at 4:31 pmThank you.
January 31, 2019 at 6:52 pmBeautifully done as usual!
January 31, 2019 at 5:51 pmThank you, Shirley! 😀
January 31, 2019 at 6:52 pmI would use the sander on my dresser I had as a child. It is over 50 years old and really excited to tackle this project. You sure do beautiful work and have such creativity!
January 31, 2019 at 7:06 pmSounds like the perfect project piece. Yay!
January 31, 2019 at 9:02 pmWhat a transformation! Amazing! You are so good with those tools! Hope to win some! Ha!
January 31, 2019 at 9:59 pmThank you, Hanna. 😀
February 1, 2019 at 4:50 amI forgot to tell you what I would do with the tools! I have countless projects to work on. The tools would certainly help make the work easier. I desperately want the brush! Everything is fantastic and would make me very happy!
January 31, 2019 at 10:01 pmAll sounds so good. 😉
