Hey there! We hope you all had a wonderful Easter with your families! We had to move our annual Easter egg hunt indoors because we were hit with flash floods all day but that didn’t put a damper on our hunt! We even got a very forced picture of the youngest generation in the family! 17 little munchkins hunting for eggs in one house….you can imagine how crazy that was;)
Amidst the craziness, I managed to squeeze in a quick project that I have actually been needing badly!
We don’t have a spot in our master bath for hand towels and I don’t like having them lay on the counter. They don’t dry well and they just look so cute hanging;) I saw this as an opportunity to shanty something up and here’s how I made two for $10!
I started with a 1×4 furring strip (about $1.50 at your local hardware store). If you have scraps that’s great and it will save you a little dough. I cut 8 pieces at 8.5″.
I used my pal Kreg to attach the pieces together. If you don’t have one, you can nail 1×2’s from the back but they will sit further out from the wall.
Just a pic of the pocket holes.
After I attached the boards together (4 boards each) I sanded them down on the edges and the front.
I then followed up with one coat of Rust-Oleum Dark Walnut stain🙂
I chose these little silver hooks that I purchased at Lowe’s for about $3.50 each. I attached them at the top of the second board from the bottom.
Now for a little fun:)
I have this Waverly fabric left over, from my master bedroom, that I love! I decided to tie it into my bathroom with a few flat-rolled rosettes. You can click HERE for the tutorial:)
I just hot glued them onto each board and added a couple of hand towels:)
This project will take you about an hour and cost you about $10 for 2! That’s my kind of project:) If you love it, I would LOVE pins below:) Thanks so much and have a great week! ~Ashley
