We have since added another row for kid coats – lower, with the hooks staggered, and with the kind of hooks you used. They HATE them – everything falls off them. I’m going to have to get more hooks like what I have on the upper rack.

We live in a camper at the present time and last winter the doorway was cold and the floor around the door was always wet and icy. Mr. D solved that this year by adding a small mudroom all constructed of scrap lumber picked up from the dump. This small room also holds our refrigerator. The heat given off the ‘fridge keeps the temp in there above freezing and we store all our coats and boots and other large items out there. It also makes a great place to keep produce that needs cool storage. Our coat rack actually looks a lot like yours. He did not make a boot rack, but with just the two of us we just use a boot tray.

I also loved the shower curtain idea. I have tried to wash shower curtains before with little success, but I don’t think I’ve ever tried baking soda or washing with towels.

Thanks for sharing!
Mrs. D
