Shabby Coat Rack

Remember those plastic gold candle wall sconces? I had a little fun with them today.

Now they have a new look!

I used the two candle sconces ($4) the thrift store cutting board ($3) and a 4x4 post (5.50)

I screwed the cutting board into the bottom of the post.

Then glued the candle sconces on with some epoxy.



Primed and painted with black spray paint. Then sanded the edges.
