Frugal "Coat Rack"

A few months back, I decided that I had my fill with our coat rack center. It had a metal bar for coats, two bottom shelves and a top shelf. The idea was to have a place for guests to hang their coats. But in the end, it just turned out to be a clutter center! We each would have 3-4 coats hanging up, along with sweatshirts. And by the time we were done, there wasn't any room for guest coats! :) So I decided it was time to simplify!

While in Michael's craft store one day, I found these cute heart hooks on clearance for $.50 each. I knew we'd have paint left over from making Papa's birdhouse so I wouldn't have to buy any extras. I had also found this "Love" sign on discount and I loved the color scheme. So I tried to match up the hearts with it.

For about $5 for the hooks and sign, I don't think it turned out too bad! It also adds a nice little splash of color to the room! And we each have our own little personal hook. I'm also hoping that I can somehow use it to help Nathan learn his colors.

A big "Thank You" to my sweet husband for taking the time to hang these up last night. Can you believe he TAPED the Bears game just so he could help! :)
