Rustic X Hall Tree - With Some Changes

Submitted by jman11 on Fri, 05/15/2020 - 14:50

This is a great design! I made a few changes to suit our needs: 1. Raised the shoe shelf so shoes can also be kept on the floor 2. Added a few spacer blocks on the shoe shelf to prevent the 1x1 from spinning since there's only enough room for one pocket screw per side. 3. Cut a rabbet in the back of the tall 2x4s to accept the tongue and groove shiplap 4. Used tongue and groove shiplap (pre-painted white from Lowes) 5. Topped with crown molding 6. 6 hooks so everyone has their own hook (although I can see this getting very crowded in the winter) The wife loves it and got me a lot of brownie points right around Mother's Day!
