Step by step instructions to easily build this project yourself

It’s Winter here in Australia which means Al and I will be wearing our boots all day - everyday. To celebrate Blundstone’s 150th birthday we thought we’d create a boot & coat rack, for near our front door.

This DIY project is a really practical item for our home here on the farm in Victoria as it gets quite wet here and we are constantly treading grass and sawdust from the workshop to our house.

We’ve created a few variations of this design because every home is different and you can purchase the detailed step-by-step instructions which include great woodworking tips for beginner furniture makers.
