Getting Crafty... DIY Caribou Coat Rack


I found these funky caribou head hooks at a decor store in Montreal and thought they would make a cool coat rack.



So I asked my handy wood-working father for some help....

He helped me sand down and varnish a board that came from one of his fallen down walnut trees (I wanted something rustic looking and I thought that the bark on this piece of wood was a perfect match).
Then we mounted the little caribou heads, and voilĂ  a unique homemade coat rack!



 I think it turned out pretty well, if I do say so myself ; )
