DIY Scarf Hanger

As you can see I didn't get a chance to schedule a show & tell post this week so I have a quick and easy DIY project to share instead. 

First of all let me apologize for the poor quality of these photos. It has become abundantly clear to me that to make this blog the best that it can be I need to invest in a better camera! All I have right now is my iPhone and I am really not happy with the quality of these shots.

Anyway on with the project! I suppose this is really more of a re-purpose than a DIY. I have a weakness for vintage Vera scarfs and have been searching for a way to display them. I got this idea after seeing napkins stored in a similar way on Pintrest. All you need is an old miniature spoon rack.

I picked this rack up at Value Village for $3. I had Dan sand the inside of all the little spoon slots and then hang it on our bedroom wall. Sanding the spoon slots is a little tedious but important so there's no rough spots to snag your scarves.

Then I simple folded my scarfs in half and tucked them into the spoon slots. They are the perfect size to hold the scarves snugly. Here's what the finished project looks like on my wall.

I think I'll probably end up painting the rack white but to Dan painting any sort of wood is sacrilegious (he's a carpenter) so I'll have to do it when he's not around!

What a great idea! I have an abundance of scarves and currently have them all exploding off a rack on the back of my bedroom door. At this point there are so many of them that they literally fall off when I open or close the damn door. I figure that just means I need a better organizer, not that I need to purge. How could I purge anyway. They're all my babies! haha.
