Whether it’s the week’s veggies,<br />
mounds of spring scarves or children’s<br />
toys, this rack is not only a practical<br />
way to add extra storage space,<br />
but will make a feature out of your<br />
goodies.<br />
Extra storage space never goes unwanted and when<br />
it adds a little pizzazz to an empty wall, it’s all the more<br />
welcome. This handy rack put together by BUCO is easy<br />
to assemble and will have those loose items lying around<br />
sorted in no time.<br />
You will need<br />
• 1 bundle of 1,2m length knotty pine planks. The<br />
bundles can be bought pre-packed at BUCO. For<br />
this project, you will require seven planks, but it can<br />
be widened by using more, depending on your<br />
preference.<br />
• 2 wood cleats, cut the width of the pine planks that<br />
have been assembled.<br />
• 1 screw and wall plug for hanging up the rack.<br />
• 4 screws for attaching the cleats.<br />
• 3 large cup hooks.<br />
• Wood glue.<br />
• Paint in your choice of colour.<br />
• Set of three baskets, available from BUCO.<br />

How to<br />
1. Paint the planks in a colour of your choice.<br />
2. Once they have dried, put a thin strip of glue on the planks where they<br />
clip into each other and clip all the planks in place. Allow the glue to dry.<br />
3. Screw the cleats onto the back of the board to keep it sturdy.<br />
4. Mark the board where the cup hooks must be screwed in by measuring<br />
evenly spaced spots.<br />
5. Drill a hole into the wall where you wish to hang the board and put in the<br />
wall plug and screw. Hang up the board followed by the baskets.<br />
