Pottery Barn Inspired Mug Rack (Modular)

January 4, 2016

Mug Rack by Sawdust 2 StitchesHey  friends,  I am sure  that many of you have organization on the brain.  I am a firm believer that you can create a organized space, AND make it beautiful at the same time.  In fact all of the pieces in my  home are aimed to be decorative while still serving a very useful purpose.  These new kitchen racks are no exception!  This Pottery Barn Inspired Mug Rack is  intended to clear up some cupboard space and use these in the dining room and or kitchen!Modular Kitchen Shelving by Sawdust 2 stitches

How t0:  Pottery Barn Inspired Mug Rack 

Materials Used:

  • (2) 1×6″ 8′ Board
  • (1) 1×2″  8′ Board
  • (2) 1/2″ x 36″ Dowel  Rod
  • (9) “s” Hooks
  • (5) Label Holders
  •  18 gauge finish nails
  • Wood Glue

Tools Suggested:

  • Miter Saw
  • Table Saw
  • Nailer
  • Drill

Step 1. Drill Dowel Holes

Before assembling frame pre-drill holes for dowel rods in the 1″x 6″x 25 1/2″ boards. Use a 1/2″ bit and drill 3/8″ deep. You will need to make a mirror copy on to the remaining 1″x 6″x 25 1/2″ board.

Step 2. Frame

Apply a small amount of wood glue into the pre-drilled holes for the dowel rods. Fit both dowel rods into their corresponding 1/2″ holes. Join both 25 1/2″ and 24″ 1×6″ boards using wood glue and 2 inch, 16 gauge finishing nails. This will form a 25 1/2″ square.

Meet Corey

Hi everyone, my name is Corey, and I have a problem. I can’t leave well enough alone… The best therapy usually involves a variety of power tools. So, in the few “spare” moments I am not entertaining my two beautiful, rambunctious, boys, I can typically be found hunched over a sewing machine and/or covered in sawdust. All in the efforts to create a perfect balance of aesthetics and practicality in our home.
