There's nothing extraordinary about a coat rack or hall tree. They're simply stands with handles or ledges that hold coats, jackets, and hats. Create your own unique coat rack using repurposed items.
This not only gives you a great way to recycle something you're not using anymore, but lets you use your crafting talents to create a completely new piece that guests will ask about.
