{diy: kitchen fork hooks}

Today's post is a fun little project I whipped up in no time at all, and it adds a little bit of funky flair to your kitchen. I got the idea of using forks as hooks from JJEvansenArt on etsy, but rather than ordering a pre-made fork rack, I thought it would be fun (and cheaper!) to make my own.


What you'll need:
Old forks
Pliers
Nails
Hammer

First, by hand or with the pliers, bend the fork into a curved hook shape.


Then use the pliers to bend the two inside tines criss-crossed toward the two outside tines. This will make a space in the middle of the tines so you can effectively hang your forks.


When finished, hang your forks directly on wall, or mount on a rack, by nailing them through the space in the center of the tines. Hang mugs, measuring cups, aprons, coats, etc!



Enjoy your new creation!
