- Line up the two pieces of the fence post. Place a paint stick on both ends of fence boards. The paint stick should cross the seam of the two fence posts.
- Use ½ screws to faster the paint sticks to the boards. The two fence posts are now held together.
- Lay out a plastic table cloth and put boards and coat hooks in the center. Paint the wood and the hooks, let dry completely before assembling.
- One dry place hooks and jars on boards to determine where you would like them. Use a pencil to mark where screws will go. Predrill holes for easier assembly.
- Use half-inch screws to attach coat hooks and hose clamps. When attacking hose clamps drill the screw through the slots into the board.
- Slip mason jars into hose clamps. Tighten the hose clamps with a flathead screwdriver.
