My belts were hung on some over-door hooks on the back of our closet door but the hooks had become a hot mess. Besides the fact that I have more belts than hooks, there were also Grant's ties and a hat hung there and it's where I hang items that need to be ironed (until there are enough to make getting out the ironing board worth it). It was a pain trying to find or get a particular belt so I knew I needed a better solution.
I took a strip of pallet wood ...
... and gave it a quick coat of white paint.
Then I picked up some 1-inch nails from the dollar store and started banging them in, while using the belt buckles to work out roughly where I wanted them. Big buckles got two nails each while small ones were fine with just one.
Here are the nails - as you can see it's not a perfectly precise line but they work fine
I decided to hang it onto the blank wall behind the door of our closet.
You can see a tiny bit of the wall to the right ...
... and here it is with the belt hanger up.
It works great!
