I’m sure a lot of you out there have a old CD or DVD rack lying around and you probably want to toss it. At least that’s what I was about to do with mine. I moved all my CDs and DVDs into a closed cabinet and the thought of having a open exposed case is just not what most people want these days. So, why not reuse it, and better yet make it functional again. That was my thought process!
So, I decided to take old scrap wood and cut it to size to make flat shelf’s for each section. I also decided I would reuse it for a Spray Paint rack. I plan to store it in my garage and its perfect because it fits so many cans and they are all displayed easily.
So here is the before; just a boring old rack.
Since this would display spray paint I figured I’d give it a new color. And of course that color would be Teal!
I cut the wood pieces to fit the shelf and then stained them to give it a little more interest.
I gathered up all my spray paint and that’s it! Have you re-used a CD/DVD rack?
Enjoy!

Did you try putting books on the shelves?
No, but you definitely can, especially small books. Good idea!
This is a great upcycle! There are so many old CD racks being thrown away these days! Thanks for the inspiration 🙂
