Mille Cat Coat Rack - Grey

Mille is a wall coat rack cut in the shape of a curled-up cat, with a narrow shelf running across its middle and four round pegs set along the curve beneath. The printed design gives the cat a friendly face, pointed ears, a patch around one eye, dotted cheeks, big spots across its grey body and a band of stripes over its shoulders. It is made from MDF with a printed finish and measures 36cm long, 8cm wide and 31cm tall, so it sits comfortably on the wall of even a small bedroom without crowding it. At 0.87KG it is a light piece for the work it does.

This is storage for a child's room, nursery or playroom, where it gives coats, dressing gowns, school bags and hats a place of their own instead of the floor. The four pegs take the everyday things, and the shelf over them suits a few slim books, a small soft toy or a framed photograph. In a hallway it makes a natural spot for a child's own coat and bag beside the grown-ups' hooks, and the open ring under the shelf keeps the whole piece looking light on the wall. Fix it at a height your child can reach and finding a coat in the morning becomes their job rather than yours.

The construction is simple: a shaped MDF panel with the shelf and the pegs fixed to its front, and the illustration printed straight onto the surface. MDF gives a smooth, even face to print on, which suits a crisp illustrated design. It hangs on the wall, and the maker's assembly instructions come as a PDF download. The styling props shown are not included. For the best look, keep the shelf fairly clear so the cat's face stays in view, and let a coat or two hang from the pegs rather than a crowd of them.
