HGTV stars and cousins Anthony Carrino and John Colaneri are visiting Rach to show off inexpensive and classy home improvements you can easily do yourself!

Project 1: DIY Antiqued Ladder Bookshelf

The cousins simply take a brand-new plain wooden ladder and “antique” it by painting and applying a blowtorch to get a bubbly paint effect. Hang on the wall and add your books!

Tip: Make sure you use a level when hanging your ladder so that your bookshelf will be straight and your books won’t fall off!

Project 2: DIY Hanging Wine Glass Rack

The guys show you how to take a discarded wooded shipping pallet and build a beautiful hanging wood wine glass rack!

Tip: Clean pallets with a power washer before building with them.

Project 3: DIY Mirrored Backsplash

Looking for more light in your kitchen? Try this simple and easy trick from the cousins. Just glue or tape up a mirrored acrylic panel. Can’t get easier than that!
