Screw the coat rack onto the wall. (use drywall anchors, or screw into studs, locating them with a stud finder)
I put my mitten rack onto a boot tray to protect the floor.

The great thing about making something from another piece of furniture, is that it already has a finish on it. No need to paint or stain.

This whole project only took me about an hour. Now we have nice dry mittens and boots. This project was free, and saved something from ending up in the landfill. For extra bonus points, you could make the dowels on the coat rack shorter, and put a shelf on top, to hold more stuff.
